Honestly, as a Canucks fan, I feel like considering the situation, the Oilers are now the favorite of this series and the pressure is on them instead. I'm certainly not expecting much, and kind of haven't since Demko went down.

As well as Silovs has played, who knows how exposable he is by a team that actually knows what they're doing offensively, and the team definitely plays more conservatively in front of him/DeSmith, limiting their offensive ability.

Can't wait to zaddy smoke one of mcdrai

He got exposed last time he played them in the playoffs.

TBH my concern with the Canucks isn't with goaltending (McDavid and Drai are going to get theirs no matter what) but with their offense.

Pettersson is a shell of himself and Hughes was bullied bigtime in the first round.

When the Canucks beat the Oilers at the beginning of the season, it was because they had a high powered offense.

If the Canucks can't figure out how to score at least one PP goal per game, they'll lose in 5.

 

[CokenoPepsi]

Canucks in 5

 

[Yultron]

If the Leafs win tomorrow, it’ll be the first time in 20 years three Canadian teams have made the second round.

The Leafs better win tomorrow , they need to break their curse against the Bruins , history is not on their side , but I’m confident the curse is eclipsed tomorrow .

Edmonton will be no easy matchup , there are playing in a whole other level since Woodcroft got fired and almost won the division

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Is Demko done for the playoffs or is he expected back at some point?

 

[BlueBull]

this will be the most toxic thread in hf history

Fellow Victoria Native, you clearly didn't see the thread for the Toronto Montreal Series back in 2021.

 

[MikeK]

Lol. All the EDM fans and others who don't fallow the Canucks and think EDM are going to overpower the Canucks. EDM are in for it with Vancouver. Vancouver has the depth to match any team in the league. This will not be an easy series for either team.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Nashville is a much better team than LA. And Vancouver beat them in six. If Edmonton versus Nashville faced off Edmonton would lose.

Did you watch the 2022 series where McDavid abused Zadorov?

 

[Killer Orcas]

this will be the most toxic thread in hf history

Only until the thread for Canucks Leafs final in few weeks

 

[docbenton]

They are, you seriously think that the Canuck’s can shut down McDavid?

Anyone can be killed.

 

[Chairman Maouth]

Oilers have trended up as the year progressed while Nucks trended down. On paper many will pick Vancouver but the oilers look like a freight train right now. Have Edmonton in 6.

I remember the predictions about the Oilers early in the season until the Canucks broke them.

 

[DFAC]

What's the status on demko?

Mostly unknown but rumour is he could be back by the late 2nd round

 

[jackjohnson]

Who the hell is Arturs Silovs?

Oilers in 7

Canucks will sweep the oilers again. Going for back to back sweeps. One in regular season and one in playoffs

 

[Three On Zero]

Is Demko done for the playoffs or is he expected back at some point?

He’s back on the ice taking part in practices

 

[bringbacktheskate604]

You just watched that garbage from the Canucks and come to that conclusion lol. Canucks look like garbage. The Oilers learned the hard way that team you play in the regular season isn't the team you play in the playoffs. Canucks will learn. 2022 Flames all over again. The real question is whether the Oilers will destroy the Canuck's entire franchise like they did the Flames.

Lol. Nashville played a hell of a defensive system, the oilers suck defensively. One team played playoff hockey and won, the other feasted on a team that couldn't stop a beachball.
The oilers were terrible on D and the nucks will expose these losers.

Nashville is a much better team than LA. And Vancouver beat them in six. If Edmonton versus Nashville faced off Edmonton would lose.

You’re an absolute pretzel.

Partially high powered offense, partially Oilers goalies rocking a .750.

If the Leafs win tomorrow, it’ll be the first time in 20 years three Canadian teams have made the second round.

Unfortunately only 2 will be moving on

 

[McShogun99]

I remember last year when Edmonton lost to a 3rd string goalie in round 2……

 

[vcanuck]

I don't think mcPP is ready for that team defence

 

[soothsayer]

Can't wait to zaddy smoke one of mcdrai

You're going to be disappointed. They shredded that goof when he played for Calgary, despite assurances from Calgary fans that we would demolish them. Zadorov is the Hall Gill of Andy Suttons.

 

[nuxnux1]

Can’t wait

 

[Bizzare]

I just want this to be the most toxic series of all time.

Pretty sure it’s going to be up there
