A bit, but it was to be expected. We still have a lot of young men out there. They don't have the body mass and the Blues play a very heavy game. Watch along the boards. More often then not, the younger Canucks just put their stick in for the puck. The blues players use both their sticks and bodies as they go through the puck. Ignore the refs called this, call that etc, and alot of the game is just a bigger team using their weight.
I was very impressed how the younger players did against Min. but the grinding of the playoffs will take its toll on them. It a great learning curve for them. I just hope that they can win one more (or more :>) for their efforts.
