Post-Game Talk: Pettersson def. Kraken - 6-5 (SO) (Pettersson x2, Pederson, Boeser, Kuzmenko) (Petey SO Winner)

[arttk]

If Jack Campbell is in, it’s possible.

Against Stuart Skinner…still possible, I guess.

But McDavid is going to make absolute hay tomorrow, no matter how many we score.

10+ goals game tomorrow

I just want 1 NHL team to be our bitch the way we have been for everyone else so long. Closest thing we have is the Blues, as we're 4-0 in playoff series against them.

The Canucks have, historically, destroyed the Blue Jackets but I don't think there's many teams with losing records against the Blue Jackets.

I do find it amusing that the Canucks have more wins against the Kings than any other team. 117 wins, 101 losses, 32 ties, and 11 OT losses.

4th career 5 point game for Elias Pettersson in his young career. Pretty impressive.

 

[wonton15]

The fact that Bruce has kept breaking up Kuzmenko and Petey over the season is hilarious. He just loves screwing with lines.

Kuzmenko now has more points than JT Miller.

Aquaman should call up Pete, bring him to Gotham Steakhouse and let him order whatever the f*** he wants.

Aqua owns Elisa, it has better steaks, and Petey does eat there.

Someone needs to photoshop that 2007 Luongo team picture and put Pettersson where Luongo was

Someone photoshop a 2022-2023 Canucks team photo but it’s just Petey

Something like that.

Low budget MS paint version

 

[604]

And Petey scores 5 more points

I took Oilers + over...good with that.

At this point I’m whatever in Bruce Boudreau, guys here collecting another paycheck and the ‘talent’ on this team is bailing him out.

That works too.

Pyro Pete can order the Ron Swanson special: Turf and turf, 16 oz T-bone and a 24 oz Porterhouse, plus whiskey and a cigar.

Pettersson scoring in OT and getting his 6th point and Hat trick goal on that rush would have had the city buzzing for weeks still will probably.

Said this before, going from Henrik Sedin to Elias Pettersson immediately is insane. Franchise’s take decades to get a center man of this calibre

 

[VanJack]

There's a version of the Canucks 'with' and 'without' Elias Pettersson. Without Petey they're legitimately in the Bedard sweepstakes. With him they're probably an 80-90 point team. Not good enough for the playoffs, but not bad enough to bottom out.

On the negative side of ledger, another nightmarish night by the Canucks blueline. One of the most laughably bad efforts I've ever seen from Myers. Tell me again why they scratched Ethan Bear? And Schenn might have been just as bad.

And a defensive tandem of Stillman and Burroughs. Seriously? They'd struggle with the Abbotsford Canucks. In the first five minutes of the first period I counted five outright giveaways in their own zone, and three eye-ball to eyeball chances against Martin.

And speaking of Martin, he was a nice story for awhile. But being forced to play every night, the warts are starting to show. He just looks small in the net and his rebound control isn't remotely good enough.

I'd like to see them give Silovs a look.....a bigger goaltender who's' far better at handling the puck and seems to track pucks better.

why so many people on Hfboards think Hischier is better than Pettersson is beyond me

I like Nico, but this can't really be a discussion

 

[Hoglander]

Great game from EP.

Horvat was a ghost tonight, brutal effort from the captain.

Myers is just hockey-dumb, extra low IQ on display.

Get Low, Aquilini

Skinner has been one of the biggest surprises, at least for me, this year.
Sure, I can see 3 goals against him, but this feels like a 4-3 or 5-3 Oilers win.

Unless, Super-Christmas-Petey shows up again....

What does get low mean when you say it?

 

[wonton15]

Media guys ask about Bear scratching, Bruce talks about accountability, and there was a PRIME opportunity to ask about OEL/Myers but no one does it

I hate these gutless reporters

SERIOUSLY WTF... myers does not belong in the NHL. Just a free pass.

Get low get low get low.

To the windows, to the walls.

The NHL passed Myers by the moment he signed as a Canuck. Thanks Jimbo.
