  1. It was a weird high flying game, very fun but crazy how Ottawa got 2 quick ones (yet I never thought we weren't the better team) In OT we were in the drivers seat, but they were pretty passive - like the pressure got to them. Then in SO a Petey goal or Demko save is the difference. Things just didn't break our way tonight, I don't think the game was bad but having no margin for error, it really hurts. In reality some of the points dropped earlier on were worse than this, but is what it is.
  2. Vegas lost to NJ, we dropped a point to OTT, these kinds of team surprise at the end of the year. Chicago/SJ/ANA could easily take a game from LA. But then again, we are Canucks fans & the worst case scenario always happens - so they'll probably run the table.
  3. Im hopeful b/c I want to be, not b/c I think things are looking good Needed the extra point tonight but.. idk Ottawa played pretty hard, got a strange bounce on the 2nd goal, we couldn't capitalize on the PP... (didn't get an obvious one at the end of regulation). Where are you really going to point the crosshairs tonight? The forward depth is pretty depleted. LA probably has a loss in them to someone, then we beat them & maybe we can still get in. Gunna be hard but we'll see.
  4. They played well. Losing Horvat/Pearson/Hoglander/Chiasson is alot of top forwards... Halak going out of the game for Demko was weird. Its hard to find an individual target. Maybe Pettersson? (for the chances he missed & not getting much away in the SO)... idk, shootout is a coin flip. Got a point, now we need LA to drop a game but still alive. 1 win + 1 LA loss & we are right back in a good spot.
  5. Calgary is straight trash. Lost to Nashville, got blown out by Vegas. The one good game they'll play from now till their golfing in late May will be against us, watch. Stupid Lames.
  6. the most Canuck thing ever, Gaudette wining it after playing 5 seconds the whole game. Ugh, the PP chances they missed on. Had a feeling they'd live to regret them. What a rollercoaster of a game. 1 point is better than none but that was difficult. What are you going to do in a shootout.... with their (lack of) depth right now, they're wasn't much left beyond 4 shooters. Sucks but lets pick ourselves up & keep going.
  7. Playing Halak is the right move imo. He's been playing really well lately too, this isn't like playing DiPietro or something. Also both teams being on a B2B is advantageous, & Ottawa is starting Gustavsson.
  8. Sorta leaning Halak. Ottawa is playing B2B aswell, so this feels like the last game you can rest Demko. But we'll see.
