Post-Game Talk: GM 69 | Canucks def. Jets | 6-2 (Boeser x2, Suter x2, Hoglander, O’Connor) | Just as we all predicted!

Pretty damn good game top to bottom. We had lots of other quality looks that Hellebuyck denied, too.

Critical thing here is going to be maintaining this kind of effort. Thursday’s game against St. Louis is massive - and other than Utah losing, we didn’t get much help on the out of town scoreboard tonight.

Great to see Brock scoring and smiling - hopefully the dam has broken there. Suddenly we have three 20-goal guys on the team. Suter continues adding to his career high in goals, Sherwood hits a career high in points. Lekkerimaki looked solid, Karlsson was productive, Lankinen made big saves, the PK was huge…

Just carry this over into the next game. Please, boys!
 
Massive win. Basically cancels out the no show on Sunday against UTA for purposes of the standings.

Have to hope that the team's takeaway from this game is that they can beat anyone in this league with a solid effort. If they do, that should be a huge boost for the hard matchups they have down the stretch.
Bring that effort every day and make a run

Linus Karlsson looks like he should be an everyday player for us
That would be a big win. We really need guys like Karlsson, Lekk, EP2, Willander, Mancini and even Raty to hit. I know it’s too much to expect them all to be regulars, but they have all shown promise.
If Lekk can be a top 6 winger, LK a third line winger, Raty even a good 4C, that would be massive.
And I know it is beyond unlikely that we will start three rookies/near-rookies on the blueline next year, but having Mancini, EP2 and Willander coming up the ranks is such an odd feeling for a Canucks fan.
