I'm of two minds, the eeyore in me says no, but I've been pretty high on this team all year and called a western conference loss to Dallas when the season was still on so hard to back off.

If Dallas wins we win, if they lose we lose.

Vegas is the best team still in the west but Colorado would be a fun matchup with the nucks.

If I'm putting down money it's still on Vegas unfortunately

The NHL bet on VGK too by saying NO to the Canucks lobbying to change game 7 to Saturday.

That's 2 back to backs in the same series and against the deepest team in the NHL.

Green and the boys find a way to complete this comeback it will be legendary.

Do we complete the comeback?
- VANTEL


As long as Demko keeps playing out of his mind then yes lol. The Vegas forecheck is still giving the Canucks a poop load of problems so they'll probably outshoot and out chance us again


Proud of this team either way, but I want to beat these (frank)ers badly

I am noticing Canucks are giving Demko sight of the puck. There are a lot of high quality chances in front but also a lot from the outside. Canucks are making them pay the price in front and Giving Demko full view.

I agree, Blues did a better job of screening Marky. Plus the Canucks lead the playoffs in goals off of the rush, they're basically a good counter-attack team at this point, so they can win games like these as long as their goalie plays well lol



If the Canucks pull off that crazy upset, I hope someone on the team does this during the handshake line:

Think the Canucks can get through either team, Dallas would be the better choice. McKinnon is just insane though, I do not want to go up against him. Both team's D and goalie situations are suspect

- NewYorkNuck

I like AV’s cuz their team D doesn’t scare me. Match them scoring I like our chances

Of all the final 8 teams in this round we’ve won more elimination games in history.

Sportsnet did a story about this exact thing, giving clear shots but eliminating the cross ice passes/onetimers

Makar vs Hughes would be cool...big day tomorrow to get through first tho.

I don't think i'll watch the game, off to the hot pools with the family.

My work schedule makes it hard to post much these days, but I am so (frank)ing proud of this team!

Even if they end up losing tonight, there's no shame. They took a big favorite right to the edge, and Vegas is looking like the desperate club as of now.

But still... LET'S (frank)ING GO!!!

That gold is starting to look a bit tarnished.

For someone who wasn't going to watch summer hockey, because I figured I would be busy enjoying summer weather, I have enjoyed the games I have been able to watch during this wet fall like summer.
Win or lose tonight, the Canucks have impressed.

Go Canucks Go.

With 3 games 7's in this round, I would say Canucks are already tied for top 5, without Gaunce or Dowd.😷

Beagles line has been on for one goal against in the last three games. It is almost like Benning knew what he was doing.
