Post-Game Talk: Oilers def. Canucks in season opener, 5-3 (Pettersson, Miller, Kuzmenko)

[CherryToke]

Fckn bum misses the net by a mile

 

[Hansen]

Podz breakout as powerplaymaker tour

 

[quat]

Harvat misses AGAIN

 

[Orca Smash]

How do you miss that bo

Kind of sums up the game, thought we have worked harder then the oilers but some sloppy misses, nurse has scored that goal, horvat and miller have missed.

 

[Vancouver_2010]

Why do i get a feeling this team just couldn't score for the rest of the game, glad to be wrong though.

 

[Scorvat]

is this like the 20th missed one timer?

 

[canuckking1]

we have no D that has any offensive abilities outside of Hughes. What a garbage shot off space and time.

 

[Canucks LB]

I don’t understand how bo Horvat can be so damn good in the playoffs, yet look so pedestrian in the regular season most of the time

 

[JumpierPegasus]

Podkolzin has set up like 3 grade A passes mostly to Horvat

We should be winning this

Between Pod to Horvat and that Kuz to Miller chance that was on a wide open net, this shouldn't be tied

Those guys are the ones who bury it too, disappointing their just not all there today

 

[vadim sharifijanov]

tanner pearson needs to switch lines with podkolzin like now

 

[MS]

I don’t understand how bo Horvat can be so damn good in the playoffs, yet look so pedestrian in the regular season most of the time

I mean, he did score at a 50-goal pace for the final 1/3 of the last regular season.

Brutal effort tonight, though.

This is what Bo is, a big body C that will at times look like he has a slower first step, and he's never been a good puck distributor.

He will score clutch goals here and there, and win his fair share of board battles. Good bumper guy on the pp.

7 million I won't pay him that for sure.

Still the same thing we see from Boeser, even though he's moving his feet more this game, not big enough to really do anything near the net, and not skilled enough to generate much offense.

I hear you, but Boeser has been heads and shoulders above Bo in this one. Horvat looks like he's weeks away from being in "game shape". A terrible look for your captain.

 

[canuckking1]

I’d throw Pod onto the Petey line

 

[Cupless44]

I don’t understand how bo Horvat can be so damn good in the playoffs, yet look so pedestrian in the regular season most of the time

Maybe because he has barely played in the playoffs in his career?

 

[CherryToke]

Pod is totally being wasted playing with Bo

 

[Coffee]

I’m going with the losers mentality!, give me a point at least lmao

Come on, LB. if you don’t have hope, it’s hard for me to cheer as well.

It’s tied and we have #40, #96, and #9 on our offence.

WE WILL WIN, YOU KNOW WE WILL

 

[Vector]

I don’t understand how bo Horvat can be so damn good in the playoffs, yet look so pedestrian in the regular season most of the time

He’s reached the playoffs twice and was impressive as a rookie. It’s not like there’s some Linden track record here.

 

[kanucks25]

Need to see Pod with Petey and Kuzmenko now...

 

[Josepho]

i'm really not sure about this pearson-miller-boeser line.

 

[Canucks LB]

I mean, he did score at a 50-goal pace for the final 1/3 of the last regular season.

Brutal effort tonight, though.

It’s just the power play, I want to see something 5 on 5

 

[canuckking1]

I mean, he did score at a 50-goal pace for the final 1/3 of the last regular season.

Brutal effort tonight, though.

People just need to accept he’s hot and cold. If he was consistent he’d be a 40-40 guy.

 

[logan5]

Oilers persecution complex is something else man

It is absolutely unreal. I've never seen a fan base blame everything on the refs. Every penalty is a dive. Hughes writhing on the ice etc.

 

[CherryToke]

Strip the f***ing C

 

[CalderSchmalder]

oh no

 

[Canucks LB]

f*** off
