exactly, you aren't going to win a lot of games in the playoffs scoring only one goal. I don't think Silovs is a problem at all.

The thing is, we can't stop skating....look at Garland feisty and battles non stop. Joshua...petey...they all float around and you can't do that the entire game and wait for the puck to fall on to your stick.

Tickets for viewing party are available now for Friday at Rogers. Depending on what time the game starts at, I'm very interested in going! $15 per ticket + food/drinks is a steal compared to regular ticket prices lol.

It's hilarious, expecting our 3rd string goalie to stand on his head to steal the game and play like a superstar, when the 18 multi million dollar players in front of him can't put the puck in the net. That first period shouldve been like 5-0 for the Canucks.

100 percent. Like what Tocchet said to reporters after game 5, it was lack of execution among the forwards for 5 on 5 and on the powerplay.
Tocchet said that these are the lessons that this team needs to learn very quickly in order to win playoff games.
Something needs to be done to fix the power play. -would also help if the team gets more puck possession in the Preds zone with better work on the boards to get loose pucks. Players who are willing and able to do the dirty work to get loose pucks from the boards to create scoring chances.

While only 2 goals went into the net, several more got by him and missed the net by inches. He wasn't making the stops, he flops around like crazy. He wasn't horrible, but he wasn't good at all aspects of goaltending.
If DeSmith is healthy, there's no way they're playing Silovs again.

This is on the rest of the team to not being able to give him goal support. | Exactly! No need to get defensive about it.

I missed the first period but it looks like the Kings are playing typically tight considering the Coilers only have 5 shots

Puck in goaltender's glove.
Glove completely behind the line, but you can't actually see the puck
Will they award the goal?
Edit: They did

tickets for viewing party are sold out unless you borrow someone's wheelchair
edit: out of curiousity, I checked FB marketplace. some people are actually trying to make money off of these tickets. at least some people are selling at face value or less though.

it's cheap at $15 and the money goes to a good cause. plus, you'll get a playoff type atmosphere so it's kind of a no brainer to attend if you can. should be fun!

Yah it was well, well worth it... you can barely get a meal for $15 in a mall food court nowadays let alone be entertained and watch with other likeminded fans with full light show etc.
Only reason I am not going this Friday is that I can't get off work in time, but I will be working from home thankfully so at least I can put the game on.

Its actually more. $15 gets you in the door. They are hoping you buy beer and food.
