Roussel and Fantenberg showed zero effort on that play. A weak defensive effort all around, but for me, the worst offender on that play was Beagle. Rooster got caught trying to front Theodore at the blue line and Fanta got caught flat footed, but Beagle just waved his stick at him, instead of trying to establish some kind of body position.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbermen Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 What a performance by Demko. Take it one game at a time, remember all those 3-1 series with Chicago and Minny? We lost a few up 3-1 and won a few, LV must be worried, doubt we see Reaves laughing it up on the bench again this series. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post RUPERTKBD Posted September 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 2, 2020 Again, I'm sure this has already been stated, but Marchessault has become this series' David Perron for me.... The two hander to the back of Petey's legs was just the latest in a string of cheap shots from him. It's playoffs, so I don't expect retribution during the series, but next season, somebody better tune this little pr!ck in.... 5 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't mean that he didn't make a poor play on that goal though.... Fanta's was almost as bad and I think he's played way above his pay grade. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Lost in all this? Another game where Kelly Sutherland hasn’t f**ked us over. What’s that, three games in a row where he’s reffed with his whistle away? Bettman and Campbell finally give him an ultimatum? Sure hope so... 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than the two goals and maybe a few of Demmer's saves, my favorite play of the night was when Marchessault was driving to the net, got disrupted by Tanev and then did some face time with the end boards.... DeBrusk mentioned how that play had probably got him pissed off, because he gave Petey the slash right after. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainel Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Watching this playoff series has been very disheartening to our group that have been watching the Canuck vs Vegas games. We haven't seen such disgusting behaviour from an opposing team during games. Ryan Reaves is such a disgusting unprofessional sports athlete (?). Such an immature excuse for a man. Mouthing off an opponents coach and stupid name calling. The Knights are out to injure and maim the younger and smaller players with the aid of the so-called officials! Right in front of their eyes, they do not call penalties. The Knights almost strangle Roussel with his helmet strap, sandwich Hughes- many times, that is only a few. COME ON, good sportsman ship should be in every game. LIVES MATTER , HEALTHY BODIES MATTER . Do they think trying to permanently disabling someone is a smart thing to do? COME ON GROW UP and PLAY HOCKEY NOT MURDER (okay I have vented) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even out. lol As I watched the PVR last night, I saw Bo get a lil dirty. Hughes was coming out of the D zone and Bo turned at the blue line to head up. as he turned one of the Knights turned to follow him, Bo tapped the knights skate blade and he slid into our D zone...I just chuckled and sed to myself well there's something we never see. Or do we just homer our own team and block those out. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy is game and has been playing well, but I don't like having two undersized defensemen against a team as big as the Golden Knights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marchessault is one of the keys to this team potentially taking this series. Keep hitting him. Keep messing with him. He's a good target - a volatile hot head who doesn't have Perron's composure - he's susceptible to agitation - he has taken a handful of stupid penalties taking Vegas away from their strength - which is 5 on 5. For me he's right below Theodore and Schmidt on the list of guys to hit every opportunity they get. He had 14 ozone starts last night (87.5%) - and he wound up -1. He will be frustrated. The key is to build on that imo. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker 67 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Canucks had no business winning this game, the shots were 43 to 17 !!! lol But again, they got incredible goaltending to save the day. Awesome game by Demmer. Looking forward to another game tomorrow night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
