Still down 1-0 though sweets!

When you try get in shooting lane to block a shot, you have to make yourself big, not small, like on that goal against. Like Tocchet said, feel the pain.

That just happened on a harmless looking shot that Demko lost track of but hey you keep hating sweets.

Canucks had up to then the better of play and shot attempts. Which they continue to do. It’s tough luck there after Demko made a fantastic save earlier in the game.

It's pretty evident, you prefer pond hockey

You wouldn’t know the difference between good hockey and poor hockey, sit down mini-me. Tocchet won’t be thrilled with this first period. It was just ok. Getting chances but they need to clean some things up.

They had one shot at even strength from a forward (Petey), not good enough. Early though. Some nerves involved.

Agree there is some things to clean up. Mostly getting shots on net. They keep missing on the looks they have had.

I don't get to concerned about the 1st period of the playoffs. They did some nice things, but yes, they can clean up a few things

Canucks up on the hit clock 20-15, but generated just four shots. Preds clogging up neutral zone and forcing too many dump-and-chase scenarios. Little O-zone time.

Need to hit the net. Decent chances but no finish.

Not sure what Kuzma thinks they should be doing, it is playoff hockey, you can't keep trying to force your way into the offensive zone, unless you want to keep turning over the puck.

If you’re going to dump and chase you need speed thru the neutral zone and to win the majority of 50/50 puck board battles. If they try and hold you up they’re going to take penalties. Good road period for the Preds, Canucks need to find a way to hold onto the puck more at evens.

Nice

Lindholm on the rush.

Nice shot LINDY!

Atta boy Lindy!

Nice shot LINDY!

Hitting the net! My feed had a minute delay seeing the posts here lol.

There we go, more speed on pucks and wining puck battles equals possession time.

That goes without saying. Next time I'll write an essay for you.

Quinn can't be doing those types of things, as Tocchet said, feel the pain

Demko just got enough of a piece there to deflect that.
