That goal was gift wrapped for him... but yeah, he's probably the best forward on the ice.  That's why they're the champs and he's getting paid 7.5 mil/year.  

 

My issue is that Brock held out for 7.5 in his final year.  Do we see him coming close to ROR?  If not, we shouldn't be paying him that much.  

He is, he's extremely valuable and one of the toughest players in the league to line up against

 

But yeah, that was made easy for him

Score first.  Check

Score on special team. Check

Win FO. 67%.  Check 

 

have to clean up the mental mistakes.  Blues are a physical team and will keep coming in waves. 

 

fast short shifts, nux can out skate them

 

tie it up soon, and dont let blues shut it down

They charge, late hit and get away with stuff.  I wish we could because it would make for a better game.  That's their MO when they get down...start running guys.

 

I wish we had someone to answer back for that.

Hansen talked about this after game 4.  That's not how this team was built.  He then talked about being on the Sharks, a team that was built to run the other guys into the boards and they still lost to Hawks.  So I don't know, I mean we all feel like if we had a tough guy on the team it would make a difference, but it wouldn't.  

 

Blues would still finish all their checks, that's just what they do.

Canucks top players were no shows in that first period. Miller gave the puck away at least twice.

 

Yet the blues top players in sh&tty schen and oreeillly both score.

 

If petey, bosers, miller, and horvat dont get going we are done. Still some time but not optimistic lol.

Why does it matter to you? Canucks aren’t going to win the cup until 2022 right?

Now I know who to replaxce for game 6, Benn.  Get OJ in the game and give him a game for experience.  Benn has been useless since he came in game 3.  

He was terrible in game 4 not sure why he got the opportunity again in this one to be honest. Still don’t understand why Gaud didn’t get to play game 4 when it was back to back. Smart coaches get fresh bodies in for the 2nd game of a b2b, but Green still uses Loui as a top 6 forward.....

You're not wrong. The guy is one of the few Blues players that plays clean and he's developed into a really, really good two-way player that comes alive in the playoffs. Every team would kill to have O'Reilly on their team. 

Did you see how great he was in the round robin?
