On the NHL Stanley Cup Playoff podcast with Mary Lisa:

#1 With just 33 second left in game 5 of the second round the Vancouver Canucks and the Edmonton Oilers tied 2-2 in the series, the Canuck’s JT Miller score a late third period goal for the game winner to edge the Edmonton Oilers 3-2 at Rogers Centre in Vancouver on Thursday night.

#2 Carson Soucy and Phillip Di Giuseppe also contributed with goals for Vancouver as both returned to the line up to score two of the three Canuck goals.

#3 The Canucks can wrap up this second round in game 6 Saturday night at Scoitabank Arena in Edmonton. The Canucks rookie goaltender Arturs Silovs has been a sensation in net in game 5 he stopped 21 shots and allowed two goals in the win.

#4 Vancouver head coach Rick Tocchet said after game 5, “Almost every single guy gave us everything they had,” Tocchet said. “Resilient. I thought the guys were terrific tonight. They really came to play. It thought it was obviously one of our best games in the playoffs.”

#5 So Mary, it’s game 6 and the Canucks can eliminate the Oilers to take round two or the Oilers can once again tie up the series and force a game 7. It’s been a tight series as the last two games were decided by one goal. How do you see this one in Edmonton tonight?
