Sestito!

2 pts away from David Clarkson!

and 5 million dollar cheaper

That was the only 3rd period since December I can recall the Canucks actually outplayed a team.

I can't tell how much of that was the Canucks and how much of that was the Blues just being horrendous.

 

[CCF23]

So that's what winning feels like...

Well played game. Would've liked another goal or three, but I won't complain. Win's a win.

 

[Addison Rae]

3-0 against the Blues.

 

[Win One Before I Die]

I forgot what it was like to cheer for a good NHL team.

 

[TruKnyte]

Edler had a good game, hopefully this carries over to Friday.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Ugh, that game was so not worth winning. We eek out a 1-0 game...for what??

Was nice I guess.

Hopefully every other ****** team below us wins.

 

[deckercky]

St. Louis doesn't look like a cup contender. No clue why they think they need Ryan Miller.

Eh, sometimes teams just have another teams number (remember when the Blues were terrible, but swept the Canucks in the season series, keeping the Canucks out of the playoffs?). Aside from when they play the Canucks, they're a great team with inconsistent goaltending. They lack elite talent up front, but beyond that and goaltending, there's not much to complain about on their roster.

Once the goal was scored I turned the TV off.
I didn't realize it was us.
I thought I was dreaming.

Funny how habits are formed.

 

[PG Canuck]

Congratulations Vancouver.

You're welcome for the entertaining game.

Canucks shutout St.Louis . First time Blues have been held without a goal this season.

I'll take it.

 

[Wetcoaster]

and we swept the season series 3-0 who saw that coming?

 

[John Bender*]

Nice to see them finally shut a team down for a full game. No fire drills in their own end tonight.

 

[Addison Rae]

Ugh, that game was so not worth winning. We eek out a 1-0 game...for what??

To make the playoffs? Seriously, people even complain if we win

 

[PG Canuck]

Just need to make playoffs and play St. Louis in the first round.

 

[luongo321]

If they do make the playoffs, and that's a BIG if, the Blues are the best team to face... Wouldn't think so when looking at the teams on paper but the Canucks have this weird ability to outplay the Blues whenever they play them, no matter how bad they are.

Don't we have to go through our division first? New playoff format?

 

[deadinthewater]

Ugh, that game was so not worth winning. We eek out a 1-0 game...for what??

This is hilarious. If we had lost, you'd be cursing them out. Or perhaps patting yourself on the back..

 

[Canuck Luck]

Last game I watched was the win against Phoenix on jan 26. I go away for 15 days and the Canucks lose all 7 games while I'm gone. I come back and the first game they play was tonight and they win! I'm not saying... I'm just saying

It's all good guys I won't be going away a time soon so the Canucks should win more!

 

[Jimson Hogarth*]

So that was the big, rough, tough, talented cup contending Blues that we've rolled 3 times this year?

This Blues team as is will not contend for a cup. That Center ice depth isn't good enough.

The notion that the Canucks won't be able to contend with "contenders" like the Blues for years should be completely thrown in the garbage.

 

[Zombotron]

Don't we have to go through our division first? New playoff format?

Seeds #7 and #8 take division winners irrespective of division.

 

[Hammer79]

Well if we aren't going to score goals, we have to be stingy in our own end. This is the way we're going to have to play if we want to make the playoffs.

 

[Brock Boeser]

Let's just hope they build off this. All you need in tbis sport is a little bit of confidence.


Go canucks go!

 

[WinterEmpire]

Just need to make playoffs and play St. Louis in the first round.

All according to plan

 

[EpochLink]

That JAM Torts has been preaching all year has finally bear fruit

 

[Pip]

So, is there a chance we play the Blues in the first round?
