They have a soon to be 37 year old 2nd line C. I dislike their 3rd pair options immensely. Rinne is on the decline.

Also, this is usually when teams start to tune out Lavy. 3rd year.

The first two haven't been as big a problem as the third as well as nobody in our top 6 being capable of scoring a goal (Neal, Forsberg, Johansen with 0 combined on the year). If not for Arvidsson, it would look even worse.

Horvat, Baertschi and Virtanen brings the Canucks to within 1.

Against a backup goalie.

Nice little cheapshot there from gnarly beard (with the C)

You mean if OEL was hurt? It's virtually impossible to be below 50 pts in this era of 3 point games and OT the way it is - even the 2014-15 Sabres were at 54.

It will be close.. maybe 60pts then.

I remember the 2014-2015 Sabres and yeah that was an epically baaad team.

Well, anyone that picks Kings in their pool deserves what's coming to them because they should know better, but this is the first time they've been shut out this season...

Wasn't so bad, I have Allen too.

Nashville hits a bunch of post then get a nice tip from Neal. Play looks more balanced than the 3-1 score.

Congratulations to James Neal being the first of the trio of him, Johansen, and Forsberg to score a goal!

Wasn't so bad, I have Allen too.

Fair tradeoff

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

What a goal.

Bura on the backhand to Oshie, who fires a rocket.

Canucks one step closer to a needed rebuild.

PK is having a very good game tonight.

 

[Alwalys]

Thornton held a puck so long it just became a goal while never leaving his stick.

Thornton: 1G - 0SOG

I loved that goal. It was the most Jumbo goal ever -waiting to pass then gets tripped and awarded the goal. It's probably his dream to score that way.

 

[Limekiller]

Only Joe Thornton could figure out how to score a goal without ever actually shooting the puck.
