Brock Boeser notched his second hat trick of the season and Thatcher Demko made 28 saves to lead the Vancouver Canucks to a 4-1 win against the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Seeing brock play like we all knew he could has been heart warming, hoglander has also been a beast,
Hogs Mils Boes line has been the best line the past few games for sure
It was beautiful seeing the Hog double stack two players into the boards
I don't think we all knew he was going to play like this when he got resigned last year to even more money despite still struggling every year. Go back to all the videos here on KZhead about that news and you'll see the comment sections were a collective 'WTF?!?!?!?'
Big Hooooooooog
Boeser is a nice net presence guy and trigger guy, but I think these highlights overall still give a pretty illuminating picture of how far he is from being a real core piece guy, and also kinda how overrated goal scoring can be if it's just an extension from your real play driving pieces. Hughes, Petey and Miller were just buzzing all over the ice and were everywhere, and Boeser pretty much only showed up incidentally while extending the puck into the net. Essentially the exact same role Horvat had last year before asking for too much money. He's kinda having the same role as post-injury Stamkos had on the Tampa Cup teams, where he essentially was their 5th best guy behind Hedman, Vasi, Kuch and Point. Boeser's also at best the 5th guy on Van behind Petey, Hughes, Miller and Demko.
Good penalty kill, Demko was solid, Boeser hat trick, great game boys
16-0 when leading going into the 3rd is a hell of a stat
Really, not like last season 🫣
So happy the Canucks are doing well. They're proving they are legit and not just getting lucky. Hope they keep it up and make the playoffs
Canucks is great this season, I feel so good. from Japan 😀😀😀
you should ask ohtani to come to the bluejayz
3 in a row and we beat a team we've typically had trouble with. Real happy for Brock getting the hat too! What a difference a year makes, from being a regular name in trade talks to now sitting tied for most goals with Matthews. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. Great night for Demko as well. Keep that wagon rollin' boyz!
After giving up that early 1st period goal, Demko bricked up the net for the rest of the game in a convincing 4-1 victory for the Canucks... Boeser with the Hat-Trick & his point streak is now at 8 games... Vancouver did a great job containing Stamkos & Kucherov giving them very few scorng opportunities...Another well earned win & 2 more big points for the Canucks...
... bricked up?
pause
Pause
@@brendanle101resume
Bricked up = A brick wall in net.
Love how loud the building got for Demko. He was solid
Brock is such a wonderful human being, you love to see all the success he's having this season. *COCONUTS GLOW*
Kuzmenkos guna be huge in playoffs Mark my words
That didn’t age well
😢
But atleast yall agreed with me
Hoglander's earning his keep on that Miller/Boeser line!
Nils BIIIIG HOOOOOOOOG Hoglander
@@oskforalltid 😂😂😂
The hatty for Boeser is nice, but I'm impressed from that play where he stayed with the Tampa player, allowed Demko to make the initial save, and then ensured that there would be no rebound. He is playing the 200-foot game like he said he has been working on. Hoglander was dangerous the whole night, and Demko made the key saves that were needed. All-in-all, another solid performance by the good guys in blue.
Did not expect that to be Tampa's last goal.. 90 seconds in! GJ nucks
A year ago, that would have been the proverbial nail in the tire, and they would have given up. Lol
Last year, giving up a goal that early would have meant game over. Now, they get right back to their system after giving up a goal and generally don’t make the same mistakes again. Beating Tampa is still a big deal. Vasilevskiy is finding his game, but Brock was on fire tonight and Andrei got the monkey off his back.
Yup. Tampa has always seemed to have our number. Not tonight bitches! 😉
Last year they also set new record for giving up the most leads. They could have won 10 to 14 more games if they didn't give up leads going into the 3rd period. Also different coach and system.
@skgord1 Not too proud to admit that I grossly underestimated RT's coaching skill sets. I was indifferent on his hiring but he has made me take notice of him now, to state the bloody obvious.
What a bounce back season for Brock Boeser 21 goals already tied for league lead 19-9-1 through mid December what a start for the Canucks tied for 3rd in the league With Myers probably being gone and Peterson and Boeser both needing new contracts it's a good thing the cap is going up I think about 4-5 million next season
Boeser is still signed thru next season. Hronek needs a contract tho
Hopefully the cap will go up again by 4-5 million next season as well as Boeser has already set career high in goals I think if not then really close and is only 28 games in Myers will be traded I bet freeing up cap space for Hronek and Petterson
@@Crosby4ever His career high is 29, which was his rookie season. He'll definitely hit 30 with ease the way he's been playing, and honestly even if his pace slows down, 40 should be well within reach. If he stays hot for most of the season.... no clue what kind of bonkers numbers he could put up.
If he keeps this pace could win the Rocket Richard trophy with Hughes winning the Norris and Demko winning the Venzia I think he will end with 45-50 goals this years and 100+ points He is conerstone of the future of the Canucks along with Hughes, Demko, Miller and Kuzmenko (who they have to resign) and of course Petterson
The Canucks need to make the flying skate full time jerseys!
Agreed, lets bring back 94, and create the alternate outcome
Was at this Canucks game tonight. They played well throughout most of the game. A couple of mistakes they made that can be easily corrected. Zadorov is getting his groove with the Canucks system. Good to see Kuzy score! Demko played solid tonight. Go Canucks go!
"He (Boeser) is the most natrual goal scorer I ever played with." - Henrik Sedin
Which is bs cuz Daniel was far better
canucks are legit. brock is the best American player in the game right now. amazing how terrible the lightning have been since the all star break last season
Brock #6 the flow
Shutting down kucherov def was a key to canucks winning.
@@TheBlazersfan22 also demko playing out of his mind
JT Miller and Quinn Hughes (and his bros) might have a word with you on that! ; )
@ryan979_ true. True on that. Demko made some really grear key saves on those pp tampa had.
The Brock Boeser comeback tour continues. Last year Boeser was not tradable due to the same contract that seems like a bargain today.
Imagine if we traded him with a high draft pick
There was a trade rumor about sending him to Boston last year. I am sure people remember Cam Neely trade.
06:55 Solid references by John Shorthouses "Look at that, Look at this, look at that" 😂
pls keep Kuzmenko at all cost
Canucks really brought the physicality in this game. Grats Boeser on the hat-trick.
Myers is stealing money. It’s insane how bad he is
Demko IS HIM
7 years. Only took us 7 years to beat Tampa at home.
Brock, Duke is proud my friend!
That’s a big win, Boeser had some beautiful shots and Demko had a great night. Love to see it.
Woo!!! Faq yay, Brock with the hat trick and what saves from Demko on Stamkos.... wow, nicely done
Demkos! Nice Greek Dinner "Burp"
Hoglanders looking confident, im just waiting for a Michigan from him
I love brock
Кузьменко Михеев и Петтерсон. Это звено будет прекрасно!
Hoglander letting everyone know he has a new home in the top 6
Really liked Boeser's goal where Hughes turned the jets on and found him in the slot. Hughes is such a great talent
Set play too apparently
Yes I think so . Great play .
Little rusty for first couple of minutes, but Canucks settled in and played a solid game all the way through. PK looks good, Demko played like Demko, Kuzmenko with a much needed goal and Boeser with the hat trick. Good chance Suter comes back next game so that'll really help the team even more.
720P in 2023.. what is this
Boeser playing the way he did before his injury in his rookie season
Well played Canucks. Now prepare for a strong Panthers team.
Although against an underperforming Lightning team, I compliment the Canucks locking it down in the third period😮
Косатки с победой!!!! Как красиво Кузя вскрыл Василевского!!!! Демко просто волшебно удержал ворота!!! Ванкувер вперед и только вперед!!! Болею за Вас. Ps: игра защиты была намного лучше.
If someone had told me last season, that next year Hughes Miller, and Petterson would all be top ten in points near Christmas , and Boeser would actually be tied first in goals, I would assume it was some misguided attempt at humour. But here we are.
Well that made my day . Awesome
they skipped 15 mins of the third period LMFAO
Tampa Bay have been one of the Canuck's bogey teams for the last number of years. 2016 was the last time Canucks had beaten them at home. To exorcise that demon tonight is a step in the right direction!
Yes, they are one of the teams that have the Canuck's number... them and the Jets... seems like the Jets always, or mostly, beat the Canucks... nice to see them beat Tampa... this Canuck team is changing the script and getting out of old patterns.
Detroit had a huge hole too v Tampa. like it was 32-1 on home ice in a 8 year span or some crazy number. Thats Tampa's thing, lives rent free in their head, then eventually they wise up and figure it out.
Canucks the new dominant blue and white team.
BROCK HARD WITH THE NATTY HATTY!!
Time to face reality... my Lightning are just mediocre... a middle of the pack team that are losing puck battles consistently and struggling to get pucks out of their own end... goal tending vs the Lightning has been outstanding for a solid month now also... -7 goal differential places them 22nd out of 32 teams...
Yeah we have sucked. Idk wtf is happening to us
Too many player changes. The salary cap killed what might have been a dynasty. Look at this sorry roster compared to the two Stanley cup years, especially on D where AHL players clog the ice.
@@01TA True... losing the likes of Palat Killorn Maroon and McDonaugh have hurt the team chemistry we were used to...
It's a shame theres some beautiful hits in this game, yet none were shown in the highlight package.
🏅 go canucks go!
GGS Lightning. Well the boys in nlue do it again. Hat trick for Brock great job. Demko with a lot of beautiful saves and lots of great hits. This was an awesome game to watch. GO CANUCKS💙💚💙💚💙💚
Also I maintain that Vasilevsky is the modern Brodeur for sure.
Are we not going to mention they played the “look at this; look at that” clip on air?
It seems like nothing ever happens in third period when SN shows “highlights “ yet every single shot is shown in first 2 periods? Why is that? It’s a constant trend in these summarized games?
I'd still like to see more shots, but this was a solid win.
Boeser, Hughes, Demko 💪💪💪
Weird how half our team, and most of the elite talent, is American. Strange for a city situated in a country that has dominated the sport internationally over the decades.
@@donmackie6086 Thier Swedish player and Russians also played well. Last year Horvat who is Canadian was doing well before he got traded.
@@skgord1 it is odd how we're a major Canadian market in a country known for its consistent dominance in the sport, yet Canadian born players make up a minority of the roster and with none of those classed as elite calibre. But we're the top line for team USA. Funny world we inhabit.
@donmackie6086 Canada still produces the best hockey players. The reigning cup champions Vegas have the most Canadian players of any team on their roster. But yes I see the irony
Damn!! impressive!
We love Brock!!!!
Good shot by kuzmenko 🎉🎉🎉
It would be nice to see some hits in the highlights. I heard there were quite a few in the post game show.
Yeah, Canucks win 4-1 over the Lightning, Boeser with the hat trick!! This was a top notch win over a quality team. Canucks played really well! Boeser's father, who tragically died from dementia and Parkinson's disease, would be smiling up in heaven, watching his son score that hat trick!
'LOOK AT THAT, LOOK AT THIS, LOOK AT THAT' - I see what you did there, John (7:00).
Myers played well tonight, remembering to tie up sticks around the net.
I was too tired to stay up for this game. I just woke up, dreading we may have lost 6-2 or something. This was a pleasant surprise
That was the first time I have seen the Canucks beat the lightning 🚨🚨🚨🚨🏒🥅
Demko made the difference stopping all Tampa's big guns repeatedly.
Let's go boys!!
Glad canucks end that losing streak against Tampa.
What was Myers doing on the first goal? :(
Cole, Soucy & Zadorov will see this team to the final. I promise.
Man with all these teams getting feisty, building rivalries, I don't really see Vancouver having any rivalries. They're beating teams simply with skill, class, and composure. Keeping their focus on the W.
Ай Касатки молодцы!!!
Yeah let’s gooo🎉
Retros forever!
Oh ya!
Vancouver is on the positive roll
@8:00 "Well, the captain was dancing in this one..." You don't hear that a lot in pro sports commendaries but Canucks fans know exactly what he was referring to...haha.
This Canucks team is like A box of chocolates Never know what I'm gonna get
god damn those jerseys are fire!
Go Canucks Go
Демко привнёс стабильность и уверенность Ванкуверу.
Random question for you guys… is this the year vasilevski won’t be the highest rated overall goaltender in the next nhl game? (Nhl25)
Yah baby
Tampa has been a mess for the last month or so. They have looked god awful at times. Then they have nights where you think they might just turn it around - but nope. They are giving up way too many goals, and it’s not exactly Vasilevsky’s fault. If it wasn’t for Kucherov right now, this team might be soon in contention for the number one pick. Tampa will be in search of a new coach at this rate. You could see at the end of this game how frustrated they are. Something has to give.
The Bolt's don't have any electricity in them :)
I think Canucks will win the cup
Кто там на Ови наезжал, мол в пустые ворота забивает? Тут в пустые только с третьего раза попали.
Ови уже и в пустые не попадает, оставьте старика в покое.
@@narrative16Он ещё Греческого догонит. Какие его годы.
Tampa is such a downfall right now🤣not saying they won’t make the playoffs,but no where near cup contenders
The inevitable consequences of a franchise that sees significant success in the post season.
Canucks kept it simple and look at that…score 3 plus an empty netter. Take what the opponent gives, don’t force it.
LFG!
Браво касатки!!!
Ну чё,идём за кубком?...
96 is been practicing in ovies office.
Kuzmenmo appreciation society.
hoglander is sooo good
Lets NOT trade Kuz...look at the return of brock
Isn't Tampa tired of losing?
Good
Наши порвали молнию.....😂😂👍👍🍁🍁👍👍💥💥💥💥
Bring it on LA...
After watching several videos of the Stanley Cup finals from 2011, 2012 and 2014. I noticed that the teams of today play a zone defense, not more of a man to man. Today’s defenses are horrible.
They still play man on man in certain situations but only against the best players.
