Sick shot
Thats just poor goaltending lazy to come across the crease and results on the opening goal as 5 year season ticket holder im ashmed to say this year the islanders are gonna finish last they havent looked so bad in a long time
Who cares
Welcome to the league kid!
What a shot by lekkerimaki Go Canucks Go
Elias Pettersson 2.0
a goal in Lekkermakian style gives the Canucks the lead
Damn first was Bains and now it’s lekkerimaki damn first career for the goal
The human side of hockey. Both Suter and Miller immediately looked for the puck. The kid was humble and had a nice attitude. I bet even Bobby Orr celebrated more for his first NHL goal!
As a canucks fan Congrats to LEKKERIMAKI
Nice
What a magnificent goal for your 1st.
So what. The canucks this year are a subpar team and will miss the playoffs. They're just not good enough. Period. End of story.
The whole team thought they already won the game and stopped playing after he scored
Kid's got a rocket
A beautiful first goal.
Next Petterson
Congrats to the kid but unfortunately that was the only good thing about this game tonight. Ugh.
Too bad the rest of the team decided to not show up
Welcome to the NHL Moment
Jonathan LEKKERIMAKI Needs to stay in!
Great goal, embarrassing loss on home ice again.
Miller was trying to set him up for a goal all last game, and gave him a great pass first thing in this game. My fav part was Miller pushing around Lekk's helmet during the celebration… looks like these two could develop some good chemistry together.
The one time we need a slow mo, there isn’t one
