Happens to every team, not just the Canuucks. Also, that’s what good goalies do. That's a big generalization. Here's a recent game where Carolina got out to a 2-0 lead on the Leafs. Shots were even through the entire game. https://www.hockey-reference.com/boxscores/202312300TOR.html Anyways, I'm 110% certain that tocchet and most of the Canucks wouldn't be happy allowing nearly 50 shots against, even though they won.

They said the same about Kings.... and then they vanished. 1 bird in the hand better than 2 in the bush... Don't need to convince me of that... convince the annoying Oilers fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd be happy with the first and very unhappy with the rest.

We won! Our won’t make excuses. They aren’t whiners like Dahlin. As fans we will. The club is still recovering from the 7 games in 10 days in 10 different rinks road trip. They had not jump in their first game back, but still knew how to win. Their legs died in Period two last night, but still knew how to win. We are a great club. Accept that fact. Now Bow to the Empties. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myers has cost us many goals previously. Personally, and I don’t need anyone to agree with me, i truly believe he will cost the team when it really matters, in the playoffs. I don’t trust Myers as a reliable Dman. Enough is enough. Christ, give it a rest. Myers has been solid all year. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post EdgarM Posted January 21 Popular Post Share Posted January 21 7 hours ago, Ghostsof1915 said: Wonder how long before Shanny and Brad are shown the door. The funny thing anyone could have told them the Leafs are a top heavy team. Trade Nylander and get a centre prospect, a defensive prospect and a pick. But oh no..... No matter how much cap space they have in the offseason. That team is screwed. The big difference between our management group and theirs? We know how to build a team and they just have the mindset to just appease their stars, at all costs. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's enough? Just close the book and be happy that they got outshot 19-6 where their goalie had to play lights out? That's the approach and attitude of a team that would never move forward. I can guarantee you 110% that Tocchet and most of the Canucks didn't view that period as a positive. Happy with results doesn't necessarily mean happy with how they got there. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
