Post-Game Talk: Game 9: Canucks lose to the Penguins 4-3 in the SO - Blame it on the early start

[Oddrane]

They had a lead in the third and blew it.

They have a negative 5 on 5 goal differential.

How about we reserve ref blaming for when they have the rest of their game in order.

There was more than one intereference call missed in this game.

But yes, the quick 3-3 goal was also pretty bad, and the Canucks just let in way to many easy goals.

Hamhuis seriously needs to step up his game, he have just been awful this season.

Considering how much iron Pittsburgh hit in the first, the flukey goal we got and Luongo stop Sutter on a penalty shot late in the game I take this one point and run with it.

 

[LiquidSnake]

Fun game guys.

Goodluck the rest of the way.

You too.


I didn't even get mad when Sid scored

 

[Johnny Canucker]

We get it, you don't like Luongo.

Like or dislike. 3 GA on 25 shots is brutal. No matter what your name is.

 

[13 others]

And yet only scored 1 goal. OMG THE MISMATCH!!!!!

You're ridiculous. If that lineup faced each other 10 times Pittsburgh would win 9/10.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Shootouts always benefit teams with individual skill like Pittsburgh - we score by committee.

 

[Pip]

Would have liked to have seen Kassian be a shooter instead of Edler

 

[Eddy Punch Clock]

They had a lead in the third and blew it.

I was thinking about that... does holding a lead for 22 seconds really count as "blowing a lead"?

 

[shortshorts]

Can't believe I missed the game. Damn work.

Didn't see the game, so not defending anyone, but doesn't it depend a bit on the chances and such too? I mean what if they were 25 breakaways?

 

[ZZZZZZZ]

How the hell does Edler rate the 2nd shot,he hasn't scored in 2 years?

We've got both bloody Sedins sitting on their a$$e$,watching these clowns take the shots...............this is BS.

Crosby and Malkin are always the shooters and both Sedins never take any.............WTF is that?

Dude, just stop.

Your shtick is tired. Like, really tired.

Go enjoy your day people. 5/6 ain't bad.

 

[LiquidSnake]

Why didn't they win 2-0 then if it's such a mismatch? And speaking of ridiculous, anymore hypotheticals you want to add?

Yes. Shift after a goal is important and they failed badly.

 

[Lawzy]

Vancouver vs. Pittsburgh SCF is a dream matchup for me.

It's ok. We'll just lose in regulation or in OT in the playoffs but not certainly in the shootouts!

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Pittsburgh could have had 6 tonight...we were lucky to get a point in that respect. Even though I thought we dictated the play and had more shots, they had far better scoring chances. Crosby is a machine

Profesional Hockey Analyst, Don Taylor, just said Luongo played great.

LOL wat!?

 

[Lomez]

It's great to see western teams (instead of the usual east coast schmucks we see), that was a really enjoyable game, could've gone either way. Good luck the rest of the way guys.

 

[shortshorts]

Waiting for MS' game comments

Looked like a ****** game to miss.

 

[Addison Rae]

Pens have a really classy fan base.

 

[serge2k]

No.

Maybe if Fleury, Crosby, and Malkin are injured.

My dream matchup is the Canucks vs a flu ravage, injury ravage, suspension ravaged team where the coach just got caught sleeping with the wives of both goalies.

In other words, a matchup they can actually win.
