Carol Schram: Alex Edler plays hero as Leafs fall; Canucks now face Oilers in Edmonton Alex Edler led the way and scored the overtime winner as the Vancouver Canucks bounced back from a lackluster road trip with a heartening win over the Toronto Maple Leafs. They'll look to string together back-to-back wins and move up the Western Conference standings when they take on the Oilers in Edmonton on Thursday.

Your boys seem to come prepared for games against the Oil so I think it's fair to say your boys will win this one. 5-2 Nucks.

Franken leaf fans, shouting go leaves go on the moment of silence for terrible ted Lindsey. Nuck fans were shouting back to shutup.

I wouldn't call the edler shot a floater carol, he has a good wristshot when it doesn't hit shinpads, having said that good goalies would want that back for sure.

He was sneaky with the shot.

Glad they shut up the losers.

He wasn't looking at the net when he shot it. Caught the goalie by surprise.

He should try that with his point shots from the power play more often. Look at Petterson for the one-timer pass and then just get it on net.

Not sure why edler hasn't perfected getting pucks to the net...

It's McDavid.
Is Marky confirmed or Demko?

Agreed.
Has been very noticeable this last couple months (essentially when Tanev and Edler started taking their sick leave)

Thanks Carol

5-3 Oil

Cue the run to finishing 1 or 2 places out of the playoffs

Battle of the powerhouse rebuilds


4-1 Canucks

Cue the run to finishing 1 or 2 places out of the playoffs

Well at least that would help ease the anxiety for those fans in desperate need of validation that the team has improved.

Instead of chants of Fire Everyone! they could get down to just a few select sacrifices. Perhaps Newell Brown and their Director of Injury Prevention.

It's McDavid.
