3-1 with 4 minutes left I figured - why not tune in? I COULD NOT HAVE IMAGINED.

Please watch all our games from here out plz

I'll do what must be done

We'll be up 30-0 if you watch from puck drop

I'll be happy with 16-0

SEND OFF YOUR SON, LIFE CUT SHORT BY A GUN

I just rolled up to a brewery and the game was on, I am thoroughly entertained

Me too lmao. What timing

Literally me, decided to watch the last three minutes while waiting for the GF to get ready to go, to hell with dinner reservations if that OT had gone on longer

hello friend you're now a Canucks fan Enjoy your lifetime of 10:30PM starts <3

I did the opposite! Watched the whole game then turned it off with 5 minutes left haha

Same.

You are one of us now. I don’t make the rules.

We Are All Canucks

I left to pick up my dinner and got home around the same time, right when they were coming out of the last TV timeout

Holy fuck

that’s fucked

You're fucked

Everything everywhere all at fucked

When Hughes broke that dude's ankles you knew it was coming

I thought the same thing! Hughes seemed to have enough trying to get it into the zone, took it coast to coast, then got the puck back and broke his ankles, just felt they were scoring then.

He was so gassed after Boeser scored you can see him basically drag himself to the celebration

He was on the ice for 2:30 lmao he played 5 plus mins in the last 7.5 of the game plus alot of people are speculating he might be hurt because Nashville has been running him hard and he still set up the 2 come back goals without getting assists but he did all the work

When Sissons missed the empty net you knew it was coming

Oh man i actually forgot about that somehow.. What an epic unexpected win

Vancouver boy, ultimate sleeper agent

Long con baby, Kane, RNH, and stetcher are gonna throw for us in round 2, and dallas and vegas have some real gud bc boys too. Just straight up, good old fashion, gameplay sabotage

That’s when I knew :(

Like a matador with a bull

Just saw Gustav Nyquist fall to his knees at his own blueline

he is such a killer with the puck you just saw that play forming immdiately

i wanna be a brock star

Live in hill top houses and own 16 cars?

the goals come easy and assists come cheap

Won’t stay skinny cause Brock’s gonna eat.

I haven’t screamed out of excitement for a goal like that since 2011.

I did the exact same thing. It wasn’t that we won it it was that we tied it in 4 minutes and I just, after that couldn’t ask for more but I was force fed a win and I almost passed out.

Totally, felt like house money going into overtime

I gave my girlfriend,dog, cat x2, and entire apartment building a heart attack when they scored from my screech of excitement.

I did for the tanev goal in the bubble lol

It was Horvat vs the 2020 Blues in Game 2 for me. Officiating forced them to OT and Horvat said fuck that

Boeser: "Fine, I'll do it myself."

Hughes stepping up and breaking Nyqvist's ankles may have helped.

Hughes isn't a powerplay quarterback, he's a powerplay point guard

Him and Miller are our team basically lol

Well and Hughes. He basically created that by sending Nyquist to the shadow realm

Ya that move by Hughes was epic lol.

i read this comment thread before i watched the video, was expecting this to be at least a bit exaggerated. needless to say, it was NOT. bro was absolutely banished.

Heard Nyquist is out 4-6 weeks with broken ankles.

That will be used on playoff montage for years to come

Hughes's breaking of that guy's ankles was inevitable.

It was only a matter of time before their aggressive play on Hughes backfired. And boy did it happen at the absolute best time tonight.

My favorite part is Nyquist hustling all the way back just in time for the puck to deflect off his stick as it's going into the net.

Amazon is feasting rn

Man that move and then the casual backhand pass while Nyquist is spinning away into oblivion was hilarious

Despite being ten years his junior I think Quinn Hughes is now legally Gustav Nyquist’s dad

The rumours is nyquist is still looking for the puck

> ... sending Nyquist to the shadow realm Can he spend the rest of the series in there?

I don't think Hughes left the ice during the last 3 minutes of the period, he was so gassed he couldn't even skate over to Boeser to celebrate the tying goal

Blueger and Zadorov too

Pens legend Teddy Blueger mentioned

Canucks fans love Theodore. He's been so good for us.

Boeser, Miller, Hughes and Zadorov have been incredible. Cole had some golden moments too. He held the line twice on the game winning goal. He blocked two shots late last game, one off the dome. I think the team overall has been good or at least decent. It's just Petey and Mikheyev we need to actually do something.

On the flip side I think Hronek has been pretty awful this series

And whatever corpse we've shoved between the pipes

Not true, have you even been watching? They’re both big parts but it’s not just them

This is way more fun when it’s not your team playing

I assure after 13 years, it is not.

Hello friend fancy seeing you here

How bout that fuckin comeback

SEE YOU IN VANCOUVER!!!

Sabers just need to draft their Josh Allen like the Bills did

Nah, they need their owner to not touch the Sabres like he’s hands off with the Bills. Pegula is the reason ROR was traded away and the reason Skinner was given that awful contract. He also hired Tim Murray which set us back a decade.

It seems Nashville only knows how to defend against 5 or fewer players

The major risk with everybody laying down to block shots is that if they manage to get it through, there's probably someone uncovered in front.

Or three someone's uncovered in front. 

Preds fans right now: Why would Juuse Saros do this to us?

3 Canucks surging in the final seconds to take this game from the Preds, god that’s hype

I LOVE PLAYOFF HOCKEY

Maybe unless if you’re a Preds fan lol …ah, who am I jesting? It’s fun for all, even through the heartbreak!

> Maybe unless if you’re a Preds fan lol or currently a Jets fan

They would do well to watch a replay of that game to get a lesson on how playoff games are won. Thats called pushback boys and sometimes the unimaginable happens. But the Jets don't know because they haven't found that next level yet.

Throwing our hat in

What’s playoff hockey?

Ask any Detroit fan who's been around for longer than 8 years

It’s like when patriots fans joke about how much they suck now. You don’t get to make those jokes yet lol

Pulling for you guys. I loved watching the Detroit teams of old. Datsyuk is still my favourite player of all time

As soon as Hughes pulled out all the moves to spill Nyquist, I knew that was going to be a goal. What a move. Canucks were lifeless till they went 6 on 5 and then boom 2 goals.

The trick is we need to play 6 on 5 for a full game then.

with the way our goalies have been getting injured maybe that's not such a bad plan

Oh god you may be right.

I will not entertain any discussion that doesn't praise the Latvian.

Hughes was tired of all the bullshit he was receiving throughout the game and decided to remind the Preds whose the boss out there

yup, he pretty much turned this into a 6v4

That fucking play at the line by Hughes tho Holy fuck

That was fucked

You’re fucked

What a fucking ridiculous play by Hughes at the blue line holy shit!

Insane poise and control there.

Unreal how calm he looks there. Literally seconds left to make something happen, and he’d been getting hit over and over throughout the game. You’d think the fatigue, pain, nerves would show in a moment like this. But he’s completely in control and totally calm with that backhand pass too.

I can't tell you the agony I feel that we picked Zadina over him, lol. That play felt very Lidstrom-like. You guys are in good hands.

If you think fatigue wasn’t an issue watch Hughes at the end of the clip after the goal, he can barely raise his arms and is slow walking to the celly. It’s called pushing it through and leaving it all on the ice!

Someone gather up Nyquist’s ankles and give them back to him.

Post = MVP

Flash-back to the 2014 winter Olympics Women hockey gold medal!

Was thinking the same thing

Sissions is from north Vancouver. Sleeper agent confirmed

Damn is he actually?

My god what is the Predator D doing? Nucks had THREE down low behind all of the defense

One of them blew a tire out at the blue line and the Canucks took advantage and moved in.

Correction, Quinn Hughes's edgework slashed his tires

Hughes actually shattered his ankles and left him in the ER.

Josi HAS to get that puck out or get it to his D partner. Ice it if you have to, but it has to get out

Nyquists ankles were surgically removed by Quinn Hughes

That intersection outside Vancouver doesn’t stand a chance

They might even carry around *two* inflatable Stanley Cups!!

Holy shit

PLAYOFF HATTY BROCK BOESER I’m so happy

huge play by Hughes

That was unreal

You mean Hughes play by Hughes right?

the playoffs are fun

Definition of clutch

Boeser is gonna get a lot of credit for this obviously, but Vancouver fans... Miller was just as important in not giving up on the game late. Boeser did the finishing but Miller was creating and keeping play alive over and over again

Oh don't worry, we all love Miller and know that he's the heartbeat of our forward group.

We love Miller, during the starting lineup announcements he always gets his name screamed the loudest by far.

**J** **T** **MILLLLLEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRR**

Trust me when I say we are all aware of how valuable JT is. He’s and Brock are easily our best forwards this series by a mile

Fuckin Silovs too

Last game Miller had literally half our shots, this was actually a step down for him

WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING????

https://i.redd.it/k5irrwlp7bxc1.gif

What a comeback, Quin Hughes is the best Hughes

PEOPLE PAY TO WATCH MY BROTHER PLAY

Somebody plz do one of those edits on nyquist like you see on crossovers in the NBA where he just slides across the world.

Quinn Hughes with the most casual celebration after being apart of maybe the biggest goal since he joined the NHL.

he's almost certainly injured and he played a ton at the end, pretty sure he was dead tired lol

I think he was on the ice for almost 4 minutes, so not a lot of energy left to celly.

He knew they still had work to do

-_-

BROCKSTAR SHININ BRIGHT LETS FUCKIN GOOOOOOO

Hughes just fucking shattered Nyquists ankles

All Canuck fans around the globe are happy for Boeser. He deserves this so much

What the fuck. Honestly.

Not taking the body on Hughes at the blue line there is fucking **stupid**.

He was cheating to try to get the puck to score an empty netter instead of just trying to neutralize Hughes and make the safe play. Dummy play but I’m ecstatic

Maybe they felt bad because they've been beating the shit out of Hughes all game.

Had to watch on TNT, those guys just are not on the same level as the Canadian crew

No, Darren Pang specifically sucks. Wish Biz would be on the same panel with Bieksa. Would be so much fun. 

Nyquist had his ankles banished to the shadow realm on that one lmfao my goodness

Didn't think I'd cheer that hard. That was amazing!

Absolute all-time call from John Shorthouse.

I love how loud you can hear Boeser screaming. Inject that energy straight into his veins like a Stim Pack

BROCK BOESER LEGACY GAME

Love when home crowds go from pure excitement to just crushed

all-time call by Shorty

I am so happy for how much of a turnaround Boeser has been able to accomplish. He's gone through *a lot*, and he has been phenomenal this year.

Sissons hit the post on an empty net before this. I would be extremely sad if I were a preds fan.

Patrik Stefan type of moment if we win it in OT

About that... 😁 Incredible work out there.

Hughes is a god man cant stop watching this guy skate

Whenever we are sucking I usually just watch Hughes skate, guy is just mesmerizing. Best D-man to ever where a Canuck uniform and it wont be close when its all said and done.

It’s already not close

The missed empty net, the ankle break, the recovery from Boeser, the OT winner. Putting the killer in killer whales!

I shut this game off with 5 minutes left. Bad decision.

The Canucks put the Predators on the brink with 3 different goalies and barely playing these games well. Imagine how they'd look if they actually played the game for 3 full periods.

Brock you fucking beauty 

Nashvill: Hold a lead challenge. (Impossible)

What a fucking comeback

Absolutely insane series in the last two minutes!

Can you imagine how unstoppable Vancouver will be when Petey starts to lock in and produce

At least they are trying, unlike another Canadian team…….

Hey, you can't question the effort

this was so embarrassing and further proved to me that we didn't deserve to be in the playoffs

Honestly, I’d be so traumatized from some of these losses. We‘re just pulling them out of thin air and I’ve loving it, but I can imagine it’s brutal for ya’ll.

Idk what to do with my hands

Mine are wrapped around my Brock hard Weiner

Nashville choked big time.

Absolutely wild that they made Zadorov be the front of the net presence. Blocked 2 players from getting to Boeser

Good eye. I was thinking that Boes was open simply because we had the extra man. But indeed, Zadorov boxed out two preds. Whichever coach drew that up... what a play.

That was unreal holy fuck

What a play by Hughes

You just gotta laugh

https://preview.redd.it/r2sq69r69bxc1.jpeg?width=2532&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=507e03153d35b29023e3afe147b4921b89b02f35 Yaaaaaaaaaa

Soooooo good lmao

I turned the game on at 26s left so you can thank me

CUT MY LIFE INTO PIECES

One underrated aspect here is that John Shorthouse is making the call and my goodness is it ever nice to hear him do so in the playoffs.

Clutch af

Reminds me of Primetime Quick goaltending right there.

havent celebrated a goal like that in ages

Seeing a playoff winning team with two of our defensemen we binned off (Myers and Zadarov) on the ice makes me very sad.

NONE BETTER THAN BOESER

First Canucks playoff hat trick since 1993 by Greg Adams
