Our PK was actually pretty decent when you think of the number of penalties in a row assessed. The 4 minute double-minor to Hamhuis was a great kill and generated momentum. The PP was horrendous. Has been all season and for the tail end of last season.Todd Bersnoozi wrote: We got some BS calls for sure and the sharkies played better than us. It didn't help that our speciality teams totally sucked, our PP could barely set up and our PK stunk to high heaven.
Yeah. But Vigneault is probably gone now. Thankfully.Todd Bersnoozi wrote: I think I would of played Lou in game #3, and #4 for sure, but it was AVs call. Schneids was ok, but wasn't great; he didn't look 100%. I thought Lou was definitely playing better. I thought the luxury of having 2 good goalies was to play the guy who is hot or playing better. AV failed there.
Yeah, he wasn't very noticeable out there tonight. But no excuses.Todd Bersnoozi wrote: Kes had a monster game #2 (a memorable performance), but I noticed that in game #3 he gets clipped in the head by Marleau early in the game. I wonder if that took the wind out of him (or banged him up a bit) cuz he was pretty average after that.
No excuses. Casual Kev was just that.....too casual at times.Todd Bersnoozi wrote: Bieksa didn't look 100%. It looked like he wasn't going all out and kind of playing hesitent (protecting himself) cuz he didn't want to get hurt. He did look better as the series went on though (ie - game 4).
More excuses. Reffing was shit. The Canucks didn't deserve the series when the puck dropped in Vancouver. The team has been destroyed all year by fast forechecking teams that collapse to the net on defense and pressure hard on the PK. The team never adjusted. No excuses.Todd Bersnoozi wrote: And yeah, the Nucks are down 3-0 in the series and they get a penalty with 5 mins left and in OT. C'mon for crying out loud! Have some mercy. Our PK was so bad that giving them a PP was basically giving them a free goal. Nucks didn't play well for sure, but they got like zero breaks. The series could of easily been tied 2-2, instead we get swept. At least give the Nucks a chance to come back to pro-long the series a bit to make the series more entertaining.
