This was one of those games we have lost the past few years, games that just slip away, but this year we look so much tighter.
Beaullivier is an actual black hole. Get him out of there when Stanley Cup champion Blueger is ready.
Congrats to Mikheyev on getting the first goal!
I wasn’t ready to care so much so soon.
LFG.
The best part of the season so far is that we’re winning in sustainable ways. We’re not just getting lucky and riding Demko into the ground. Really hope we can keep the momentum going at home. Coconuts glow!
Guys did we singlehandedly derail the oilers’ season?
Is this the first time the Canucks won without points from Petey and Miller? Just curious
Great game from our bottom six. Suter, Lafferty, Garland, and Beauvillier all played well. Would love to see more from Joshua. Hoggy played great, and I hope Toch keeps him in the lineup over Studnicka.
I’m really liking what I’m seeing out of Höggy
every line out chanced their opponent. good overall team game imo
How do you explain how crap the oilers have been this season? Did that opening game just completely rock them? Or is there more at play? It’s hard to work out how they became so terrible over the summer.
Canucks played the second period entirely downhill and sometimes that’s all you need. So nice to have Mikhayev back.
Honestly that’s the most Ernestly hard fought and enjoyable game I’ve seen played in a canucks jersey in I can’t remember how long . Not just the win but every ones give give a f meter was high . Forecheck / back check was there . Good defensive reads . Busy sticks . Patience with pucks and not forcing plays . That was lovely in so many way . Tochets coaching accountability and look not further then myeres ice time . And also loved to the fourth line on paper and even more on ice . Truly hope that Sticks . Michayev instantly makes the Peterson / kuz line a threat . Miller honestly making me so happy he’s locked up longer term and Every line was good and only defensive pare that struggled a lot was myers . Loved it . LFG!!!!
Anyone watching the flames lose too?
It’s surprising how much having Mihkeyev back let’s all of our lines ‘click’. We have four solid lines that all play to their roles.
Oilers fans really thought Ekholm would solve all their defensive problems lol
pulling for the flyers tonight
Atleast they’re off to a good start for once.
Uhhhh, did the Leafs finally get a real goaltender?
If we do sign Bear I wonder if that means Myers is the odd man out
Canucks are 4 – 2…
Calgary is 2-3-1 paying nearly 20 million for pylons
Oilers 1-4-1 Mcdavid injured they cant win with or without him
Both are considered a playoff contender all the while we arent
This is a fucking great start to the season
Boring wins are much nicer than boring losses.
For the first time this season, I didn’t put a $5 bet on the other team to win when we were up two goals. Am I starting to believe?
I knew it would be a win because another truck hit an overpass in the lower mainland today.
Oilers lost, flames lost, Canucks won.
I’m loving it, Jerry!
If anyone wants a night time chuckle go check out Oilers subreddit
Leave Myers in nashville please
The folks roasting Mike from Surrey in the text line on SN650 is fucking hilarious.
Playoffs
So, on the whole this was a good push from the team. And ultimately I would say this team is showing a lot of real promise here.
Next game will be a big one – first game back after a road trip is always a tough one. But let’s see if that can be one of those ones we can squeak out into a real streak.
So far I like this team.
4-2-0 blaze it
Just watched Demko’s post game media availability and it’s clear guys are tired of this 2 weeks road trip and can’t wait to go home, good for them for closing with 2 wins and not giving up
Loving Jay Onrait calling out that he did Frozen Frenzy first.
