The Canucks have not shown they are ones to give up. I certainly don't think it's over. Im not hooting and hollering yet. Still 20 left.

 

[Kristopher Letang]

They win this game with the Sedins.

Come on bro.

 

[Kranix]

the fact they got to the second round game seven with a third string goaltender, is amazing.

Such disrespect for Silovs.

 

[fahad203]

I rarely use the word choke...and give the oilers credit...but it's not even McDrai.

But damn Vancouver...brutal

Every once in a while, a team over achieves. Vancouver is it this year
See Kraken

 

[ThrowDemTongs]

To share some positive BC news: Pickton is near death.

Not sure why Vancouver Canuck generate shots no shots. All Playoffs

I dont think they are out of it because Skinner implodes all the time but you still need to put shots on net

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Vancouver fans were told this, but they thought they were going all the way on their first rodeo.

You almost never see a team miss with the playoffs for many many years and then all of a sudden make it, then go win the cup that same year. I don't think that's ever happened.

 

[HolyGhost]

gotta ask what is up with Pettersson, Hoglander and Garland this series. EP has one goal in 12 games? Garland 2 in 12 and Hoglander 1 in 10

 

[MK9]

Are things in place to prevent a rehash of 2011? Or does that only happen if they get to the SCF?

 

[Dust]

I'm not playing with the fire that is karma, still a full period to go.

Yes... now i'm worried

I think Van is going to be very good for a long time - unfortunately

With all their UFAs due for big raises, Canucks won't be getting better by much, if at all. By virtue of this being their first postseason, expectations couldn't have been too crazy, but it's not like they have a long window here. All of their stars (invisible or not) are 25+ and Miller could be declining as soon as next year. Not to mention EP has proven that he simply cannot play playoff hockey. There's nothing to figure out either, you can only do so much when you're 170 lbs.

 

[Givememoneyback]

Is anyone going to watch this period?

 

[goflyakite]

(Haven’t watched the game)

Going into this game I picked the Oilers, but damn, that’s a sad performance from Vancouver unless they pull a Rangers in the third period.

 

[HolyGhost]

At least Lindholm has shown WHY vancouver got him

 

[Skate2Stick]

3-0. The most dangerous lead in hockey, this game is not over yet.

 

[jackjohnson]

Wonder if JT Miller asks for trade

Nah, his best friend, is Boeser and he loves playing for Canucks. McDavid and Drai though, might be a different story. Once the oilers get swept next round, they might ask for a trade

 

[Tebowz]

we have come back from 3 this series already . game is not over

 

[Sunan]

The takes are so bad in this thread

 

[Oilslick941611]

IF they can keep the team together. They have a lot of UFA's. Including 5 of the top D on the team

I think they're mentally done. They looked like the Avs in game 4 after finding out about Nichushkin. Gotta think the Boeser news was a huge distraction.

​

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Depth will take a hit and the Canucks have been massively exposed. The rest of the league will take notes on shutting down the offense. I doubt we even make the playoffs next year.

I just think Vancouver has ran out of gas. The entire team looks exhausted. This is a team that is not used to playoff hockey, playing a game every second night.

To share some positive BC news: Pickton is near death.

He's not getting off that easy. Hopefully he's getting top notch medical care to keep that ticker ticking.

 

[Skolman]

3-0. The most dangerous lead in hockey, this game is not over yet.

Actually, a 2 goal lead is...
