From all *reasonable* Canucks fans, we congratulate the @EdmontonOilers on a hard fought series win. Bring the cup home to Canada ffs. LFG!
After 2: Oilers are scoring Canuck-like goals. Deflections and bounces. Now Canucks need Canuck-like luck to make this something.
Your Molson 3 Stars of the 1st Period...
3rd Star: Arturs Silovs
2nd Star: Arturs Silovs
1st Star: Arturs Silovs
Obvious no goal, but why on earth is Silovs jumping!?
Not only is that bad goaltending, but you could get called for charging.
Kane has mastered the legal slew foot bodycheck. Subtle, effective, legal (I'm told). He's overtaken Marchand. Not an easy feet. Or is it feat? Either way, impressive.
At least put Pettersson on the PP to get him playing with some skilled linemates. Get him some looks ffs.
Miller's been a workhorse all playoffs. Finally, tonight, it looked like he was a bit out of gas.
Time for some other forward(s) to elevate.

Refs don't seem sure what a penalty is or isn't. Cross checks to necks not called yet everyday ones are. Calls in Van's favour, definitely. But I laughed at this sequence....
Was mid rant with a buddy on how I've never seen a more avoidable own goal in my life, when my wife said I should take the conversation outside. I did. Then I saw this. First time in my life seeing Aurora Borealis from Lower Mainland of BC.
Odd game through 2 periods. Canucks down 4-2 but could easily - and maybe should be - up the same. This is why they play 3 periods...and 7 games...so the breaks "ideally" even out.
Since the NFL changed their overtime rule back in 2012, 164 games have gone to overtime. The team that won the overtime coin toss went on to win 52% of the time. Surprisingly even. 1
