Just got home, we’re down by two and have given up 3 goals to another playoff team. bruh.
I knew this game would be frustrating whichever way it went lol.
Christ. If Demko isn’t back soon, I’d rather just ride Silovs.
PDO favouring kings
Anyone else notice that little 3 in between kopitar’s jersey number?
One of the worst 100 points teams I’ve ever seen.
I’m not saying it’s his fault but desmith is not it
Demko can come back now… Like any time…
I wish we had a multi million dollar offensive player who could take over a game with his sheer talent and creativity.
LA is a team built for the playoffs
any voter who doesn’t have Hughes as the Norris winner should have their voting privileges revoked
Are comments back
Yeah this is just brutal
Fuck there’s nothing more frustrating than mostly dominating a game but getting 0 bounces and being down 2
I don’t think the goals are necessarily DeSmiths fault but you would hope he would have stopped one of the first two. I would argue that dumb penalties early hurt Vancouver as much as anything. They have no one to blame but themselves
69 subscribers until 150k !!!!
Must be nice having a goalie that can make a save under pressure lol
Can this team grind it out and pull a W pls
I think Casey needs to go spec-savers, cause clearly he can’t track anything, jesus christ man no confidence in him right now
Why did the refs pick up the stick when Kings were attacking earlier but just leave it on the ice when Nucks are attacking? I thought they always left it
Fuck you Talbot
Has anybody seen anything in the last 3-4 weeks to suggest we’ll beat LA, Edmonton or Vegas in a 7-game series? Asking for a friend.
all 3 shots have been bar down, one was a tipped cannon of a shot. Not making excuses but there’s a bit of luck involved there
Friedman said he doesn’t expect Demko for another week……and we play Vegas, Arizona and Edmonton
DeSmith would have allowed at least 2 goals during that pressure.
Podz looking good again tonight!
Kings have tired players out there. Nothing happens
Why did the ref pick up the entrant stick in the nucks zone but they left the one in the kings zone?
Demko, wherefore art thou, Demko?
Talbot looking like a Vezina trophy contender against us
If we get a goal desieve will give up one on the next shot, I want off this ride
We dominate them in playoffs if we have demko and we add back Lindholm
Wish we could’ve had an Arty Party 🙁
Through this unimpressive stretch of games, we’ve seen Hughes elevate his game and put the team on his back. I really worry we will vastly overpay for Hronek who just can’t drive a team half as much as Hughes can.
First round exit.
Can Talbot just remember that he’s dogshit
Canucks are buzzing, but we’ve been absolutely spoiled by Demko, Desmith looking really rough out there. All three he’s been beaten clean.
It will be a good shot in the arm for the team when demmer is back on the team
I dont think DeSmith wears all the blame here, but the guy is shaken, he isn’t moving confidently and is fighting the puck, you’ve got to get him out of there at this point
Test
Jesus fucking Christ can we really not beat the kings? So sick and tired of watching the Oilers beat everyone and we can’t get anything going. I’m drunk and mad
We are the weakest division leader this season
Y’all give up so quick like you wouldn’t be crying two goals is the most dangerous lead if it were us winning.
Watching these games on Viaplay in the uk is actually pretty cool. You get to hear the broadcasters talk about what their gonna discuss after the commercial break, and billy idol and that girl talk about having fun with the interview and pumping up the crowd
DeSmith looks like a little kid in net wtf.
Demko cannot come back sooner.
