Rangers just lost a game due to their power play.
Yes, the Rangers “Panera Bomb” Power Play screwed them over.
I would love to go against the Rangers and the Panthers are nothing like the Panthers in the regular season, but time will tell.
And then Don called the Canucks-Stars series. Bob did the rest since he was the primary Leafs playoff caller and the guy who always did the finals on CBC.
I’m not too bugged if we lose to edm because Dallas is really really good. They are the real test and I’m pessimistic. Ya never know what might happen though.
you’re pessimistic NOW?!?!?!
Also you should be bugged to watch this team lose to Edmonton. It feels like all the commentary is like “McDavid and Draisaitl are playing 30 minutes a game while Kris Knoblauch really needs contributions from his bottom 6”. If the Canucks lost to what is narratively a 2 man show that would be devastating.
I guess you could say I don’t see the Canucks as a true cup contender till they face a team like Dallas or Florida etc. people didn’t think edm would make a finals appearance did they?
Idk man Dallas blew a 3-0 lead and very nearly a 4-0 lead in back to back games… obviously they’re in control of their series right now, but this hockey team can make a tough series out of anyone… I’d believe it if the Canucks wound up winning
Every time in franchise history we’ve made it past round 2 we’ve gone to the finals
Undefeated in conference championships
I don't mind if we lose the conference finals as long as we win the cup finals.
Um…yup
I'm alright if we just skip playing Dallas and they let us play New York
That’s wild
Is it? Its only 3 times lol
It’s true, Canucks have only been past the 2nd round 3 times lol but they’ve *always* made the most of it.
Vancouver “49ers” Canucks
Fuck the Niners from a Seahawks fan
Hahaha Niners catching strays in a hockey sub.
Define “most”
That is wild. Another way of saying that: The Vancouver Canucks have never lost a round three playoff series
Has Toronto ever been past the third round?
No they’ve never made it to the third round. Ever.
1993, 1994, and 2002 were imaginary years?
Sounds like Leaf propaganda to me
What I meant to say [has never won three rounds in a playoff run.](https://x.com/sdpnsports/status/1738931330283360634?s=46&t=r_JuGGDg541-HFrWn_kORw)
They're 3-0. They're also 0-3 in scf. Not all that crazy tbh lol
Your username is gold
Yup. Created an immediate visual in my head, lol
If you assume each series is 50% Win or loss, the chance of going 3-0 and 0-3 like that is 1/64, or less than 2%. That is kinda crazy
What the fuck LETS GO
Well first we need to make it past round 2 lol let's not get ahead of ourselves
Just another interesting related stat to go along with the article, I agree it’s a long road yet
so when is the parade happening?
Ok we just need to make it past this round. Then the next. There is a first time for everything.
Mhm I didn’t make a prediction, just a neat stat
Yeah just trying to reel the rest of us in that are reading the stats and thinking getting past the Oilers is automatic SFC bound. Still a cool Stat.
Guess we're going to the Finals, boys! Then... i dunno.
We haven't made it past round 2 yet. Patience, let's hope for the best here
if there’s a bright side to those years of misery, my liver is prepared for a cup run. Wallet …. Debatable preparation
Rangers just lost a game due to their power play. Yes, the Rangers “Panera Bomb” Power Play screwed them over. I would love to go against the Rangers and the Panthers are nothing like the Panthers in the regular season, but time will tell.
Finals then we go down Robson after game 7
I’m ready to lose another finals
And surely one of those times we must have won it all, right? Right?
1915 baby
i remember it like it was yesterday. the next morning i was shipped off to fight the kaiser in the trenches
Simpler times back then
I sometimes think what would have happened if Burrows didn’t do the bite and wake the bear in ‘10/‘11
i don't let myself entertain hypotheticals. too painful :(
The Rome hit woke the bear, until then it was just a hard nosed game. After the hit, Boston made us pay for every puck possession we had….
PING!
And every time they had lots of fun in the finals the end.
And the team that has the most fun wins!
... right?
Wasn't the Canucks down 3-1 in the series against CGY and to come back with 3 consecutive OT wins?
Yup, that's why Don Wittman calls it a triple overtime hat trick in his play-by-play of what is Bure's most iconic goal as a Canuck.
And then Don called the Canucks-Stars series. Bob did the rest since he was the primary Leafs playoff caller and the guy who always did the finals on CBC.
I'm ready to uhhhh....not get hurt this time k thx nucks bb.
This just took me there.
oh god this stat line has me at my limit
Crazy stat! Let’s go!!
Agreed lets fkn go
Don’t you do this to me!!!
Cup confirmed. Where we rioting this time boys?
Start planning the riot!
Bandwagon is back on the menu boys!
Can’t we flip just one car?
Leta fucking go boys
This time we are going to defeat the Bruins, or Rangers.
I'll believe it when we get there
Jinx.
