Demko lets in 1 goal and we still lose
Awful, can’t blame Demko on this.
No goal scoring tonight was bad.
Also Elias needs to shot the puck instead of picking his shot selection and shoot. Fire the f***er ******

Sarcasm isn’t your thing huh? Of course I was kidding about being level headed. I’m an idiot! 70% of the board has muted me, and I’ve been spewing negativity for 15 years on here.
that said, I keep coming back , game in... and game out. Glutton for punishment.
as for the flames / oilers fan comment, that’s low hanging fruit. Be witty if you wanna crack on me, I appreciate being ripped if you put thought behind it. 15,000 posts and ALL in Canucks board. ZERO in any other board...
Unpopular opinion but ...
looked like Hoggy POC was the head.
no more discussion. I’ve ruled.
Rule 48 – Illegal Check to the Head 48.1 Illegal Check to the Head – A hit resulting in contact with an opponent’s head where the head was the main point of contact and such contact to the head was avoidable is not permitted. In determining whether contact with an opponent's head was avoidable, the circumstances of the hit including the following shall be considered:
(i)Whether the player attempted to hit squarely through the opponent’s body and the head was not "picked" as a result of poor timing, poor angle of approach, or unnecessary extension of the body upward or outward.
(ii)Whether the opponent put himself in a vulnerable position by assuming a posture that made head contact on an otherwise full body check unavoidable.
(iii)Whether the opponent materially changed the position of his body or head immediately prior to or simultaneously with the hit in a way that significantly contributed to the head contact.
48.2 Minor Penalty – For violation of this rule, a minor penalty shall be assessed.
48.3 Major Penalty – There is no provision for a major penalty for this rule.
48.4 Game Misconduct Penalty – There is no provision for a game misconduct for this rule.
Which game did you watch?
Yes but its worthwhile to read rule 48 in its entirety.Unpopular opinion but ...

I said this after they scored in the first. Of course people all “better give up then” blah blah. Facts don’t lie. We are mental weaklings. Score a goal on us, may as well just end the game and get home early.
under this name anyways ....
How is it a penalty at all? It says "main point of contact." You can't tell me the head was the main point of contact on the hit.It appears its a minor, not a major penalty for an illegal check to the head which I assume a major would get assessed under a different rule.

Huh? They battled hard. Mostly controlled the play in the 3rd and had a lot of offensive zone time.
The execution wasn't there, but they also had some bad luck and ran into a brick Brossoit. They didn't "give up".
Yes this is absurd. How can you expect to have any respect when you ref like this. No brainer PP and probably should have been a 5 on 3.New tactic if you get a penalty go after the other teams player gets turned into a 4-4 genius.

That Sherbert guy didnt get punished for his actions by the refs or the Canucks, so will keep acting like that after Hogger hit him cleanly, no headshot WHATSOEVER clearly. Refs dropped the ball and obviously the Canucks focused on winnign the game late so can understand that, but expect something to happen early on sundays REMATCH so hopefully Macewan ENTERS the lineup again hopefully at the EXPENSE of Eriksson
