GDT: WCQF GM06 | Vancouver Canucks @ Nashville Predators | Fri. May 3rd | 4pm PST | SNP/CBC | On the Road Again

[Bourne Endeavor]

Seriously what is wrong? We can't even get shots on net. What happened to this team.

Tochhet has made zero adjustments and teams have long figured us out. Nashville's now had five games to know we won't punish them for blocking shots. So they're free to take chances.

Outside of twelve seconds in Game 1 and three minutes in Game 4, is the most boring series I've ever seen in my entire life.

I loved the physicality at first but man this might be like top 10 most boring series in league history

 

[Flik]

Easily worse. Shots were like 60-54 in some of those games

Turco and Luongo were insane

 

[GranvilleIsland]

Team looks slow in general. Slow skating, slow to pucks, slow mental decisions, and lose the board battles slowly.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

This is worse than the 2007 series against Dallas, and I think we were shutout three times in that series lmfao

Game 1 and Game 7 were amazing.

The entire rest of that series felt like one extremely long, low event game

 

[Dtrain88]

Silovs is legit

Like he plays better with stronger competition and higher stakes. Kid is only 23 too.

Really steps up. Looks super calm to, just another day

 

[Petey O]

Turco and Luongo were insane

Yeah. Goalie battles are a LOT more fun to watch than 30 shots a game from both teams.

 

[Angry Little Elf]

Kevin Bieksa walking us off the cliff

 

[biturbo19]

Team looks slow in general. Slow skating, slow to pucks, slow mental decisions, and lose the board battles slowly.

Team kind of is slow in general.

And Nashville are still giving them absolutely nothing in terms of open space to move the puck and play more quickly to mask it.

either everyone got bad at once or the team didn't have another gear to take it to going from regular season to the playoffs

 

[Canucks LB]

Summary of period 1 at Rogers Arena:

Canucks players are invisible, they did not show up at all!

I’ll keep you guys updated!

 

[LemonSauceD]

that period is the best Pettersson has looked in like 3 months lol

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Pettersson needs to see a sports psychologist in the offseason. He honestly seems like he doesn't give a shit about hockey anymore.

 

[Flik]

Our shots rn

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Even the panel is calling out Tochhet now. This is getting ridiculous.

 

[TruGr1t]

Underrated comment, this team faded just as the league was amping up post all-star.

Bieksa single handedly carrying this panel and the entertainment value of this gsme

Tochhet has made zero adjustments and teams have long figured us out. Nashville's now had five games to know we won't punish them for blocking shots. So they're free to take chances.

These are not rookies you'd think they could figure some things out themselves no. This is painful to watch same every shift we go in and keep passing or blocked attempt. Drive straight to net maybe crash bang get some traffic in front. This perimeter nonsense looking for perfect shot sad.

 

[thecupismine]

Boards, out. Boards, out.

Backend is great at their in-zone d-structure, but watching them try to move the puck is wild. Barely can handle a d to d pass, never mind getting it to a forward quickly in stride. Nashville's forecheck and neutral zone play is giving them fits, and only Hughes knows how to break it.

Part of the neutral zone problems is because of how slow the Canucks are at moving the puck - because they're waiting so long and going so slow, it gives them infinite time to set up a neutral zone lock.

D is activating more in the offensive zone to keep the play which is good. Nashville is blowing one guy out the zone each time, so timing those pinches is key to keeping the play alive.

 

[Peen]

Pettersson line was our best line that period but they still should be mixing that line up with Lindholms

I don’t get tocchet’s insistence

 

[biturbo19]

Aw yeah buddy we need way more Elias "Basically McJesus but better" Pettersson up in this bitch, all that animal does is butters perfect passes, pops bottles pops p***yes so keep your finger on that lamp light limpdick cause the forecast is goals.

f*** your cookie jar and your water bottles, you better get quality rubbermaids bud cause she's gonna spend a lot of time hitting the f***ing ice if Elias has anything to say about it. Blistering Wristers or fat clappers, this f***in guy can't be stopped.

If I had a choice of one attack to use to kill Hitler I would choose a Pettersson snipe from the top of the circle because you f***ing know his evil dome would be bouncing off the end boards after that puck is loosed like lightning from the blade of God's own CCM. I'd just pick up the phone and call Elias Pettersson at 1-800-TOP-TITS where he can be found earning his living at the back of the goddamn net. The world record for a recorded sniper kill is 3,540m, but that's only because nobody has asked ya boi Pettersson to rip any wristers at ISIS yet.

I like the positivity. But gonna need you to take about 10-20% off there good buddy.

You absolutely have to put the lotto line back together at this point.

There's no other option.

F*** it, put him on Millers wing

 

[Dtrain88]

Can’t hit the net why not just T it up and 1 timer into the other team lol
