GDT: WCQF GAME #6: Canucks vs. Blues | 6:45 p.m. PST

[Chairman Maouth]

 

[Bam19]

Can anyone explain to me why round 2 is starting before round 1 has finished?

 

[Grub]

Here it is minus Bieksa:

Christian Erhoff still looking young there beside Tanev. Still thought it was a big mistake letting him go.

 

[Angry Little Elf]

I didn’t listen to the pregame today. We’re going to win. 6-0 when I don’t

 

[PG Canuck]

Binner or Binny or whatever is back in net

hmmm

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

The winner of a game 7 (in a series that has been super physical) gets a well rested Vegas the night after. Stupid.

 

[Jovofan]

Wow, Binnington back in net?! Allen to me looked way sharper. I hope we can take advantage early and get in his head. Let's go boys!!

 

[Zombotron]

if you get wrecked by bo horvat, keep quiet

 

[Balls Mahoney]

I really have not been impressed with the Blues this series. I expect the Canucks to close it out tonight with heroics from Markstrom, Horvat and a player to be named later.

 

[I am toxic]

This game is a decade in the making, the biggest game since 2011.

Mmmmm. Game 5 2012. Was it Hammer that blew a tire and turned it over in OT.

No one else gave LAK a run for their money.

 

[Blue and Green]

Can anyone explain to me why round 2 is starting before round 1 has finished?

TV $.

It'll be finished.

Must be banking on Philly and Vancouver to close out today...

Well it is stupid, but the schedule seems to be condensed. Starting 2nd round before 1st round ends...
There's always a benefit to sweeping your opponents. No one to blame but yourself if you need an extra 3 games.

Tonight it will be LE21

 

[Tony Stacks]

Guess it's been confirmed Toffoli's not playing?

 

[Angry Little Elf]

At last we’ll have decent ice

 

[Balls Mahoney]

Tonight it will be LE21

Seems completely out of the realm of possibility... which makes him an excellent pick.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Well, boys - see you on the other side.

GO CANUCKS GO!!!!

 

[pretzel]

I am actually, genuinely excited to see how the Canucks hold up against what will be a surging St. Louis team in this game. Pettersson has been good this series but tonight I think he needs to take it to another level for us to advance. Go Nucks!

 

[Mr4legs]

I have been a lurker on HF for many years. Prior to this user name, I was known as 4legs. I've been a 'Nuck fan since 1970. Murray Hall, Ted Taylor, Mike Corrigan...

My wife died on Tuesday. She loved the Canucks. We named our cat Alex after you-know-who.

She'll be cremated monday or tuesday next week wearing a Luongo jersey, from the late 2000's.

Win one for Connie, boys!

[SeawaterOnIce]

Guess it's been confirmed Toffoli's not playing?

Guessing a fracture or high ankle sprain? He was spotted wearing an ankle boot earlier this month.

 

[Angry Little Elf]

Canucks are Canada’s team

 

[RussianRacket]

It is time.

 

[mathonwy]

And then there was one

 

[just22]

Can anyone explain to me why round 2 is starting before round 1 has finished?

Condensed schedule. Same reason every team played B2Bs.
