GDT: WCSF GM05 | Vancouver Canucks vs Edmonton Oilers | Thur. May 16th | 7pm PST | SNP/CBC | So Tight, Almost Like a Playoff Series

[SopelFanThe3rd]

Real sad about Dutch. Seemed like a good guy.

 

[Grip it N RYP it]

No Bieksa on the panel is a travesty

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

When the off-season starts and we hear what Hronek played through will make some sense but at the same time a lot of his errors are mental mistakes.

And he's been doing it for months now. I’d re-sign him but not even close to what he thinks he is worth. Hughes made you.

Agreed. We supposedly made a 6.5M offer and something around that is all he's worth at this point. He can take a short term deal and prove otherwise if he thinks differently.

 

[Rotang]

Pickard hasn't had to make an A+ save in 4 periods now. The best he's made is maybe a C+ or even a C. Come on

This. It's such a missed opportunity that he is 80 minutes into this series and we still haven't properly tested him.

 

[canuckking1]

Oilers are blowing the zone early and cheating for offence. Worked in the first…… let’s see how it works in the second

 

[Sedinery]

I do feel the fix is in from the nhl

League wants McDavid in the finals

How else do you explain the goalie interference call? Or the non call on the holding of Myers stick ?

 

[MS]

Somehow not getting a PP out of the sequence at the end of the period is a joke.

Team overall looks much more dangerous today.

Hronek 8 years at $6.25 million would be a good deal for both sides i feel

 

[StickShift]

Harman pointed out Cole played against Draisaitl at 5v5 the most of all Canucks defenders in the first period. What are we even doing, there…?

I imagine that’s more of a consequence of Cole, rather than by design.

 

[Lenny Levino]

Vancouver plays better when they're behind on the score. At least so far in this series. I'm not worried. Edmonton will fall apart in the third period like they've done in all the other games.

 

[canuckking1]

Hronek played that 2on1 terribly. Brown is a guy who’s scored once in like 60 games

Take the pass FFS

 

[Lat]

At least Myers got a free punch out of it

 

[bbud]

Absolutely, we've got a couple of huge off seasons ahead of us to see if Allvin can clean-up some of our roster and help us leap into the upper echelon of contenders.

Honestly we are seeing 2 years of management making this team better and I do believe they will continue only need a few pieces.
We weren't supposed to make playoffs lol

Take away that insane point streak fueled by Hughes, Miller and Pettersson at the beginning of the season and his season looks very average.

 

[Grip it N RYP it]

My younger sister had a crush on Dutchyshen many many years ago.

Not sure why.

She called him Dutches.

RIP

Its sus but we could just play better.

They'll never reach the finals anyway.

 

[crazychimp]

Sit Cole or play 7 D to get Friedman in the game. Probably should have tried this a game earlier though.

You should always take the pass in a 2v1 and believe in ur goalie to save the shot

Dude was jacked and charismatic, it checks out

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Hate all you want, Kane has been the big difference maker in the last two games. Annoying that they let him go from ending up in the bench to becoming a threat.

 

[CanucksSayEh]

Hughes should be on the ice every second McDrai are, and then some.

That's how cups are won, riding top players into the dirt.

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

Not trading for Tanev was a big mistake. Canucks have zero depth to cover for their weak bottom 3, and Oilers are just feasting on defensive miscues.

Kind of like I’ve been dying all year…

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Wyatt Johnson is going to absolutely light Pickard into a different sport if the Oilers advance.

I have full faith in this management team, and I agree, I think Allvin and co can take this roster to the next level. I'm very excited!
