Post-Game Talk: [46] Canucks defeat Maple Leafs | 6-4 ( Hoglander(2), Garland(2), Miller, & Pettersson) | Jones-Town Massacre

[just22]

I love the win but can we not turtle every time we get a lead and maybe try to keep up the offensive pressure?

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

This is a really underwhelming highlight pack for Demmer until they got to the part where he lost his stick. Honestly pretty brutal until then. Good that the team can overcome poor goaltending this season. Really a big sign of how much they've grown versus the goalies just bailing them out every game.

People would look at the stats and think Demko played great

But the reality is that he let in 2 softies early when the team was leading comfortably. That’s a momentum breaker

Can we all please bow our heads and pray for the Flames in their impending fight against the evil that is the Oilers…

f*** the Flames

 

[Flik]

All aboard!!!!!

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Great start and then Toronto came out flying in the second. Last year the team would have folded after that tying short handed goal. Good push back after that from the PP to grab the lead back.
Fun game to watch!

Kelly gonna have a little nip of wine for the Calgary game to make sure he’s got a proper glow on.

.714 vs .915

Shoot that sweet PDO straight into my veins.

 

[SillyRabbit]

Can we get a top-tier faceoff coach please?

Leafs poached Malholtra from us and it couldn't have been more clear the value he brings tonight.

 

[Shareefruck]

I guess I'm the only person who didn't find that game especially entertaining compared to others? The first period was fantastic, but what's entertaining about collapsing for a period and then playing conservatively for another?

There have been some ridiculously entertaining full 60 minute games this year.

Also, I just want to give Blueger a bit of credit for being rock solid again, critical to those late game penalty kills, and quietly picking up another couple of points without getting any attention from anyone. I am so glad that Pettersson didn't get put on that line for the rest of the game, because that oddly makes the line worse and more disorganized. Pettersson should get time between Hoglander/Lafferty when they get split up-- Aman doesn't really add much to it, unlike Blueger does to his line.

Unsung hero.

I don't have the exact numbers, but I feel like he might actually be the highest scoring of the three since the line's been formed, right?

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Nice to see us actually pull through and overcome a near choke job while bailing Demko out of a terrible second period.

It's satisfying smacking the Leafs. And them whining the refs cost them the comeback makes it even better.

Do the Canucks have a faceoff coach? If not, they should get one

Where is Manny Malholtra?

f*** the Flames

More than the Oilers?

And then made 19 saves in the 3rd period. More than made up for it

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Where is Manny Malholtra?


More than the Oilers?

Manny was in Toronto but got fired

Tell me more about this french onion inspired pizza...

More than the Oilers?

For me, absolutely

 

[thecupismine]

That second period probably invoked the Tocchet "Who are we to think we're anybody" speech That was incredibly awful from the entire team, including Demko.

1st and 3rd periods were much better obviously, but hopefully they can get that nonsense out of their system by the time April rolls around. Entertaining game, but entertaining in the way you only want to see it once a month kind of thing.

That Tyler Bertuzzi has got quite the smooth brain.

ah the leafs, investing in two dumbasses’ dumbass sons

 

[BWJM]

Now time for the battle of Alberta after a big Canucks W

 

[Slapshot_11]

I think we gotta stop getting big leads in the first period, we seem to just shit the bed the next period

 

[Lemmiwinks]

Getting to watch Packers v 49ers and maybe second half of BoA after watching this game is shaping up to be a pretty clutch Saturday night

 

[Cogburn]

ah the leafs, investing in two dumbasses’ dumbass sons
