Yes and a disjointed effort by the Canucks. I think their skating ability in the lower half of the lineup is beating us.

Trolling for my line-up suggestion? Lol

Yeah, good observation. Hadn't really thought of it but their bottom 6 is fast. Also quite big and physical.

Not really, I can make my own if I know who's available.

It really depends on who's available.

Steve Austin doesn't kill penalties like our 6 million dollar man.

I'm still looking at some of the depth that's been sitting. Guys are likely getting a little tired, good time to find something out and sit some of the older guys for a game.

I didn't notice how Vegas bottom 6 did in the dot.

They didn't need to be good in the dot. They pretty much took the puck when they wanted it. Our top 6 needs to get going or we're hooped.

Vegas has done this before to the Canucks and not scoring first is a huge factor in momentum.

Though main thing is that the Canucks best players didn't have their best games and VGK did.

There were a lot of misses on net as well. Bit of the mental game was not having confidence with the puck and mishandling it in both zones.

They were hesitating not playing fast and yes bobbling pucks, missed passes but it's only 1 game.

So I sit LE and one of Sutter/Beagle. They're kind of redundant in the lineup against the Knights, you need more speed and offense.

Taking LE out is great! But then Green won't shorten his PK options too much more by scratching one of Sutter or Beagle as well.

After listening to VGK players laughing at Roussel after the game and seeing him miss a tap in and getting a misconduct that kind of distraction could need a night off. If TT isn't good to go then put in Bailey with Zacmac and have them run guys.

I think Roussel will be fine. I also want his forechecking in the lineup.

The ref made it very clear from the start that he didn't want rooster to agitate, it's the playoffs.

The Canucks absolutely dominated the faceoff circle. Vegas should be embarrassed.



This game was a lot like game 1 against the Wild, except Vegas is a way better team than Minnesota. The Canucks just need to unclench a little bit. I’m not sure they can hang with Vegas, but they’re a better team than they showed tonight.

I don't think i've spoken the word broad since I was 7 or so when my mother slapped me for using it. She explained it to me then.

That's great that younger women you know don't find it offensive when used in a certain voice and context. They clearly didn't grow up when women were just broads.

- golfingsince

Yes, i do think this is absolutely the case.

Maybe this could be a positive factor if TG can exploit it. If Vegas think this is over thats the time to surprise them.

How come the second intermission panel could endorse Reaves making chicken noises to Rousell?!?! Imagine if Rousell made monkey\gorilla sounds

This type of garbage comment would make Mike Milbury cringe. Luckily you have the internet to hide behind. So stupid.

Smells like a Vancouver riot in 4.

Wish they would have let Reaves and Roussel have it out for his little spear at the end.

Still partial to Michael Keaton’s version


- bloatedmosquito

Keaton was also a controversial choice at the time but it turned out ok. The two Keaton Films as Batman were made better by Tim Burton and his artistic vision rather than Keaton playing batman himself. Bale is still by far the best Batman so far IMO..and Aflleck was better than he got credit for. But lots gravitate to the Keaton Batman as that was their first exposure to the character...which is understandable.
