While they hung in as well as they could, the Canucks, playing their third game in four nights dropped a 4-2 decision to the Nashville Predators last night in the Country Music capital of the world. Matthew Highmore and Oliver Ekman-Larsson potted goals for the Canucks, who if we’re being honest, did not get the goaltending they needed from Thatcher Demko in this one. Highlight of the night? That’s easy. Sure, there was that Mark Borowiecki hit on OEL, but that was nothing compared to Conor Garland absolutely leveling Phillipe Myers.
Not as good as the Tyler Myers destruction of Duncan Keith, but pretty damn close.
