just that...the team

http://www.chillerinstinct.com With the Canucks entering Game 7 of the Western Conference quarterfinal against the vilified and rival Chicago Blackhawks, one must put the goal-keeping controversy aside and think solely upon the team's play as just that - the team. In the past, that is what foiled the attempts put forth by Vancouver versus Chicago in the playoffs. The Blackhawks as a team were superior to the Canucks. Without getting into specifics and hashing all kinds of statistics and s

The Game Of Their Lives

No matter how they got here, or what direction they want to take in the future, the Vancouver Canucks are literally playing the most important game of their lives. Only three times in history has an NHL team erased a 3-0 series deficit to advance to the next round of the playoffs. There has been a lot of talk about the Canucks' chances of earning the dubious distinction as the fourth team to facilitate such a collapse. Rife with drama and storylines, this series has seen it all, f

Time To Shine

It's time to throw history out the window. Forget about the past two seasons. Forget about losing 3 straight and facing the dire possibility of becoming only the 4th team in history to blow a 3-0 lead in the playoffs. Forget about winning the President's Trophy. Now, it's just about winning one game. It's about giving everything you have and finding a way to get it done. This series has more than lived up to expectations. While games 3 and 4 were a letdown to even the most objective hockey f

Canucks' Guardian Angel

In every game the Canucks play, I'm sure they play their hearts out and remember that someone, up there, will guide and help them all the way. Here's another string of edits made by me and my friend (smilingfromtheclouds). Text are lyrics from the song Someone's Watching Over Me by Hilary Duff. Photos are not mine though. I hope you like them! :D P.S. The lyrics are perfect for some players, despite the weird combination of hockey and an emo song, check out burr's and luc's most especi

CCC - Clay's Canucks Commentary for April 25, 2011: Desperate Times Call For Desperate Measures (Haikus for Game 7)

So it all comes down to one game between the Vancouver Canucks and Chicago Blackhawks to see which team will advance in the NHL Stanley Cup playoffs. Game 7 will be on Tuesday night at Rogers Arena. After the Canucks stormed out to a 3-game lead, the Blackhawks have evened the series in mounting an improbable comeback. As the fans in Vancouver become increasingly nervous, I felt that I needed to go back to my roots. After all, desperate times call for desperate measures. Thus, for this CCC

NA NA NA NA, NA NA NA NA, HEY HEY HEY GOODBYE...

"NANANNA, NANANANA, HEH HEH HEH, GOODBYE. Well, for the first time in my thirty five years as a Canucks Season ticket holder I am jumping off the band wagon. I have seen this movie way to many times. Every time I think the Canucks have a legitimate shot at the Stanly Cup an opposing team finds our teams weakness, and exploits it. In 1982 we had Grit, determination and great goal tending but,lacked the offense to go toe to toe with the likes of Gilies,Potvin and Bossy. In 1995 we ha

Bolland spanks the Sedin Twins

Dave Bolland (a PLUS 5) has exploited the fact that the Sedin Twins (a MUNIS 11) can't/won't play defense. Bolland has turned this series around and has exposed the Canucks for being the paper tiger that they are. Where are you Sedin twins???? Can't you handle a little pressure? Now on top of this, can someone please get Lou to a shrink to figure out his multiple personalities? What the heck was he doing in the locker room, and not supporting his team on the bench?? And finally, if Torres is so

CCC - Clay's Canucks Commentary for April 21, 2011: The Sky's Not Falling...Yet

For this Clay's Canucks Commentary, I welcome special guest director and cinematographer Ben Van Kleek (www.benvankleek.com) to talk Canucks. I met Ben earlier this month when he asked me to appear in David Blair's music video "We Are Canucks" (as Ben was directing and producing it). In this CCC, we give our impressions of the Canucks 5-0 loss to the Blackhawks in game 5 of their 1st-round NHL playoff match-up. We also talk about unruly fans, Canucks music videos, and Ben's new Canucks fan

Canuck Momentum

The team, and the fans, just needs something to lift up their spirits! And since I can't post an album in the gallery (no idea why, tech errors?), I'll post it in this blog. I do not own any of the pictures. Concept was by my friend (smilingfromtheclouds). Edits were done by me. Text/Lyrics are from a school production. I hope you guys like it, and I hope the players see it!

Okay, Now You Can Panic

I know the road to the Stanley Cup is always a long journey, filled with peaks and valleys, disasters and moments of elation. But I didn't expect this journey to involve stepping on a land mine and then getting hit by an Atom bomb. I think that's about how most of us Canuck fans are feeling right now, and I didn't even fork out a few hundred dollars to have to sit in the Rog and have to witness this catastrophe. Am I overstating things? Maybe slightly. The Canucks still have 2 more chances t

Don't Anybody PAAAANNNNNNICCCCCCCC!

I knew it wasn't going to be easy. I fully expected Chicago to come out and play great in game 4. I also expected that the Canucks would have a killer instinct that has been missing for most of 40 years. Clearly I was wrong. Why awake a sleeping giant? (Okay maybe giant is the wrong word, these aren't last years Hawks but they certainly have some confidence back). The best way to go deep in the Playoffs is to finish teams off as early as possible so you can rest. I guess you could say the Hawks

Jory-esque road blogging, day 2

Today was a busy day, however a great day. It was such a good day, that it made the Canucks loss only feel remotely terrible, as opposed to rage-enducing terrible. All I can hope is that third period fired the boys up to come back home. I'm really tired right now, so I'll make it short and sweet - the future is bright!

Jory-esque Road Blogging, day 1

Ah, nothing like water at 30,000 feet. Wait, actually, this water tastes terrible. I don't know how that's even possible. At least the cookies are good though. I'm typing this message on board a delta flight bound to San Francisco. For the next week, I get to spend my time (although most of it will be preoccupied with work) in a 'balmy' 60 degrees farenheit (about 15 degrees celcius). It was that nice in Saskatoon recently, until mother nature decided to play a cruel joke and go back to -10 and

Go Canucks from South of the border!

Okay, so here I sit....Monday AM, and completely giddy out of my mind, knowing the our beloved Canucks are up 3-0 against the Hawks. It is so frusturating for me being a true Nucklehead south of the border. Hard to share the excitement that many of you are talking about over the water cooler today.........I can't help but to think of some of your "workday" discussions up there..... But, here I sit, a wife who dosen't like or love the game (and the sad thing is she is Canuck by birth), a son...

Hockey is worldwide

First off, I would like to introduce myself a little bit. Some people may wonder how guys in Germany (there are quite a few on this board) get in touch with NHL hockey and remain lifelong fans. I have been into hockey from my late childhood on. Before I even knew the rules of the game, I was out with the neighbors' kids playing street hockey. That was between the age of 9 to 12. When I was 12, something sparked my interest for the "real" hockey on ice: Our local team, the Nuremberg Ice Tiger

CCC - Clay's Canucks Commentary for April 16, 2011: Come Aboard the Bandwagon

In my CCC for April 16, I start off with some in-person footage from the Canucks' 4-3 victory over the Blackhawks in game #2 at Rogers Arena. Then, I focus on bandwagon jumpers and I explain why I've completely changed my opinion on them this year. In fact, I argue that long-standing Canucks fans like me should welcome bandwagon fans with open arms as opposed to judging them or rejecting them....all in an effort to build Canuck Nation. However, I also outline 3 conditions in welcoming thes
