Vortex1 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 There have been 12 times in the past when the Canucks trailed a best-of-seven series two games to one: 1) In four of those series, the Canucks won game 4 to tie the series. 75% of the time they subsequently lost the series: a. Wins: 2010 against LA (in 6) b. Losses: 1989 against Calgary (in 7); 1993 against LA (in 6); 1996 against Colorado (in 6) 2) In eight of those series, the Canucks lost game 4 to fall behind 3-1. 38% of the time they subsequently won the series: a. Wins: 1992 against Winnipeg (in 7); 1994 against Calgary (in 7); 2003 against St. Louis (in 7) b. Losses: 1975 against Montreal (in 5); 1992 against Edmonton (in 6); 1994 against NYR (in 7); 2007 against Anaheim (in 5); 2010 against Chicago (in 6) Statistically, therefore, it makes sense for the Canucks to lose tonight.

Brouhaha Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Win tonight and have a decent chance of going up 3-2 at home would be swell. But it's going to be tough to pull one out in Calgary I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOMapleLaughs Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 What, we lose tonight then wtf? OF COURSE we're going to win! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everybody Hates Raymond Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Only 2-1, and Vrbata playing with the Sedins is going to help. Still a series Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Fig Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 The stats are skewed because the 1975 team had the benefit of Cheesey Rochefort in the lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightHawkSniper Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Didn't we go down 3-1 to Calgary then came back to make it 3-3 in 2004? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VancityBeast Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Today's win will change your numbers tomorrow Remember, Game 3 was the first time Calgary has played that well in the last 20 - 25 games. It is going to be 3 - 1 game tonight with Sedin, Verbata and Horvat scoring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tocnhockey Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 impressive 1st post screw those stats.......our team is not going down without a fight yeah!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Ah, simplistic stats with wildly varying time differences to decide if we should win or lose and how it better decides the outcome of the series. I get that it's fun to look at, but even if one end is trending higher than the other, the law of averages would suggest the opposite might be true. The only way to approach it is to win.

Bo.Horvat53 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I honestly think we'll take it to them tonight. Vrbata is going to go all out with the Sedins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbdoubleu Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Didn't we go down 3-1 to Calgary then came back to make it 3-3 in 2004? No. We were up 2-1 in that series and lost games 4 and 5. Rallied in 6, lost in 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 1st post, came here to OP that. Welcome to CDC. Wishful thinking though. Which part of Calgary are you from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dasein Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Calgary lost a bunch of series in a row after going up 2-1 leading up to this one, so we should statistically lose game 4 but win the series But we all know your stat and my stat are both bogus and has no impact whatsoever on tonight's game because these are two different teams who were never around for that "history" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zuongo Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 We really need to win. Calgary isn't going to let up from being 3-1 up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuxfanabroad Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 The '93 loss to the Queens/Gretz, REALLY burned my bacon. Had they won, would've been a Van/TO vs Mtl(absolutely EPIC, all-Cdn) final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanucklehead10 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 It doesn't matter. Whoever wins this series is going to get bounced by the Jets/Ducks anyways. This is a team with one first line, two third lines, and a fourth line. With the inconsistency and inferiority in comparison to many other teams in these playoffs, the Canucks are only fighting for a lower pick in the draft. Am I wrong? As everyone is saying, WHO KNOWS? right? There is excitement and hope for now, but if the Canucks end up losing this series, everyone will once again hop off the bandwagon and cry and complain, even though it was expected that the Canucks aren't top contenders and are basically equals (as it's showing in these series) with another team that just came off a rebuild.
