TwinTelepathy Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 So here we are....the President's trophy winners on the brink of elimination not even a week after the playoffs even started. I predicted before the series that the canucks would pull this series off in 7 and I STILL do (even though I didnt know this particular situation was bound to happen..). Look guys, I believe that if the Blackhawks can force a game seven like they did last year, the Canucks most definitely can force a game seven and win the series at home. This is the team that went to the cup final a year ago and have been through an even more tiresome series (with chicago) and it looks like they are now in a similar situation. This is the canucks style of play. They are pressure players. The kings were VERY lucky to win tonight and if the canucks can bring their "A" game like they did tonight, they WILL get the bounces and the victories. I think the nucks will pull a Philly and heres what I think will happen: Game 4: The canucks will play the same type of game they did tonight and beat the Kings next game. Game 5: The series will come back to Vancouver and I think Daniel WILL be back in the lineup as there is a 4-day break in between Games 4 and 5, the canucks will win with their regular lines and Henrik and Burrows finally find their game. In game 6 we come back to LA and we play our hearts out (once again) and Force a game 7. In game 7, we win the series with the support of our fans with our original, championship calibur lineup. Note* After the Flyers came back against the Bruins from a 3-0 series deficit in Round One, they went on all the way to the final... I believe the Canucks can do the same and actually WIN the cup; something in which the flyers failed to do. This scenario may seem unacheivable, but it ain't over till its over. * P.S. We need someone to step up for Henrik. Brown's hit was not acceptable. Bertuzzi and Ottawa's tough guys answered for both Zetterberg and Alfredsson..... if Henrik keeps getting pushed around, MG has FAILED to achieve his "toughness" that he promised Canucks fans throughtout the season (which is why I was up for getting Chris Neil) and as Mike Babcock said: "if someone doesn't stick up for you (the refs), you have to do it yourself". Alain should be saying this to his team. Believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanev's Smirk Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Here's my opinion (oh this should be good!) In game 4 the team throws everything they have at Quick, but it's not enough and the team loses 1-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdeath Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 To summarize: Win game 4 for Daniel. That's it. If we can steal game 4 it's a totally different series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etsen3 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I don't know how anyone can actually predict that we will win the series at this point. Don't get me wrong, we still have a chance, but in this situation "believing" is more like "crossing your fingers and hoping against all hope for a miracle". All we can do is hope for victory and a big confidence boost in Game 4. One game at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theminister Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Yup, sure. I'm in. These other lilly livers have no stomach for adversity. They call out the players, coaches, management, league officials, media....but they give up after losing some battles. History is replete with occasions of wars that were won under worse circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plaguez Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I've learned that there is no higher power that will grant wishes like a genie. Canucks are done. Vancouver Canucks are the NHL equivalent to the Chicago Cubs..we aren't ever, EVER going to win it all. Much as I would like it if both would, it isn't going to happen. My prediction? Canucks completely implode in game 4, losing 6-1. Mike Gillis will make no significant offseason moves and AV will still have a job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Chardon Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Canucks will lose in game 4. The game will be all but lost by the second period and the 3rd period will deteriorate into a penalty filled goon-fest with lots of Canucks being ejected. Mark my words. I know all.

Ghostsof1915 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Well when your team is losing the major battles, guess what. You tend to lose the war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginu Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 La will not pass second round... The only reason they are up 3-0 is because of our inability to score... We had troubles scoring in the Boston series last year and let's face it, the team had a really rough start then it got a little better and pulled some wins just to go into a slouch mode for the past couple if months. The kassian trade really did not help us at all and actually hurt our already low scoring core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXx_seabass_xXx Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 I don't care what you call it, believing is believing. I'd rather people 'cross their fingers' than disregard the series altogether like the majority of bandwagon Canuck fans have already done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
