Man I would rather just bring the lotto line back

Why? I’d give Joshua or Garland the opportunity to play with Miller and Boeser instead. At least then, there’s the possibility that something actually might happen.

Canucks needed to challenge first goal. The puck is dead on the ice, Pred crashes goalie, and it goes in off goalie’s momentum backwards. How is that a good goal?

If blueger wasn't there it would have been overturned but the fact he was there would give the refs ample excuse to say Blueger caused the Pred player to fall and push Silvos and the puck in.

 

Also think we would beem 2 man short if we lose that one as they scored on the pp.

Not even one shot on the PP. Absolute nightmare. 

In fairness Nashville's first 3 PPs looked like shit.  It took a 4th for them to get one.

We’re never on the pp to begin with

 

Bruh, we were 0/2 tonight

 

0/2 the other night

 

2/3 the game for that, was the difference maker in a 2-1 win

 

0/4 in game 2

 

0/2 in game 1

 

We've gotten powerplays, but for the most part we've done nothing with them

I don’t agree that the goal would be overturned. Its easy to criticize Tocchet in hindsight, but he had faith we’d be able to score a second goal. Our top guys were no-shows offensively tonight. Pettersson is going to get A TON of blame

Coaches are supposed to coach and give their players a chance to win.  Coaches have been coasting and making excuses as much as 40.

Lindholm is not a good fit for josh and garly. They should move him to center pettey and hogs and move mik to 4th. Blueger will be a better fit.

Thank you. Go back to what was working before the Joshua injury. Put Petey on Lindholms wing. Nils Aman is more than capable of centering a 4th line. Draw in Podz for some energy on the 4th line too.

Nothing to do with it. Canucks had PPs. We were outshot again and our stars pulled another no show. 

Yeah, and Nashville had how many more PPs? Twice as many. Including the one that led to them tying the game, when Evangelista turned into the hit?

 

Shots were 22-20... barely outshot.

 

Anyhow, being outshot doesn't bother me. It was a close game, and contrary to the other games in the series, we had a number of high percentage chances. Not much went our way today.

Why are our superstars a hand of stone all of the sudden?  Free up the squeezed stick and let it flow.   We just don't adjust to them and play the same stupid game and fell for their traps.  The Pred made some adjustments to their PK and it showed.  We just try too hard with pretty passes again that just won't work at all.  If there is nothing with any open man, just shoot and hope for a dirty goals.  Or even if they blocked shots, just shoot some more or find some open man after any blocked shot rebounds.

No one asked you.

Yet...not an unreasonable assumption given the way the Canucks have been playing.  But Homer's gotta home

Its really simple.

 

Tocchet has to realize his offensive lines aren't working and put together something different that does work.  20 shots is not enough.

 

Whether that means putting the Lotto line back together or putting Lindholm on Pettersson's line, or on Miller's line, or what, but he needs to try something different.

 

I watched Suter and Mikheyev squander multiple gold plated scoring chances... we need finishers playing with Miller and Pettersson's lines.

 

 

Maybe time to put Petey with Garland and Joshua.  Let Lindholm, Hogs and Mikheyev be a checking unit.
