GDT: GM32 Vancouver Canucks @ Vegas Golden Knights | Thur. Dec 19th | 7:00pm PST | SNP | Chivalry is Dead

[Bobby9]

As soon as Vegas turned up the physical play the Canucks started looking bad.

 

[ManVanFan]

Last Canucks shots

7:14 left in the 1st.

9:46 left in the 2nd
3:53 left in the 2nd

No shots recorded 5 minutes into the 3rd.

3 shots in 32 minutes.... and counting.

Miller needs to play a lot better. He's been far worse than Pettersson

 

[PavelBure10]

Pettersson onetimer which is rare.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Pettersson's one timer wouldn't have even hit a soccer sized net.

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

Pettersson fired 10 feet wife

 

[bandwagonesque]

For the love of God, load up the power-play, Petey will be fine

"Quinn, can you tell Elias to keep his head up for the pass?"

"Elias, JT wants me to tell you to keep your head up for the pass."

 

[Slapshot_11]

This team is in big trouble

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Honestly blow it up. Teams a joke.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Here come the odd man rushes.

 

[afrocentric]

I wish this team would just hit the net.

 

[VanJack]

Vegas just grinds you down and then wait for the third period, particularly with a team like the Canucks playing their third in four nights.

I'd be surprised if the Canucks can get anything out of this game. L.A. and Edmonton won again tonight, and if Vegas holds on, the top of the division is further out of reach.

Blunt fact....this team is good enough to hang around in the playoff race but not to do much else. Blowing up their prospect pool and draft picks to add to this group would be a big mistake.

 

[calnuck]

For the love of God, load up the power-play, Petey will be fine

But will Miller?

 

[SillyRabbit]

No shots on the PP, no shots in the entire period.

 

[Canucks LB]

This is coaching. Also, you can’t let the players dictate coaching strategies.

It makes 0% chance not putting JT with petey on the power-play, absolutely zero

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

3 shots in almost 30 minutes. I just... can't even

 

[quat]

lol that's like the third time I've seen the bumper in the slot try a weak backhand.

Yeah, no excuse for the PP. That's on the coaching and players equally.

 

[wonton15]

The team is missing the playoffs with Miller/Pettersson playing like Vitaly Kravtsov and Jimmy Vesey. Don’t trade the 1st.

 

[Canucks LB]

Miller needs to play a lot better. He's been far worse than Pettersson

They both have been terrible, I honestly think pettersson has been worse

 

[SillyRabbit]

lol that's like the third time I've seen the bumper in the slot try a weak backhand.

Yeah, no excuse for the PP. That's on the coaching and players equally.

Yeah who decided that of all the shots you could take on the PP, a weak backhander by a guy in traffic not even facing towards the net was the shot to take?

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Blunt fact....this team is good enough to hang around in the playoff race but not to do much else. Blowing up their prospect pool and draft picks to add to this group would be a big mistake.

I was all-in last year when the team bought in and had an electric start.

This year? Our window has solidly slammed shut with this whole Pettersson/Miller bullshit.

I am all-in for a retool.

 

[Canucks LB]

This is coaching. Also, you can’t let the players dictate coaching strategies.

It makes 0% chance not putting JT with petey on the power-play, absolutely zero

I’m gonna double down, we’re down one goal against Vegas, not loading up that power play at such a important moment, is insane

 

[calnuck]

They both have been terrible, I honestly think pettersson has been worse

Can’t say I agree

 

[Zanon]

3 shots in almost 30 minutes. I just... can't even

Yeah it’s wild

 

[VanillaCoke]

I wish this team would just hit the net.

IF they shoot in prime opportunities it's either:

A) way wide
B) waited to long -> blocked
C) hits their own teammate
D) crest
