A depleted team that hasn't played in ages. 3 PP's, one a 5 minute major, Canucks have had none, 30-12 shots through 2 periods and we are up by 1. Who woulda thunk?

Holtby has been good

He has, but they were out against exhausted PKers 2 or 3 times and could only barely eke at a goal at the end of 5 minutes.  Just pathetic execution.

Yes but we've squandered some good chances because they think they have to make that perfect play. Should of had 3 -4 in the 1st alone. Canucks are going to get a PP or two in the 3rd. That will be the telling tale how this game plays out. Unfortunately it shouldn't even have to come to that if they buried some of their chances.

Who cares, they scored on it. They could have had 2 other goals except JT missed an open net and Holtby made a big save in Gally.
 
The last couple of games Marner has been doing a little too much lying to stick handle through four players

If Hyman is out long term we are screwed. I am the fan of a cursed team.

Wouldn't surprise me.

We're not screwed.  He's an important player but he isn't Matthews.

Messes up the other lines. The third line has nothing going on without Hyman. Also Hyman can get either of the first two lines going when needed. He's also a penalty killer and great defensively so he's pretty important
 
These cross ice one timer plays aren't working. They need to get in front of the goalie and just shovel one in.

I'm not seeing what all the love for Robertson is.

He?s an evasive player who has an NHL caliber shot.  He needs more seasoning to improve his NHL timing and to get stronger but he isn?t there just yet
 
Canucks probably running on adrenaline and emotion tonight. I bet they're worse on Tuesday
