Post-Game Talk: WCSF GM05 | Canucks defeat Oilers | 3-2 (Soucy, Di Giuseppe, & Miller) | JT MILLER *clap* *clap* *clap*

[crazychimp]

We have to bury these guys in there barn.

You know going in they will play McDavid and Draisitl hard. Lean on them hit them do what you got to do to wear them down. The hardest is the 4th win. This is what the playoffs are all about willing your way to victory.

 

[Jyrki]

Tocchet rode Miller and Linhdholm pretty hard, both of them logged 22 minutes. 4th line plus Hog at less than 10 minutes. And mercifully, Cole was kept to 12 minutes. Think the ice time was distributed as HF would've wanted.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Not much from Crysaitl tonight.

Maybe he should go back to selling furniture.

 

[HelloCookie]

Regarding the EP40 penalty, looks like it was called right. Maybe was mentioned here earlier but i can't keep up with the thread.

Rule 42 - Charging
42.1 Charging - A minor or major penalty shall be imposed on a player
who skates, jumps into or charges an opponent in any manner.

I don't like it though, at least this time around, because it was glorious

 

[valkynax]

They cannot let Lindholm go. If they want to win a Stanley Cup in the Demko window having Lindholm around makes it far more likely.

This guy is way too important. And what a phenomenal play he makes on the winner.

Credit to Petey aswell, 2 massive plays on that goal & I thought he was good tonight. Good response for him & a great response from the team after that incredibly soft effort in game 4.

They were the opposite of soft tonight! top to bottom.

This is the game Pete needed.

This is the game everyone needed.

Literally everyone, including the Oilers.

And that reverse hit on that p***y dipshit Foegle?

I can't recall when Pete played with such swag.

Lindholm, he is EVERYWHERE, holy shit.

Miller's willpower would've made the entire green lantern corps collective shit their f***ing pants.

Skinner's got an ego on him - telling the media that he should start game 6.

They might play them 40 minutes to win how much will they have in a game 7 the win tonight was huge

You could tell Miller was bagged by the end of the third, amazing that he got the winner.

 

[Tonystretcher]

Already said it in the GDT, but I’d like to see 11/7. Friedman would be better in the 5 on 5 minutes and you still have Cole for the PK.

The bit you quoted would make all physical contact illegal. This is the next paragraph in the rule:

Charging shall mean the actions of a player who, as a result of distance traveled, shall violently check an opponent in any manner. A “charge” may be the result of a check into the boards, into the goal frame or in open ice.​

I guess the ref forgot that part too.

 

[Orr4Norris]

Someone needs to make a gif of Mcdavid diving into a pool.

That call on joshua was the weakest

It’s kinda sad the greatest player of this era has to stoop to just playing for PPs. He knows his team can’t win a 5 on 5 series so I can’t really blame him. Just wants to win but is surrounded by a lot of crap.

 

[DFAC]

Sign this man yesterday already

That’s not the whole rule. The last sentence makes it clear that distance travelled is a necessary condition.

Here's the language: 42.1 Charging - A minor or major penalty shall be imposed on a player who skates, jumps into or charges an opponent in any manner. Charging shall mean the actions of any player who, as a result of distance traveled, shall violently check an opponent in any manner.

So when the Nucks are the only Canadian team left standing, who does Sportsnet cheer for?

 

[WiLBoY]

The last one is the hardest to win. Really good effort by everyone tonight, truly no passengers. I was honestly really proud of how the team played even if they lost. They played their hearts out tonight and it was probably one of the more stressful games for me to watch this playoffs.

Hopefully they can put in the same effort but it's going to be tough. Edmonton isn't going to go away that easily and our players must be really tired from tonight's game.

He didn't jump into anyone though. He jumped straight up in the air from a stationary position. It was the Oilers player that skated into him.

 

[Flik]

How is everybody feeling now?

As a bandwagonner, I gotta say your board is pretty cool. Certainly I've visites some much worse ones

Let's finish the Oilers next game. Silovs seems to have extra composure in road games.

 

[DS7]

No.

Have them watch tape, get rested. If the Canucks advance, they will need all hands on deck. There will be injuries and fatigue to deal with.

Tocchet has gone to great lengths to establish the "next man up" mentality. Belief in the team.

Be positive, ffs. I hate it when people poach on my turf. Damn you. Damn you to hell.

When was the last time we had a coaching staff make this many adjustments in a series? I think that's a great sign.

 

[vadim sharifijanov]

bruins, rangers, avalanche, whatever team has a tkachuk brother, take your pick

but they maybe would like us as much as dallas

 

[HelloCookie]

I stand corrected. Ref you suck!

 

[supercanuck]

Props to PDG. It also kind of explains why his play fell off so horribly after the first few months of the season. Anything to do with health of family is tough.

 

[VibinCanuck]

Oilers were given every advantage imaginable with 5 PPs with a horrible 5v5 effort and STILL lost.

This should kill the Oilers spirit. The minutes on McDavid and Draisaitl looked like caught up to them. Earlier than expected, but glad to see.

 

[Kalv]

Skinner's got an ego on him - telling the media that he should start game 6.

Good. Let the hate flow through their locker room

 

[Canucks LB]

Seravelli and button, keep them of our airways, bunch of snakes.

 

[Bertuzzzi44]

Shots 35-23 in favour of the Canucks
Hits 42-20 in favour of the Canucks
Face-offs 36-26 in favour of the Canucks
Powerplays 5-4 in favour of the Oilers

Dominate win.


Pettersson looked much better, great skate deflection to set up the game winner for Miller. The Garland line looked a tad off with Blueger instead of Lindholm, Tocc could put Lindholm back with Garland & Joshua & Blueger between Petersson & Hoglander, Petey line with Blueger would still be 10 times better without Mikheyev. Di Giuseppe seemed like he got PEDs injected into his veins lol he was flying out there, a goal and +2 in the game. Myers another strong game. The team looked so much better without Mikheyev. Lots of shots tonight but they need to bury more of their chances, the powerplay also needs to be a lot better. Great game overall, strong team play by everyone. Let’s Go Canucks!! Can smell the Western Conference Finals!!!
