Post-Game Talk: WCQF [GM3] Canucks defeat Predators | 2-1 (Miller & Boeser) | In DeSmith We Trust

[LemonSauceD]

DeSmith you’re my butterfly, sugar baby

 

[Slapshot_11]

You're not gonna win a series averaging 2 goals a game

 

[Bojack Horvatman]

More lame anthems in LA


Was that Cartman though, rousing up the crowd?

They had Cartman rousing up the crowd in our 2012 series as well

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Hats off to DeSmith, there was no difference between he and Demko tonight.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Kudos to CDS.

And waiting on the in coming “trade Demko” proposals.

Team played like LA which is not a good thing.

Hopefully it’s just temporary if Tocchet got the whole team sick.

Keep it up as there’s just something g u likeable about Nashville.

Could be ROR. Could be country music.

Hronek made a mistake in the neutral zone but it didn't look like it created an odd man rush going the other way because players were skating back.

Preds gained the zone but that was it. I know hronek was trying to intercept a pass in the neutral zone but failed but I don't think it was egregious. I think he saw players coming back in support

I thought their positioning was ok in the defensive zone until Lindholm skated passed his check and lost evangelista

Thats as egregious a time for that decision as any. Nobody is anywhere near out of position if he makes the right call and plays his position.

Three mins in the third. Up by two. Dzone Blueline pinch is the wrong play. Period. No other rights answers sry.

 

[quat]

I have it. Myers had it.

The flu doesn't usually target the area of genitals. That's another issue.

"bird flu"

 

[kanucks25]

I know like 5 people that are sick rn. I never leave the house so I'm fit as a fiddle

I never leave the house and I'm sick all the time

 

[arttk]

The team can win without Demko.

It hasn't been able to win without Myers.

That's just facts. But people will freak out.

Can’t deny those facts

 

[Jay26]

I'd they're battling the flu I hope they say something about it. Or Tocchet. I hope they're not worrying that it will sound whiny or whatever because it wouldn't. It would actually make people feel a lot better about what they're seeing. Because of this is simply the best the team can do offensively then they quite frankly don't belong in the next round.

On the flip side you can't say the guys haven't shown up. Effort is a different thing than ability and they certainly gutted out this win. Extra kudos go to the D, especially the bottom 2 pairs. Also DeSmith obviously was tremendous. Tocchet with the good call there.

 

[Grip it N RYP it]

They had Cartman rousing up the crowd in our 2012 series as well

Ah. Never heard it back then, either. Must be a Parker Stone thing.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Id rather pay Zadorov than Hronek.

There, I said it.

You can keep Zadorov and add another defenceman to replace Hronek for $3.5 million.

Deal his rights for a pick.

 

[Bojack Horvatman]

Since this is BC, I wonder if we could get Towelie to rouse up the crowd

 

[Nopefully]

Ah. Never heard it back then, either. Must be a Parker Stone thing.

They're Kings fans, yeah

 

[kanucks25]

Hronek made a mistake in the neutral zone but it didn't look like it created an odd man rush going the other way because players were skating back.

I thought their positioning was ok in the defensive zone until Lindholm skated passed his check and lost evangelista

It's true that if Lindholm didn't get walked it probably would have been fine but it's just an unnecessary decision at that juncture of the game.

When you miss on an aggressive play like that you're forcing your teammates to adjust on a dime and that can lead to mistakes like it did there.

 

[MS]

Good road game for 2 periods, then ... managed to hang the hell on.

Playoffs are so much about special teams and winning that battle tonight was the difference.

Big game for DeSmith. Kudos.

 

[LemonSauceD]

You can keep Zadorov and add another defenceman go replace Hronek for $3.5 million.

You can re sign Joshua, zadorov, and Blueger and still have money left for a deprh defenseman than pay Hronek $7.5M.

Hronek can be used to grab a top 6 forward.

 

[ziploc]

You're not gonna win a series averaging 2 goals a game

To be fair, they are averaging 2.3333333333333 (and so on)

But yeah, agreed.

"bird flu"

No 5 Flu

 

[M2Beezy]

Where is this flu bs coming from? I don't know one person who has the flu right now, yet it has devastated the whole canuck team.

Good science. I will let everyone know of your scientific findings Logan

 

[SopelFanThe3rd]

I don't really care what the Oilers fans say cuz at the end of the day I live in Lake Country and they live in Edmonton.

I'm guessing, and hoping, that the Canucks brass has seen the same things we all have. He isn't a top 2 dman, and should not be paid as such. Zadorov is having a way bigger impact on these playoff games than Hronek. So IMO are Cole and Soucy.

I don't really care what the Oilers fans say cuz at the end of the day I live in Lake Country and they live in Edmonton.

Well, some of them probably live in Red Deer. Maybe even Leduc.

Easy there... we used to call it Kelownavirus for a reason, and the reason came from East of the Rockies

 

[Kryten]

I never leave the house and I'm sick all the time

It caught me yesterday and today. But I couldve got it from Sopels genitals

 

[Petey O]

Good science. I will let everyone know of your scientific findings Logan

The flu is a psyop. You failed the test, Beezer.
