Canucks with no Miller, no Demko and no Hronek took a fully healthy Wild team to the brink. And likely should have won it. Hard to be mad about this one.

Refs can suck a f***, though. Kaprizov should have been in the box, and instead he scores the winner. Didn't even try to play the puck, just hauled Garland to the ice.

I wonder how much the Canucks practice OT?

Other than Hughes, Miller, Pettersson and Garland, the other players don't seem to know how to utilize the extra space out there effectively.

It's a possession game, but it's also how you recover pucks from shots that miss the net, bounce off the boards, rebounds that are kicked out, etc.

You basically want to optimize for the best possible scoring chance or it's not worth giving up the puck.

Nice effort. Canucks should have tripped the wild player coming back in transition because apparently that was allowed

I didn’t like that OT…

Two missed tripping penalties, and f***, terrible shot by Boeser… I guess he isn’t thinking of the counter, but please shoot it on net where it won’t result in a two on one the other way…
