Things to look for tonight

 

Petey disappearing act

The powerless play

Tocchet neglecting to use his time out 

Damn.

 

Who could have predicted that. 

 

Glad I stayed up till 1230 to watch Petey get more sleep than me.

[viking mama]

What has happened???

 

TSN turning point, bad calls & non-calls by the officials.

 

Canucks special teams are their chief Achilles heel….and there’s the game. 

[wai_lai416]

Special team the difference again.. tocchet needs to relinquish pp1 like now.. he teaches 0 movement 0 creativity defensive powerplay..

[RU SERIOUS]

I wonder if Tocket going to say "This is just a learning lesson for the guys"..........at game 72 !

[Sapper]

No person who is a hockey fan could accept the officiating we got tonight. 

 

I don't know if it's gross incompetence, game management or something else

 

There was 2 very very different levels of officiating in each team.

If officiating is going to be this bad at least let it be equally bad to everyone so it's a level playing field

PK cost them.  2 goals against 

Lets just agree to say SPECIAL TEAMS in general cost us.

One has nothing to do with the other.  Blueger high sticked him and called.  It was a penalty and he should have known better and been better.  He cost his team points, plain and simple

One doesn’t negate the other either. Call the game consistently, the refs didn’t do anything close to that tonight.

Nah what happened was bush as fuck if you’re going to ignore a play that can cripple a guy you can ignore a tap 

[Rick_theRyper]

Man gutless in the end. This team is not ready for the playoffs yet 

[AnotherCanucksFan]

And I'm out. WTF. Are they ever going to clinch a playoff spot. TWO games now against playoff headed teams. Now Dallas is 3 ahead of us.

Follow through, even shorty and ferraro said that

9.5 x out of 10 that’s a call and you damn well know it is

This is the kind of game where the refs need to be made available post game.

 

You can't have a missed baseball swing, followed by a missed interference, then have a so-so penalty decide the game with 3 mins left.

What does it matter if the pp is complete garbage for three months now? It’s been shot and they haven’t fixed it so what does it matter?

[Canucklehead]

Limping into the playoffs is never a recipe for success.

You still bitching?

[Smashian Kassian]

The ice is so bad. We almost need another bubble.

I'm sick of seeing him hunched over, looking around with great intensity.

There was no adjustment to cover the guy in the high slot. 

 

Yeah gotta limit Myer's time on ice in the high leverage situations

[Jaimito]

Otter better than Casey tonight for sure. 

 

Not that Nux loss because of Casey.  Otter has been that good

The fuck we paying Petey 11.6 for? Guys a ghost against good competition. 

For real, paid top 5 in the league, and i dont even know if hes a top 5 player on our team. 

[OldFaithfulcap]

Well joshua looked great.

 

Lines need to settle a bit.

 

Simplify the damn pp, take suter off.

 

Need juulsen and cole, no myers.

 

Need shooting practice.

 

No demko, could be worse.

 

We'll crawl into playoffs then get hot. Why not. 

[GrammaInTheTub]

Coaches challenge and a timeout in one game? Tocchets doing too much (read: sarcasm)

[CaribouCanuck]

If this is how this team handles pressure then this is a recipe for disaster in the playoffs.
