is it weird i didn't think the canucks were losing this? sometime in the last 10 minutes i realized the Bruins were toothless and the Canucks were working too hard for them defensively.

I had the same feeling, mainly based on the goalie. When a goalie is dialled in like that they're obviously hard to beat but it compounds because the opposition knows it'll be near impossible to get one by.

Sometimes you just thank the Hockey Gods and your goaltender--not necessarily in that order--and move on.

One of the first game this year where I thought the Canucks struggled with the Bruins size and strength. It's something Allvin will have to think about addressing at the TDL.

So it's on to Pittsburgh and Sid tomorrow night. Hopefully Silovs can follow Lankinen's lead.

Well...

DeBrusk and Sherwood should be EPs wingers permanently. They are all elevated together and it seems EP is having fun with those 2.
True. Still have issues with the 1a line though, even when Miller is back. I guess Suter continues to ride shotgun there, leaving Joshua, Blueger and Garland for a great third line, and some combo of Raty, Heinen, Hoglander (while still here), Aman etc... for the 4th.
