  1. Love the canucks but demko can't just stand there setting a pick. He did get tripped tho so I dunno. Weird play, good no challenge cuz they could of got a penalty if they lost it. Then canucks scored shorty after anyway

  2. Its crazy how many people have no clue what they're talking about. Demko literally sat out of his crease after playing the puck and seeing Holloway coming, and then chose to stand there and set a pick/block on him. Had the oilers not scored, this should have been a interference call on the vancouver goalie. He didnt even attempt to take a step back towards the crease after playing the puck.

  3. As a Canuck fan, the goalie has to try to make it back to the net, if Demko tried and got obstructed then it's a penalty. Instead, Demko tried to set a pick. Correct call by the Refs.

  4. Demko playing dirty and trying to pick the Edmonton player is amazing

  5. Demco actually put his leg out a bit instead trying to get out of the way, to bad this was the right call

..and it’s Halloway dumb ass.

  6. Demko saw the Edmonton player coming in, turned around with the style intention to run interference and got tripped and scored on for his efforts. Glad there was no call.

  7. Keeper had established position- but both players went down so nothing was called. Both players tried to get a penalty for themselves. .. many times during a game there is allot of so called incidental contact, where players are probably interfered with and nothing is called- because it often happens away from the play. I would have called a trip against Edmonton, because the goalie had established position, and that contract prevented the keeper from moving back to the crease..

  8. I mean doing this to any player without the puck would be a penalty right?

  9. Demko's both skates are facing opposite goal as Holloway is about to cross the icing line. Demko spots him and intentionally turns to block him, maybe to draw a penalty or to set a pick. Good call by the refs to let the play go on.
