GDT: WCSF GM 4 | Vancouver Canucks @ Edmonton Oilers | Tue, May 14 | 6:30PM PST | SPAC | Thunderdome!

[SillyRabbit]

At this point I'd be benching Pettersson and Cole.

PP1 is now:

Garland-Lindholm-Joshua
Hronek-Zadorov

Tocchet needs to send a message.

 

[calnuck]

This team usually bounces back after bad periods so being down only 1, I’m optimistic for the 2nd even if that whole first was ugly

 

[IslandBeast]

Lotto line

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

The Predators winning Game 5 was so detrimental to this team's chances of going on a run. They were already banged up and the Oilers were resting.

 

[Brookbank]

This period is all on Tocchet

Mikheyev-Pettersson-Lafferty
Suter-Miller-Boeser
Joshua-Lindholm-Garland
Karlsson-Blueger-Åman

 

[Iron Mike Sharpe]

Hughes absolutely sucked ass on the power plays.

 

[Jyrki]

Could've been down worse. This PP is just not acceptable

 

[SopelFanThe3rd]

There was zero reason to scratch a 24 goal scorer another game. There's very little offense in this line up

 

[mdobbs]

Not a good period, 4 min pp masked how bad it was

Need to regroup and come out hard, only 1-0

 

[timw33]

Garland onto PP1 for sure.

Oilers PK is insanely aggressive they need to find a way to exploit it.

 

[CanucksSayEh]

This team has some of the worst special teams coaching in the league.

Absolutely stacked PP unit that can't gain the zone.

Some idiots idea to leave Drai wide open for 1 timers when the entire arena knows that pass is only going to 1 person.

Cole is awful, that penalty comes because he failed twice to make a simple clear and gave the puck right to an Oiler.

 

[PavelBure10]

Absolute dogshit outing by the Canucks in the first. 3 powerplays and the Canucks looked out matched shorthanded. Pettersson is really starting to piss me off. You talk the talk, now walk the walk. Linus Karlsson is more noticeable than this guy. I blame the powerplay goal on Cole for not clearing the puck out twice when he could've. Brutal outing thus far and I really hope Tochett is giving it to them. Unacceptable.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

One shot on a four minute PP, and you know there's some 'even up' calls coming for the Oilers. Unless they forth more effort than this, they may as well climb on a plane back to Vancouver.

I thought the third period of game #3 was their worst of the playoffs--but this period easily surpasses it.

And gave up a shorthanded breakaway to boot.

 

[Nomobo]

Pp was small and useless.

Petterson killed a couple of sequences.

 

[ForecheckBackcheck]

If there was a way to trade players in the post-season, and Hurricanes were still open to it, I would maybe straight up trade Petey for Necas one-for-one at this point.

 

[potatowejj]

Man I am tired of Petey being a ghost.

 

[Nopefully]

We looked tentative out there. Not good enough

 

[Tact]

Well that was a terrible effort.

Seems like nobody is trying except for Garland

 

[PG Canuck]

There wasn’t a single player that looked good during that PP. Hughes is playing soft. Need better from him too.

 

[Petey O]

When are we going to remove the kids gloves with ep40?

Because this is f***ing unacceptable

It’s completely fine because he isn’t on his new contract yet. He doesn’t have to be an 11.6 million dollar player yet.

 

[AwesomeInTheory]

I thought they did a good job of weathering the storm, tbh, although yeah, they are wavering a bit.

Not the disaster people are making it out to be.

 

[beckstreaker07]

The Predators winning Game 5 was so detrimental to this team's chances of going on a run. They were already banged up and the Oilers were resting.

Oilers play one line half the game; I'd bet McDavid and Leon have more minutes played this playoffs than anyone on the Nucks

 

[DFAC]

Garbage. Absolutely terrible period.

 

[Ozone]

That 4 min PP:

Bingo. They are definitely spent.
