It's hard to believe this Panthers team won back-to-back cups.

I know they're missing Barkov and Tkachuk has been out most of the year, but how do you leave guys all alone in front of your net that many times?

Just enjoying the game. Florida is depleted and look tired out there, so take the W where you can.

Good to see the kids look better out there. Willander is looking solid this game.
Love the Sport. Love the Team.

They looked bad, for sure. They've also played a lot of hockey the last 2 years. But so many breakdowns....

What did Bigfoot make documentaries about?

Yeah, bad goaltending, bad discipline, bad special teams...

We need to get back on the tank and start losing some more.

It's getting a bit uncomfortable with 15 games left and of course, these fucking guys with the help of the HGs are going to go on some ridiculous run.

Sometimes it’s those bounces that help get the woe is me monkey off your back.

Looks less than stellar tho when you score 2 goals and go minus-1 on the night. Fortunately plus/minus is a meaningless stat.

Only caught the highlights…..being on Thailand time makes it tricky (getting an idea of how Per lives out his fandom)

Florida sucking certainly helped the Canucks cause. Bobrovsky hasn’t been good all year, and his age is a factor…..he will be 38 in September. Likely this is a natural decline of an aging goaltender playing behind a slumping team.

Boeser and Rossi appear to be finding some chemistry. Sorta wish Brock was a couple years younger as they could be an effective 2nd line later in the rebuild.

Boeser also putting some of his underrated playmaking on display in this one.

Both of Rossi’s goals and DOC’s were from right in front, so going to the areas that need to be gotten to, but Florida was just out to lunch on their net front defense.

D-Pete looked very much the player Topper says he is on that first Florida goal.

I have no fear of the Canucks going on any sort of standings altering run. Lankinen looked rough on both goals and all season he has been over-committing and very jerky in his movement.

Looks like Rossi has found some mojo with Boeser. And vice versa. Could be 2/3 of a decent line next year.

I really feel bad for Lekkerimaki. This would be a great opportunity for him. And for us to see what we have.

The more I see the more confused I get by whom we should select in the draft. We need top six scoring but we also need to keep stockpiling Dmen.

Kinda ok game.
The only HW the Canucks need
