One goalie faced a lot more egregious breakdowns than the other. And it wasn't Markstrom.
Anyway, whatever. Happy with the win.
I thought they had about the same. I can’t think of two on ones against Demko, or back door tap ins. They each had a breakaway if you count the PS. Demko had two partial breakaways against Toffoli and got scored on. He didn’t look great on the Stecher goal. I guess that was equal to the Canucks’ powerplay goal.
Idk lol. Can you beat the Canucks anti-tank squad?

Playoff game for Vancouver

Lol.... remember when we were here having debates whether we should draft MDC, Virtanen or Ritchie?
Quote:
They’ve played well for sure, but I think that when you look at the season as a whole they played well below their level to start the year. Demko’s poor play then injury, horrid goaltending without him, I think they would have turned it around regardless. I hope that the new coach bump is real this year.

Don't see any real reason not to play the college kids. Last game was bad and would be a good reason to give them a shot.

Canucks with a rare chance to stick a fork in the Flames playoff balloon. About as close to a 'must win' game for a team like the Canucks, who'll be exchanging sticks for golf clubs in a few short weeks.
Seems to me the Canucks blew out the Flames in a memorable game last season at Rogers Arena. Old buddies Markstrom and Demko will face each other in the crease.....so that should be motivation.
Pretty sure Tocchet would secretly like to stick it to Flames bench boss Darryl Sutter as well. Should be an interesting game.
Quote:
No matter what the circumstances, I love games against Calgary. I know we don't have the insane rivalry with them that the Oilers do, but we sure have a history. And if it's Demko vs, Marky tomorrow night, all the better.
So now there's Marky, Tanev (still injured?), Toffoli, and Stecher as ex-Canuck Flames. Anyone I've forgotten?
Quote:
Under normal circumstances I'd be rooting for an L to improve our draft position, but given its against a Flames team with a chance to make the playoffs...let's go get the W boys.
Quote:
Wow!.....that Canucks blueline! Being held together with paper clips, duct tape and baling wire.
Undoubtedly the Flames will subject that group to a hard, aggressive forecheck. Demko will need to stand on his head again for the Canucks to have a chance.
Quote:
Sorry Calgary. Canucks win and then you'll be annexed into the Vancouver empire and every street in Calgary will have a White Spot and Starbucks
Quote:
We can't permanently destroy Calgary's playoff hopes tonight, but we can definitely significantly damage them with a win.
Quote:
So a win seriously hurts Calgary's playoff chances, and a loss helps us lose ground on StL/Washington/Detroit
What do I want lol....
Quote:
Let me guess they will tie it up in the 3rd and lose in OT or SO just to get a point..... GG.

This Myers pairing is getting killed. If they want to be a playoff team they absolutely need to find a new home for this guy.

Vancouver and Calgary is like watching 2 mediocre ECHL team go at it.
Quote:
They can go f*** themselves instead. An absolute embarrassment that a team with that many loser points is going to make the playoffs. Garbage league
Quote:
i tuned into a Flames game and all I saw was Flames on the PP. Cripes how many PP's do they get in a game. They had a penalty shot as well.
6PP's and a penalty shot in same game. Flames only tie game up late due to yet another PP. When do the Oilers get that kind of NHL table service?

Great game to be at. Some very nice passing sequences. Also thought Zadorov had a very good game. Was absolutely giving it to Miller in front of the net all night. Toffoli needs an extension as well, clutch player.
The Canucks are terrible but have been playing well, this was a game they wanted. Score flattered them but the Flames were also pretty bad for the first half or so. Nice to see them reach for another gear and get the critical 2 pts. Stecher was also surprisingly very good, Flames played with lots of emotion tonight. Need more of that.
