What impressed me the most is how determined the boys were to win. We were never going to win the cup but we played like we were. Eventually, the inexperience caught up with us, but I 100% believe this playoffs was the best thing that could have happened to our young core. Now they know what it takes to win. Many players elevated their game, and others showed enough to help Benning make decisions this offseason. I firmly believe our cup window is closer than we think.

They didn't start from a rebuild, they were handed their pieces and draft picks for free. Kudos to their GM but they are not comparable. Did you legitimately think the Canucks would win the cup this year? Those are high expectations for a team that made the playoffs for the first time since its rebuild. No excuses. I'm being realistic.

The fact this team made it this far is unbelievable. We can see the future we have in our young guys. They got so much experience out of these playoffs, we're going to take a bigger step next season (which is right around the corner guys). What Demko did to get us to a 1 goal game 7 is incredible. He's our #1 starter in a season or two. Guaranteed. Vegas will probably win the cup, they're extremely dominant, and to think that if we had scored a couple we probably would have won, which is absolutely insane. I am more than satisfied with these playoffs, I love this team, and I can't wait to see how we look next year with new ELC's making the team and perhaps some trades.

At this point, run with Demko. He's fresh. Let him be the savior of this series. No matter what happens, this is valuable experience for our future #1. Vegas is getting a bit nervous. They should have won this game, but they couldn't beat Demko. This is all about momentum now. Boys, you need to come out HARD next game, and then watch Vegas collapse. If we force a game 7, we win this series.

No matter what happens next, we exceeded expectations. Calgary and Toronto were supposed to be far ahead of us in their rebuilds, but look, we're the only Canadian team left standing. Two exciting series of hockey that we haven't experienced for 5 years. Not to mention that we knocked out the Stanley Cup champions... The future is bright people. Let's stop pretending that we were legitimate contenders for the Cup. It's been fun, but that was never the case. Pettersson, Hughes, and Horvat have proven that they are big time players for us, and they're not even fully developed yet. I'm thankful for what I got to experience here. All of those painful years were worth it. Remember, we only get better from here.

Haven't felt this way in a long time. 5 years of pain and it was so worth it. I'm so happy Tanev got that goal. He was our anchor back there. Played excellent all night. So happy for him. The team looked great, Marky let in softies but the boys won it for him. Love the story in that. Guys that was just so f%$^$% epic. I'm so happy for all of us here tonight

Tanev was the player I noticed the most in Game 1.
