Was not aware of that stat lol!

Denscity · #**2503** Posted **Apr 21, 2021, 4:00 AM**

Toronto can't beat Vancouver anymore.
4 losses in a row now against the Canucks.

Toronto's goalies can't beat Vancouver anymore. Something like an .830 save percentage over the last 4 games.

North division playoffs are likely just going to come down to goaltending. Campbell is streaky and Rittich is not going to cut it against the Jets if Hellebyuck does what we know he can do.

Smith will determine if the Oilers win the Cup or not, period.

logan5 · #**2506** Posted **Apr 21, 2021, 4:42 PM**

McDavid is just too overpowering at this point. Oilers will win the cup. They could have Dave Rittich in net and they would still win.

I like your confidence...but as we all know...the entire team has got to consistently bring their A game.

Toronto first 2 losses to the Canucks didn't involve bad goaltending.
And when we lost to Toronto it was our poor goaltending that was part to blame.

And with that 69th lifetime victory on 4/20, the Canucks scored 6/9 goals, there were 69 total shots, and the Canucks scored 4 goals in the last 20 minutes.

Denscity · #**2510** Posted **Apr 21, 2021, 11:57 PM**

Ha really? Sounds like the Sedins' last game.

Coldrsx · #**2511** Posted **Apr 22, 2021, 4:30 AM**

Could we?... prob too little too late... but 4-3 now.

Coldrsx · #**2512** Posted **Apr 22, 2021, 4:33 AM**

Nope.

thenoflyzone · #**2513** Posted **Apr 22, 2021, 5:45 AM**

Yup on your nope.....

Glad its a regulation win too. Number of regulation wins might come in handy if ever Vancouver decides to mount a comeback. We have them beat in that front. That being said, the chances of a Vancouver comeback are slim. They’re most likely gonna pass Calgary when it’s all said and done, but that’s about it.

Denscity · #**2514** Posted **Apr 25, 2021, 1:44 AM**

Thank you Calgary.

Denscity · #**2515** Posted **Apr 25, 2021, 5:09 AM**

Vancouver wins. The race for the final playoff spot tightened up tonight.

Coldrsx · #**2516** Posted **Apr 25, 2021, 1:25 PM**

Grabbing my bag of popcorn.

What a storyline that would be in the Canucks snuck in and took Toronto.

Yes and you guys took out the Jets the one team we have trouble with.
And then we add Petterson.

Elias Pettersson 'doubtful' to return to Canucks this season: Report

Denscity · #**2519** Posted **Apr 25, 2021, 5:27 PM**

Yup I heard that report. But doubtful doesn't mean impossible and that may mean just the regular season.

You mean there are Canucks games to be played beyond the regular season?
