There is NO WAY that just happened….
The Vancouver Canucks lose to the Columbus Blue Jackets 7-6 in a shootout. Aatu Raty two goals Canucks with 2 different multi goal leads, Elvis Merzlikins though came up big in the shootout. This was one of the craziest NHL games all year.

When I saw the lead at the end of first period, I was just telling myself it’s only a matter of time before they choke the lead. And Lo and behold! They proved me right.
Damn you know ts bad if deaner is swearing
…. oh but it did Deaner. It did indeed.
It wouldn't be a Canucks game without overtime. It's a shame they suck in 3v3 and shootouts considering they go there every game. They can't win a draw if their life depended on it and they can't bury it during OT even on breakaways. This shootout they didn't even try to score, they tried to do a slow lob and a weak wrist shot from high slot? Lekkerimäki atleast tried to get around the goalie but didn't have a plan.
No idea why Tochett didn't pull Lankinen
😅😂😂
Holly fuck indeed Deaner
Luke was right Canucks suck. And like the sabres they will never win a cup..alvin is a dolt, The owners are a joke don't spend money on marquis players..lindh9lm/zadorov/ their best players in playoffs and wont sign them is proof of there incompetence. Wouldnt give Z an extra 400k to stay? Owners dont have winning mentality and never spend. Dont say the cap, they can make room. The best forward theyve had in 30 years is marcus naslund..messier didnt count..its a loser franchise for a loser city. Luke was right. Managing money doesnt win cups spending does
Canucks wouldn’t be where they’re now without Lankinen, but after he signed that extension he’s been pretty meh. They at least got a point… at least Raty looks ready to be a full time NHL player.
This game was the best match I’ve ever seen along with winning 7 parlays and few correct scores 6-7 6-6 etc massive odds. I’m still astonished they won. Absolutely incredible
This game was literally Canucks @ Wild, 2025 Edition. Anyone remember that beaut of a road game from last year?
That was honestly too much…
God I just wanted the city of freaking Vancouver to have a lil life injected into it by at least making round 1 of the playoffs … it sucks. It would take a modern day miracle but hey … Stranger things have happened right? 🤷♂
My heart couldn't handle last nights game
You know it’s bad when deaner swears
Im officially not a serious fan anymore. Time to stop watching games
Listen..Canucks suck..they always will. 55 years of garbage. What we going to do now? Fire the coach again? GM? Fold the team. Move it. Vancouver is cursed.
For the life of me I can't understand who keeps choosing Garland for the shootouts. He is entirely predictable and doesn't possess the skill level that many of the other players possess. Raty was on his game and would have been a far better choice. Tocchet never chose Lekkerimaki for the shootout against the Devil's as it was one of the coaches upstairs that chose him. Garland does all these high tempo things that ultimately end up with the opposition getting possession of the puck. I for one hope they trade him as he's too small and constantly gets bumped off the puck.
That game was amazing lol.
After seeing the 3-0 lead, I thought there was no way we were going to lose. Man was I wrong.
I suffer anxiety with every shot on Lankinen. He's way off his game. You're not going to win no matter how big your lead with atrocious net minding like this.
The goal wanted a pice of that on cunuck in overtime 😅
I'm still trying to figure out why Demko didn't pay when he was hot on a roll for the reminder of these important must win games? Tocchet fk'ed up this time!!! Guess Demko being out for over a year wasn't enough?😂
Kevin Lankinen was off that game did not play his best
Sad because Raty went absolute godmode
Is it bad that this game had me missing petey
45 years of ups and downs for me. It is HARD being a Canucks fan!
Canucks follow up a loss with their best game of the season, Jets are shaking in their boots! (Sarcastic) Demko back tomorrow though!
The Canucks just don’t have the skill level to compete with CBJs of the league. Canucks are a tier below these kids of teams.
I swear, after every game, I think, "it can't get much worse right?" Every time I have been proven correct. Me looking at this game before hand, I was like, "okay, I know the Blue Jackets were good earlier, but now they're doing terrible. If the Jackets were doing good coming up to this game, Canucks logic would basically lead me to think they actually had a chance. However, since the Blue Jackets were throwing up until this game, I should have figured that this would have happened." And since the Jets are good, I honestly have no clue what the hell is going to happen. I would be shocked if anyone has won money betting on the 2024-25 Vancouver Canucks.
Canucks are on a long road trip with a patchwork roster and a season from HE dbl hockey sticks. Anyone could see that no one on the Canucks had any legs in the 2nd and 3rd periods. They have been playing every second night with travel and it caught up to them. Columbus could obviously sense it and their confidence grew because of it. Lankinen has come back to earth and looks like an avg goalie. To be sour on the Canucks for not being able to overcome everything that has gone on….is wrong IMO.
All season our problem has been defense or sitting back when we have a lead
Toc looks done
