Edmonton media call it like it is. They are either hated for it or loved for it. Every single Canucks crew, heck even Hockey night in punjabi- which is technically supposed to be neutral are all homering out for Vancouver. Canuck fans also crying about why they don't have more of "their" guys on broadcast networks. They are littered with them. If this keeps on going, Can't wait for the Oilers to put an end to this clownshow. Victim complex. Cringe cousin disease.

Waving the white towel is so fitting for Vancouver media. Crying foul acting like victims of conspiracy theories against them. Oilers really should be up 2-0 in this series. Unfortunately goaltending has let them down. If the goaltending is even average this series is over quick.

HAHAHA oh that's hilarious, goaltending was the problem in game one?

Not the fact that the Oilers had 8 shots in the last 2 periods?

Speaking of goaltending imagine if we had our starting goalie in net rather then our third stringer......

 

[North Cole]

Do Oilers fans claim Ryan Whitney as their own? Guys a hack.
Reminds me of the obnoxious frat boy who is just there, didn't do jack shit but got an A on the group project. Man hasn't learned maturity since he left the NHL.

This can't be a serious question. The mistake is listening to anything him or biz say to begin with.

 

[2for1PizzaPastuh]

Ah yes the unbiased Pulitzer Prize winning calibre Mark Spector……….maybe Gene Principe can add some additional intellectual insight in to the matter…….what a crew!

Lmao Spec is hated by the overwhelming majority of Oilers fans. Hilarious that even this guy is calling out the crybaby Canucks.

We’d be able to get out the brooms and the boys would thankfully only have to spend 2 games in Edmonton. Lol

No we don’t. He’s only a social media “personality” trying to get likes and followers… anyone with half a brain can figure that out.

You have identified and described him very well.

 

[I am toxic]

Vancouver has been so blessed with pbp guys.

Batch
Shorty
Hughson
Robson

To rub salt in the wounds, we also had Tom Larscheid.

I can understand if others are envious.

And we all know what envy leads to . . .

Anyway, back on topic - it will be Andy Rooney and Skeletor. I don't expect McDavid to flagrantly high stick Hughes in the face tonight. Good to see Bettman and the NHL shamed into giving Sutherland the boot.

Response to Spector:

The Vancouver Canucks are zero wins in eight playoffs games all time in which Kelly Sutherland is an official: 0 for 8.

The probability of this happening by chance is approaching that of the Oilers winning the draft lottery in three consecutive years (2012, 2011 and 2010) and then again in 2015.

The probability of this happening by chance is approaching that of Spector understanding statistics.

Canucks were 2-1 in the regular season with Sutherland… Oilers were 2-4… stop the whining. Digging up shit from 2011 is so weak.

Yet, with decent goaltending in the third the Oilers would had won the game with 8 shots in the last 2 periods....

I really don't get why the Nucks fans are soo proud, and keep talking about the complete domination. Nucks scored 3 goals on 8 shots in the last period, the Oilers needed a .875% SV in that period to win.... .875%....

He’s a washed up hockey personality that tries to appeal to the younger generation of “hockey culture”. I would be surprised if any fanbase would want to “claim him”

 

[JianYang]

Wonder if Sutherland is in game 3? Gonna make my bet in . Canucks are 0-9 when he’s in

I remember sutherland's name come up in the 2021 playoffs as well because the Habs were something like 0-6 in Sutherland officiated games. I don't recall the exact number but it was lopsided.

I came across a post on Facebook from some generic NHL site, I'm like 'wait, how old is this guy again?'

Shorty and Hughson are the cream of the crop imo. Loved listening to Shorty on the radio as a kid.

I liked them all except batch kind of rubs me the wrong way. I just chuckle now everytime he mentions when a Canucks player is "taken down but no call"

Larscheid was a homer but he was fun, and he also gave it it to them when they deserved it. These days a guy like larscheid would never get a chance. His expertise was actually in football, and he just happened to get the Canucks gig as well, I presume because the radio rights of the lions and Canucks were held by the same station.

Ok if you wanna go that route, with decent goaltending the Canucks aren't down by 2 goals going into the third, hell, it's likely they don't give up the first or second goal in the game either with Demko in net, likely that game would have been completely different......

We aren't proud, (most of us at least) we aren't dominating shit right now, it's been completely back and forth and the series being tied 1-1 is completely reflective of that.

That's how most sane rational Canucks fans feel. Oh and your PP scares the crap out of us LOL.

Your starting goalie wouldn't of made a difference in game 2, your tender played fantastic

He did, but we can't say that for sure.

Disagree. Demko is a whole nother beast.

[BoHorvat 53]

I mean if you're Drai/McDavid, and you keep doing this show and dance of showing up with a supporting cast that finds a way to shit the bed, how long are you okay with just staying in Edmonton? The only game the Oilers have won in this series was literally on the backs of McDavid/Draisaitl dragging the entire team along with them. Skinner is shitting the bed for sure, but you guys are also making our boy Silovs look like a Vezina caliber goalie (Appreciate it for sure though)

 

[GoldenSeal]

Disagree. Demko is a whole nother beast.

Any of the Canucks netminders have proven that when called upon, they can go to war. Meanwhile, Edmonton likes their netminders extra crispy. Pickard could turn the tide because the Oil is going nowhere with Principal Skinner.

Good guys won tonight! Onto game 4!

PDO helped out big time this game

 

[Szechwan]

29min TOI for McDrai, perhaps the rest of the lineup does nothing because they are constantly iced out on the bench?
