To not even have a shot on net, it’s inexcusable, Hughes gets the puck and immediately looks to pass, how about skate to the middle of ice with your elite skating and whip a shot through.

That’s what happens when you have somebody like Hughes on the team. They create the entire PP around him and when he’s not firing on all cylinders you have a nightmare scenario

It's shocking to see Vancouver not make any adjustments to their PP when EDM has so obviously figured it out. They keep running the same system and banging their heads against the wall. That was disgusting. Here we are in game 7 and they were blessed with a DBL minor and they completely blew it. We'll look back at that as a key moment in the game.

It’s not even that they’re probably going to lose. It’s the fashion with which they may lose again. Just ugly, ugly, ugly.

I don’t know what the Canucks are trying to do..some weird rope a dope..

Outshot 13-2..and nothing on a 4 minute PP

If they keep this up,the outcome is going to be ominous.

I don’t understand how every single Canucks player has the yips. Pucks bouncing off everyone’s stick.
Hard to keep it in perspective that this is the core’s first real run and that this result is ok, but it’s mindboggling how all 18 skaters seems to have mom’s spaghetti all at once. What the hell is wrong with them right now?

Fellas we did this exact stuff against Nashville and still won the series. Let’s have faith.

I have to say, the Canucks have done a great job killing off that double minor.

...

What do you mean they're the ones on the power play? o_O Are you sure?

*Sighs in resignation*

It's honestly felt like any time the Canucks got the puck pre-power play, they would immediately dump it in and change lines. Not a good sign. :( Would've hoped for a bit more fight than this tonight.

This looks like when our team was just completely broken and no longer able to compete.

Hronek on PP1 was definitely a choice.
Hronek makes no sense since he can't even shoot. He obviously has an arm or wrist injury since he hasn't let go with a bomb in a long time.

Oilers are basically a collection of third and fourth liners. It's not a surprise they have a good PK. It works because they have McDavid and Draisaitl to score all their goals.

Hronek shouldn’t be on powerplay #1

Terrible power play
