I Watched This Game: Miller reignites Canucks power play in Game 3 win vs Predators

Coming into Friday’s Game 3 against the Nashville Predators, the Vancouver Canucks emphasized the importance of getting more shots on net.

The Canucks’ 12 shots on goal bettered — or worsened — the previous record of 13 shots on goal, which they did twice: once on April 23, 2003 against the Minnesota Wild and once on May 22, 2011 against the San Jose Sharks.The Predators out-shot the Canucks 31-to-12 but it should be noted that 24 of the Predators’ shots came after the Canucks took a 2-0 lead. When Brock Boeser scored the 2-0 goal four-and-a-half minutes into the second period, the shots were 7-to-5 for the Predators.

“One of the parts of our DNA as a team is making the goalies play half the net, protecting the middle, and when it gets loud and crazy, just do your job and stay in your structure,” said J.T. Miller. “We don’t have to do anybody else’s job, you don’t have to go rogue.
