I'll be happy as long as the Canucks as a team (and not just because of Demko) stay competitive. They had some moments against the Jets where they looked like the Travis Green version.
Boudreau stated that the mistakes have been increasing with every game since he's been here..and we were somewhat saved by a great goaltending performance last game.

I think they're in tough tonight, Carolina is a great team. They did play last night and are starting their backup, Raanta, but we all know that's not really an advantage.

What again? How many times has this been the case this year? 3 in a row, no?

This will be a real good test. Should be a higher scoring fun game. I could see us taking it to OT again

I think it could look like the game vs Boston, both Cassidy and rod play an ultra aggressive defense focused system pressuring when you don't have the puck.

Of course every game is different.

Canucks get Carolina on a back-to-back, but their performance last night in Edmonton is pretty sobering if you're a Canucks fan. This is one stacked hockey team, and a serious Cup contender.

It'll take another stellar effort from Demko in this one. And maybe the 'Canes come out a little flat. That might be the only hope the Canucks have.

Is it just me or have we really gotten the back to back, or teams playing their 3rd game in 4 nights advantage this year?

that has been a thing and ive thought about that too but hey more the merrier.
the team need to show up just like last 3 wins hopefully in regulations
pretty tough to win but i expect 3-2 game in ot going either way

The Canes are assuredly a much better team. But they will be starting their backup, on the back-end of B2B, and are missing their entire right-side D-corps to COVID/injury.

I'm saying there's a chance!

Forwards really need to help the D out. Too many turnovers or stupid passes. Unfortunately agree, the 5 on 5 play has been slipping the past few games...

Pettersson is due. Just shoot!!
yes shoot the damn puck quickly quit having to stickhandle it. Has had 3 or 4 almost empty nets over the last 5 games and didn't even shoot looking for a pretty play.
