That is one of the biggest, most embarrassing choke jobs you'll see in any sport. I know they overachieved this year and weren't exactly supposed to be in this spot, but you'd expect the worst team in the league to close out a 3-1 lead at home with a couple of minutes left, especially with Vancouver having to start an AHL goalie. Vancouver started looked absolutely dejected with about 5-6 minutes left; they had no juice whatsoever and had the body language of a team that was about to lose the series.That's probably one of the worst choke jobs I've ever seen. That was horrendous and inexcusable. Doubt I'll stay up till 0130 a.m. to watch Canuck clinch Tues.

I bet the Preds lose G5 by 3 or 4 goals.
We've been there. F*** just going back, I WANT THE CUP.Agreed.......you could see the utter deflation heading down the tunnel after the 3rd. I had no real hope we'd turn it back on in OT.
I agree, doubt this team gets off the plane Tues. But on a positive spin, I think we waynover achieved this year and I'm hoping Burnette and Trotz are the team to push us over the hump into a Stanley bid.
Did you watch the game? I bet you didWhat actually irritates me is we've actually manhandled Canucks almost every game. Heck, losing game 2 when Van had 13 shots total or that epic game 4 meltdown should have theoretically been wins for us closing this series out.
Proud they showed up last night, but afraid it just delayed the inevitable. The fact we played more mins as the better team is what makes this series more nauseating.
