Mvp
Right now I have Markstrom, MacKinnon, or surprisingly Pavelski winning the Conn Smythe. Great game by the Canucks tonight.

After the first game there was questions asked and of course the mocking started but the only reply I had was remember Messier....Bo will show up and lead.....well that's what happened....oh and we have a top 5 tendy too....

They played a complete game last night, everyone was on the same page, they can't let up or LV will bury them, I hope they keep it up, Canada's last hope

If they can get past Vegas it will be a real confidence boost!

I now see why Markstrom might walk on free agency. I wish the Oilers had that problem

He was their MVP this year. The cap strapped Canucks might not have a choice but to let him walk.
Can’t believe they survived the onslaught last night.

Markstrom is the Canucks franchise tendy wont leave, he is exhausted playing behind the Canucks especially against the relentless Knights....good move by coach...mentally tired, physically tired will lead to bad injuries and Markstrom is too valuable to be exposed to this....Canucks better get more intense but not on an individual level but as a group seen too many plays last night were there was not puck support due to too much individual effort of beating two or three players and the Knights would double up and come up with the puck....time will tell....

I'm a 44 year old life-long Canucks fan who's been through all the highs and lows. Definitely excited about the core group of this young team. I doubt they get past Vegas but its been a great learning experience for these guys regardless. Another year or two and they could end up being very tough for any team to handle.

Sooo . . . just guessing here, you're sayin' this is just another 're-build' year for the chronic underachievers ?
It's kinda' like standing in line to see Santa every year, and just when it's your turn, the old fake buggers off to feed the reindeer . . . .

Can't believe people are still watching hockey. The moment the NHL decided to stand in Solidarity with a convicted rapist and wife beater and throw Law Enforcement under the bus sealed the deal for me.

I'm a huge Flames fan and historically haven't like the Canucks since around '04 - but this team I can get behind! They play like how I wish Calgary did. Great to see & I hope they can knock the Knights out.

Ya he did look tired for sure. Game 7 on a back to back. Brutal, NHL! This stinks for both teams.

Yep, I hope the kid got some rest. We're going to likely need him to be just as good tonight to get the win.
Hopefully the powerplay is clicking and we can get an early lead. Gonna be exciting one way or the other.

They did well to get to game 7, but they came up a dud tonight.
Even scoreless til 54 minute mark, Nucks were second best, it should have been 4 or 5 - 0 into the 3rd.
Great goaltending for sure.
And I had Aves over Dallas, oh well.
Isles and Philly now.

Dam eh....my 1B team beat my 1A team.....now I cheer for Vegas.....I got two teams is what I am saying...a yanky team and a Canadian team....just too bad they had to meet early as apposed to a stanly cup final.... 
Good healthy run and Vancouver got a solid character look at thier goaltenders too....

Demko was great last night, but the rest didn’t put up enough shots. Had some great chances thou. It was a good run. Nobody expected them to get past Minny.
