Let's get out of here!

Watched hockey for nearly half a century. Never seen anything like that disallowed goal. Funny thing was I was watching Silovs that whole time wondering why he's slow to get set and if it might cost us. Sure enough the puck goes right in off the draw. Just like I foresaw in my mind. Then to get that called off. Bizarro!!


Outshot badly but I didn't think it was a lopsided game by any means. CLT didn't look all that impressive to me and got lucky from a shaky start by Silovs. Perhaps from rust, but unless they have another gear I believe we got a shot at this. Needed the split for sure and got it. Now don't be content, grab the stranglehold on Sunday.

Yeah, that was bizarro world, alright. I think they made the fair call, though, even if it was off the books. Dropping the puck with the goalie drinking water is something I don't think I have ever seen.

He notched the OT winner last game on one of his 'patented' (lolol) solo efforts and thereby put himself back in people's good graces, but I'm afraid the book is closed on him by now. He just doesn't think well enough to play pro hockey at this level. When carries the puck into the offensive zone on a line rush, he never, ever passes it. He tries to skate through the entire defending team and score a spectacular goal like he did Wednesday night. It works three times a year but the rest of the time you're pulling out your hair. Zero awareness, very, very low IQ. Selfish, emotional, prone to taking infuriatingly dumb penalties. Doesn't like to come off the ice. This elementary stuff just cannot be coached out of him. At the same time, he has made some limited strides under Manny this year, and just maybe, he can get it to where he can continue playing pro hockey after his contract is up next season. I would say he's a poor man's Belarussian Jake Virtanen, but he's such a nice kid off the ice that I don't want to hang that label on him :lol:
Klim Reaper pissed Megs closed the door on him?

He was at fault for that period ending last second goal when he didn’t get it in deep and for some weird reason wanted a line change. He needs to be more dependable, but scoring two double OT goals is really clutch. The Canucks really could use that.

Not sure what was stranger. Refs calling it off (balsy!), or just how that whole thing played out. Watching Silovs facing the other way just as the puck's about to drop. I seriously visualized it just before it played out exactly the way it did. Couldn't believe it actually happened, and was pissed they could let one get away on that kind of an error. Almost turned it off right then and there just when I heard Astle say they might waive it off. Shocked they actually did. Now, question I have is was it the right call? I can usually answer any hockey questions, but this one I honestly don't know. Still baffled.

Agree on Klimo. Whenever I watch him the feeling I get is I hope this guy never makes the bigs because he just looks like one of those big dumb guys who'll frustrate the shit out of me with inconsistency and obvious lack of any kind of hockey sense. That's ok, he was never on my radar anyway, so a few good plays once in awhile down in the A is good enough for me.
