Using the skate logo here...is there actual talk about the Canucks wearing the black sweaters for their home games?
I would not be shocked if they did.

Playoffs are a different animal. You can expect player like Hughes and Pettersson struggle mightily. And no 2020 bubble against rusty opponents doesn't count.Shouldn’t you be saying Canucks in 5 than? Nashville doesn’t play a “tight checking game”
Rent free already. Love it.This post is good for my bet with @SopelFanThe3rd. I took the over for how many oilers fans will be in this thread vs preds fans
Your board has a meltdown after every loss against Vancouver, which happened a lot this year lol.Rent free already. Love it.
Maybe against a team with playoff pedigree/success, Nashville isn’t one of themPlayoffs are a different animal. You can expect player like Hughes and Pettersson struggle mightily. And no 2020 bubble against rusty opponents doesn't count.
Idk bruh. He came into a thread about the Canucks within five posts at like 1am saying that the Canucks would lose.Rent free already. Love it.

Nothing from the team that I'm aware of.Using the skate logo here...is there actual talk about the Canucks wearing the black sweaters for their home games?
That’s why Trotz signed ROR and Schenn and kept McDonagh. Josi, Sissons and Forsberg also did have a lot of success in 2017-2018 when they won the West and played 6 games in the finals.Maybe against a team with playoff pedigree/success, Nashville isn’t one of them
I by no means think Nashville is going to be an “easy out”, It’s just people are overstating this whole playoffs are a different beast angle for this series.That’s why Trotz signed ROR and Schenn and kept McDonagh.

I think Nashville is more physical, I think Vancouver is faster. Nashville is probably more aggressive, which could be a problem for Nashville.I by no means think Nashville is going to be an “easy out”, It’s just people are overstating this whole playoffs are a different beast angle for this series.
Nashville is a good team this year but they don’t play a heavy physical game like LA does, the notion that they are going to physically dominate Hughes/Pettersson is about as silly as saying the Canucks will sleep walk through the series.
These two teams are going into a series on a fairly even playing field.
AgreedI think Nashville is more physical, I think Vancouver is faster. Nashville is probably more aggressive, which could be a problem for Nashville.
I don't think Nashville wins. I just don't know if we're there yet with talent. If we don't win though, it won't be because we lacked players with playoff success or experience, we have as much as that as anyone.
I think it could be a close one. Hope it’s a fun one either way. Cheers!Happy that my boys made it but they match up against the Canucks horribly; saw it several times this year. Would love a Game 7 upset but my head says Canucks in 6.

I would for sure add Jankowski and Sherwood to that. I'd also say that Forsberg and McDonagh can throw some weight around as well.A lot of that physicality comes from Schenn, Lauzon, McCaron, Smith. Nashville from the games I watched are quite a clean team.
I think the canucks will hit a lot, we have some big monsters on the backend. And most inexperienced playoffs teams usually gets too excited and hit more than they should.
I forgot that mark jankowski plays for the preds. Glad he’s been able to have a careerI would for sure add Jankowski and Sherwood to that. I'd also say that Forsberg and McDonagh can throw some weight around as well.
I'm anxious to see how/if Stastney plays. The kid can skate, and seems really defensively responsible.
I worry about Novak and Evangelista a lot. I worry that Lauzon tries to be too physical.
I worry about Saros big game ability. When he's on, he's fantastic but when he's not...
