Pre-Game Talk: WCSF | Game 5 | Vancouver Canucks @ Vegas Golden Knights | Sep 1 | 6:45PM PST - SPAC

[Brock Boeser Laser Show]

Canucks convert on that 5on3 gift and it's a different game 3. Canucks show killer instinct and score on 1 of the 2 power plays gifted to them and it's a different game 4. You can't blunder gifts like that and expect to win.

Pp isn’t the reason the team is down 3-1

there is a reason the most successful pp Teams in the league still fail 70-75% of the time.

need to be better at even strength and at least stay even. Can’t lose the battle at even strength and expect to win in the playoffs

have to agree on this one, we have more power plays then them the last 2 games, we have to capitalize on it, like we did the first 2 series. We beat the blues on special team and goaltending those 2 aspects have to come through tomorrow or else it's game over and Bo Horvat goes back to his baby early.

agreed. dont always rely ON special teams. good teams find a way to get it done 5 on 5.

I expect somewhat of a trap game tomorrow.

 

[David71]

And for the players...the consolation prize is leaving Edmonton

Not bad.

Not bad at all.

A few things..


The last entire minute of game 4 while down 2, Roussel and Gaudette both on the ice, Roussel finally changes and sutter comes out...
I know the top guys were on the PP previously but cmon, thats not even trying to win.

Green yelling at Reaves was embarrassing. Shouldnt happen, and it tells the entire vegas team that reaves has gotten into the canucks heads, all the way to the top.
Mcquire on nbc said about DeBoer something like, ' he's calm, no panic in him, he's composed. You dont see him screaming and yelling'
Not a good look for our coach.


Where are the people that said if we had Myers in game 3 we'd have won.....?
We lost with him. He was average at best, and ypu can't use the he's rusty excuse because then he'd have been rusty in game 3 too and not be the difference in winning.
Better than benn yes, needle mover no.


Obviously the bottom 6 is a mess, like so many of us said years ago. Not much else to say about that that hasn't been already.

 

[David71]

vancouver needs to do what colorado did tonight. score alot of goals to really get back in this series. I beleive!

 

[BB06]

Rumour mill around is Demko gets the start tomorrow.

Rumour mill around is Demko gets the start tomorrow.

That would be very stupid, considering they just started Markstrom back to back..

Green should have kept his cool there. I appreciate the emotion he’s shows especially when giving it to the refs at times, but there’s a line you don’t cross as a coach.

Has their ever been a situation like that in the past? I don’t recall ever seeing a coach getting into it verbally with the opposing teams player, have seen it with coaches getting into it with each other ala Torts.

 

[canuckfan75]

Marky must be hurting bad for him not to play

 

[BB06]

Watching Highlights from the Sharks-Knights series to give me some hope of a coming back. See this stat line appear and hope continues to dwindle.....
