He's been throwing his body around and has blocked some shots. Guy looks like he wants to win. He'll get bigger, but he plays with heart regardless.

He’s been one of the best dmen in this series for the Canucks
- Nucker101


He had 1 bad game this playoffs/play-in and we did what we normally do, we crucified him. Lol

Jake Virtanen is down, injured, after being Kronwall hit by Brayden McNabb.
The Vegas bench heckled him as he lay on the ice, awaiting help from the trainer.




I know this is all just gravy but holy (frank) I want this series so badly

They are showing how classless of a team they are. Good team, just not a group of players I could ever cheer for.

I don't know how many times I kept expecting VGK to score on their chances. So you got to wonder if they're now feeling the choke label?

They looked pretty humble after the game.

Canucks are 10-6 post-Covid shutdown. Not a bad record. .625 winning percentage.👍

Benning (frank)ed up plenty but he improved, I still don't have a lot of faith him but he's hit a couple of home runs and that's undeniable.
- belcherbd


This is about as succinct as you could sum up Benning’s reign.

Oh I think it can be done, but it’s going to take someone more intelligent than Jim Benning to figure it out. Toffoli’s been a huge help in the playoffs since coming back but I honestly don’t want them to re-sign him. I think Benning needs enough foresight to give a winger already in the organization, whomever that may be, a shot in the top six. They’ve gotta earn it, but they need opportunity.

Gotta love the couch potato know-it-alls who continually question the intelligence of someone they have never met. Good lord haha

His Twitter is pretty gold:

When Tyler Motte went to dump it in, facing a 1-on-1 situation, a voice from the #VegasBorn
bench bellowed: "He's feeling it" sarcastically.

7 seconds later, Virtanen makes it 1-0.

Vegas' biggest enemy in this series: their own arrogance.

Tiny Drancer has really come into his own since his nhl gig with the Panthers. That said I think one of the players, maybe Pearson summed it up best regarding the chirps.
He basically said that this has always been part of the game, media is just more privy to it.

When a team does it and loses they look like fools, when they do it and they win they are alphas. Anyone else notice that the Reeves is a difference maker conversation has gone away with them losing.

I'm of two minds, the eeyore in me says no, but I've been pretty high on this team all year and called a western conference loss to Dallas when the season was still on so hard to back off.

If Dallas wins we win, if they lose we lose.

Yeah caught that in the post game. That Reeves crosscheck in the numbers might have caused some mobility issues. But winning heals all.

Energy levels new buzz especially on Demko. Game 7 comeback is a good booster.

Got to like how they've come together as a TEAM finding ways to continue defying the odds.

Think the Canucks can get through either team, Dallas would be the better choice. McKinnon is just insane though, I do not want to go up against him. Both team's D and goalie situations are suspect

Vegas is the best team still in the west but Colorado would be a fun matchup with the nucks.

If I'm putting down money it's still on Vegas unfortunately
