Post-Game Talk: GM 72 | Canucks def. Devils in SO | 4-3 (Suter, Lekkerimaki, & Garland) (SO: DeBrusk & Lekkerimaki) | LEKKERIMAK-YEEEEAAA!

[Canucks LB]

I honestly can’t get over how amazing Amazon Prime Hockey is.

 

[Jyrki21]

Classic reaction from Markström.

Nice to see Lekkerimäki be a difference-maker, much as I think it's too little too late.

 

[Canucks LB]

Quinn Hughes, especially these last 2 games, is looking a lot like peak Erik Karlsson - every time the puck is on his stick in the offensive zone we get an A/A+ grade scoring chance it feels like.

Absolutely an utterly special, and he’s doing this while hurt

 

[andora]

I felt happy dirty things watching that shot

He's got a shot like that plus he thinks the game so well you can see it already me likey

 

[calnuck]

What’s Markstrom’s problem? Great shot!

He got absolutely undressed that’s why lol

Difference is Hughes actually goes into the defensive zone every once in awhile.

 

[VanJack]

You have to tip your hat to this gutsy team. They're minus so many guys, but you know they'll battle right to the end.

So many positives in this game--but led by Lekkerimaki and Demko. I think it might be OK to get excited about Lekkerimaki. He's a goal-scorer, pure and simple. And these last 10 games are going to be so important for his development.

Even though they're still likely to fall short.....these last 10 games will be so important to the development of their younger players.

My only complaint is Forbort instead of EP25. Unless he's hurt, sick or something, he needs to play.

 

[bbud]

Really looking forward to seeing Lekk pop off once he’s on the team full time. Which should be next year

Even more looking forward to him on pp 1 taking feeds from Hughes with that shot )

 

[Jyrki21]

Is Quinn Hughes hitting yet another level as the year goes on?
He's never looked this insane offensively. He's literally Bobby Orr right now

That dash up the middle in OT was Bure-like.

 

[Vector]

Probably the only NHL game where Lekkerimaki looked impactful and also made a difference.

Demko looked sharp as hell. Massive difference maker and you can see how confident the team is with him in net.

Pius Suter #1 Centre

 

[Knight53]

Lekkerimaki is a star in the making. What a shot. Still can’t believe we got him at 15th overall.

 

[Vector]

That dash up the middle in OT was Bure-like.

I’m so used to seeing Hughes skate circles around everyone that I forget he’s also the fastest straight line skater.

 

[ProviesGhost]

Lekk made him look bad.

He bit on that fade to the glove with the stick blade, hard, totally lost the net after that LMAO.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Who needs a 2C when Pius is playing like a 1C.

 

[Slapshot_11]

Bit lucky but nice win

 

[pitseleh]

That dash up the middle in OT was Bure-like.

Had the exact same reaction.

 

[Canucks LB]

Lekkerimaki is a star in the making. What a shot. Still can’t believe we got him at 15th overall.

It’s crazy how young he is also, every season he’s gonna just get better and better, I can’t wait.

 

[Baby Pettersson]

Can we normalize post game shows?

 

[Coffee]

That release was so filthy I had to switch to porn when my wife walked in.

Lol LordBacon you're a savage, man!

 

[logan5]

I was sure Lekk was going to score on that OT chance. I'm maybe too excited about him, but it seems like he is the best on the team at getting into a scoring position. Combine that with his elite shot, means his floor is pretty high imo.

 

[Flik]

Hughes basically playing Samwise to this team's Frodo.

Carrying us on his back all elite and what not.

 

[Nona Di Giuseppe]

amazon announcers >>>> ESPN

 

[Bleach Clean]

Lekkerimaki was going last game. He has continued that here.

Build. Keep building on this.

Demko rode adrenaline to turn in a high end starter performance. May get one more before he settles. Bodes well thus far.

Hughes... What do you say? Unreal.

 

[DimitriL07]

Lekk has risen

 

[ephmrl]

Classic reaction from Markström.

Nice to see Lekkerimäki be a difference-maker, much as I think it's too little too late.

He's somehow taken his skating to another level all while battling injury. Otherworldly stuff. He had the best agility in the league, and now he might also have the fastest straight line speed with McDavid playing banged up all year.
