"Gotta trade Petey while you can get value for him": Vancouver Canucks fans disappointed after OT loss to Carolina Hurricanes spoils comeback attempt

Vancouver Canucks fans expressed their disappointment on social media following a tough 4-3 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes in overtime on Monday. The Canucks found themselves trailing 3-1 in the second period but staged an impressive comeback, tying the game at 3-3 in the third period and forcing overtime.

However, just 46 seconds into overtime, Sebastian Aho scored the game-winning goal for Carolina, leaving Canucks fans feeling frustrated after a hard-fought effort.

Here's how Canucks fans reacted to the defeat on X/Twitter, with one posting:

"Gotta trade Petey while you can get value for him."

Another chimed in:

"Lanky such a beauty."

Here are some of the other top reactions on X:

"Maybe the refs could call the cross checking on Burnes or the hooking on Miller breakaway or that Pettersson play. Idk, maybe that might’ve changed the outcome of the game," opined one.

"Loved seeing us battle back. Could have easily won this game. Still some tuning needed. Need to hit the gas out of the gate and I think that'll help us. Lankinen looked awesome too, deserves all the praise right now," another chimed in.

"I hated the Debrusk contract when they signed it and I still hate it know horrible contract for a streaky player," a third user commented.

"Had no reason to even get a point. You played 20 minutes of hockey. You better come out and play a full game on Wednesday or my 200$ admission plus the 6 hours of driving and hotel fees, food and other shit is gonna be a hella waste. Can’t expect to get bailed out by a back up," another fan expressed.
