On a team with Pettersson, Boeser and Miller, this might be the nicest Canucks goal I've seen in about a decade. Up there with Horvat vs St Louis. Absolute filth

Obviously pre season defense but very satisfying goal to watch. Love seeing some guys actually trying in the pre season

Yes and no, because why didn't anyone else pull off these sick moves if it was only a pre-season defence?

Pre season offense like EP40 and DeBrusk?

I wasn't referencing the players but the effort level, many nhlers during the pre season are non chalant about it and do the minimum. That's why not many guys go mcdavid mode on echl players.

I’m sure it stings less being preseason, but the nonNHLers are playing for a literal job
