Nurse has been a tire fire against the Avs speed. This is probably the high water mark for a couple of years for them.

I like Nurse he's got grit but he needs to pick his D game up for the $ he's getting paid.

After what I've seen so far VAN is still a good 3 years away from being able to compete in the playoffs.
- VanHockeyGuy

3 years? Vancouver will never be a contender. All we can hope for is a more entertaining team

Mike Smith and Koskinen are both garbage, you could see the disgust on McDavid’s face when Smith let that third goal in. My God. What an absolute garbage goal.

Draisaitl is really hurting, they are done, hopefully the Avs sweep them so they can rest for the Rangers

All true.

Yet people want to keep JTM because they think the Canucks can compete in the West

Av's will take a bit of a step back...our time is coming...

They won’t make the conference finals again for a while.

With a better goalie next season and few tweaks they are a threat to get there for a few years at least.

Maybe not next year but I do expect PO's. 2024 think we will see a big jump unless this current MNGT group fucks it all up. Keep Miller for next season under Boudreau see where to goes. The draft, summer moves isn't going to get us this huge haul for Miller that folks are expecting. Can get the same at next seasons TDL if need be. We first have to see what this club can do with a full year with Boudreau.

He's clearly playing hurt like Drai...but still needs to pull his head out of his ass out there. Some major brain fucks.

Expecting a huge year from Brock next season. A few tweaks here/there would should be good for a deep run 2023/24 season. RHD and a 3LC/4LC not sure Richardson and D!ckinson are the guys but one never knows. Sure wish Motte would have stayed put.

One or two big name players will be moved this offseason to address other needs. It may well be someone like Boeser or?

JR is a "builder" no way he leaves Benning's team intact.

He has no backup defensively. Avs are deep. Kadri got hurt and the lines didn't suffer because of the amount of skill they have to shift around. Both the Oil and Canucks are a long ways away from having this sort of depth for a playoff run.

“my favourite thing about Mike Smith is how he always looks around angrily after a goal as if he was prevented from making the save by a vengeful spirit only he can see”


So true…

But yet here the Oilers are in the Conference finals...go figure lol. Canucks time will come. Just hoping this new MNGT group does the right things and doesn't set the club back another 5-10 years. Folks shouldn't expect what Rutherford did in PIT to happen here.

The Canucks were one game away from the Conference Finals, so that must mean they've been right on that edge for the past few years ya?

Always good for a laugh when some of the fanbase gets all giddy when the team(goalie) plays well for a 25-35 game and the team is going to be great, the following season.
