The Canucks had their chances but not the bounces. Vegas got the bounces. 

Do you watch the game or the score?

Say what?  I saw zero Grade A chances and maybe like 3 Grade B chances.  The rest of the game was the Canucks shooting weak wristers from the blue line and peeling off for a change.

Same coach who made adjustments last series, but with that said, it was boneheaded.

Weird lines from the get go, seemingly for no sense. Postmodern coaching is postmodern, I guess.

 

I am personally most concerned with team D structure, or lack thereof beyond "clog up the middle of the ice". Concerned isn't a strong enough word heh.

its one game im sure travis will change some  stuff up  macewen and grav need in and hit anything that moves  we need  our stars not bullied  time to protect pettersson  makes me sick to my stomach when teams run him

Love all the coaches on this board.
 

Anyways, here’s to a stronger effort Game 2. Boys looked tired and not engaged like we seen in the STL series.

 

Vegas is beatable. Let go Nucks!

100% accurate.

1 day off after a hard fought series, while Vegas had 4 days off. These guys aren’t machines, fatigue definitely was in play here. Hats off to Roussel for trying to spark the team. 
 

Can’t wait for game 2! 

I agree.

 

I also don't think Vegas is this machine that can't be stopped (either).  I think they get away with stuff and Reaves is an ass who gets away with stuff that Rous didn't.  Not sure why?  And if Myers did half of what happened out there, it would be noticed.  I'm REALLY tired of the double standard.  They got...one tripping penalty I think.  But apparently these aren't penalties.  Rous trolling Reaves gets all the attention.  Just infuriating.

 

Nope, not a cross check.  Nothing to see here...move along.  (They were all over Quinn and double teaming him at times).

 

I remember this one...was a charge after the puck was gone.  Maybe we could hit the puck off Frankenstein's fat foot into the net?

 

Nope, no penalties here....this is allowed in hockey.  It's called face checking.

 

But hugging a guy to tell him to piss off?  NOPE, NOT ALLOWED...MISCONDUCT.

 

 

I'm getting real tired of the one sidedness of it all.  Did it matter in this game?  Likely not.  But it certainly doesn't help.

 

Is it hockey or ?

Tyler Garbagevac is not the answer Lolololololo 

[amplified0ne]

Just have to play, not get involved in the shenanigans

Tryamkin is the answer... but he won't be here this year... but should be next if Benning has any sense at all.

I once read that if any Canadian team wins the cup, it's a 150 mill loss in downstream revenue.

Take that for what you will.

Tram re-signed in Russia again. Unsure if he can opt out or not, but he's not likely playing here next year. 

[theo5789]

We will bounce back from this one

If that's the case, then that is worst decision of Benning career here to let him go.

Pathetic game

 

Green has zero game plan for Vegas 

 

DeBoer was prepared for Vancouver 

 

lack of structure was in full view and lack of in game adjustments in full view 

 

 

 

 

This above is the classic over reaction that makes us look bad. Sloppy hockey, yes. But this is our 11th game in three weeks. Give the players and the coaching staff a bone every once in a while. Sheesh 

[ruilin96]

Not our night. We will see how the team adjust next game. The team does seem tired and emotionally not quite in this series yet. We should see a better Canucks team in game 2.

He had no choice in the matter, Tryamkin signed in Russia as he was free to do so...

Seemed just fine in the games he played with us. I wouldn’t slot him in myself unless there was an injury. But calling him garbage is pretty classless

Amazing how quiet he was when we wiped the floor with the Blues.

One thing I hope Benning is paying attention to is the intimidation factor... i.e.  Reaves...  and what Tryamkin would do to reverse that if he was on the roster.

 

Tryamkin should be a member of this team... too late now because of Covid, but next year if he isn't on the team, I will have to re-think my support of Benning.

Tryamkin did not want to play that kind of game.
