He's basically the defense version of Gaudreau. Not the fastest, like Makar, but his edgework is so good that his size isn't really an issue because guys have a hard time getting clean hits on him.

I think people are giving the Canucks a lot of credit before this game ends. Plenty of time left for them to blow it, and the Blues are pressing. I'd say it's 50 50 right now.

They have only given up 6 shots in the 3rd... seems like they are locking it down and I hate it

This has to be one of the most impressive playoff games in VAN history.

Who'd a thunk you could pull JT Miller from Tampa's 2nd/3rd line, plop him on your 1st line and have him turn into a 30 goal 80 point forward at the age of 26?

Fantenberg on the ice for the Canucks in the last minute, defending a one goal lead against the cup champs. Clears the zone twice.

Not good enough for the Flames though.

Flames would rather quit skating and let an inferior team fire away until they tie it.

I don’t get it.

Markstrom is earning a big pay day. Who wants him? Puck didn’t even cross the line at the end there.

I would make him an offer...that game should have been 5-1 or worse in the 2nd

I feel dirty saying good things about the canucks. 2020 has truly done a number on all of us.

Credit where credit is due. Benning is proving to be a better GM.

They are a team that could be easy to get behind.
