But, but the intangibles!

They are immeasurable.


How many freaking guys do they need to be useless players but good in the room?

Thanks Carol.

I know it's unlikely but... for some reason this team has me thinking we'll see a game 7.

Took us in 7 before it started. Optimistic I was but never give up.

No opinions.

Just love.

I have a dream......that the Canucks can do this.

I want to believe they can win Game 6 but I think Vegas will turn it up a notch next game. Still proud of these guys and looking forward to the future!

Cannot see VGK playing any better cuz it’s pretty good as usual. I see more PP’s coming our way if we cone out skating. 60mins of that & we win 4-3.

Only speak the truth, Loadster has probably taken out a hit on me, but save the 6 million

Naw man, you're entitled to your opinion. Even if it's wrong.

After last year I thought Vegas would be tougher (mentally), but I feel like now if the Canucks can manage to grind out a win in game 6 they’ll implode. It’s the social media outbursts, chicken noises, flopping about that makes me think it won’t take much to unhinge them.

Yeah Canucks have been such a pleasant surprise. We have beat Vegas 3 of the last 6 meetings. We are getting a lot closer than expected.

Agreed. Don’t think Vegas can play much better than they have already, but the Canucks sure can.

One of the 10 best scenes in a comedy ever. Another favorite of mine from that movie was when he was 10 feet away and nailed her in the face with a snowball.

Jake has difficulty stringing 2 good shifts together at times let alone 2 good games. I hope our plan doesn't involve relying too much on his "efforts".

I don't think the team has planned to rely on his "efforts" at any point during these playoffs. Not when he started in the stands, not when he's getting 12 minutes a night.

I think they're going to need contributions from many skaters over the next 2 nights, possibly both goalies as well. That includes Jake. I'd rather have him in for one effective game than two ineffective ones.

You're going to have to lower some minutes for your top 6 with 2 elimination games, same as your top 4 D.

You'll need meaningful contributions from role players each game even if they aren't the same depth guys.
