the Vancouver Canucks lose 8-5 to the Florida Panthers. Elias Pettersson with 2 goals looked great. Quinn hughes and Evander Kane also had strong nights but the Canucks with Jiri Patera making his debut couldn’t hang on against the 2x NHL Stanley Cup Champs to complete the comeback.

Canucks are good. They don’t get shots though that’s the problem Adam’s foot talk to them about shots.
We still don’t have big hog, we’re gonna be alright
Time to split up Marcus Pettersson and Tyler Myers, cause my god they look horrible. 4th string goalie in net and on the 2nd end of a back to back, so I’m not going to get worked up over this loss. Grabbing 3/6 points is not bad for a road trip, especially against good teams. At least EP40 and Hughes are playing insane. Things could be way worse.
The shot totals over and over reflect a playstyle and a pattern of play which is reactive and passive. We dont dictate play enough, we concede far, far too many high danger chances, and the pk is whl level. This is all down to coaching, as logically, down so many peices, why would you play so open? Conceding chance after chance and prime real estate in central high danger areas. Final shots 40-15. That means we concede 2 shots every 3 minutes, and get one shot every 4 minutes. Last night in TB shots were 13-1 lightning after the 1st. The reality is past 2 games, scoring 11 goals on 40 odd shots or whatever it was, is down to luck. Outstanding favorable shot variance in the xg department. If this doesnt happen,, Canucks lose like 8-1 tonight and the video is an entirely different tone. Adam Foote and his comic book nose and bewilderment expression on his 98 iq face is a sentimentality hire.. merely to placate Hughes, in hopes he will stay, and hes cheap and in house as well. Not good enough. Team is constantly unprepared. Fail to prepare, prepare to fail.
Not true. If they had kept Silovs as backup instead of resigning Demko, who is prone to injury, it may have been a different season already. They wouldn't have been put in a position of using the backup goaltender from the Abby Canucks. They would likely have had two uninjured goaltenders to rely on. It also doesn't help that we still have key players that are injured, so we are literally playing NHL hockey with a lot of AHL players. Sadly, it is also affecting the Abby Canucks, who have only won one game on home ice so far this season.
I know the D wasn't great but Patera also looked horrible, hopefully no call ups for him again. Other than that this season is going phenomenally to be the start of a rebuild EP40 performing on both sides with bad deployments, Sherwoods numbers still look great for him, Boes doing decent you could actually get prospects and picks in for all these people now without having to pay someone to take EP.
I know they won't do it, but this is basically an ideal scenario for it especially if you believe Petey won't keep it up
name another team that pulls their AHL goalie up 😂
More like a clown show.
Well, it's nice to see the Canucks score more goals than before. Against the best goalie in the league.
I’m honestly really happy with how they played today. Couldn’t really do any better with what they have. They battled hard and petey looked sick
Ok but if you took Bobrovskis GA in this game and matched the amount of shots Patera faced , the score would have been 14-7 Vancouver…. he let in 1 third of the shots they took on him. Patera let in 17% of the shots he faced. He statistically played better than Bobrovski . I blame the Lack of defense and SOG. Florida isnt exactly a team you can walk all over , even when theyre 6 guys down.
Id like to see which team has the most goals on the least amount of shots on goal.. it has to be Vancouver… this team makes no sense at all lol
What's crazy is that Patera was the noticably better goalie in that game…
They been all over the place from the start of this year do you think part of it could be coaching?
you do realise that we just played back to back cup champions and their starter, with a half an AHL team, our 3rd string, and back end of a back to back schedule .. Right? I think you're being a little harsh on the boys, especially with your comments on the last half of the third. Sure, you can be harsh and have your opinion, but your description had more hope than your video.
Put this game on late. I saw the score and shot count, so I wasn't very interested. Then, after a shot, I hear the name Petera. Who? Wait, EBUG already? Quickly found out what is going on with Demko. We'll, the denial is gone, now. The most predictable setback occurred. See you all again next year, for the annual rolllercoaster of hope and denial!
They couldn't keep silovs. Get that through your head!!!! We would have had to try and send him down and lose him for nothing Do you not get that?
News flash – all Canucks fans take note!! Every team in the league is a rollercoaster. It’s the nature of sports. Some wins, some losses. Play well, play not so well and don’t get the bounces. CTFO. (Chill the F out). Such fragile constitutions. Unrealistic expectations
They hung in there with one of the best teams in the league, and with a rookie goalie on the second game back to back, only losing in the last half dozen minutes. Not bad
Considering Canucks Had AHL Goaltender who faced 40+ Shots ya he gave up 7 but still gave it his all,Then you have Two time Stanley Cup Champion taking only 15 shots and giving up 5 id say I'd say Patera held his own and luckily enough no teams in the west or our division is really dominating right now and Canucks are still in the mix
Mediocrity
Ain’t even mad tbh. They played great imo. 2 goals for EP40 too. We had a goalie playing his first game with us vs the champs. Ya they sucked with making shots but the amount of goals kinda made up for it
The only thing I was really unhappy about: pull that poor kid
Jiri is not the problem. Myers needs a change or long rest. Mancini should be here. Box out net area is needed.
pk is too aggressive. defence is chasing the puck. this reminds me of bruce coached canucks. exciting hockey but not a playoff worthy team.
the refs are pretty interesting: calling a penatly on the 2-2 goal when the teams on a pp, thats nuts
but when sherwood gets head hunted they dont call anything but just fighting
PS. Didnt Kane hit the bar when it was 5-5
