ROR had a clear path to the net. That was Oiler-esque.

He’s having himself a night.

Stetcher has made some very costly positional errors lately.

Edler was already in the corner. where the fuck are you going?
overtime - Didn't recognize he needed to drift to the middle when Hughes was deep

I'm not sure we win another Game. Oreilly is taking over and we have zero answer for him and Horvat went ice cold as has the PP. If we lose tonight we don't win another game. blues are too good. We need a 3-1 lead in the series and Allen won't fold like Binnington..

 

[puckhead]

that's a weak fucking call when Perron has been getting contact on markstom all fucking series


nice to see Blais in a full shield.
at least Roussel for value for his 2 minutes.

wrong net Edler.

Kelly Sutherland loves sticking it to Vancouver.

we need to get one before the end of the period...

gain some momentum

 

[puckhead]

virtanen needed to put that guy in the third row on that forecheck at the end of the period.


brou haha time
shake shit up.

Captain Obvious says this is a huge PP for the Canucks.

Nothing. At all.

 

[naslundfan19]

Not sure why we pulled Markstrom. Being one skater up has had zero impact on this game.

 

[Judge Fudge]

We seem a lil out of sync tonight.

Missed shots, Blobbled pucks and passes

Maybe the back to back may have threw us off

 

[naslundfan19]

Nice to know that our guys can get leg whipped and they won’t get called for it.

 

[puckhead]

ok, we're boned. Blues have woken up.
that hurts - 24 hours ago, they were a goal away from going up 3-0 in the series


oh well, at least we broke the playoff streak.
building blocks for the team. until we need to blow it up for 4th line related cap issues

Well we could blow it up or we could kick in the door, go running in screaming our asses off and try to fight this demon.

I don't know about you but I ain't calling it.

anything you saw today to give you optimism?

our only chance was to jump one them quick before they shook the rust off (done)
and then hang in there to saw off the rest of the games (not done)

i hope for the best, but the team that showed up tonight is fucked.
could be fatigue setting in as blues slept through their exhibition games, and we've had 8 playoff games in 15 days.

Not really no.

Hopefully we get some Wednesday night.

iirc ROR ate them alive at evens in games 1 & 2 and the canucks won those games

if the canucks just scored 1 pp goal and killed 1 extra penalty tonight they would have gone to overtime (also if my aunt had nuts shed look like bob mackenzie)

i think the canucks were mentally and physically tired tonight. They also looked very perimeter... much like game 1 v wild. Green should have really thought more on bringing a hungry gaudette in tonight to provide a jolt (he could have also helped pp2 ... thought jakes shifts on that were horrible tonight...zero urgency from him)

If this was regular playoffs i think id be more likely to write the canucks off ... But here there is no long travel day for game 5 IN st louis. Just a rest day where they can have the feeling of having their backs to the wall and knowing that theyre now in a best of 3 against the reigning cup champs which they would have taken from the start

who knows ... maybe st lou feels like theyre back baby !!!! (AS EVERYONE AND THEIR DOG IS SAYING RIGHT NOW) and have a let down next game

Its not over

Maybe he got his kneecaps replaced
