Why the f*** do they keep dumping it in when they have the puck in the zone already

Tocchet hockey at its absolute worst right now

 

[Orca Smash]

Let’s calm down yes that bad play by Cole but he has been very good this postseason. Also Silovs has to have that.

No need to calm down, its playoffs, you screw up your season is over. Its a whole new ball game.

 

[Nomobo]

Petterson got felled by a ghost.

 

[Petey O]

If the Canucks let in another before scoring this game is over. No chance this team scores 4.

 

[AwesomeInTheory]

Not really. If the game gets out of hand, you need to have something positive to walk away with for the rest of the series. A banged up McDavid could be that.

Playing him physical? Sure.

Going out and trying to goon him? Nah.

 

[Donuts]

A breakaway save and a post

Keep calm and stay focus. They can comeback

 

[NoShowWilly]

all i see is the 4th line and cole every shift. Wtf

 

[SillyRabbit]

Looking forward to Bieksa absolutely trashing Cole in the 1st intermission.

Don't let us down Kevin.

 

[AzNightmare]

Tocchet is just f***ing with the deployments as well, why the f*** are we sending out PDGs line so often when we’re down two and struggling to generate offense. Idiotic

Is beer league, need to make sure everyone gets a fair share to play.

 

[Jay26]

Why the f*** do they keep dumping it in when they have the puck in the zone already

Because they're not playing with the confidence to hold on to the puck. I have no idea why.

 

[just22]

Hes small af

He’s like 6.4

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Skinner playing well is going to make this almost impossible. We need to rattle his confidence.

What's the alternative? There's no real meaningful support. Nothing that isn't going to get turned around on them by the quick strike Oilers.

They need to really recalibrate their neutral zone play after that Nashville series.

 

[calnuck]

No need to calm down, it’s playoffs, you screw up your season is over. It’s a whole new ball game.

Pretty much this. Ian Cole had a great series against Nashville? Great congratulations, idgaf this is a new series and you’re actively f***ing the whole team.

I don't know, but the Canucks have had so many grade A chances, they're bound to land a few and the Oilers are capitalizing on some brutal hockey by Cole.

If the Canucks don't finish, then for sure this will be over quickly, but it's going to feel great watching them come back in this one.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

"Another one of those droughts; 21 games without a goal."

Tocchet: Let's keep putting him with Pettersson!

 

[Hyzer]

Ptey actually has to play some hockey though if we want to win any more playoff games. This team only goes as far as Demko, Petey and Hughes, and we only have 1/3 right now soooooooooo

 

[Slapshot_11]

He's what now?


I feel like it's one of those things where he just doesn't have a feel, or hasn't yet learned how to look "around and over" screens and stuff.


Carey Price was the Prototype...and he looked like a friggin' Meercat or Gopher or something half the time. He'd be popping up and looking over and around to track pucks. Silovs is a lot more static and seems to end up with big blindspots in his tracking as a result.

I just looked it up and hes as tall as as demko wtf he looks so small

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Boeser just got injured. No contact injury.

Just a shit start to the series.

edit: Slash to the back of the leg. Nice.

 

[AzNightmare]

Skinner playing well is going to make this almost impossible. We need to rattle his confidence.

Only a beer league goalie wouldn't look good in a period with 4 shots.

 

[TruKnyte]

Man refs letting the oilers getting away with murder. How the f*** do you not call that slash?

 

[Orca Smash]

Here we go rick tocchet system play around the boards so you are so tired you have no energy to offensively score a goal.

 

[Vector]

Did Tyler Myers ever learn how to properly shoot or are his limbs just too long?

 

[Bobby9]

FFS STOP PASSING IT TO THE POINT OVER AND OVER

 

[Peen]

Felt like an even period except only one side’s f*** ups ended up in the net
