Do you think a season of 82 games was going to be all highs with no lows? A few losses completely rattled this entire fanbase when we’ve been absolute dog shit for 10 years prior. I truly don’t get it, help me understand this line of thinking where the team is going to be perfect every single game.
You guys get way too caught up in your emotions of the highs to the lows and act as if losing a game dictates how the season will play out - and this goes for when they were winning so much too.
Bruins are 4-4-1 L10.
Colorado is 5-4-1 L10.
Jets are 4-5-1 L10.
Not sure why those teams are even bothering to play anymore, they’re obviously cooked too.

Wow - had to check as soon as i saw what appeared to be a first half football score here..........Def need to lay off the refs as we don't wanna get that rep........not gonna help at all.

I was at a kids birthday party and had to go for a walk after the 5 goals in 4 minutes fiasco. I was gonna be teaching the kids new words
In my opinion the most egregious call by the refs was the initial call of a goal on a “goal” the replay clearly showed did not go in.
In order to call it a goal on the ice, the referee must witness the goal. The refs just saw the puck in the net and either assumed it was a goal or they outright fixed the call.

Can we just take a minute and appreciate JT Millers game today? Dude went nuclear, and I can't wait to see him in the playoffs properly for the first time as a Canuck (bubble schmubble).
I though Quinn + Hronek were kinda brutal defensively, but maybe that's more on Quinn.
NHL reffing is so uneven and inconsistent, that the players have no idea what will be called or not. Wild players were diving like swans because they saw the refs gamesmanship kicking into high gear.
But we're still first in the league, so not a big deal. Just praise the refs no matter what because they are corrupt and untouchable. IMac and Myers put us in the crosshairs a bit.

Looking back on 54 years of Canuck hockey, have they ever been down two men on four different occasions in the single game? Knowing the Canucks I guess it has happened in their history, but you'd have trouble finding the last time.
Game completely turned on the penalties. Canucks were up 5-2 in the second and the Wild were looking defeated. But those five-on-three's completely turned the game on its head.
About the only 'positive' is that Miller and Hughes padded their stats at the top of the NHL scoring parade. And Pettersson scored once to cement his position in the top 10. But after that, it's a #$@%-show.

Hey! That’s a bit misleading! That was after the game against Winnipeg and NOT Minnesota!

You’re never gonna know if you’re never gonna try

jesus this game reminded me of the hawks canucks 2010. kane hattrick that backhander which broke luongo anyways. 7uongo. that 5th goal was supposed to be whistled down but clearly the ref thought it was a good goal.. desmith was bad.. you had a 5-2 lead.. and still lose. undisiplinced game. colorado will be feasting on this team tmr if they dont wake the f*** up. the powerplay needs to go back to his original formation. miller on the left side halfway lindholm/boeser bumper.
