I don't know if it was visible on TV, but the canucks were hanging back as a 5 man unit until about 8 seconds left when they sent in one forechecker.

Vancouver played much better defensively than Calgary did last game, and a big part of that was just hanging back and not giving a clear path through the neutral zone.
