HOW THE CANUCKS CAN STOP CONNOR MCDAVID

Joined by Bruce Boudreau to discuss what the Vancouver Canucks can do to stop Connor McDavid and Edmonton Oilers.

BRUCE THERE IT IS

[@danielpatterson5189]

A combination of Miller, Lindholm and Hughes. Challenge the breakouts out of the Oilers zone so he isn't flying into the Canucks zone with speed. That will help for starters.

When did alfred hitchcock become a hockey expert?

[@broadstreet21]

You mean Ken Hitchcock?

[@davehorseman]

@@broadstreet21 Google Alfred hitchcock lol.its a joke

[@ClassicalSquaresoft]

Vancouver already did their first objective injure Leon. Now they just got to keep Connor at bay and gg. No Connor means no Hyman cheese. Just let someone get a break away on Skinner.

Drey and McD only played 8 minutes together the 1st series. But thanks for the analysis Patrick Duffy.

[@benjaminaxselholm]

Even on the PP?

[@gorgeousgeorge5173]

@@benjaminaxselholm No, 5 on 5 time.

[@JaySharp604]

McDavid held to one assist and zero shots on net.

[@flatmoontheory]

Didn't even get a SoG.

I like the cover

He wants his job back

[@Alexi781]

woah never seen hitchcock in color before

[@Dawg476]

They can’t, they can only hope to contain him, and they probably won’t be able to do that. More than 2 PPG in the playoffs last 2 years

[@AbesamisM]

i love tsn

[@FatCatw]

0 shots on net lmao mc crybaby in shambles

[@neostar63]

Miller and Lindholm matchup against McDavid and Draisaitl. Keep out the box and keep the Oilers off the board first 10 mins when they double shift McDrai

[@gorgeousgeorge5173]

Canucks better focus on scoring some goals, not just slowing 97. Only 6 Canucks had goals their entire 1st series - 6 games.

[@perrysansregret7571]

If they keep winning..it doesn't matter so much..but would like to see a breakout in goals

[@AbesamisM]

lol jesse and his jets...

[@BrowneyedGirlmjd]

Two simple words…. They can’t!!!!

[@Hiddensquid49]

They did all season, see you in the final’s bud it’s revenge year.

[@StreetFig]

[@Dauntlessedits]

You were saying?😂 Zero shots. Lost the game. Yikes.

Nobody can stop McJesus. Sorry, not sorry

Swept by Jets in '21, swept by Avs in '22, shit kicked by Knights in '23.

Hey, save your blasphemous monkier. There is only one Jesus, He is God Almighty.

All these years later and yall still asking how to stop mcdavid.. you think the tape would be out in that by now. The only thing that will slow him down is age.

[@roofpizza1250]

Miller already has a history of doing it. Welcome to hockey, you must be new here.

[@medhatshaun8660]

@@roofpizza1250 well I mean if you want to say that, sure he shuts people down but he also doesn’t produce when he’s playing defensively. I don’t think that really counts.

[@medhatshaun8660]

@@IanStrain23328 how’s that working out now?

[@broadstreet21]

Know where he is and stay above him. Easier said than done. Because McDavid is probably the smartest guy out there on the ice, as well as one of the fastest and most skilled. Add insult to injury, he's also bigger and stronger than the Canucks' best players, specifically Hughes and Pettersson. You'd have to be Nicklas Lidstrom to be able to do that, know where McDavid is and stay on top of him. Although Hughes could probably come close - he's a smart player with wheels, he could at least keep up with McDavid.

[@SKINNY531]

Canucks have 1 and a half lines...laughable

[@rdeh1678]

Canucks have 4 strong lines

[@OgiJun]

...and yet they still made it 5-0 this year..held McJesus to zero...frakkIng ZERO SHOTS.😂
