  1. 2-1 OT win. Hansen in regulation and Juice wins it in OT for us. Lack stops 21 of 22 for a 0.955 save percentage.
  2. I don't wanna tank, even if it means the difference between a 5-10 pick and an 11-14 pick. I'll never want us to lose. However, if we drop that far because we just literally are that bad, then so be it, I'll be happy with a high pick.
  3. 5-4 'Nucks in OT. Hank gets two, Burr gets one, Edler gets one, and Higgy wins it in OT.
  4. At the other end of the spectrum, is it always the coach's fault when the players aren't playing well? The Sedins were put in defensive positions because Torts knew they'd be good at it. I don't know about you, but I was amazed at how well they could play defense once they were utilized in that manner. Because of Torts, they're no longer known as one-dimensional players and have expanded their skill sets.
  5. Baloney. Torts has done well IMO. The team has been playing like crap, and unfortunately management has sucked as well.
  6. If they close the roof, they won't have to worry about delays and constant clearing of the ice. It's just logical.
  7. Hey, in both 1982 and 1994 we were fringe playoff teams and look what happened.
  8. Could be, but it's a risky move considering Lack's... lack of experience.
  9. Here it is for those who don't want to go looking for it. I agree. I'm not sure if management told him to apologize, but it was completely unnecessary. As both a fan and a coach of the Canucks, it made more sense for him to cheer for Sweden. Absolutely no offense taken at all, Torts. Cheer for whichever country you like.
  10. 3-2 SO Win for St. Louis. Frankly doing this well against such a good team would almost be a victory.
  11. If we trade Horvat or Shinkaruk, I will be livid unless the return is young and full of potential.
  12. I think completely eliminating short players could be a mistake. Some short players throughout history I found: Paul Kariya - Had a 50-goal season Martin St. Louis - Won Two Art Ross Trophies Pavel Bure - Among the best goal scorers of the 90s, led or tied for the lead in goals three times Dino Ciccarelli - Finished with over 600 goals, seven 40+ goal seasons Denis Savard - Five 100+ seasons, one 131 point season Bobby Clarke - Hard-nosed forward had three 100+ point seasons and led team to back-to-back Stanley Cups Theo Fleury - Managed four 40+ goal seasons in a relatively short career Pat Verbeek - Eight 30+ goal seasons, finished with over 500 goals Pat LaFontaine - 148-point season Mark Recchi - 123-point season that included 53 goals Marcel Dionne - Six 120+ point seasons, one of the best forwards of All-Time
  13. 9-1 'Nucks. Burr gets all 9 to break out of a slump.
  14. I'll be honest, I only really care about hockey, though I may passively watch some other events.
  15. Started workin' out again for the new year. I'm glad I made it to February, getting through that brutally tough first month.
