This seems to happen a lot, it can cost you genes . Need to be Better thereThat is the part near the end of the game in crunch time that really was disappointing and somewhat surprising. Our 2 best faceoff guys getting destroyed on crucial draws, with one of them ultimately, indirectly causing the tying goal. I get that you can't win 'em all, but wow, we need better performance than that. As you said, none of the draws were even contested.
Luck, the word is luck. You shoot pucks randomly into feet, 8 times out of 10 they aren't scoring chances.They played nearly perfectly in their own end and it still was a close one goal game.
Don't care what anyone says, the Canucks are a great and deep team. Oilers will need three more games as good defensively as their last game or better in order to have a chance to prevail.
It does help when your opposing D-man is trying to play goal in the slot.Luck, the word is luck. You shoot pucks randomly into feet, 8 times out of 10 they aren't scoring chances.

Nurse wasn't credited for a hit- but he definitely had hits last game. Him and VD were physical.Describe horrendous.. People tend to see what they want to see.. Nurse managed to play through that whole game without registering a single hit, has been taking stupid penalties , had only 16mins TOi and was a minus 2.
Ceci played over 18mins and was solid aside from normal screw ups. Don't think I'm convincing anyone here that Ceci is alright but last night he was good enough.
Doesn't matter, you ride Pickard til he loses a game.
I mean a high number of shots making it through or getting deflected on us is because Darnell Nurse is screening his own goalie and/or having it go off him into the net instead of being more aggressive or letting his goalie see the shot.??

AH yes, Nurse scoring on himself more than other players because reasons. I had forgotten.I mean a high number of shots making it through or getting deflected on us is because Darnell Nurse is screening his own goalie and/or having it go off him into the net instead of being more aggressive or letting his goalie see the shot.
I'm not disagreeing that the nucks have had horseshoes up their collective behinds all year, and last game was just the latest example in a long line.AH yes, Nurse scoring on himself more than other players because reasons. I had forgotten.
Again, last game "being close" is a perfect example of the Nucks' season.
Really bad takeIt does help when your opposing D-man is trying to play goal in the slot.
What are you disagreeing with?Really bad take
The Canucks are a weird team that I can't figure out. On paper their roster is really good but they have an insanely lucky shooting percentage. I've never seen anything like it and I have no clue how they manage to do it.They played nearly perfectly in their own end and it still was a close one goal game.

I like our Gene don't want to loose him.This seems to happen a lot, it can cost you genes . Need to be Better there
11-7 is the way to go. Broberg would help take some mins off the guys especially for the guys playing hurt and playoffs experience would go a long way for him.Think we need to go with Pickard again given our last win. Both Pickard and the team found confidence in his play and look ready to go forward.
wonder if we do the 11-7 this game? Seems that Ekholm has been banged up and may be helpful having Broberg available if needed.
Autocorrect , what can I sayI like our Gene don't want to loose him.
I didn't like the Desharnais shot block attempt on Boeser for the Joshua deflection goal that tied up the game. The block attempt didn't impede Boeser at all. Desharnais took himself out of the play.Luck, the word is luck. You shoot pucks randomly into feet, 8 times out of 10 they aren't scoring chances.
There have been way too many goals scored on us going off of our Dmen the past couple yrs with Nurse leading the way. There is something that we do that differs from all other teams (minus Cole)What are you disagreeing with?
For clarity: my argument is not "don't block shots", my argument is "don't block shots like Nurse".
It's a fast game... VD would be getting all the praises had he blocked that pass and killed that play. Nurse could've been in perfect spot had the puck deflected differently.. he was in front of the 2 forwards on the first goal against which seemed wrong and was behind the two nick forwards in 2nd goal which also seemed wrong.I didn't like the Desharnais shot block attempt on Boeser for the Joshua deflection goal that tied up the game. The block attempt didn't impede Boeser at all. Desharnais took himself out of the play.
For once Nurse wasn't screening the goaltender but he was on the wrong side of the play, TWO Canucks were standing right in front of the net... Nurse needs to battle to get better positioning. Boeser shouldn't have had those targets.
WTF was Nurse doing on the far post, what was he accomplishing there? You never see that.
That was a freebie for the Canucks.
