No he hasn’t.

if you take away the fact that he missed two wide open nets

then yes he has been awesome

 

[biturbo19]

Nobody is..only 4 shots for each team

True. And people were wondering why this series got put on the broadcast back-burner. lol.

 

[EpochLink]

Pettersson just needs that one goal off his back.

Also, I'm waiting for JT MIller and Brock Boeser to get on the score sheet too.. If we are gonna slag Pettersson for lack of goals, those two need to buy one.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Next goal wins.

 

[kanucks25]

Sucks to be down 1 after all those shooting opportunities but they just need to stick with it like they did in game 1 and the results will come.

They're working hard and being physical which led to a lot of O Zone time but it's pretty much as simple as executing better; way too many missed shots, blocked shots, bobbled passes, missed passes, etc.

 

[calnuck]

People are actually blaming DeSmith for that goal?

 

[Flik]

I'd rather he f***ing take those shots and miss then continually defer to his teammates, so this is progress imo lol

 

[LordBacon]

If youre losing games and it dont look good,
who you're gonna call?

BROCK BOESER

 

[MS]

That was a cursed period if I ever seen one. Lucky bounce goal right as the fans are chanting Casey. Pettersson should have 2 goals but inexplicably passes on a half-empty net and pulls it wide on an empty net. It is 100% mental for him right now. We need to have his back.

Pettersson is a totally broken player. I don't know what to say after watching that period.

$11 million players have simply gotta take those chances.

 

[PG Canuck]

Keep playing like that and they are up 2-0 in the series. All over the Preds.

 

[Fraser28]

Ok

If you think that is “awesome”, I don’t even know what to say. Did you see the wide open net he flubbed? For the rest he was pretty good, but there’s no way it adds to awesome.

 

[SillyRabbit]

Predators want to block shots?

Did they see what happened to Zucker when he blocked Hronek's shot?

The same Zucker who scored for them in Game 1?

I want to see Hronek absolutely BLASTING it every chance he gets.

The toll will add up.

 

[biturbo19]

I remember when Craig Simpson started doing anals too. Errr...Analyzesesis. Or something.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

People are actually blaming DeSmith for that goal?

no but it's just very comical

 

[logan5]

Coincidently, Predators is on channel 478 (Shaw) right now. Decent Sci-fi/action flick. Maybe a sign of some sort.

 

[ephmrl]

Canucks were done the second Demko went down so these games are meaningless anyways.

No point stressing about them sucking, just enjoy the final games of the year.

Complete loser mentality.

 

[Flik]

Keep playing like that and they are up 2-0 in the series. All over the Preds.

Definitely, the only thing that concerns me is the PP is blowing chances and that's gonna bite us in the ass eventually. Otherwise, we're pretty much dominating and what else can you ask for.

 

[Oliewud]

petterson is choking

pretty embarrassing to be so demanding for money and "winning" then completely choke when u get what u want

 

[arttk]

People are actually blaming DeSmith for that goal?

I mean he over commit on a nothing shot

 

[Angry Little Elf]

This is such a cursed series lol

 

[Blue and Green]

Also did Predators have a decent shot that entire period? I'm worried once they finally get a decent chance CDS will just let it in since he isn't warmed up

Basically, no. They scored on the deflection and then had pretty much nothing for the last 18:45.

 

[Canucker]

Nice to see Bieksa explaining that the goal wasn't fully DeSmith's fault.

Let's not give up on him just yet.

I wouldn’t give up on him over that…but it wasn’t a good goal to give up on his part…if Demmer is down for the rest of the playoffs, I’d be riding Silovs…but if its just a short term injury, DeSmith is perfectly fine.

 

[TruKnyte]

Definitely, the only thing that concerns me is the PP is blowing chances and that's gonna bite us in the ass eventually. Otherwise, we're pretty much dominating and what else can you ask for.

If we lose special teams will be a big factor for that.

 

[VanillaCoke]

Pettersson needs clen this summer

 

[wonton15]

Pettersson just needs that one goal off his back.

Also, I'm waiting for JT MIller and Brock Boeser to get on the score sheet too.. If we are gonna slag Pettersson for lack of goals, those two need to buy one.

Boeser’s execution tonight is super off. Throwing a lot of blind passes nowhere and not getting a shot on net.
