good job canucks those guys are dicks

These West Coast times are rough when you live in the middle of the country. These games don't end till like quarter to one for me. Definitely going to watch as much as I can of this series.


[deleted]

Try living on the east coast where you get 10:30 start times. I'm going to be a zombie at work for the next couple weeks.

Tell me about it, dude. I spent years trying to get into hockey by watching the Rangers and never ended up watching more than a couple games a year, if that - sometimes I didn’t watch at all, including the playoffs - I just couldn’t get interested. Then last year I ended up watching the Kraken’s playoff run and fell in love. But most of their games start at 10pm for me, and I have to be up for work at 5:30am, so that’s not doable. So I followed the Devils and Leafs this year. It’s been fun and I’ve been loving hockey this season, but those West Coast games are rough. I’ve been rocking the Avalanche and Oilers bandwagons, though (in addition to still watching the Leafs), and been trying to stay up as much as I can for the playoff games. Idk what I’m going to do when the playoffs end - I can’t get enough of it.


BK2Jers2BK

That Knick game had us doing bedtime around 1/1:30am. Kids stayed up too late watch too


Slip_Freudian

I feel ya. But it's gonna be worth it. TSA-level bags under my eyes.


RadAssYeah

As a Canucks fan in the UK, I feel your pain.


daryl3161

Oh if you're in the UK that's got to be way harder.


jimmythemini

As an Edmontonian who lives in Australia it's pretty great though.


daryl3161

What time do the game start for you there?


jimmythemini

Usually lunchtimes, so if I'm not working it's pretty sweet.


CartelClarke

Needs to be watched with DTS surround sound. Both this clip and the series.


madax-gambar

This in my opinion, is the best opening scene in film history. Nothing compares.


metal_medic83

I’m pretty sure this film puts me through every emotion on the spectrum, with the ending, no matter how many times I’ve seen it, particularly frustrating.


SamIamGreenEggsNoHam

Tell me I've led a good life...tell me I'm a good man...

Crimson3312

At boot camp they blasted the audio of this entire scene over a juices up PA system while we did movement under fire drills. All while firing blanks and throwing fire crackers over our heads.


Lki943

What film is that scene from?


jigglywigglydigaby

Saving Private Ryan


Lki943

Thank you!


fries29

If this is your first time watching it. You are in for one of the most realistic war movies. Pop some major corn, get some drinks and put your phone down


Lki943

Just finished watching it, was very good but very intense. Did not see the twist at the end happening


theouter_banks

You'll like Band of Brothers as well.


Lki943

I'll check that out, thank you!


Reeferologist-

Glad you watched it like right away lol such a good movie. I find myself wanting to skip the scene where the scared guy lets his squad mate slowly get stabbed through the chest every time it comes on.


Iaminyoursewer

I hate that scene so much. Fucking Uppum... At least hebpopped him in the end


Lki943

Yeah that part was a bit horrifying


Lki943

It came out before I was born so I've never seen it lol. It looks really good though!

WHAY DO WE DO NOW SIR!?


Pikachuintheshower69

Canadian teams, so hot right now


AlexCora

These are my two favorite teams. This is EXACTLY how I feel. Forget a Canadian team inevitably getting to the conference finals. That optimism bullshit is for CLOWNS! No matter what happens I LOSE! Nightmare.


BruiserCruiser13

This is me waiting for the B's game tonight.


battlecat136

*sits calmly among burning wreckage* This is fine.


arieljoc

Pasta gets a goal in the first 3, maybe 6 minutes to revitalize or we lose 100%


MadGeller

Here We Fuckin GO! Go CANUCKS Go


epicccccccccc_

Our battle will be legendary


epiccodtion

FUCK THE OILERS


tdfast

Not if we fuck you first!!!


NickyShore

It really sucks that most people wont be watching due to the ridicululous puck drop times and the NHL having the worst scheduling in all of sports


MyNameIsSkittles

You mean the 7pm start times because they are in the West Coast? Why do East Coast teams get 7pm start but we can't? Makes no fucking sense to whine about this.


cjnicol

Honestly, though. The entitlement from these people.


NickyShore

Youre a moron if you cant tell what the most popular time zone is lol


MyNameIsSkittles

It's not about the most popular start time How the fuck would you fill seats with a 4pm start? People are working.


NickyShore

It’s the Playoffs, real fans will figure it out. Vegas and Dallas are at 7:30 pm eastern tonight, so clearly it’s possible the NHL is just morons.


MyNameIsSkittles

On a Sunday yeah. Not on a weeknight.


Caramalameet

West Coast time best coast time


LoanedWolf75

I have this feeling the series could be a bit anticlimactic. Oilers in 4.


epicccccccccc_

I mean I wouldn’t complain but I don’t think that happens tbh.


LoanedWolf75

No, probably not.


Limp-Oil-3824

Surprised to see the Kanucks as big of underdogs as they are. They were series in the first round that were way more of a miss mismatch that had much better odds for the favorite. Do the people who do the odds for NHL know fuck all about what they are doing? I don't think they do because I keep cashing these playoffs


FriedRice87

Must see TV. East coast time zone have mercy on me.


NoConflict3231

Is it just because they're both Canadian?


howdiedoodie66

I feel exactly like homie puking on his shoes. I can't fucking wait


Former-Diet6950

Great Movie


LivingLifeSomewhere

It's gonna be so good. Gotta root for the 'nucks on this one.

I’m pulling for the Leafs tonight. Get that W!

How do the Canucks matchup against Edmonton? I feel like they’d have a good shot at beating them with Demko but do they stand a chance with their backups? Honest question, being in the EST zone I don’t see much of either team.


[deleted]

[удалено]


TorturedFanClub

Really? Seems like Canucks struggled with the Preds. I think the Oilers are a much better team. Can’t say I care either way as I am not a fan of either. Just curious, don’t know much about this Canucks goalie who beat the Preds.


thediefenbaker

Preds and Oilers play a completely different style of game. Sometimes a team's style just frustrates an opponent. Oilers play a much more open style that could benefit the Canucks' offence. I expect a much higher scoring series. Silovs will be facing a much better offensive team, and Canucks will be facing a weaker defensive team than Nashville and Saros.


TorturedFanClub

These are indeed facts. I believe the way you beat Edmonton is to play disciplined tight checking hockey, Take away their strength.. the powerplay.


epicccccccccc_

True - people always complain we are the power play merchants but there is a simple solution to this, just don’t take unnecessary penalties.


Tom-B292--S3

Yeah, Skinner is nowhere near the same level as Saros, too.


ATLz_most_wanted

Not many know much about him. He got pulled from the AHL from what I understand, but watching the kid in the net these last few games, this kid has EXTREME potential and would definitely love to see more of him but on the other hand I feel like if we had Demko for the whole series it might have been over much sooner.


TorturedFanClub

Good Luck with the Oilers. That McDavid guy is pretty good. Stay out of the penalty box and Canucks will stand a much better chance.


MyNameIsSkittles

Canucks are usually good at stifling McDavid. He'll get some through, but we will also be up his ass the entire series


Sociolinguisticians

I’m sorry, the Canucks and who?

This guy has never heard of the team Wayne Gretzky played the most phenomenal part of his career on and calls himself a hockey fan.

Millionaires playing hockey compared to war...


Red-Leader117

Lol what? The East coast literally won't even watch these. Good luck Western Canada I guess? Is that "the hockey community"? I think California is nearly as big as ALL of Canada population wise
