I'm happy to see my home team advance. With both goalies playing on their heads today, the game remained 0-0 for most of the game. The only goal of the game came late with only 1:39 left to play in regulation, when Boeser backhands a perfect pass to Suter who buried the puck to the back of the net. In desperation, the Preds pulled their goalie and was playing 6 on 5 to try to tie the game with little time left on the clock. To make matters worse for the Canucks, Lindholm commits a penalty to put the Preds on power play with 34 seconds left in regulation. Now playing 6 on 4, the Canucks scramble to hold onto their 1 goal lead and finished off the Predators 4 games to 2. The Predators never won a home game in this series. And a big kudos and big congratulations to Silovs for his playoff shutout!
Canucks face the Oilers in the next round, going from facing a good defensive team to facing an offensive power house. I don't feel so confident with the matchup against the Oilers, but I do hope my home team prevails in the next round to head back to the western conference final. Go Canucks go!
Šilovs!

He had a great game! I'm hoping Silovs keep it up because we will need him to play great against the Oilers.

Love to see it. Close game too.
It's been awhile since the Canucks had such a good team. At least one Canadian team will be making it to the semi-finals.

Your team put up a good fight. Saros played really well in both games a 5 snd 6. I'm glad our guys were finally able to sneak one past him late in the 3rd in game 6.
Also cool to see the catfish make its return onto the ice in game 6. Reminded me of this commercial.
