  • Scientists will tell you that there is no such thing as "The Clutch Gene", but I present to you an athlete that has the ability to take his game to remarkable heights when the stakes are highest. His name is Arturs Silovs, and he is the Vancouver Canucks' third string goaltender! He has carried them to the second round against the two best players in the world, how far can he possibly go?

    Team left him out to dry tonight, only player that gave a noticeable effort was Garland…Silovs has all the makings of our “next Demko” he looks so comfortable in the crease and the fact he’s performing at this level in such high stress situations proves Ian Clark is the GOAT goalie coach

    • @TheBluelineHockey
      @TheBluelineHockey  Місяць тому +25

      Garland was the only one to give it a 60 minute effort. On the powerplays, which were pathetic, he was the only one that looked dynamic.
      Once Silovs improves his puck tracking and long distance shots, look out. He has prime Vasilevsky/Bobrovsky written all over him.

    Silovs balls are HUGE. A rookie goalie going for a poke check like that down 0-2 in an important playoff game! IF YOU’RE A GOALTENDER, BEAT KANE IN A FOOT RACE AND STOP A BREAKAWAY!!!!

      From the very first moment Silovs took the net he had a profound swagger about him, especially for the situation. I noticed it immediately as i was checking him for nerves... the complete opposite, he looked eager to go and in complete control.

      That was entertainment. Silovs in a sprint with Kane for puck possession. As John Cheech Garrett said, as Silovs came out, he kept control and played it perfectly, low crouch to avoid collision, kept his balance and skate brake and was aware of possible rebound to another oiler

    I didn’t know that the Latvians introduced hockey to the Russians. Or that they had a hockey culture from the 1930’s. Back to tonight’s game. I agree with Ian Mckintyre’s synopsis. This version of the team hasn’t fully plugged in to playoff mode. Partly because half the roster has no playoff experience. Tonight’s game was crucial for the Canucks and they didn’t play with the same desperation as Edmonton until the third period. Learning curve
