  1. Maybe this is the first game of the Canucks redefining what kind of team we are going to be down the road with Tortorella at the helm...Almost the opposite of the 2010-11 squad.
  2. You've got to hand it to Darryl Sutter..It was on his arrival that the Kings imposed their will on the Canucks,batting the Sedins around with impunity with no retaliation..Even though I do think that AV is a good coach,it always bugged me that he instructed his players to take 'higher road' and let the refs sort it out Fortunately,Tortorella had finally seen enough....I think he told his players before the game to forget about the score and stand up for each other....We all hate losing,but I think that it gives us a preview of what the Canucks will be like come playoff time.
  3. I have a good feeling about tonights game.....The win against the Blues should give them some confidence,and I think the Canucks are due for a win at the Staples Center..
  4. Really?...It's comments like this that make you wonder....
  5. The "He's a weird dude" comment was tongue in cheek by Torts.....Don't know why some Cdc'ers failed to see the humor in that...Torts and Booth had a good laugh about it.......His playing really hit a wall,especially in the recent LA game...where he was almost a spectator on the ice......If I was to speculate why he wasn't at the Skills competition,I'd say he's probably got the flu.
  6. Check out Schroeders draft year....after he was picked(22nd),there were no real impact players available....Kesler was a solid pick....Canucks have only had 3 players in the top 10 NHL Draft in 14 years ..Bourdon (10th),Hodgson (10th),Horvat (9th)...I don't think the Canucks have made poor picks in the first round,only there's a real drop off in the late stages of the first round.
  7. Quick game...not many whistles...Nothing pretty about watching the Blues..We're just going to have to try and grind it out.
  8. He's a forward and looks French..so I'll guess Mario Marois
  9. I thought that we had a good game against them early in the season...If we weren't so banged up ,I'd say a Canuck Victory...Anyway,it's great to have Sid and the Pens at the Rog.
  10. I never knew that.......crafty...lol
  11. Who..I don't think played for the Canucks
  12. We know the Blue never played for the nix..it's Inge Hammarstrom.
  13. Weird..that's joe watsons #3 from the same era
  14. I saw the movie last night and really enjoyed it...it takes a while to get going,but it's very well done....More dialog than action,so not for everybody...I would give it an 8/10.
  15. I've never thought that the Hawks were our Kryptonite...I like the way the Canucks match up against them..Not so much against the heavier teams like LA/Boston
  16. While everybody is jumping off the bandwagon,....It should be noted that the Kings lost 5 games in a row before they beat us..Yes,even elite teams suck once in a while...I think that we could've won both Anaheim games this season,before we shot ourselves in the foot in the last minute..I am at a loss how the Canucks can come out flying in the first then be utterly dominated in the 2nd..The Ducks and Kings are probably only 5-10 % better than us right now...were not that far off.....but that's the difference between winning and losing by a goal.
  17. Disappointing performance by the majority of the team...Luongo was brilliant..but overall,the Canucks were neutralized by a superior hockey team (the Kings are more than confident they can beat the Canucks any time anywhere)...Sestito showed some jam...Booth did not....The Kings top 6 delivered,,ours did not....Hopefully,they'll kick it up a few notches tomorrow.
  18. Utter domination by the Kings in the 2d
