Canucks head coach Rick Tocchet was 'pissed off' by how much his team missed the net in an overtime loss to the Coyotes.
For the most part, the Vancouver Canucks outplayed the likely Utah-bound Arizona Coyotes on Wednesday. They controlled puck possession all night and fired a ton of shots towards the net.
Rick Tocchet’s disappointment was palpable after the game, radiating from him as he took the podium for his postgame presser. “I know the trainers very well — really close friends of mine — and they’re kind of devastated, to be honest with you,” said Tocchet. “It’s a tough one for that franchise or the players, I feel for them, but that’s got nothing to do with the game for us, other than the fact that, like I said — attempts and we only have 26 shots. I mean, that’s not a good ratio.
“I don’t think that’s really a team that’s better than us,” said Quinn Hughes, “so we probably shouldn’t be in that position.”
