Nucks with 2 shots, that has to be a record for a game 7 playoff

3/4 odds to be up after tomorrow. But I guarantee I'm losing both.

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.

Vegas better bank on in off a skate or something soon or Vancouver will win this with one cheesey goal. The domination is unbelievable. They just need an ugly one and things will normalize.

Get dominated and hope you can score a goal and hang on. Quite the strategy.

Demko is about to steal an entire playoff series all by himself. This is nuts.

Why does the NHL always need an old man's opinion?

Only reason the Canucks are still in this game is Thatcher Demko. Can anyone honestly tell me why the Flames chose Mason McDonald over this brick wall here? Could be the same reason why the Flames are still searching for a #1?

Vegas is so fast and relentless, I don’t see them being a lottery team for years.

Surprised Jonathan Marchessault didn't cuss out that interviewer for wasting his time

Does Green know this isn't boxing, the Knights aren't Foreman and they won't tire out their arms by taking so many shots?

If Vancouver advances it will be a travesty.

Wow uh this is pretty lopsided.

I can see why the Canucks' odds were so long.

Not sure how accurate google is for this, but Only thing I could find is the lowest shots in a playoff game is 10 (Leafs game) and the lowest shots in a period while still winning was 0 by the Pens in 2004. Apparently went 30+ minutes without a shot.

Demko is in their heads.

The record for fewest shots in a playoff game is 6:

You just have to laugh at this point. This must be so incredibly frustrating for Vegas. They're playing lights out in every aspect of the game and yet can't buy a goal.
