GDT: WCQF GM06 | Vancouver Canucks @ Nashville Predators | Fri. May 3rd | 4pm PST | SNP/CBC | On the Road Again

[Three On Zero]

I'm not blaming the loss on him at all, I thought he was excellent in both Games 4 and 5. I just suspect we will go to DeSmith.

With the injury history this post season, I would ride Silovs until he shows signs of breaking. Nashville with the lower level of offence is a good confidence booster for when the teams might be up against Edmonton

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

We both know more than 50% of fans are bandwagoners anyways. We could win the cup and we'd still have pissed off fans lmao

"They didn't win the cup in a four game sweep. What a bunch of bums. We gotta trade Pettersson for Jiricek"

 

[Donuts]

Win

I didn't want a series with Nashville just because of the travel. If you can win it in 4-5 games, okay, but that was a hope and a dream.

The Preds should have been devastated by what happened in game 4, but they regrouped. This is going to be tough.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Sounds like it's working its way through both our rosters. Last one standing wins?

Didn't realize that the puckdrop was 4PM tomorrow. Eff. I'll be in transit from Kitimat to Smithers for part of it.

Given the way they drag out the American anthem, puckdrop will be closer to 4:30.

No doubt about it, the Preds have to feel confident taking this to Game 7 heading into their barn after the way they've played the last two games, and the Canucks notable inconsistency and inability to score consistently over the series. Preds can easily say to themselves they should be up 3-2 in the series on the verge of moving onto the second round after the last two games.

It would be nice to actually see a vintage good game from this team like we've seen in the past, but I've seen no indication over the past 40-ish games we're going to get one.

The Preds game plan looks like it's working a heck of a lot better than the Canucks game plan.

They did what now?

 

[vadim sharifijanov]

i’m imagining schenn regrets taking his old buddy myers up on his suspicious invitation for a homecooked meal?

 

[TruGr1t]

Maybe that was worded in a confusing way, the Preds have to feel confident they'll get a Game 7. In fact, the market feels the same way, the Preds are favoured on the money line heading into Game 6.

 

[LemonSauceD]

Schenn had dinner with Myers and Hughes before Game 5 lol. Considering Myers was sick, I’m 100% certain Myers gave Schenn whatever he had.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Brunette is coaching circles around Tocchet.

The game plan from the start has always been a defence-first approach and taking advantage on the counterattack.

Above all else, if you take out Quinn Hughes, the rest of the team does not perform at the same level. There's a reason two guys have been sandwiching him into the glass on every forecheck.

Nevermind the goaltending situation. But it took 5 games for Tocchet to figure out that Hughes needs Zadorov/Myers on his line to stop the bullshit.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

This flu has special powers. This team won with the flu. Now Nashville is winning with the flu.

 

[Nucker101]

Preds are battling the flu? Sounds like a great opportunity to take advantage tomorrow.

[aregora]

Preds get the flu.
They get some Gravol.
Why didn't Allvin think of that?!?

 

[Hansen]

Miller has been showing leadership that has been desperately needed lately. Being accountable, doing things to keep it light, and laying it all out on the ice.

Makes you wonder what things would be like if we went with Bo instead

[Baby Pettersson]

Great way for Miller to put some light into the room and joke around! Pure leader!

Canucks: good at taking advantage of their opportunities.
