Update: Dan Murphy tweets that by the looks of things at practice Tanner Glass will sit and Victor Oreskovich will draw in. (h/t jizosh)

Ooof! Look at those Canucks stats drop like a bride's wedding pajamas. That's what happens when you get destroyed and outscored 12-2 in your last 2 playoff games. Fear. Canucks nation is ripe with it. It would be different had the last 2 losses not been blowouts. But they are what they are. The players will tell you "Well shit there's no difference between a 5-0 loss and an overtime loss" but I'm not buying into that. Quite simply, what positives can you take from getting your ass handed to you 2 games in a row? The answer to that is not that the Canucks did some things right in games 4 and 5. Because that basket is about empty. No, the positive lies in the fact that Chicago has to win 2 more games and the Canucks 1. The rest is a complete identity change by the Canucks.

Game 6 is going to tell the story in my opinion. The Canucks can win it and end it. If they lose but at least put up an effort for once and it's close then I'll feel more optimistic about a Game 7 at home. If they get blown out again all bets are off. Of course, I accept the fact that regardless ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN.

Star-divide

The bottom line here (to me anyway) is for the Canucks to score first. Get that team confidence level back up. They have not lost in this series when scoring first, leading after 1 and leading after 2. Back to basics. Get that defence back in order as well. They have to tighten that up. I don't even care if they have to trap to do it. F*ck, bore us to death if you have to. Too many Hawks are rolling now. They are oozing with confidence. Win at all costs. Also, that monstrous physical game they played in the first 2-to-3 games needs to return, as well as the team discipline. If we don't see the above happen this one is going 7. No fucking thank you. Send these foul beasts into the abyss...in their own barn. I want to see Vince Vaughn reduced to tears. I want the Hawks' heads on a platter.

You can see why coaches and players preach 1 shift at a time and 1 period at a time in situations like this. When mental fragility sets in you need to think that way. Momentum is a bitch in the playoffs. It can be lost in a single instance/moment. In Vancouver's situation it can be by an excellent start right from the opening faceoff. One or a few excellent shifts right off the hop. An early goal. A stinker let in by Corey Crawford. Hard work that results in winning battles all over the ice. Power plays that may be rewarded as a result. A giant save. An injury. A hit. We'll know if /when they achieve this. Given the way things have been going, even a scoreless first period will be a win of sorts.

Hang in there, Canucks fans. The team has preached character and leadership in the dressing room all season long. Surely that hasn't died a quick death. I'm not writing our boys off yet.

WHO IS HOT / COLD

Can someone not named Sedin get on the scoresheet? Please? There's a lot of talent up front but it has disappeared the last 2 games. The Sedins need to be better too, no doubt, but where is the supporting cast?

CANUCKS

HOT

-Daniel Sedin:  1 goal and 2 assists in his last 3.

-Henrik Sedin: 4 assists in his last 4 games.

-Christian Ehrhoff: 1 goal and 3 assists in his last 4.

COLD

-Alex Burrows: 1 goal and 1 assist in his last 8. Get your shit together, Burr. You are better than this.

-Ryan Kesler: 1 assist in his last 3. Yeah, he's doing the brunt of the shutdown work in Malhotra's absence...so I give him a bit of slack.

-Maxim Lapierre: 1 goal in his last 29.

-Mason Raymond: 1 assist in his last 6. C'mon already.

-Tanner Glass: 0 points in his last 17 dating back to February 24.

BLACKHAWKS

HOT

-Patrick Kane: 1 goal and 4 assists in his last 4.

-Bryan Bickell: 2 goals and 2 assists in his last 4.

-Duncan Keith: 4 goals and 2 assists in his last 3 games.

-Patrick Sharp: 3 goals and 2 assists in his last 3 games.

COLD

-Marriane Hossa: 1 assist in this series. Keep it that way.

-Troy Brouwer: 0 points in this series.

-Viktor Stalberg: 1 goal and 1 assist in his last 13. Playing mostly 4th line minutes though.


INJURIES

CANUCKS

-F Manny Malhotra: eye, out for playoffs

BLACKHAWKS

-D Jordan Hendry: left knee surgery

-F Tomas Kopecky: upper body, (doubtful for Game 6)

-D Brent Seabrook: concussion (possible for Game 6)

In all seriousness, I doubt they really wanted to cut him loose, for the “little things”.

But he had so few points, and at the end of the season, 2 broke feet.

Blackhawks score a crap ton because, as you’re well aware by now, DAVE BOLLAND IS A GOD, but the Sedins score more, with a hat trick for each twin, and a heart attack for all of you every time a puck gets past Luongo (because, obviously, ginger JESUS has better things to do on Easter and won’t be available), and in the end, joy, glorious joy that you won’t be able to enjoy because you’re laying on the ground in front of the TV wherever you are, which will be very awkward for those of you who decided to go watch the game in public, with all the emotion and energy wrung out of you by what will end up being, did I mention, a triple overtime game.

From the Team1040 a few nights ago. Not enough people in the media are talking about this. A perfect technical break-down of everything the Chicago Blackhawks have done to change their tactics and start exposing the Canucks these last two games.

It’s not about effort. It’s about strategy.

Listen the whole thing from 43:20 until the interview with the guy from the AP ends.

He’s mentally fragile or he isn’t? His “evidence” of that is his reactions after goals, looking frustrated with a defence which this guy acknowledges is atrocious right now and letting in goals that no one stops.

I agree that the Hawks adapted and the Canucks didn’t, but I can’t buy the whole “he looks mentally fragile” thing.

Fair enough.

I was specifically talking about how the Hawks started doing drills to lure D-men out of the middle of the ice, and then maneuver back there to shoot.

Instead of blasting from the point and looking for rebounds, they’re opening up space, taking their time, and picking corners

That is more than line-matching, that is a clear change in on-ice strategy. And the Canucks haven’t adapted theirs.

You are right

the Hawks have done a very good job of adapting the Canucks and the Canucks have done a very poor job of reacting to it. I agree with him, that the Hawks are just exploiting the weaknesses of the system, but “they’re in his head” or “he’s mentally fragile” just doesn’t make sense to me. He’s frustrated with a D which doesn’t seem to be willing or able to adapt and defend the net. So he’s been showing it a bit. So? I am sure any other goalie would too.

True words
@sportsnetmurph
Dan Murphy
Jonathan Quick gets shelled for 12 goals in two games, then steals a game with 51 saves. Luongo, you’re up.

AMFB. The Canucks need to watch Game 5 from last year to remind themselves how to shut down the Hawks.

2 possible predictions for this one

If the Canucks step their game up… 3-1 good guys, Dank GWG.

If they don’t change…4-1 hawks, Keith GWG.
