  1. What ever happened to f+*k around and find out? Lol. Mc Folded! Kane upside down in his own bench. Let's Go Canucks!

  2. This is what My-Eye saw.Connor instigated an after the Whistle physical engagement behind the net to fire up and inspire and to lead his Teammates into battle — par for the course hockey play– Mcdaivd 2-Handed an Opponent to show his fire -par for the course hockey play- and in response that opponent threw a horizontally projected crosscheck to the CHEST making Connor leap and lean back fast-par for the course hockey play- unfortunately before the retaliatory crosscheck to the CHEST of mcdavid could impact a Vancouver Support Player who had just witnesses the 2-Handed after the whistle attack on his Teammate responded with a retaliatory crosscheck to the back-par for the course hockey play– that impacted prior to Souceys reply and buckled Mcdavids legs faster than normal combined with his prior lean back and these actions in concert brought Connors head DOWN TO CHEST LEVEL where he was incidentally raked by Souceys crosscheck. So really all we saw were par for the course hockey plays that together @ a bad time created poor optics that mislead us until we break them down honestly like this. I want Kris to break down the whole game for me the way I just showed because I believe that what happened to Connor is a microcosm of the Team current challenges across the Board. WHat I want Kris to take out of this post is that Connor just did what true Leaders do and there were no supports near him to react fast enough to support and protect him…no one was there physically to have his back….Connor was all by himself manifesting the moment and failed because he was alone and maybe the Oilers System has similar dynamic issues if we look close enough. These things can be adjusted quickly. And remember to be honest…the Canucks did not abuse your Captain and Connor did the right thing and the only lesson to take out of it all is to stick together till you are off the ice or go down swinging all by yourself. Look in the mirror for solutions. How much of themselves would hundreds of NHL Players be willing to give today to be able to be behind that net to defend their Captain who is in the 2nd Round of the Playoffs trying to lead them to a Stanley Cup? The better you all perform the BETTER THE HOCKEY GETS FOR ALL OF US EveryFans so get to work and make more drama and excitement for us to enjoy…. time to step up or step back.

  3. As a Canucks fan, I love his compete level…sports is not for the faint of heart…You do what it takes to win…clean or dirty.

    What I dislike is the preferential treatment the Oilers are seeming to get. A few dodgy missed calls.

  4. I think playing the Oilers top line 30 minutes a night benefit the Canucks. The Oilers depth is non existent and even more so when they play only 7-8 minutes a night.

  5. McDAVID CANNOT DO IT ALL…must get more physical period! Other players have got to step up. McDAVID AND LEON DRAI ARE CARRYING THE TEAM AS IS ZACH HYMAN…hello RNH! Get yer act together …KANE WIPE THAT SMILE FROM YOUR FACE and get to work! Same for McLEOD , HOLLOWAY AND JANMARK…same for COREY PERRY THE LIVING FOSSIL…what was BROWN DOING OUT THERE…and the oilers should protect McDAVID-he is the franchise …step up and fight back against their big D…start throwing your weight around …punish ZADOROV for that dirty hit on McDAVID …this wouldn’t happen in the 80s with GRETZKY… I know McDAVID CAN DISH HITS AND BE PHYSICAL AS WELL…too much fancy passes. Crowd the net…the goalie for the CANUCKS is a third string goalie …😩😤

  6. I feel for him, McDavid. The Oiler's are not getting play-off level goal tending. And you can't go deep into the run without it. As well the Canuck's have punished the Oiler's and frustrated their first line especially. The Canuck's didn't win all 4 regular season games against the Oiler's by chance. In fact they beat them a couple times in high numbers against.
    I honestly can't see his series going beyond 6 games.

  7. Mcdavid consistently kept saying “they have big Dmen” 😂 translate to kicking our ass every time we are out there 😅

  8. He’s superMcDAVID UNSURPASSED STRENGTH…built from steel …faster than a speeding train …able to lift tall buildings-nothing fazes him .

  9. The crosscheck could not have been that bad . I see no damage . He must have been wearing his teeth guard for a change .

  10. The canucks have never won or had a first overall pick. Edmondump had 6 in 8 years. Lots of oiler fans get there oil rig experience, fracking rectums.

  11. Oilers fans stop whinin. This is playoff hockey boys. May the best team win. We know the Oilers will be goin home empty handed questioning their whole franchise. Good luck there boys.

  12. I SWEAR all pro athletes in any sports MUST get FRUSTRATED at the Questions they face more than the play of their team in any games
