reffing hasn't helped but the 5v5 difference is massive. markstrom is why this game isn't a blowout.
This.
I knew when myers went down, the lack of depth in the back end would cost the Canucks. I didn't think it would be this bad though, now a lot of people should realize how critical Tyler Minors is.
It's tough for the Canucks to play when they spend more time in their own zone to try win puck battles, cuz by the time the Canucks get it, they're gassed and go off on a change for fresh legs only for them to lose battles again.
Markstrom keeping the Canucks in game, I swear if someone keeps track of high danger chance saves, markstrom would be leading tenfold in this playoffs among any other goalies lol I think I counted at least 10 by the end of 2nd period.
Canucks gotta do what they did in game 1 and 2, continue to produce on the powerplay, otherwise there's no winning
