It’s becoming a similar story for the Vancouver Canucks.
In the third period of hockey games (after they find new and creative ways to blow a lead) the Canucks trot out the same five players to try and rescue them.
Sometimes, those players get tired and take a penalty. Sometimes, they do tie it late before blowing it in the first minute of overtime.
Ironically enough, both of those happened last night.
The Canucks had a power play last night with seven minutes remaining, and the fivesome of JT Miller, Bo Horvat, Brock Boeser, Elias Pettersson and Quinn Hughes stayed out for the entire two minutes.
