Edmonton Oilers beat Vancouver Canucks 6 -2 in Vancouver on Thursday night .

Fans in Vancouver are upset about Corey Perry's antics against the Canucks .

Some were upset about the lack of pushback from the Canucks against Perry and the Oilers .

Others said Perry is a coward who goaded a player into a fight he never intended to accept.

The Vancouver Canucks are out of sync, out of touch, unharmonious, inharmoniously, deharmonious.

It's crazy that this team, that had everything go right last year , now has everything going wrong.

Corey Perry , fresh off imploring the league to protect its stars, picks up and face-plants Quinn Hughes .

I just didn’t see much success. They tried to punch him and failed. They tried to hit him and failed. This is why a player like Perry is so profoundly annoying and upsetting. He’s a demon of the Ice Palace . He swoops in when you’re not prepared and attacks in cold, calculated and merciless fashion. When you strike back, he disappears, with all that remains his taunting words and sneering laughter in your ears..
