Post-Game Talk: On the back of a Chris Tanev OT goal, Vancouver defeats Minnesota in the play-in

[MikeK]

I know but I keep downplaying guys in my head then it's calder every year lol

Whatever you're doing keep it up. We are on a roll with rooks.

Let's f'in go.

When COVID is over and any of you are in NYC, drinks on me

I just want to go to a bodega at 4am and by a Louis vatron bag for the misses.

 

[iFan]

Horvat is underrated with Nucks fans! Big game from him tonight. We are so lucky to have Hughes!

 

[PuckFather]

Fun fact, we are 3-0 with Loui Eriksson in the line up

 

[canucks20]

Canucks play winner of Stars/Blues game on Sunday

Good win, Hughes was awesome

They actually play the loser. Canucks are the 5th seed

 

[Josepho]

i still f***ing hate our management and i know we're not going to amount to shit these playoffs but as the first successful season i've been on hf for this season has been really fun and i hope i can watch more meaningful games with you guys in future

love y'all

 

[Pennask]

Wow! Did they ever come together to cover for Marky. He'll be back in form. Hughes was huge tonight. Horvat was even huger!

Canucks in 4. That was my prediction like many Canucks fans predicted. Underdogs my ass....

 

[SixtyFour]

I've screamed so loud, 11 seconds....again...
And yes, was it normal handshakes after game, not fist bumps?
Suddenly all my hate to Wild disappear

 

[maroon 6]

Marky hammered already? Jamie benn or is it me that heard that

 

[Svencouver]

I seriously can't believe they won it. I can't. I feel like I'm dreaming, like this couldn't have possibly happened. This DOESNT happen. This team has been so Jekyll and Hyde all year and I really thought that after Winnipeg and Game 1 we were getting the ugly Canucks who couldn't put it together and couldn't execute. But this team showed resilience I have never seen them show. So many times this year we've lost leads, we've crumpled, we've come out flat in the 3rd, we've given up. Not today. Every single f***ing player down to Eriksson, Beagle, Motte, Sutter, everyone who's been a pariah came out and shifted into a higher gear. They came back from DEFICIT after DEFICIT and found a f***ing way.

This was a monumental win. I feel like we just won the cup. I really think this was bigger than just the series. This is a team that proved to me, and more importantly, proved to themselves that they can be winners. This is the next step between a talented, but raw young group with lots of unproven players with chips on their shoulders and a true playoff contender. It has been nearly a decade since I've been this happy to be a Canucks fan.

 

[NoShowWilly]

go hard tonight, boys! 3 days off with no responsibilities. nowhere they can go, no families.

 

[Flik]

This bottle of whiskey is almost gone. OH NO~~~

 

[member 328930]

Fun fact, we are 3-0 with Loui Eriksson in the line up

I watch him play and I just can’t comprehend how he ever had any offensive ability ever.

 

[HockeyWooot]

This win is huge for this young team. Can't underestimate just how important this experience is for the long term success. What a gutsy win.

Couldn’t say this better myself. Gutsy character effort. They returned the favour for Marky who has carried this team for the last few years.

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

The Canucks were fighting through deficits the entire game...Coming back from a 3-1 lead was massive..Marky wasn't his best, but i had a good feeling about their chances in OT.

 

[Diamonddog01]

Wow...Hughes with 27 minutes tonight. Juolevi with 6 - welcome to the NHL kid.

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

Jesus Hughes played 27:31 in this game lol...

 

[Ozone]

Let’s f***ing go baby, virtually sending drinks to all the brothers tonight

@Peen @Josepho @MS @M2B @Hoghandler all the ducking lads let’s goooooo

Thanks for the Double Martini!

This is beautiful

 

[BB06]

Haven't been this happy with sports since Raptors won the title last year.

 

[Frank Garrett]

No, you heard it right. He said Jamie.

I feel you dude. I've been following the Canucks for a little more than 10 years now, and was young enough at the time of our old greatness to not really appreciate what we had. We're both 2015 joiners, which means we really have followed and seen every single bit of grime and pain these guys have gone through, down to the individual players, to get to this one fleeting moment of happiness. If we lose next round whatever, this is a step forward that I didn't think I'd see happen today.

 

[Ozone]

Shout out to Miller

Great non-assist screen on Tanner's OT winner

Woot!

 

[sting101]

Nice work fellas...bring on the 7 game series. I love this group

So happy for Tanev. Just an absolute warrior.

So great to see Horvat get a big goal and our top line was deadly and is figuring things out as we go. Hughes is an absolute treat to watch 27minutes and skated miles.

Have to get this off my chest. Tanner Pearson Brandon Sutter Jay Beagle Tyler Motte have been absolute money and deserve huge kudos after all the trash so many on this forum have spewed towards them. Even Myers after a couple rough starts to game 2 and tonight has been really good and elevated his game when needed.

side notes

Liked the look of Olli Juolevi and Zack MacEwen tonight. Have to like the possibilities they add going forward

 

[Chairman Maouth]

 

[JanBulisPiggyBack]

Man I like how we stack up against all the teams too
Calgary, Arizona, Dallas, Chicago I like us
Colorado and St. Louis I think we can beat
Vegas I worry about

I also think the Canucks played the only real playin series, we are ready to go baby

Dallas/St Louis just has a tame round robin

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Wow...Hughes with 27 minutes tonight. Juolevi with 6 - welcome to the NHL kid.

QH43 reminds me of SN27
