Nikita Zadorov fires shots at the city of Edmonton ahead of game three
The Canucks and the Oilers split the first two meetings of the series in Vancouver. They'll now be moving to Edmonton, where games three and four are meant to be held in the next few days.
As the Canucks head to Edmonton, a few of the team's players were interviewed and asked how they felt about the city and its hockey building. Per his usual self, the Canucks' big Russian D-man did not mince his words and fired shots at the opponents and their city.
After spending the majority of the last two seasons with the Flames in Calgary, Zadorov knows his fair share about the Albertan lifestyle. When he was asked about Edmonton and its fan base, he said it all. He referred to Edmonton as a city where there was nothing to do, except for watching the Oilers:
«It's fun, they have good fans, diehard fans. I mean, there's pretty much nothing else to do in that city except watch hockey." #Canucks
Game three will be taking place on Sunday, in Edmonton. The Canucks will be playing to recapture their lead after they suffered a heartbreaking overtime loss in game two. Let's not forget that the majority of the analysts placed bets against the Canucks and even viewed them as the underdogs against Connor McDavid and his troops.
Now that the first two games are in the books, do you think that the Canucks have what it takes to bring the Oilers down without Thatcher Demko?
