00:03 Tough night for you.
00:04 You were at the game, the game seven in Vancouver between the Oilers and
00:08 the Canucks.
00:09 3-2 Edmonton win, late push by the Canucks, Gabe.
00:13 Unfortunately, just coming up short.
00:16 >> Yeah, once again, the Canucks turned it on in the final minutes and fell short.
00:23 They ran out of gas.
00:24 They went as far as they could have gone in the playoffs.
00:28 I mean, rightfully, Carver, the game should have been like six nothing.
00:31 Sealovs was unbelievable, one massive, incredible save after another.
00:37 The loss of Brock Besser was just a nail in the coffin.
00:40 There's no excuses, it is what it is.
00:42 It's a war of attrition in the playoffs.
00:45 You want both teams to be healthy, but at the same point in time,
00:49 it's not gonna happen.
00:51 And you can't feel sorry for yourself and you can't feel sorry for the other team.
00:55 We've seen the Pacers take advantage of it, Carver and the NBA, right?
00:58 Giannis isn't there, they still handle their business.
01:00 They handle their business against the New York Knicks.
01:03 It was horrible timing for the Knicks.
01:05 The Canucks and the Knicks were sort of very similar actually, bro.
01:09 Like the Knicks started to fall apart, the Canucks started to fall apart.
01:13 They lost their all-star goalie.
01:15 They overcame that.
01:16 Then Brock Besser, their leading goal scorer with a blood clot, right?
01:23 There was just too much to overcome.
01:26 Great years, they brought pride back to their fan bases.
01:30 And I think Vancouver Canucks fans have a lot to look forward to moving forward.
01:34 You know, you've seen this before, and hockey specifically, the NBA as well.
01:40 You've got to pay your dues, Mike.
01:42 It's the way it works.
01:43 You don't go from zero to 60.
01:45 It doesn't work that way.
01:47 Even the Vegas Golden Knights, it seemed like they won a Stanley Cup fast
01:50 in seven years, right?
01:52 Dude, they were there all the time.
01:54 They had made it.
01:55 They were in the semifinals.
01:57 The Edmonton Oilers, man, how many playoff series has McDavid and
02:00 Drysidel been in the last years?
02:03 A lot of experience, Mike.
02:04 They've had that failure before.
02:06 Vancouver hadn't.
02:07 Vancouver hadn't been in the playoffs, bro, since the pandemic.
02:11 And it was mostly all different dudes on that team.
02:14 They didn't host the playoff series, Mike, since 2015.
02:17 So you're not really going to go all the way to the cut, bro.
02:20 They went as far as they could have.
02:22 Edmonton were better.
02:25 But Vancouver, hell of a hockey team.
02:26 Great year.
02:28 (upbeat music)
