If you guys can get to a viewing party at Rogers, it's unreal.
For $20, the experience you get is unrivaled. Even though we lost, it was one of the better experiences I've had.

Alvin having serious buyer's remorse.

The bottom line is, you're not a cup contending team with only 14 shots on goal after two periods in a game 4 where you can take a 3-1 lead in the series. The late comebacks are awesome, but at some point, you're SOL like tonight. |
Tocchet mentioned “six or seven passengers tonight” in game 4. The coach said that you cannot win with just twelve guys playing.
Yes, he also said that Petey “has to get going”.
Tocchet is demanding consistent effort from all players.
Old school coach who does not sugar coat it when it comes to comments about his team’s performance.
Definitely a lack of consistent effort from all players in game 4.
Tocchet also mentioned that Garland shows consistent effort every game in the regular season and playoffs. Said that Garland does not give up on plays. He gives the team “juice”.
Coach said that maybe if the other guys paid attention to Garland’s play, they would definitely play with much more consistent effort.
Game 5 is a MUST WIN game for our Canucks. They gotta win at home on Thursday.
Tocchet also mentioned that he will talk to Adam Foote about putting new d men in the game. Possible lineup changes?
Maybe Cole will finally not be playing a game?

Mikeheyev is like a mosquito out there.
Cole is not a bad dman, we wouldn't have beat Nashville without him... but I think they need to realize his limitations. He can play against Nashville and be very effective... but against Edmonton his footspeed and age are being exposed bigtime, the pace of the game is above where he's capable of playing. I'd be okay with him coming out in this series and having himself a rest and someone more slippery going in. Heck I wouldn't even mind seeing Wolanin again. I think we have enough guys who are hammering bodies out there especially with Soucy back next game.

Mikheyev is useless! He does not go hard to the net. He puts no weight on his shot. -misses the net half the time that he attempts a shot on net.
Soft player who doesn't go hard for the puck on the boards.
A complete floater.

I don't know if it was just some weird effect of watching the game on the curved jumbotron last night at the watch party, but it looked like for at least the first 2 periods or so that everyone on the Canucks was firing piss missiles I'd expect from a 10 year old, not a NHL player.

-best quotes from Tocchet's post game press conference after game 4:
“It's a will to get the puck,” Tocchet said. “It's not Xs and Os; it's a will. There's times there, we have some guys — you know the puck, where the puck is going to go — you've just got to get there before the other guy. And I think we're pausing. Some guys are playing pause hockey. And you can't win if you have five or six passengers. Or seven. There was at least a half dozen, just, passengers tonight. Quite frankly, that's what it was. But saying that, that's playoff hockey (and) the next game is a new game. So some of those guys can be a hero for us. So they’ve got to step it up.”
I have some doubt about the heart and desire of some of the players. Is there a will to win games and to show consistent effort, in every shift and every game?
Petey and Mikheyev for example.
The sacrificial plays of the players on the ice in the last seconds of game 6 vs. Preds is what Tocchet is talking about. Diving in front of shots to try block the puck. Myers sacrificing his balls to block a shot in game 6 vs. Nashville.
Does this team have enough will and heart to fight for loose pucks at the boards to make a play to generate scoring chances and sustained pressure in the Oilers zone? The Canucks really need more zone play in the Oilers zone whether it is 5 on 5 play or on a power play.

The crazy part for me is that the concourse and hallways were empty. usually on a regular season canucks game, the concourse and hallways are packed with people. Everyone was in their seat waiting for the game.
My buddy has season tickets and he said the viewing party's crowd is significantly louder than home playoff games.

We ended up grabbing our towels from our seats at 6:30, then proceeded to the bars to grab drinks.
Great atmosphere, it was neat seeing so many families with their kids.
Quite a few hotties too.
The crowd was loud as hell, loved seeing that Canadian flag passed throughout the stands during the national anthem too.
Great experience even in the loss, I recommend anyone going.

I don’t know what the answer is when you can consistently sell out at top price, especially in a place like Vancouver where no one cares about anything but the Canucks.
The corporate support is really what props up professional sports teams these days. That’s why there’s so much talk about Winnipeg potentially leaving once again because they have zero head offices there. If you can’t get top dollar it’s hard to prove your worth to the league. Which is unfortunately at the detriment to the average fan/kids and families
Although, I will say, this perception that the ticket prices are so out to lunch isn’t really based in reality. Even in the most popular times you can get a pair of upper bowl tickets for under $300 or less
