It's Incredibly Hard to Win in the NHL Playoffs
As a Vancouverite surrounded by Vancouver Canucks fans, this past season was phenomenal for the city. All my Canucks fan friends were rightfully going crazy about the team, but even people who never talk about sports were getting in on it and watching their playoff games. Downtown was an endless stream of honks and cheers after each win, and the city was finally proud to watch their team. It seemed like everything was going their way this season: Elias Pettersson, Quinn Hughes, Thatcher Demko, Brock Boeser, and JT Miller having career seasons, Conor Garland, Dakota Joshua, and Teddy Blueger becoming one of the best third lines around, other players were riding high shooting percentages, Tyler Myers was back to his old self, Rick Tocchet was the perfect voice for the team, and they were healthy in the regular season.
