In the end it’s not blocking that final shot and Juulsen that cost us this one. And Sutherland in game 2 let’s hope he’s still not in Roger’s Arena waiting for us.
If anyone told us we'd be tied 2 to 2 with them in second round in August we'd laugh .Soucy back for game 5, home ice.
We came back 2 goals down, unfortunate it ended that way.
Onto game 5.
Canucks winning that game would have been hilarious, they were outplayed for 90% of the game until the last 5 mins.
If he had played Miller a bit less, then he might have been a bit more clear headed for that final shift. I get it, he's usually the best center we have in that situation. But tonight Lindholm was playing better and you still have Blueger for faceoff backup. Also not sure why you play Boeser in that situation, since he wasn't playing as well defensively as in previous games. Why not Lindholm, Blueger, and one of Joshua/Garland/Suter?JT Miller blowing the zone on that play also a very bad look, just kinda bad all around, lost focus when they needed to get it to OT and get a chance to reset.

He CANNOT wait until we pull the goalie in the third f***ing period before making adjustments like playing Miller less in the rare game where he isn't carrying the team. He has to read the game and how his team is playing.
He's gotten away with it so far but you can see it costing us games in both series.
The reliability and stability of "the system" is both a strength but also a weakness if taken as a dogmatic strategy vs a pragmatic one.And yet he doesn’t seem able to do that. It’s like he can’t get a read on the flow of the game once it gets going.
NGL, sometimes I feel like getting outplayed 90% of the time is the only way Canucks have been winning. The only difference is if Canucks get a lead, then they just shell up and wait for the time to go down, while getting outplayed.
He’s a f***ing troll pretending to be a Canucks fan. Probably some Edmonton fan just coming here to stir shit up.Here's my question: What is your problem?
It puzzles me that you can't seem to accept the fact that a good number of the fans, after having gone through the full fury of Dimbo's Reign of Error, are willing to chill out and just enjoy the game.
If the team wins, great. If they don't, on to the next. If this was the turning point and they went on to lose the series, so f***ing what? Will it satisfy you for us to all lose our shit and turn into a clown show for the Oiler fans to point and laugh at? Or will you only get a kick out of being proven right? I already made my stance clear as day: I'm proud of what they've done this season. Win or lose, they've defied pretty much all expectations and surprised a lot of people. My faith in the team and our management have been revitalized, something I didn't think would happen for at least a decade.
Ironically thats exactly what juulsen was doing when he gave up the odd man rush.Ironically, both Draisaitl and Ekholm are in a lot of pain and if we just hit them some more, I bet they wouldn't be playing so well.
These are all good learning experiences for this core.

Which we've seen in these playoffs already.
A little adjustment would be useful for us I think!
Yeah pretty obvious at this point what is happening.He’s a f***ing troll pretending to be a Canucks fan. Probably some Edmonton fan just coming here to stir shit up.
Team should be motivated for game 5.
Silovs was great, they need to score on the PP for game 5.
Series tied 2-2 now.
Should've, would've, could've. Also, this should be a wake up call for Hronek, he cost the team the game, that's on him. Play better.
