There were some stretches when this game was pretty fast and fun. I think the Canucks were able to break open the usual Kings snoozefest a few times but, yeah, LA is a rough team to enjoy watching lmao. One of the dudes on Sportsnet after the game said it reminded him of 2000s New Jersey and, oh yeah, that totally fits. I get that the shutdown is smart play and wins games but holy fck is it boring to watch if you're not a fanboy of the team
Playoff type atmosphere game. Canucks seemed to understand as much as you could see they were putting forth the physical effort tonight. However, the Kings are used to playing this way having played this way most of the season. Any Canucks fan calling it a boring game should know once the playoffs roll around, you can expect to see this type of hockey. If you think the Canucks are going to be successful trying to play run 'n gun hockey in the postseason, just ask the Oilers how that worked out for them last season against the Knights.
Unironically summing up the game with the greatest quote of all time from Matt Murray:
weird bounces, just a lot of really weird bounces, that first one he gets pretty lucky, just a lot of tough bounces. pretty much all the goals he got were kind of hilarious when you think about it. i mean you gotta look at some of those goals and just laugh.
Sorry that your Canucks lost at the hands of the Kings (the team that I root for), but tis better that some other team gets that Presidentâs Trophy đ than yours for the real prize: Le Coup Stanley.
The Kings are like the Lightning of the west. Not as good as they were once upon a time but once they sense a disturbance in your force they pounce, pounce, pounce.
I felt bad for you, whilst watching the match online, from here, on Manitoulin Island. The HNIC commentators and analysts mentioned "Heavy team, heavy hockey, heavy game", multiple times. Sure don't want to face LA in the first round.

I noticed dislikes have been disabled. Why the change? Just Curious
What time did you leave Abbostford ? Have you thought of maybe parking at Scott Road skytrain and Skytrain it in ? Keep up the good work

The second half of the game was painfully boring the kings are ass

I hope the Canucks/Jets somehow play each other in the playoffs! That would make epic vids with Shannon/Yvonne!

The drive home Canucks video are by far my favourite THG videos.
6pm starts are ridiculous. I know a few people that got there late. Both teams are pacific, theres no excuse to have 6pm starts.

Sry THG:/ hey just see it as us helping you guys, because do you really want the presidents trophy curse?

Sorry you guys made the long trek from Abby to DT Van for that kind of a game, but hey that's sports for ya. Love the in car review tho!

the kings are not a fun team to watch at all
Am I the only one who was worried that the seatbelt was going to cut into Shannon's neck?
Game was so boring I stopped watching …worked on my taxes and caught the last 5 min
I blame the early start time. I don't care what anyone says it definitely has an impact on games
The King's must've got a heads up, that there would be some "heavy hitting" VIP's in the crowd tonight, and they played accordingly!
