Yeah thanks for pointing out the obvious that they are tired and Vegas is rested. The fact is the Canucks are getting manhandled in every facet of the game and are going to have to make adjustments which they haven’t yet.
I hope Green can settle them down after the first and get them back to playing their game. The Canucks are simply letting Vegas control the pace of the game and it seems as if the puck keeps bouncing off of our sticks. Keep it simple boys.
Pittsburgh won their cup in 2016 without having Letang. Actually, they had Brian Dumolin, Justin Schultz, and a bunch of other misfits. I know we don’t have Sidney Crosby and it’s rare, but you can do it without having a star studded defensive core.
Honestly didn’t think they could pull this off after going down 3-1. The resilience and heart of this team is enlightening and no matter what happens moving forwards these playoffs, this team is destined for success.
This team has been a treat to watch but reality is they just don’t have the jam yet to beat a team like the Blues. I really thought they could get it done but the lack of defensive depth is showing. Boeser has been a huge disappointment as well.
