It’s been alternating wins. Need to break the pattern tonight and come out with a strong start. No more having to come from behind. Let’s get the lead and keep it!

Henrique for Perry is an upgrade - have to view Skinner starting as an opportunity. Get in his head early, boys.
At this point it doesn’t matter who’s wearing the stripes, their mandate seems pretty clear - get McDavid and Draisaitl to the next round. Going to have to get through both the Oilers and the crap officiating to get it done. Hope the PK is ready to ride again.
I suspect after the last game the officiating will be under a microscope tonight. I would be surprised if we get a repeat of what we saw the other night despite it being the NHL
Slept terribly, super excited for the game, cant believe its so early tho!
Team has to hit hard on Draisatl Mcdavid Henrique and Ekholm. Altho sounds like Henrique is pretty banged up anyways, we will see. Miller madness from the end of last game will drive the Canucks tonight
GO CANUCKS GO
Man I love this team
Channeling Ted Lasso are we?Has anyone had anyone tell them "its just a game"
in the last 3 weeks?
Its not just a game. Its life.
I said it last time, but the most aggravating thing about the McDavid diving isn’t that he draws the penalty most times, it’s that the broadcast crew isn’t even willing to suggest that he might have dived.

Agreed - Perry had that dangerous wraparound chance in the third. He is slow though, probably want more speed on their forecheck.I actually thought Perry was decent in Game 5, especially when he used his strength to control the behind the net. His lack of footspeed made him rather useless off the rush though.
Henrique is a big upgrade in their top 9 though.

Can't wait to see what @EpochLink 's Metallica song of the day for Game 6 ends up being. A few possibilities - Carpe Diem, Baby? All Within My Hands? Don't Tread on Me?
Will Skinner start tomorrow? This seems like a horrible decision by Knob lol
This is giving me Binnington over Allen in the last game of the St :Louis series vibes
No way he's 100% healthy, hit him a few times and he will crumble or give the puck away oftenHenrique (if healthy) is a massive boost for them. He's been very good for them since the trade.
Perry has been a complete shell of himself these playoffs. He was actually quite strong for them in the reg season. Buh bye.
We're gonna be in for a great one tonight.
I'm smelling overtime...
The other 3 series finished in 6 with the higher seed closing it out on the road. Van needs to follow suit as this is the last series to finish round 2. Better to close it out today than on Monday as round 3 will start based on who they want to see on Sat/Sun next week.It’s been alternating wins.

Fully recommend it to people if they can go. It's the full playoff experience minus players on ice Very loud and high energy. In-house anthem singer and band that plays at intermissions too
I will say probably best to avoid corner seats, as the curved screens give a slightly weird distorted view.
