Let’s go baby. The boys had the jitters out of the gate on Sunday but I expect them to come out flying to start tonight. Tocchet’s done a great job this season of having them ready to go from puck drop.

I predict we score our first goal in the first five minutes and then settle in to a puck possession game.

Score: 3-1 good guys.

 

[BonMorrison]

5 - 1 Canucks if Brunette makes no strategic adjustments (likely).

 

[Three On Zero]

4-3 Nashville

 

[Breakers]

Pettersson better wake the hell up

Hughes was spectacular and showed why he is gonna win the norris. Had Nashville players slamming their sticks against the boards in frustration trying to keep up with his edge work and skating.

But Pettersson Getting out played against that Nashville line
Come on dude

I mean they didn't even practice yesterday

Can't wait for more failed stretch passes into the neutral zone.

Come on dude

I want to see Pettersson playing with different wingers.

Neither Hoglander nor Lafferty looked ready for the moment.

Garland was great

but they aint splitting that line up, not a snowballs chance in hell with the results they had
I'd keep Hoglander and find somebody else to replace lafferty

 

[Rowlet]

The Canucks third line badly outmatched the Preds first line. They scored 3 goals against the ROR/Forsberg line while blanking them on the score sheet at ES.

If they can keep that up the Canucks win tonight, hopefully Pettersson gets going.

 

[BonMorrison]

Apparently Ryan Kesler is in the building, Preds are absolutely cooked just by his presence.

[DFAC]

Just crazy how dominant these 2 have been this year

[SeanMoneyHands]

If Demko is out for the series, huge loss. But DeSmith has been playing well.

 

[BonMorrison]

If Canucks play D like they did in Game 1, they will be perfectly fine.

 

[EpochLink]

If DeSmith starts to reek of ass, Silvos takes over

Literally everyone on that line had a point in game 1 tho

 

[notsocommonsense]

How very Vancouver Canucks

 

[Donuts]

No demko?!

Come on, man!

 

[notsocommonsense]

No demko?!

Come on, man!

We can win this series w Desmith but no way we get past edm without Demko

 

[Rowlet]

Literally everyone on that line had a point in game 1 tho

powerplay point where they couldn't be matched up, they kept them off at ES and the entire line was -3, but fair, i will edit

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Rough.

Canucks going to have to just play better.

As a pens fan DeSmith can steal some games but long term is not someone you want playing every game

Quinn Hughes just has to play like game 1
