I don't even understand the Canucks' strategy. Even if you're a worse team, how are you being coached to just chip the puck back to the other guys in the neutral zone so they can attack again? They don't even make an effort to break out unless their top line is on the ice. On dump ins, most of the time they don't even pursue, and on the rare occasion that they do, the puck goes the other way from the lone forechecker, and it's out of Vegas's zone without incident.

This is basically just Homer Simpson boxing. For Christ's sake, at least put your gloves up.
