PGT van loses to queens

It was hilarious how quick he got kicked out but it set the tone. We didn't back down.

We've actually gotten bigger.

The Kings actually backed down when we pushed back.

When they can't win the game physically, that's when they start with all of their antics.

Our powerplay is the key to winning games like this. If we can't get that going, we're gonna have trouble.

Put your head in the sand, clueless moron.

Why? He's right.

This team used to be good enough that outgooning the goons was the furthest thing from our teams mind.

After going to the stanley cup final a moral victory against one of the least offensive teams in the league still comes across as sour.

It just had to be that POS that scores the GWG... and that little bitch Quick gets a shutout as well... there is no hockey God!!!

The Queens are the biggest divers in the league, the refs protect and not call the penalties that would've defused the tension early and they take out the guys that protect our stars!! ???? refs tried to fix this game early but the Canucks to their credit wasn't going to take that shiet sitting down.

Sestito will forever get my respect for sticking up and defending his teammates and captain.

Let the Queens enjoy this, lets make the playoffs and hurt them where it really matters.

After their 2012 run, I still can't believe the Vancouver Canucks are accused of the biggest divers in the leauge. It's unreal. Dustin Brown is the most classless captains in the leauge, it's unreal.

Nolan takes a run at Henrik Again. Nolan was out to hurt a star player.

Refs do nothing.

Sestito challenges Nolan, and Nolan cowards away, Sesito gets a 17 minute major, refs handing L.A kings all sorts of powerplays, despite their goonery.

Vancouver fights back with emotion, but still "random" calls, against Vancouver they don't even know what to call. Their call on Weise was a 4 second delay. Daniel takes a penalty by taking down Doughty (awesome play) Henrik gets penalized for it, shows how blind they are it;' hilarious.

More like they let the crowd make several calls. Just lends credence to the idea that the NHL has among the worst officiating in sports, be they biased (subconsciously or not), or inept.

Having to kill penalties the first 10 minutes really hurt their offense IMO.

When you start out a game like that you start off in a defensive mode that's hard to get out of.

Sestito really hurt the team there, and didn't even make Nolan pay that much. Not worth it to have a guy that's gonna make bonehead plays like that. Especially in the playoffs.

Don't disagree that Tom made a bonehead play but I think the PK really built momentum for the Nucks. they had more chances during the kill than LA and some of their best scoring chances came while shorthanded.

Dude, we've been pushed around like children for years. This is the first game we've fought back. Where have you been?

Not really - that was a 4 point game. We are now 4 points further behind LA.

We've lost 4 games to the Kings this year - That's 8 points more they got and 8 points less we got.

If it was the other way around, the Canucks would be sitting at 65 points (puts us in 2nd place) and the Kings at 53 (they would be holding down the last playoff spot).

You are the one that's clueless.

meh, Weise is an idiot for even making contact. Stupid, stupid play.

Oh for sure but it goes both ways. That was a dive. He actually grabs the post for a half second of anit-gravity in order to complete his performance. People give soccer players a hard time and that's Oscar worthy right there.

I tend to agree. It's about finding a fine line between playing physical and focusing on scoring.

Tonight they seemed so focused on proving something that they forgot they need to score to win the game.

Now that they know they can play like that, it's time to get back to their real game, which is skill and speed.
