That period was a travesty, completely stopped moving our feet and panic'd when we did manage to recover the puck. This team knows how to bounce back though, hoping we have some jump in OT.

Said it all year - we get reffed like the road team on home ice.

Probably should have got ourselves more possession in the last 10 minutes, though.

Might've been owed a PP, but it was really damn hard for the refs to even try to give us one with the way that third went.

Seems like they came out of the 2nd intermission thinking they were going to shut down the one goal lead and coast to victory.

Intermission came at the perfect time for a possible reset.

We could have rolled over with a peak McDavid performance, but we're dragging them to OT where McDrai might play >30-40 min.

Still not that bad for a worst case loss.

Also—I don’t know why people are so shocked that Edmonton was tilting the ice this period. This is their desperation hockey to avoid the 0-2 split. This was always going to be a very hard match for the Canucks to win.

Players in the lockerroom would’ve taken a tie game going into OT if that was on the table before the game.
