Do it for Demmer
Here’s hoping Nashville makes Tocchet eat those words. Preds in 6.
And that’s why he’s one of the best, he cares and he wants it. He’s a winner. Let’s go boys!!! Do it for Demmer!!
Starting to sound like a blessing in disguise.
5:45 If the Canucks only win 2 of their next 4 games, they could possibly be down 0-2 in the second round….
I still have the heart for this team no matter what happens 💙 they are going to overcome this situation A situation that we can deal with we need that faith back like we did for game 1 and game 3. I have faith in Casey I sure do and and I have faith in Silvos 💯💪 Canuck here 🙏
How can you spew this krappe?
get off fahans tip bro
GO NUCKS GO NUCKS IN 5!!!
😂😂😂😂
Does anyone know when hes coming back
Jack Adams Award Winner: RICK TOCCHET
A great thing to emotionally unite the players to fight for Demmer, could take them a long way, I hope.
Thatcher living up to his name and building DeSmith's roof for him. What a leader.
That's what I like to hear from Tocchet, you can only keep winning. When Demko gets back, they'll still be playing. I figured, as a fan, that I was just stoked they made the playoffs. Expectations were exceeded so everything else is gravy; DeSmith making a story of it would be great, and hopefully Demko is feeling better soon.
They win tomorrow finish in van city
Nashville predators and seven. So hopefully he’s back within three games. Are the cities gonna riot. Déjà vu
I heard fans saying "Take my Knee Demko, My knee is yours"
I hope we get it done in 5 simply to save on travel that extra trip to nashville is huge. but I wouldn't complain if we had the same result as 2011 where we went W L W W L W vs Nashville.
Canucks don't really need Demko until the WCF aka 3rd round…… Casey is still a better goalie than anything the Oilers got.
