really? i was on edge of my seat watching them shut this game down haha. we've been so loose and sloppy the past month or two, I've been waiting for them to play like this again when holding a lead. had the heart pounding at certain close plays.
man, fucking love it. season sweep against the oilers and basically locked up 1st in the pacific. well played game all around tonight
edit: we outscored Edmonton 21-7 over the course of 4 games

Yeah, that's probably exactly how the LA fans justify their games too.
1-3-1 can also be exciting if they're just trying to hang on to a 1 goal lead and the excitement just comes from whether their D structure can be broken or not.
At various times, the D gave them a bit too much time to just walk in, especially on the PP. That's why I'm convinced if McD was playing, he would have walked in a few times and popped a few in. But none the less, DeSmith played a very solid game. He can be a good goalie with occasional starts, but he can't carry the workload of a starter. The parity of goaltending at the NHL level is too close on game to game basis, but the consistency down the stretch of weeks and months is where elite and backup start to separate.

Agreed. Must signs for me would be Hronek, Joshua, Zadorov. As long as Hronek doesn't price himself out but he's an RFA and Hanifin's contract extension will probably help the Canucks.
the Hanifin contract basically guarantees Hronek will land somewhere between 7.5-8M (as was previously expected anyways). I really hope they sign him for max of 7.5M.
How does the Hanifin contract help the Canucks? 7.35M and NTC for 8 years for a guy who's never topped 48 points?!
Canucks are fucked, Hronek won't take a penny less than 7.5... do you want Hronek at 7.5 until he's 34-35 years old? I don't think so. That guy is going to age like gouda left out on a warm day.
Assuming we win the division (there's still a scenario where we don't), we will play whoever is in the WC1 spot. Right now, it's Nashville, but it's still possible it could be Vegas or LA.

lol, there's still a scenario where we win the conference, and play Vegas or LA in the WC2 spot as well.

I think it helps because the so called experts were saying the number started with an 8 and with this comparable it would mean we can get him for less. He has been fine so far but I'm in the same boat of no thanks even if it was 7.5 heck even 7 I'd be pretty sketchy about it.

Hanafin's take home money is going to be more due to income taxes.
I believe BC taxes are around 9% higher than Nevada.
So at the end of the day, regardless of caphit which is based on before taxes.
Actual net pay will be a factor.
They may be taking a lower caphit, and also earning more net. Win/Win and those teams get an edge.
