Penalty problems, outworked, outskated from the get go. Not a good night for VAN but you see Hartley, we take the loss and move on instead of bringing goons in the last minute.
The hatred is intensifying as usual between Nucks-Flames.

Can't believe the time and space they had in the neutral zone today compared to the first two games. Their zone entries were textbook as well. It was very weird.
Nice to see a game played on ice for a change, as opposed to that slush that passes for a surface in Music City.

Rangers could be easily up by a couple of more goals if it wasn't for Fleury, has anyone seen Malkin? Does he even know that these are the playoffs? Get involved, physically, emotionally, something...
What a fantastic game 3 at the MTS arena. Great atmosphere, the crowd is rocking after 19 years of solitude rooting for their Jets. But with a couple of minutes left, they yet fail to protect the lead as Kesler ties it at 4. Great belly save from Andersen that could have given the home team the win at the end.
And much like the Sens, if they can't pull it off into OT is game over for WIN.
So before game 4, the league warned both CAL and VAN to cut the extra curriculum Bruins activity after the whistles. The series was getting nasty so what happens next? Since they have not much to call for, the zebras start calling crap penalties. Inexsistent ones. Two of those goals resulted in goals as 'Nucks are trailing even though I thought they played much better.
Eddie Lack is getting overwhelmed IMO, time to bring Miller in which is a risk since he hasn't played much, but we gotta stop the bleeding...
Well, Miller is indeed in but with only 3 shots in the second period, Canucks will be returning home down 1-3. Someone tell them they are trailing in the series. Credit to the young Flames kids, they are playing hard while VAN continues to have penalty problems.

Negative. But it's a rule since Rinne was the last guy seen stopping the puck. You gotta play with the same puck. Imagine bringing a new puck, there's a scramble in the crease and the original puck comes out of nowhere from his crotch and into the net.
It was funny though watching Pekka for two minutes searching for it.
That was a good OT with both teams trading chances.
Canucks are on a verge of...They just couldn't handle the Flames' forecheck in both games in CAL, I also think Hartley is out coaching Desjardins. With the injuries, you have to take some chances with the younger kids, there's no tomorrow.
But it's been done before when VAN trailed in the series 1-3 with CAL and turned things around.
We need to see more desperation from the boys. How the Flames been playing for the past two months doesn't surprise me one bit. They are tough to put away.

I feel the exact same way. Going to bed at 1:20 when you know your alarm will be going off at 5:50 is not fun. Even worse when your team loses. What is with these 8:30 starts? I'm not a fan.
I am a patient boy.
I wait, I wait, I wait, I wait.
My time is water down a drain.

I hear that!
That 8:30 is f***in bullshit. Mine goes off at 5:30
Habs except for Price were a f***in disgrace tonight.
f***in embarrassing!!!! These LAZY assholes have no heart. They have NO balls.
DISGUSTED!
Lucky they are not down 3-1.
This series is NOT over.
I am not saying they can pull it off cause even they probably cant f*** this up ...BUT ....There would be an upside to blowing the 3-0 lead...I would NEVER have to look at this moron again.
