[Lingan] Le HC des Preds, Andrew Brunette, dit que c’était seulement la deuxième fois de sa carrière qu’il quittait une série au meilleur des 7 et qu’il n’était pas convaincu que la meilleure équipe gagnait

Was he on the way to another golf cart dui?
Your team didn’t win once on home ice
The series only went to 6 games and we only had our starting goalie for the first game, wtf is he talking about…
Is the other one the other series he lost?
Honestly a pretty pathetic statement to be making, especially when you were playing against the 3rd string goalie and got the vast majority of the power plays in the series.
« If I had a nickel for every time I left a best of 7 series and wasn’t convinced that the best team won… I’d still be an idiot. »
-Brunette, probably
He has to say that’s why are we being salty? We won, that’s all that matters

It’s a simple concept really. If you win the series you are the best team. End. Of. Story.
Was the first time in 2003?
Lauzon and Brunette just took the biggest L’s this series.
Still considered an Underdog AFTER winning the series. Got to love it !
Huh. They must’ve had a bad coach then. Maybe they should fire him.
Everybody just piling on, eh? Canucks are getting no respect. My God, they better come out flying tomorrow and shut everybody the fuck up.
Which team got shut out by the AHL 3rd string, Andrew? Dude must have blacked out after the first two periods of the series.
Should the NHL have the Canucks and Preds redo their series in case it was a big fluke?
No disrespect to the Canucks, I’m a firm believer that Vancouver beating them is a huge fluke and robs the Preds of truly accomplishing what their capable of. I’ve spent the last few days in pure disbelief and it just doesn’t make sense to me. I’ve spent the entire regular season watching the Preds play great hockey it’s just not fair.
If the Preds lose again I will face that the Canucks deserved the win, but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to the Preds and the NHL.
They lost in 6 to a team that was forced to start three different goaltenders. He can think whatever he likes but he’s wrong.
Welp some people just cope with being wrong I guess
We didnt blow them because we play honest hockey.. pretty much all season… we matches what are opponent give us.. that’s why our PDO is crazy…we dont play cheat hockey.. we grind..
I dont know who Jamie Vinnick is but they sum it up real good as well. Demko played 60mins, Petey didnt score JT had 1 goal and the Canucks won in 6. So Yeah. I think that would have been a real good follow up question How do you prove that given the information that has just been given to you?
Who?
Sad losers are sad
There’s Travis Green and then there’s Andrew Brunette
What a perd
I really hope that we beat the Oilers. The trash, « they aren’t that good » I am hearing from every pundit and even fans of our team is depressing. Goddamn Nashville was one of the best teams in the league the last 1/4 of the season.
I don’t think we played remotely close to our full potential that series, and while a lot of that was due to their defence it was also just due to a few injuries and clearly a lingering issue with Petey.
They played at 100% and didn’t even take us to 7. Even if we got pretty lucky in game 5 they were lucky at all that we had our third string goalie out there and that we didn’t even look half as good as did during the regular season for half the games.
Overall I’d say the teams PLAYED on par, but we were 70% of who we could have been while they were at 100.
It was a weird series, game 2 should have been ours and game 4 should have been theirs. We won in the end, that’s all that matters.
The fact they got to 6 games is a testament to Brunette’s coaching but if your entire strategy is « Hang on for dear life and hope we get lucky with some bounces » you probably are not the better team.
You lost to a 3rd string goaltender with your first stringer standing on his head. You were not the better team.
I think the
Preds lost their “better team this series” card when they gave up a 3-1 lead with 4 minutes to go
If Nashville was the better team, then they would have won. That’s how this works.
This has “team like that” vibes all over again
The dumb part about this is the combination of these statements. If you don’t think the best team won because you evaluate the best team in terms of flow of play or whatever, fine, but this is clearly not the first time it’s happened to you… hell, he personally scored a game 7 OT goal to eliminate the 2003 Avs as a member of the Wild. The 2003 Wild were, very clearly, not better than the Sakic avs.
that’s just the way the 2023-24 Canucks are. The better we play, the worse results we get so sometimes it’s best to just be the worse team.
We had to play THREE goalies and had half the power plays and still won. There’s no moral victories in the playoffs
He lost the games he should have and he lost the games he shouldn’t have. How the fuck can you hang your hat on any of that? Your team literally couldn’t score a goal to save your season, on home ice, *against the third stringer*??
I’m convinced if the Canucks win the cup this year the entire hockey world will call it a fluke and blame it on 10 different things and give them no credit lmao. Never seen a top team get this much disrespect.
