  1. The Canucks need to start finishing their checks when Knights players run their cheeky little interference all over the ice. Nobody’s making them pay a price and the refs dont have a problem with it. Run people over if they’re going to skate into your path.
  2. I decided to look into the full numbers behind it. The Canucks have been in a 3-1 series a total of 19 times in their history. Of those, 8 ended in game 5, 4 ended in game 6 and 7 ended in game 7. When you narrow that down to the Canucks being the team down 3-1, only 3 times did they lose game 5, twice they lost game 6 and they went 3-1 in game 7s for a total record of 3 series wins and 6 losses. A 33% chance to win the series isn't really any worse than most people's odds on the Canucks before the series started.
  3. He’s also a legend of game management and the Canucks are the team who need the Bettman Bonus to keep the series and the ratings rolling.
  4. It didn’t help them at all. It broke all their momentum but now they need to break Vegas’ momentum
  5. Well they do always say the breaks even out cause we’re gonna need them in the next 2.
  6. Extra 40 seconds of pressure after a nothing dump that would have barely went by the net clanks off the ref to another Knight
  7. Having the screen jump on the opposing goalie is certainly an interesting straetgy
  8. Throwing in a goalie who hasn’t played in two weeks against a team that excels after being shutout just seems like potentially a lot of pressure to put Lehner under for game 5.
  9. The positive is there will be goals. He’s given up 8 in his two starts to the Canucks this year. DeBoer is getting too fancy with this move.
  10. Vegas is 3-4 after shutting an opponent out this year and Vancouver is 5-1 after being shutout. Don’t get too up or too down as these are just steps towards an inevitable game 7.
