"Preds lose on controversial goal" - Huh? What was controversial about Lindholm's goal? Nothing. The "kicked in" goal was scored BY Nashville, not against them!

[@happysidhu5066]

💯... and the refs not making some calls was a bunch of BS too

[@leechap3]

That's the goal they meant, the byline is misleading.

[@austinforgues1016]

@@happysidhu5066it’s playoffs they don’t call all penalties for both teams they let them play way more

[@dajusta87]

Kicked in goal was most controversial !!

[@austinforgues1016]

@@dajusta87 there was not kicking motion tho it was a good goal skate stay on the ice he directed it in

[@ll7868]

The only other time I saw an individual performance like Boeser was when Mark Messier scored the hat trick for the Rangers against the Devils trap defence in the '94 playoffs to take the series to a Game 7. That said, if Vancouver challenged the Forsberg goal there probably wouldn't have been an OT.

[@BikJTube]

Coming from a Canuck fan, This is refreshing..The woman knows here ish!

[@NightHawk1870]

I can understand letting in 2 late goals but not showing up in OT is another thing. Plus Canucks have 3rd string goalie. Preds collapsed under pressure.

[@dajusta87]

Preds already got lucky with Canucks not having their Vezina calibre goalie, AND back up goalie, we are on third string farm team goalie!

[@rodhenson7657]

Empty net goal post was karma for the kicked in goal.

[@wayneboyd4372]

Karma for the kicked-in goal... but you win some, you lose some. Defensive breakdowns are created by your opponent's smart strategies so I see it as the Canucks just offensively stepping up when it counted. They were very composed but not unexpected from this year's team. Every year is different and every year is a new year regardless if a team makes it through to the playoffs or not. That's what's great about the NHL - you just never know.

[@leechap3]

The Canucks are due to play a good game for the first time in the series.

[@sonian6642]

They played games 1 and 2 well. Just got unlucky. But managed to win game 1

[@danielpatterson5189]

Nashville has impressed me. As a Canucks fan this series should really be 2-2 or possibly even 3-1 Nashville. Tonight they kicked our butt from minute 1 to 57. This series has been decided on the big moments. Canucks have just found the poise to execute during crunch time to pull out games they probably shouldn't while Nashville has been shaky in those moments. I don't think Vancouver has really played well at all this series but they've showed the poise that a lot of this team's critics didn't expect Vancouver to have. This series isn't over though. Nashville has been better every game this series and I expect them to play their best game in game 5. If this series goes back to Nashville anything can happen. The Nucks need to step on their throat and crush them at home.Don't give them hope.

[@adamtajhassam9188]

why give life to the loser , wish they would stop doing this.

[@stevebutkovic3365]

Can't you guys find anyone that knows something about hockey?

[@Cunningcrow]

you'd be in the minority with that thinking
