It does seem like the Avs always seem to have an extra level of play their elite players can elevate into once playoffs start… The Oilers seem to be doing the same right now… the Canucks, meanwhile, seem to have a snare since the all-star break and has not been able to regain its form. I'm feeling more and more that, even if the Canucks come out of round one, they would not be a match for the Oilers – the 4:0 regular season head-to-head record means absolutely nothing.

Bob Cole was a gem.
RIP Bob
Of the 16 playoff teams,the only team worse than Vancouver is Nashville. Painful series to watch.
John Shannon is amazing. He speaks rationally.
If Pettersson is not injured the Cunucks are screwed for years . We should start calling him “Oliver Loui Pettersson “.
I love the Canucks… but I cannot stand EP. That “kid” is pathetic and has no grit or heart. Wish we traded him when we could.
