Final score is going to be 4-0...  Just like on the darkest day in Canucks history to add insult to injury.

 

If I could hug you, I would.

I don’t see it that way, we dummied ourselves with the lazy plays and not following through on checks, Boston isn’t playing exceptionally well and that’s the definition of putting on a clinic.

Canucks don’t show up on to arguably the biggest road game of the year?! That’s a shocker.

Our big hulking D has played some soft soft hockey tonight. Disappointing. I bet Garland would beat Myers up in a fight. That chaos giraffe needs to go! 

Yes go get us beers Myers and snacks

[Canuckfanforlife82]

Tochett “ We played soft.” I think we may hear this again. “Who are we to think we are anything?”

I agree!

 

Lay some body out there. Make them feel this win, not just skate off with it.

[NucksFan]

Awe, just score one goal and move on boys 

just no shut out for them …

I hope we don’t play Boston in the finals.. I don’t see us coming out ahead. 

We need to not lose beforehand..

The bruins handled them easily.  It was easy to get Van off their game.  Bruins have been on cruise mode since the first goal

Agree its due to us making a few shit plays unfortunately. Without those two SHG its a different game. The PP let us down.

[Devron]

At least Kuzy scored again 

[hockeyville88]

Sucks that it wasn’t even a competitive game

[NGK]

Stinker of a game, bound to happen sometime.  Canucks will bounce back !

[DarthMelvin]

Box out??? Thats interference in my book. No reason to touch another player without the puck. 

 

I dislike Shortys new commentator buddy.

That's just it. Boston is playing such a good game because they are pressuring hard. Forcing us to make bad passes. Their penalty kill was super aggressive. They are making cross ice passes. They are jumping up on the rush so forwards are losing their coverage.

The reason the canucks are playing so poorly is because Boston is playing so well. 

Team hasn't even had a real sniff at a goal, and that's not because the canucks aren't good. They are good. 

But Boston has them on the ropes.

[OldFaithfulcap]

Well fun early game vs the wings next yuck

Good.    Any cliff jumping on here yet?  

Kuz scored two games in a row, who's ready to jump?

This game is eerily similar to game 7.

 

This is the type of effort they put up. In game 7. With Stanley in their building.

 

 

Just a broken team. I hate the Bruins.

[AnotherCanucksFan]

I also think that this should be the cue for Tocchet to start playing DeSmith more games. The Bruins have fresher goalies. Tonight the Canucks should have rested Demko, because it was really a wasted game for him.

Emm no. They aren't. We got caught by the law of averages tonight. Boston isn't doing anything special

Well let’s face it. They gave up! That’s what concerns me.

Yeah that is the most surprising thing. I thought the Canucks would have shown they were going to play good hockey today, but instead shot themselves in the foot several times. The most embarrassing game this year.

Stop the icing unless there's cake  involved
