Controversial late penalty costs Canucks an undeserved win over ... (Sportsnet.ca)

Rick Tocchet is still unclear on the controversial penalty call on Elias Pettersson that ended up costing his team a win over the Flames.

It was a big goal in the game, too, so I think everyone was fired up for him.” Rathbone was a fourth-round pick in 2017 who has spent most of the last three seasons in the minors (or on the injured list or pandemic taxi squad), but was recalled from the American Hockey League when the Canucks decided this week to shut down defenceman Filip Hroenk for the rest of the season. Asked by reporters after the game to explain his decision, Kuzmenko said through teammate and interpreter Vitali Kravtsov: “We respect everybody and everybody's choices. “I can remember playing street hockey; his dad would play goalie all the time. I think he was more happy than I was. I think a couple guys didn't execute the way we wanted on that heavy forecheck, but we battled back, though. Former Canuck Tyler Toffoli scored twice for Calgary, including a top-shelf finish on a game-winning two-on-one at 3:27 of overtime, to fan the Flames’ unlikely playoff hopes. Pettersson, who happens to be the Canucks’ best player and one of their top penalty killers, was assessed only a minor penalty at 15:38 after linesmen Devin Berg and Trent Knorr huddled with referees Kevin Pollock and Kelly Sutherland. “I've got to figure that one out. They did their best and made a call I didn't agree with. “Yeah, I don't know what to say. It appeared on replays that Duehr had lifted Pettersson’s stick with his own as it came up and struck him.

Beyond the Boxscore: Calgary Flames keep hope ignited with ... (Flames Nation)

The chances weren't all that great – the Vancouver Canucks have gotten extremely defensive under Rick Tocchet – but Calgary made the most of what they were ...

Lindholm (79.25%) was the next closest Flame after a huge night for him and his line with Mangiapane (77.93%) and the game hero Toffoli (78.09%). Their linemate Lucic (28.91% // 0%) gave up two high danger chances – they were both on the same shift and one resulted in a goal against. A couple of guys got away with what I call no event hockey – no high danger chances for or against – and they were Lewis and Duehr. I don’t think it was as bad as that makes it look, but I also don’t think it was a great performance. Kadri (58.63% // 84.29%) and Dube (64.53% // 81.10%) lead the way for the forwards with new linemate Nick Ritchie (63.12% // 76.29%). He’s gotta be sure, and he’s gotta be soon, and he’s gotta be larger than life. Corsi Clown – Every single person finished in the positive column for shot attempts. Corsi King – MacKenzie Weegar (74.91%) is no stranger to being on the positive side of any metric. Taken By Chance – MacKenzie Weegar (85.82 SCF% // 100 HDCF%) being the only player to finish with no high danger chances against him at 5v5. The chances weren’t all that great – the Vancouver Canucks have gotten extremely defensive under Rick Tocchet – but Calgary made the most of what they were given. Mangiapane (74.72%) lead for all the forwards. The two points was well deserved for a Calgary Flames team that was in complete control of the puck for the majority of the night.

After going down 2-0 to the Canucks early in the second period, the Flames would get goals from Tyler Toffoli and Blake Coleman to claw their way back. That tie would be short lived as Vancouver would get one back after a Flames fourth line breakdown in their own zone. They achieved that in dramatic fashion against the Vancouver Canucks on Friday night.

I Watched This Game: McDonough scores first NHL goal, but ... (Vancouver Is Awesome)

Aidan McDonough scored his first career goal, but the Vancouver Canucks couldn't hold on to a 4-3 lead in the third period against the Calgary Flames.

- The Flames got a bounce to go with the call. The Flames immediately went the other way and Toffoli scored the gamewinner on a 2-on-1. Instead, the issue was that a linesman called it instead of one of the two referees and linesmen are only allowed to call missed double minor or major penalties. Instead, he returned the puck to Beauvillier to smack into the net to make it 4-3. Brisebois played it like it was man-to-man coverage and focused on tying up Dillon Dube, but it was a 4-on-3 rush and Brisebois needed to play more of a zone defence, taking away the left side of the ice. Myers rimmed the puck around the boards and it bounced out into the neutral zone, giving Anthony Beauvillier and Nils Åman a 2-on-1. He peeled out from behind the net and threw a shot on goal that was stopped, but then Dries made a brilliant pass from his knees, backhanding it to McDonough at the back post for the finish. McDonough stole the puck off Milan Lucic and cycled it behind the net to Studnicka. - The Canucks put on a first-class Pride Night with only the damp weather putting a damper on the Pride Party in the Plaza to kick off the night. The Flames got a crucial win that kept them just two points back of the playoffs. It turns out that the Canucks have trailed going into the third period a lot of times this season. A big reason why they’re in that position is that they literally couldn’t comeback in the third period to save their lives.

The Statsies: Sloppy defence costs the Canucks against the Flames (Canucks Army)

The Vancouver Canucks couldn't quite extinguish the Calgary Flames' playoff hopes, losing 5-4 in overtime in a very back-and-forth game. Some old habits looked ...

With the Flames playing Pettersson and Miller close attention, it was this unit that posted the best CF% (44.44), best xGF% (73.63), and the best SCF% (100.00). It’s not a bad thing, taking advantage of the opportunities that present themselves, but this one shouldn’t have been close. It’s something worth celebrating, as well as the fact that the McDonough-Dries-Studnicka line was actually the best statically last night at 5v5 play. Myers put up another stinker in this one as he dogged in a 20.93 CF%, a 3-17 shot differential, a 4-13 scoring chance differential and a 17.18 xGF%, the second-lowest to only Miller’s 14.13. As if to add insult to injury, his 15.38 CF% was pretty darn awful as the cherry on top for a rough game. Four of the five goals that were scored against Demko were recorded as high-danger, the other one being middle-danger. A 0.22 xGA, the fourth-lowest on the team, was a large reason for it, but Rathbone did himself a lot of favours by also managing a positive HDCF differential, putting 3 toward the Calgary net while only conceding one, and being on ice for two goals for. As for their offensive zone, the Canucks weren’t nearly as effective as the Flames in terms of the number of chances generated. Luckily, the team as a whole was out-possessed quite heavily, thus meaning his -23.25 CF% rel wasn’t as bad as it could’ve been. Corsi Champ: With a quick snip-snap to the AHL, Jack Rathbone returns to the NHL lineup as the leading Corsi man last night. Outside of the one goal from the left half-wall, Calgary scored four goals from the slot area. The Vancouver Canucks couldn’t quite extinguish the Calgary Flames’ playoff hopes, losing 5-4 in overtime in a very back-and-forth game.
