Assume he goes .900sv%, we need 30-40 shots. It's gonna be a tough game, we need to step it up.

No, in the final 20 minutes.
Edmonton got walloped last game, was great to watch.
Game 1. 7 shots in the final 40 minutes
Game 3. 7 high danger chances in the entire game
Edmonton has no answer for Vancouver outside of the PP
I totally agree. You always need a prospect at minimum as your 3rd guy. The backup can always be a journeyman while the prospect develops, but it's key to always have one on the go. With Demko's injury history, Silovs has a shot at being the backup next season for the Canucks and continue to develop.
Ya but usually they are accountants, Zamboni drivers, or University students. No pressure.
I am toxic
. . . even in small doses
If the 'nucks knock out the oil, I suggest they don't vacation on a yacht in the Med

He isnt wrong, but Oiler fans still want to dismiss it as a "cOnSPiRaCY thEoRY", its just business.
"HF is for hockey fans to talk about hockey"
Haaaa. Half your ridiculous posters are here to antagonize and stir up shit.

Being a troll is different than being stupid, the average HF poster stupid ratio is way better than Twitter stupid poster ratio
Non-hockey fans who happen to be from Vancouver or Edmonton don't find themselves here
Fans of every team have dudes blaming the refs, that's just the reality of sports.
As for players and coaches using it that's bull - shit.
Tochett only ever called out the fact embellishment needs to get called he's right and that's a league wide issue.
The reffing has been an issue with both sides having a legit beef.
That call on Cole is a perfect example, he cross- checked an oilers and was called despite the fact the refs had rightfully let the less egregious ones go all night.
That scrum at the end tho is truly baffling when taking the whole of it into account.
Two cross checks to the face, one accidental and one not yet only one got a suspension and it was the accidental one, both should have gotten the same treatment at worst.
Zadorov gets a fine for a hit that was clearly not as viscous as the #97 infraction.
How is it possible that both nucks get punished yet neither oiler gets anything?
What possible rational is there for that?
How is a spearing to the groin not even a fine?
How do four officials all watching Quinn get high sticked right in front of them with clear evidence not huddle and get the right call made when that was clearly a pivotal moment?
Again the oilers have gripes as well but the incedents I pointed out go up and above the numerous missed calls on both sides.

You guys follow the could-have-been goals even more diligently than the real ones.
2 games for a cross-check to the lower back? That equals 8 regular season games lol
edit: quoted the wrong post but question still stands
What a shocker, the Nucks playing the league hates us victim card.....
Zadorov seems to be a bit too emotional, especially during the games. Does anyone else gets vibes that he may do something stupid if the score gets out of hands?
Nnnyyyyaaaa ok maybe 1
Anyway anyone wants to look at altercation it comes down to this -
Soucy & McD engage
Z comes in as third entity. Period.
Hit from behind
Intent to injure
Etc etc etc.
You mean the puck went in the net but no way to prove it? Consider the Nucks lucky in game 3.
4 posts and Oilers were dominating. If Skinner didn't suck, the outcome would be completely different.

Comes off more as indifference and just acknowledging that star players (across the league) are protected.
We were warned about that with him from Flames fans, but he's been remarkably steady and consistent. I feel like this is grasping at straws here.
I don't think he intended to injure him, those cross-checks happen all the time in the playoffs. (I am biased tho)
“If Edmonton scored more the outcome would be different” lots of things could happen in any hockey game and the outcome would be different.

"If things weren't the same, they'd be different."
No kidding. And if the Oilers didn't game the draft lottery for multiple years causing the NHL to change how it works, they'd be in Houston.
The dude is a number 5/6 goon defenseman - of course he will do something stupid.

It's okay, I'm sure Dunny is equally appalled at all the elbows Messier threw over the course of his career.
Intent to injure, etc, etc.
No? Chippy play? Playoff hockey? QUELLE SURPRISE.
