Stecher would be an idiot to stay. Guy gets 9 minutes by the end of the third? 19 for trainwreck57? Green doesn’t have any faith in Troy...time to move on.

Still feel a bit surreal
Who would had thought we would win it in 4 after the terrible game 1

Sutter looked more like he did two seasons ago in that series, the extended time off likely did him well.

4th best Dman on the Canucks, or for both teams?
Myers was bad in this series. I would question any poster that had him at even average. He was poor on balance, made nearly unusable due to his penalties. Green better be talking to this player.
He looked markedly worse here than he did in the regular season.

lol, fun to talk about stats, but it's completely different teams and coaches for both sides... Different arenas too.

JTM9 trade is complete. Devils will get our first round pick in the draft. I assume we don’t know where we pick until after playoffs? (Not sure if draft rules are different because of Covid )
Nucks matchup well against the Blues - going 2-1 in the season (yes I know it means nothing now, but all we can go off of) and the Stars beat us twice in our matchups.
The Stars have looked very bad, and the Blues have looked okay so far. Binnington has been off, Allen is starting in net - so if you're asking me the Blues don't want to play us.

Yep.
Honestly, the way the end of this season played out with COVID-19 was the best thing that could have ever happened for the Canucks. They could have finished outside the playoffs and given up a decent pick. In this scenario, they're now in the playoffs and the pick will be who knows how low. Even if they lose in the opening round, the experience has been huge and worth getting Miller.
On the Canucks.
As I said, his lack of discipline was horrendous. In terms of game-play, he was not poor. Don’t think his play was worse than during the season, other than the obvious penalty trouble.
Guy needs to settle down. Tried way too hard to punish the opposition.

This is water
The feeling of witnessing that goal and winning that game after 8 years of pain > the 17th overall pick.
I'm hoping for the Blues. I think that we match up well against them, and that it'd be a motivating and catalytic test for the kids to take on the title holders.

Was at the draft and was pissed when it was announced. Overjoyed now. I hate giving up first round picks however.

He was poor on game play. I don't think you could reasonably argue that he was at the level he was during the regular season. Myers was more often a liability on the defensive side of the puck than I care to remember. The Virtanen cover was just the highlight. Mistake after mistake.
He was foolish in the neutral and defensive zones.
Who was behind him? Juolevi, Fantenberg and Stecher? Stecher was better on balance. Hughes, Edler and Tanev were better.

Happiest I’ve been as a Canuck fan in a decade.
even if we go no further , was cool to see the boys all fired up.

Whoever we face will be a tough challenge and a great test for the young guns.
Either way, experience experience experience.

I too felt that Stecher didn't deserve this treatment. Stecher was better than Myers, but 6'8" giraffe and blah blah blah.
Myers was a gong show.

I don't think anyones mentioned Hughes' ice time but he played almost half the game.
His 27:31 on ice was more than anyone else on the Canucks and only slightly behind Brodin and Dumba (29:01 and 27:47).
Pretty clear who our number 1 dman is, and he's a rookie.
