Reviewing Wild vs Canucks Game Two

@@sydreforged did anyone else see Marky was killing himself laughing immediately afterwards? 🤣

[@bozo8603]

I've been feeling that way about Eriksson for so long. He's so all-encompassingly okay. He's responsible defensively, offensively neutral, doesn't really hit, doesn't battle much. He's sort of just there not getting in anybody's way. Want him to kill penalties? He'll shrug, go out there and play some store brand hockey. Want him to play in a top-six position? He'll move the puck around a bit and skate here and there and his line will somehow function perfectly fine. Want him to play on the fourth line? Same thing. If you ordered one generic NHL player, they would send you an Eriksson.

[@TonyTreasureHunterNasr]

He's like lettuce without salad dressing. Good to eat if your on a diet but not very satisfying.

[@skinflaver]

Eriksson breaking his stick on a prime chance really sums up his career with Vancouver. I hope this is a turning point for him and he scores some goals.

[@quag311]

I kept refreshing your channel. Over and over again. At last this video arrives. 😁

[@erinbutler2892]

Virtanen's play to catch the short-handed breakaway was great and really showed off his speed. Then his immediate attempt to give it back with a low-effort backhand pass in his own zone showed off his lack of on-ice awareness. I _like_ Virtanen, but that's pretty much him in a nutshell.

[@texlemon4872]

Nearly choked at the final two minutes, but I’m still glad the Canucks won

You could tell the Canucks' powerplay was getting sharper as the game went on. Pettersson was a beast, and all the people you want to get on the scoreboard (Pettersson, Boeser, Horvat, Miller, Hughes) did.

[@PetterHughes]

I like how your reviews for the Wild vs Canucks games are longer than your other playoff game reviews!

[@wikingandersson2561]

I will continue my argument. When Loui Eriksson plays more than 20 min Vancouver wins. He had 20:07 TOI tonight. And he is a beast on the PK. Tonight he had over 4 min on the PK. 😇 Why does Travis hate this guy? Let him play. Always, so we win. Please.

[@erikwarrior9478]

I'm okay with Ferland being out. I felt like his fight actually killed the early momentum that the Canucks seemed to have in Game 1. I'd rather watch Pettersson hustle and work like he did. The shove on Hartmann wasn't pretty, but it was fun to watch Petey compete. It's a fine line between standing up as a team and being frustrated and falling apart, and the Canucks toed the line in this game. Win or lose, should be a fun series.

[@JP_HKY_777]

I am a die hard Wild fan first off. Fiala currently is our only real beacon of hope. Stalock played as good as he could being left on an island. I thought Vancouver would toss us in three and tonight showed a lot of cracks in our armor. (Mostly we have no fire power) I love the intensity of this series and it looks like it will be a great rivalry reigniting in the making.

[@Mr.Quinlan888]

When that last goal went in with 7.7 seconds left, I envisioned Shannon leaving the house🤣🤣🤣

I think they will review that head shot Pettersson did on Hartman. It was a light hit but Hartman is the perfect candidate to fake being hurt and get Pettersson ejected for a game or two.

[@Warrior_6416]

Petterson has a clean record (as far as I am aware), he'll probably get a fine at the very worst.

[@ben4215]

There’s nothing for them to review... Hartmans leg/foot is what got hurt. Probably from when they went into the boards right before he went down

Benjamin Isaacson well yeah. I’m not expecting the league to do anything about it.

Great to see Van tie the series up. Actually Jake got a bit gassed -headed to bench quickly but did hussle. Ericsson fine. Myers helpful & played hard but the penalties hurt. Stench pushed back & player w focus/good & team needs that. Only strong guy is Myers (Maybe Jade). But something is wrong & Im thinking it’s the Coach! So manymissed passes, lack of clarity on what todo - esp on PP. Some coasting & watching.. vs intense check check tight- watch for the open guy not the puck.. better be moving vs standing still which r often prone to do on PP & SH.
