So jacked with that effort. Canucks were the better team and deserved the win but damn Nashville was tough to score on. Got to give Tocchet some credit. Pitched defense all year and that was what, in the end, allowed them through. Just have to hope scorers come alive - especially #40.
Good
Silvos - has played better here than in the AHL - go figure. Sometimes I see a little Hasek in him but likely that's wishful thinking. However, on a development path that makes him look NHL bound. Canucks prospect rating should be elevated given how he is playing.
Suter - earning chances and scored a huge goal. There were times when you doubted his signing but he looked dangerous all through this round. Guy really showed up in these playoff games.
Boeser - play on the winner showed the determination he has shown all series. Could make a case that he was the player of the series. Call against him was BS as was the call on Lindholm.
Myers - believe he was far from a 100% healthy but he hung in and was excellent in his end. Gave up his body continually. Showed great heart
Cole - another player very good in his end. Showed his class in this game and you can see how he has contributed to past Stanley Cups. You always want him out late in close games.
Zadorov - if isn't Boeser as the top player in the series, then its Zadorov. Please re-sign him.
Blueger - so good on the PK. Just critical in this game in killing off the 4 minute call. He established the momentum that lead to the kill.
Players you hope pick up their games
Pettersson - obviously
Hoglander - was better in this last game - especially in the first.
Mikheyev - mostly invisible. I think there has always been a concern about this player in pressure situations.
Never wanted to face the Oilers and they are probably the over-whelming favorites. Whatever happens got to be proud of this team and they are in with a chance.
