A lot of turnover but they can get better I still think hand the net over to silovs trade demko while his value is high trade hronek the players we could get could be great just a thought because demko gets hurt a lot
'My friend of misery'

lol what if Skinner played above average? Sweep🧹
Ya they were right there… just like all the chances they have had to win the cup over the years but they didn’t want it hard enough
Canucks fan here, did they not show up, or did they just get outplayed??
“The Vancouver Canucks were right there” that’s a Maple Leafs mindset and a big 🚩. The Canucks were NOT right there. Keep in mind that this is the Oilers FOURTH consecutive playoff run, they’ve already made the mistakes they’ve needed to in their past playoff appearances and they’ve clearly learned from it. The Canucks were already beat up after Round 1. Do I think they could have beat the Oilers if they showed up in Game 6 & 7, yes absolutely!!! Do I think they would have made it all the way to the finals or won the cup this year, truthfully, no. However, I am very optimistic for next season and have full faith that they WILL be back in the playoffs!!
The oilers outplayed the nucks pretty much every game. Having demko wouldbt have changed the fate of the nucks. And cant say they would do what the oilers have.. So playing the what if game while downplaying what the oilers have done is kinda ignorant
what if canucks lost game 4 against predators, they probably did not even pass 1st round, lol
A whole lot of ifs that are meaningless cause the canucks lost so why bother asking all these what if's. the canucks lost end of story get over it already
Its hard to imagine them going farther when almost all of there top players productivity was lackin.
The 7:35 mark features the start of discussion over trades the Canucks supposedly should've made, including for winger Tyler Toffoli. Toffoli's performance with the Winnipeg Jets' team to which he was traded from the Devils was mixed, with:
– 11 points (7 goals) over 18 regular-season games and a +9
– 2 points (both goals) over 5 playoff games and a -2
It's tempting to say also the Canucks should've shown up more in games 6 and 7 of the Oilers-Canucks 2024 playoff series although during that series all games but game 6 (5–1 Oilers' win) were decided by 1 goal, with the Canucks' having gone 3–3 under such circumstances. Vs the Preds the Nucks had gone 3–1, leading to a total record of 6–4.
The Jets, during their last 2 playoff series (10 games), have played 2 games decided by 1 goal: a 2OT loss to the Golden Knights of game 3 of that 2023 conference quarterfinal (CQF) and a 7–6 regulation win of game 1 of the April Avs-Jets CQF. The Canucks, over their past 13 playoff games, have played just 3 decided by 2 or more goals, with a 1–2 record in such games. The Jets have played 8, with a putrid 1–7 record in such games.
The Canucks this postseason, when having:
– scored 2 or fewer goals, went 2–5
– allowed at least:
— 3 goals, went 3–5
— 4 goals, went 1–3
The Jets, when having, following the 2021–22 season when they hadn't qualified for playoff action:
– scored under 3 goals, went 0–6
– allowed at least 3 goals (via having allowed at least 4 goals in each relevant game), went 1–8
So many games the Canucks played this postseason were close (10 of 13) because their defence, in enough of them, was good enough to win games. The Jets' defence has been nothing short of disastrous following game 1 of the 2023 Jets-Golden Knights series.
Keep crying
And I wonder what if Roloson didn’t get hurt in 2006 and the Oilers would’ve beaten Hurricanes and claim their 6th Stanley Cup in franchise history!
give the oilers they’re flowers and move on, quit whining, nucs fans don’t know how to act. Oilers showed up and beat you guys, they beat the dallas after yall swore we’d get swept, Oilers deserve everything they’ve achieved
It’s understandable to feel that way. That’s how we felt last year about losing to Vegas. Especially after beating Dallas this year. Then you have a Panthers team running on fumes in the final.
Now this year we’ll have to see, but Florida looks stacked and they have the finals experience and aren’t likely going to let it slip away again.
The canucks would have been buried by Dallas
Vancouver fans are losers. All they talk about are their what ifs. Oilers fans don’t talk this much about their triumphs. To Canuckleheads losing with an excuse is as close as they get to a victory.
“a lot of annoying conversation” is right… so many unrealistic “what ifs?”.
The Vancouver Canucks did NOT lose to themselves… the Oilers allowed Vancouver to stick around for 7.
I get it. These thought exercises help soften the blow. Hell, I’m still replaying the Stanley Cup final of 2006. Rollie the goalie probably wins the cup.
Is this salty? Sure. But it’s not meant to complain. It’s just something to think about to fill in that Stanley Cup sized hole in my soul.
I agree We were right there. We were equipped to win this year and started off great up 3-2. But imagine if all the Ian Cole bounces didn’t happen or all the soft calls against the Canucks along with non calls. We definitely could’ve won. We gave Edmonton 7 games because we played physical in which Dallas or La didn’t do. You will see how Florida plays Edmonton and see how the Canucks should’ve approached Edmonton. Every team is playin down to oilers level and lettin them dictate play. Watching panthers with open ice hits against the rangers was a breath of fresh air in these playoffs and can’t wait to see them execute a physical style against Edmonton.
It's not that the Canucks didn't show up, they ran out of gas.
I think Edmonton is a team they can beat, they've done it plenty before. Whether they could beat Dallas, I don't know. Vancouver has never been bounced in the third round. If they win the second, they go to the Finals.
shoulda coulda woulda
Oiler fan watching this smiling. I will say tho you are probably not wrong BUT there is NEVER a world where you are winning that series. You guys show up for game 6-7 and we show up for 1 & 3
same feeling like losing both game 6 and 7 in 2011 final
