Get da furst (goal)!

Hot take here, this is a pivotal game in the series for the Canucks.

I also wonder how much some homers might try to downplay this fact.

Vegas looks like SC material this year along with TB.

 

[M2Beezy]

Cmon guys lets turn this around!!!

GOOOO CANUCKS GOOO!!!!!!!!

Man I love this team

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Come out hard and score some f***ing goals! Let’s go, boys!

 

[Star Ocean]

I have a good feeling. Canucks will win.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

I have a good feeling. Canucks will win.

I’m going with a 4-3 win. Petey with two, Edler and Horvat.

Canucks are very good at bounceback games.

 

[Hit the post]

Come out hard and score some f***ing goals! Let’s go, boys!

I’ll take even just one (the first goal). Vegas is hard enough to beat, even tougher when they have the lead.

 

[Grumbler]

I think the key is scoring first.

 

[EpochLink]

Let’s go guys, win it for Brocks cousin.

 

[ErrantShepherd]

Hoping for a win! ...not even gonna think about a loss.

 

[LuckyDay]

I think the key is scoring first.

And getting in front of the net. They didn't do that till the third. Also shooting where Leher isn't like, not right at him.

 

[ErrantShepherd]

I think the key is scoring first.

I have been told, scoring more than the other team leads to wins more often than not.

Get those advanced stats outta here!

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

However this game and the rest of the series go - it’s been bloody marvellous partaking in playoff hockey with you all again. Here’s hoping the boys can extend this run for as long as possible, because I’m having a blast.

 

[NinjaKick]

I'll be watching the game with 3 extremely sexually frustrated 50+ year old ladies... may baby Jesus protect my body and may the Canucks win

Uh...Godspeed?

Would be absolutely huge if Boeser or Hughes could hit the scoresheet in this one. Boeser is definitely slumping, and Hughes could use a breakthrough.

 

[Zanon]

The Canucks are not going to win three in a row on Vegas, so it's do or die tonight. Score first.

 

[Grub]

Do or die gents...

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Well - we got one piano off our back in this series with our first ever regulation win against Vegas. Would sure be nice to get another and beat Flower.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Re: Hughes - I don’t think the narrative that he’s scared or getting beat up is accurate. IMO, the Wild and the Blues played him way harder and took more runs at him.

Vegas is more like Nicklas Lidstrom vs. The Twins - they’re getting in all the passing lanes, using smart sticks to disrupt all his plays, and keying in on him to prevent him from rushing, passing or shooting well. It’s a high IQ containment strategy that Vegas is pulling off superbly because they have a lot of really smart players.

 

[I am toxic]

Canucks have always been streak breakers . . .

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Must win game

 

[Baby Pettersson]

Series will be tied by the end of tonight.
