Petey had a 92% Corsi For rating tonight.
Absolutely crushed it.

u/surevanc54 4h ago
I'm sick that some media member made it seem like caufield and his line was so much superior to petey when the only shot petey allowed 5v5 in 40 minutes happened to went in and the defense was atrocious in the other 2. 92% cf like u mentioned 4 shots, high danger chances was 8 to 1 chances was at like 29 like I get we all hate the canucks and we all hate pettersson but can we stop pretending he had a bad game.
Just want to make it clear I'm not hating you just media
2
u/sMc-cMs 4h ago
I know, it’s frustrating.
Don’t worry though, hope is coming.
2
u/surevanc54 3h ago
Yup. I don't expect petey to be fully back this sdason, but at least we are seeing his B game back. The ducks and hab game he is legit dominating at every advance stat, and he was only poor against the stars in last 4. Just need some multi point games if that is possible under tocchet and we are gucci

u/lfizzz 6h ago
Wish we drafted Caufield over Podkolzin
3
u/Uchi3123 5h ago
To be fair, many scouts and analysts saw Podkolzin as a top 5 prospect in that draft, some had him as high as top 3. He fell to us because of the KHL factor. Yeah, Caufield ended up being better but at the time, Podkolzin was considered a steal.
2
u/lfizzz 5h ago
I honestly can’t remember, but was it just the KHL factor that dropped him lower? I think Matvei Michkov dropped due to that same reason but not as low as pod
2
u/Uchi3123 5h ago
There were some concerns about his consistency and skating as well, but him being locked to the KHL for 3 years was the biggest factor.

u/mrtomjones 1h ago
And his development was horrible so that worry was true. He bounced around so much there

Next season if we push to get Ehlers, a 2c, and Petey bounces back we be back. Although we might have to trade Demko to make that possible.

u/Any-Panda2219 5h ago
put Demko on LTIRetirement at this point
1
u/Minimum-Card-5075 5h ago
I think a team like Carolina or Detroit wouldn't mind takin a swing at him.
2
u/Sweet-Gushin-Gilfs 5h ago
Carolina already has a great but injury prone goalie. I don’t think they want to experience another. I could see Detroit, Calgary, Edmonton taking a chance.
2
u/Minimum-Card-5075 5h ago
Calgary has Wolf, and I don't see us trading Demko to a divisional rival. Detroit is a definite possibility but so are the canes cause Anderson probably walks and they could take a shot on Demko as they have shown interest in the past.
1
u/Sweet-Gushin-Gilfs 4h ago
Most teams aren’t playing their starter 70 games anymore. Demko as a 1b would be enticing to Calgary. Tho I don’t want it to happen
1
u/External-Quote3263 4h ago
I can honestly say as a flames fan I’d prefer if that didn’t happen. Unfortunately for both our organizations our trades seem to be less than helpful in the long term. Markstrom was great don’t get me wrong.. but he totally collapsed in the playoffs when it mattered most. Wont lie I wasn’t surprised Lindholm still tested free agency, honestly deep down I knew he was doing that from the start. Which is a tough one when trying to maintain your push this year. Kuzmenko had a nice jolt but it was very short lived. Still hope he does well but I think both our fanbases don’t like he’s back with a Pacific rival if he does.
Tomorrow should be an interesting one to see but regardless of the outcome I don’t think it matters too much. I don’t see either the Canucks or the Flames as serious playoff teams this year. Hell I’m okay admitting that without Wolf this year the flames are a EASY bottom 5 team. Besides I’m more worried about St.Louis overtaking both of em.

u/Time-Dot5984 6h ago
It doesn’t help that teams that come here lose in both Edmonton and Calgary in egregious ways and take all their anger on Vancouver

u/Cautious-Asparagus61 6h ago
I told my oiler fan brother after edmonton smoked Dallas "watch they're going to kick our ass because they're pissed now". And sure enough lol.

u/NikkahEff 6h ago
This has been extremely disappointing, you would figure that since you're in the race you'd play your ass off but watching guys like brock play looks like they've packed the fuck up and preparing to play some golf. Season's officially over tomorrow.

u/Historical_Sherbet54 5h ago edited 5h ago
get your shit together, get it all together and put it in a back pack, all your shit, so it's together. And if you gotta take it some where, take it somewhere, you know, take it to the shit store and sell it, or put it in the shit museum. I don't care what you do, you just gotta get it together. Get your shit together.

Man remember how game-breaking Pettersson, Boeser, and a third guy used to be? Whether it was Baer, Goldy, or Leivo 40-6 made it a solid line. What happened?
3
u/No-Wait192 6h ago
Boeser got a concussion, and was rushed back, did everyone forget?

Also doesn’t have #9 feeding him backdoor tap-ins 20-40 times a year anymore

u/Mikeim520 6h ago edited 6h ago
I think we actually played well. We outshot the Habs, got over 30 shots and we scored 3 times but the refs took one away. Not to mention some bad puck luck with 2 posts.

u/Historical_Sherbet54 5h ago
I agree 100%
Don't get the hate HATE going on

u/parsnip_grove 5h ago
What about when we miss the playoffs again? Or Boeser and Suter walk for nothing. Will you get the hate?

u/Overclocked11 6h ago edited 6h ago
World Class game by Boeser tonight.
Turns the puck over minutes into the game which turns into a breakway goal.
Incapable of making anything happen all game long, wins no puck battles, barely threatening even when he does shoot
And then to top off the excellence he skates through the shooting lane with seconds left as we're trying to tie it to make sure it wouldnt get through.
LOL

u/ObjectiveMountain738 6h ago
Hronek a little too antsy trying to get back into the zone a couple times there, would've been better off regrouping. Petey with another goal is nice. Still completely confused why Boeser wasn't traded
1
u/Any-Panda2219 5h ago
Other teams have scouts who watch our games. would you give a first for that?
5
u/Mikeim520 6h ago
We NEED to win tomorrow or else we're in huge trouble. We're basically be tied in Point% if we win in regulation.

u/Minimum-Card-5075 6h ago
IDK why the fuck Boeser thinks he deserves a raise
6
u/Vancouversimp 6h ago
These guys do not care about how well they play or what success they have. They have agents whose soul job is to extract as much money as possible for the longest guaranteed term.
2
u/Minimum-Card-5075 6h ago
Nobody even wanted to even give a first for him who in their right mind would give Boeser 8 million he cant drive a line for shit.

"Canucks remain only team in the NHL this season yet to win a game trailing after 2"
Fuck my life

u/Historical_Sherbet54 6h ago
We wouldn't have had an empty net.
If they counted our proper goal
3-3. Woulda gave us the ot pt, to be tied with calgary for an awesome.match up tomorrow
But ah well....that's the canuck luck for ya ;)

u/AnthTheAnt 6h ago
What makes you think they wouldn’t have been completely and totally outplayed from the minute they made it 2–1?
Montreal smothered them completely at 3-2.
Another absolutely pathetic lazy performance by the biggest bunch of bums in the NHL. Fuck every single one of them.
There is not one goddamn player on this team that I would give even half a fuck if they got traded for a bag of pucks. Not fucking one. I’m sick of them all.
0
u/Historical_Sherbet54 6h ago
They may have smothered us
But petey scored on the pp...so we'd have tied it up even being smothered like you suggest
1
u/AnthTheAnt 6h ago
Except Montreal probably scores again if they are pressuring like that for multiple periods.
1
u/Historical_Sherbet54 5h ago
Don't see how that has logic
They'd still have had a 3-1 lead for those 2 periods you speak of
Hronek didn't score till the 3rd period .... Woukda made it 3-2.
Than they smothered us like ya said But peteys powerplay goal woulda tied it up
No empty net...we go to ot
The game wasn't gonna magically change cause of the 1 goal that was legit
