[nuckster]

Feels so very good to be wrong. I thought the Wild was going to take it. Not sure, but the deep seated satisfaction associated with tonight's win, is as good as.... ..yeah, it's 'that' good!

"It's an awesome feeling and I'm happy for all the boys. It just shows how hard we worked all year, we were down, but we made some big time plays by some big time guys." - Tanev
----------------
“It's good to win, it's fun to win. I was shooting for Millsy's stick and he missed it. I don't know if that fooled the goalie or not but it went in.” - Tanev on the OT goal
---------------
“He's impressive. He's going to be the best defenseman in the league -if he's not there next year he'll be there soon. We're happy he's on our team.“ - Tanev on Hughes
----------------
“We talked after the second period. Myers spoke up after the second period and he said this is playoff hockey, we're down a goal and have to battle back in the third.“ - Tanev on getting the win

“A lot went through my mind. Pearson made a heck of a pass. Stalock had my number the whole series so it was nice to see it finally go in.” - Horvat on the tying goal...
-----------------
“Marky doesn't give himself enough credit. He's been a brick wall all season and we wouldn't be where we are right now without him. I couldn't be more proud of our guys. Our young guys stepping up in their first series. From goaltending all the way up we found a way to win.” - Horvat
-----------------
“He's been great for us. He's been there and won before, he stepped up again tonight. He won faceoffs and killed penalties all night, same with Beagle. They were great.“ - Horvat on Sutter’s game

“We're happy to finish this in 4 instead of going to 5 with Minnesota having some momentum. We've got a long ways to go still, we'll enjoy this win but then it's time to go back to work.” - Markstrom

“I think it's nice that he scored. He doesn't get a lot of credit for that part of his game. He's been in Vancouver for some tough times and he's a big part of where we want to go.“ - Green on Tanev’s goal
----------------
“He had a good camp so he was our best option. He played heavier than we thought and made good passes. I'm happy for him, he's been through a lot. His first game ending like this is extra special for him.“ - Green on Juolevi
----------------
“This is a group that learns quickly. Coaching this group is enjoyable, they listen, they buy in as a group - that's what you want from a team. Right before OT we talked about our game and what we do well - that's exactly how we scored.“ - Green
----------------
“He's had such a good season, he didn't have his best night. We laughed about it after the game. I actually told him post-game it's about time the team put him on their back.” - Green on Markstrom
----------------
“I'm happy for him. He's always been a guy that always does what's best for the team. He had a hell of a series. I thought tonight was by far his best game, we shortened the bench when we were down and he played a lot. He had a great all around game.” - Green on Sutter

“I don't think you can put a price on it. he does a lot of things in the d-zone that I can't do. Chris is the heart and soul of the team, it's nice to see him get the goal. He's helped me a lot both on and off the ice.“ - Hughes on Tanev's impact in his development
-----------------
“I think it means everything. I take a lot of pride in that. I think we got a really solid d-core and a lot of guys who can play those minutes. I think I played a bit more because we were trailing.“ - Hughes on what more ice time means to him

Tying up Gm4 at 4 late in the 3rd period of tonight's 5-4 win in overtime, Bo Horvat's 1G-2A performance makes him the 1st Canucks
player to record at least 3 points in a series clinching game since Pavel Bure in Gm7 of VAN's 1994 Western Conf. Quarter-Final defeat of the Flames
10:54 PM · Aug 7, 2020
------------------------------------
Giving the Canucks a 5-4 overtime win to cap their QR vs MIN in 4 gms, Chris Tanev ties for the 2nd fastest OT winner in playoff history (0:11). He also ties for the fastest to clinch a series, as the NYI's J.P. Parise also did so in Gm3 of his team's 1975 Prel. Round win vs NYR

Thats an interesting stat on Bo. Talk about the captain stepping up and being clutch in a series clinching game. And what can you say Hughes that hasn't already been said. Too bad I missed the game.

[Per]

Even though it’s nerve racking for a fan, I like the way they won this game.
Being behind, 1-0, 3-1 and 4-3 and each time coming back to tie the score and then win in overtime - this builds

They will remember this in futire games when they fall behind.

Never quit. Never

It’s not over till the fat lady sings.

[Cousin Strawberry]

Fucking Benning. We have no first round pick this year!

[Chef Boi RD]

Fucking Benning. We have no first round pick this year!

The pick will end up being 16th 17th overall. Whoever they end up picking there will be no match for JT Miller. Might even never play a game in the NHL, not unheard of when you look at the historical percentages of NHL draft picks panning out. The Miller trade could virtually go down as one of the top 5 trades in Canuck history.

Speaking of trades how good were the:

Motte for Vanek
Pearson for Gudbranson

Trades?

Mustn’t forget about Leivo for Carcone
