I have NO WORDS to describe this Canucks team…
The Vancouver Canucks just destroyed the Stanley Cup Champion Florida Panthers 4-0. JT Miller is back, Kevin Lankinen was a beast, Brock Boeser, Quinn Hughes and Jake DeBrusk all got on the stats sheet. The Canucks looked good after a bad result against the Blues.

It looks like Canucks might be coming into their own at last. Pacific division rn is a gauntlet excluding Ducks and Sharks
Line up changes helped a lot. Plus JT played a roll emotionally too!
Kevin!
Johnathan Tanner Miller!!!!!!!!
Friedman is the missing piece!
This game was beautiful, and lankinen man he was insane i’m not even sure we need demko with him in net.
Best nucks vids post game…my go too
^_^
Lankinen spankin' em, JT back with apples for a chant, DeBrusk still streaking (Lind-who?) Sasson turns the gas on, and Brock puts a bow on his 500th go.
What a game, what a show, defending champs chumped, dumped, and pumped. Florida gets 4 goosed.
Hey, since tix cost an ear, why not chant "GO VAN GO"?

When fully healthy, this team can make it to the western finals with what they’ve currently got. And no, last year’s Canucks were not going to beat last year’s Panthers team. We had Mikheyev, Lafferty, Di Giuseppe, Aman sucking up minutes and Ian Cole scoring in the wrong net. Depth players are way more useful this year.
Each d man had a +1 tonight…WILD. What a breath of fresh air this game was, so good to have Milsy back as well as forbort.
The Canucks team tonight reminds me of the Canucks from last season. The Canucks team from the Blues game reminds of the Travis Green Canucks.
Sign the Lank
Kevin Lankinen is HIM.
The contrast between last game and this game can really only speak to the difference that JT Miller brings to the team and not having to play depth forwards up a line. You could see it in the TOI: even their stars like Petey/Miller/Boeser only played 14 minutes, Quinn Hughes at 22 min. Overall better depth just leads to just less tired bodies and better play. Fourth line also had a standout game, so playing them 10+ minutes really helped. Forbort was great too, you could tell Tocchet really likes him.
I think it's cuz we didn't willingly put Desharnais into the lineup
What I found different today compared to the last game was the level of communication. You could HEAR it on ice-level cameras. Felt like I heard nothing last game. Today, I heard "Teddy" and "skate skate skate" during today.
What a game. I was at the game (first win when I was in the building)and it was a textbook game full 60 this was the 2023-24 Canucks team and it was great to see
Man it's becoming a hard decision between Lank and Demko, obviously Demko is better but If he goes down again before the end of the season I don't know man I would rather lock up good than take a chance on very good
Always good to see the canucks win a game at home even though they haven’t played good at home
We're going 50/50 on some of these, but THE VANCOUVER CANUCKS ARE GOOD. Lankinen just became the Mayor of Vancouver, Shutting out the PANTHERS of all teams is mental.
((I also do feel Canucks instead of Oilers in the SCF against Florida would have been DRASTICALLY DIFFERENT, but that's for another time.))
Most importantly… We've done it. We broke Bobrovsky, he's mortal. ALL HAIL 'LANK THE TANK'
I 100% believe if the Canucks won against Edmonton, they would have won the cup
Time to get rid of the black jerseys lmao bad luck I swear😅
Team is just getting healthier.
Our 4th goal it orginally went in but bob took it back out and we put it back in. If you don't believe me look at the footage I was watching the game and saw two angle one from the top and one from the side and it clearly went in fully be4 it came out before being put back in, if I'm making sense now
The two faces of the Vancouver Canucks
Trade Demko, already!
I haven’t heard anyone say this yet but I think the Canucks are very good at matching the tempo of the other team while they should be setting their own.
