coolboarder Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 If we played like that in last few minutes all series long, that is our defense by playing with the puck possession. That is our strength and we abandoned that all playoffs. How did we ever come away with that strategy that was successful in the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post -dlc- Posted May 21 Popular Post Share Posted May 21 I don't buy that the Oilers are a powerhouse. Flashes of brilliance and a whole lot of diving, whining and embellishing. That'll be their demise. I haven't given up hope yet in this game....but, if they do take it hope the Stars mop the floor with them. 4 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team now knows what it's go further into other rounds. We gotta find ways to get shots on net, and figure out our pp. Their top players outplayed ours by large margin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthMelvin Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Its tough... Even if we make past the oilers the Dallas stars will eat us alive lol. The Oilers wont make it past The stars either. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learning lesson yes but there are way too many passengers still on this team. Petey is one of them right now. He’s got to take a long look in the mirror. He was garbage. Yup I had the same feeling..

Taphouse Canuck Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 I wonder what the score would be if we'd started with the energy they are now showing? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHL97OneTimer Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Thought I would support the Oil if they win this series.......not sure I want to now. First, not loving the diving. Second, my energy level for hockey has just dropped significantly. So sad to see the Canucks come out flat these two games. I was expecting tonight to be bad given that they didn't have the "put the foot on the throat" approach last game. They're playing like they're banged up, tired and just done.

Just build from here and go deeper next year.. experience. The oilers have been in the playoffs for years. This is just another building step for us too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd. Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Ah well, it was nice while it lasted. all in all, it was a great season. Lots of work left to do. 28.7M of cap space to play with this off season and a bunch of decisions to make in regards to UFA’s we want to keep Id only consider bringing back Joshua and Zadorov if he asks for a reasonable price. DeSmith, Lafferty, Cole, Myers, Blueger can all walk. Hronek and Mikheyev traded. use that cap space to get some better talent for the top 6 and a better RHD. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canucklehead Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 (edited) All the canucks need to do is score 4 goals to win without giving up anything. Right now I'm just hoping to not get shutout. But I'm going down with the ship. Probably last game for a while. Edited May 21 by Canucklehead 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amplified0ne Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Just now, Jaimito said: 20 mins left. All in. Need a miracle now. But really need to break the shutout first early to have a chance. We've created like 1 high danger chance in 40mins. They seem to go quietly in these types of games. But at least make them suffer with some hits or something...we are playing like a pre-season game.

No he's worth 13.9 that's why he's not scoring. He wants another raise first! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YourTimeisNow Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Just brutal. I thought there was actually a culture change here. Out-manned, out-hustled and out-executed. I get you might lose this game regardless, but this is embarrassing. 3 game sevens in our recent history with no goals. See you next year… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWJC Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 1 minute ago, D.B Cooper said: Well, Looks like it’s going to be a Canucks playoff special. Only play for 10 out of 60 minutes, make a push and lose. It was a great season folks. We overachieved big time and have a lot to be stoked about. Unfortunately I can’t say the best team won, because the oilers are a bunch of fucking douchebags and this series should have been over a couple days ago, but what are you gonna do? We didn’t show up. Sucks to suck. Im going to finish the game and cheer them on, but I have zero faith in this group today. They don’t deserve to win We don’t suck, dude. we had a fairy tale season and major success given what was expected. we ended up better than 24 other teams. That’s ahead of our projected curve. Time to build on it. I’m excited for the offseason. please bring back Z. That’s my only demand 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
