Kakanucks

best we'll do is stay in 3rd i think, norway just swept the podium with woman's cross country and vic wild won another gold for russia

brad jacobs and boys looking good so far, nice lead

daniel sedin with a pretty good game, big part of that 1st goal, and getting an assist on the 2nd hope its a canada sweden final

wow....rask out with the flu, go sweden~ and i just love watching the webcast feed on cbc.ca, no commercials, no intermission sideshow, and no glen healy

u can watch the whole game online at cbc.ca

man....how many times are we gonna keep shooting it wide???

maybe the fact playing with backstrom and louie erikson is alot better than playing with a struggling burrows and hansen??

Go Team Canada Women's Hockey!!!! repeat of 2010!!

a good thing about watching the webcast version online on cbc.ca is avoiding all the commercials and "analysts" during intermission~

wow is everything going well for victor an..........almost movie like...... continuing to rub into team korea's face.....lol, whoever ditched him should be fired

they probably didnt take slovenia seriously, i mean they have kopitar as the only nhl player on the team, first time in the olympics, and suddenly bam! 3-2.... buts its 5-2 russia now, definitely kicking it up a notch now

wow slovenia putting up quite a fight, 3-2 russia after 2

daniel and henrik has been the franchise players the past years, and just because they're not producing as much as before, they're suddenly trash and deserve no respect from the fans?? kesler had really been inconsistent for the last 2 season, and quite disappointing so far, yet noone says anything. People here just look at the 7 mil contract the twins just signed and expect them to continue carrying the team while others key players get a pass. besides burrows, who imo, a 3rd liner to borderline 2nd liner at best, somehow developed chemistry with them, which legit top 6 player have ever been provided them with? sure they make up 2/3 of a line, but thats exactly it, 2/3 they're not the WHOLE line....they still need another player to play with. IMO, i'm more worried about kesler, he was supposed to be that first line center to take up after henrik to start the transition, but he has been invisible, and hardly noticable at best. The past few years, since sundin and demitra, he has not developed real chemistry with anyone, he had a rotating door of linemates, and every season, we blame them for not being the RIGHT players kesler NEEDS.....so earlier this season, we finally saw kesler with the twins...and first he was hot, but then he disappeared....if even the twins can't seem to get kesler going, WHO are these so called "RIGHT linemates" that kesler so needs? ppl here also said kesler does the right things besides scoring, like shutting down opposition? but kesler is a minus player so far this season, so there is obviously something wrong there. I think, maybe we should consider asking kesler to waive his NTC, and trade him for a linemate for the twins, obviously kesler still has lots of trade value, we can easily package him with a few players and get a good player back. Then there is the defense, we spend so much money our out top4, but yet they are average at best most nights. Its like they all suddenly forget how to play D once they become a Canucks. We have about 3 of the same type of players in our top 4, bieksa/edler/garrison. All "offensive" d that likes to pinch in the offensive zone. IMO, we need to balance out our top 4 with another stay at home defenseman. If we were to trade away one of the 3, I would choose Edler, because bieksa has intangibles that others can't replace (heart & bite, and this is coming from someone that was never really a bieksa fan, but this season, i realized he's an important part of the team), also Edler would look very appealing to teams than bieksa. Unfortunately, I dun think garrison would garner as much of a return as edler. If we could package up kesler and edler, I think we could get a pretty great return back. But even packaged separately with others, it could still be great for the team. I also don't think we can afford to have both twins and kesler together when the young ones transition in....Unless kesler can prove that he can carry the team like the twins once had. So far, I don't think he's really carried the team besides that one 2nd round series vs nashville. PS. Sorry for the super long post, but I was also thinking how we don't see our top players held accountable, and still having them on PP and given top minutes, I am starting to wonder if its not a Coaching choice...but from higher up, imagine say, Aquillini not wanting the top players scratched or benched, most audience, are not as hardcore fans as we are here at CDC, they probably only know a handful of players at best, so it might upset a lot of people if say daniel or kesler is not playing, and in their place are some young kids most that don't follow our prospects have never heard of. At the end, it is a business, and having our top guys out there, no matter the performance, will sell to most fairweather fans.

our team has enough experience to not entirely fall apart like a team of young players would, and sully and gully is more than enough to keep the team intact. do it for torts!!

when is insomnia??? also anyone going to armin's intense in may???

Wow....I'm so sorry that you had to put up with this pathetic of a team, and that you had to go through so much trouble to come all the way to the canucks forum to tell us how you have no more feelings/money invested into this team. I feel for you, I really do. Now us fans are very sad to see you go, goodbye now

the only person that's an embarrassment to the league is...well...mr. colin campbell......and his buddies in NY head office Edit: for the record, I'm fine with the suspension, at least it wasnt the full 10 games....

I know the the sedins have been really bad lately.... but hello.....WHERE IS KESLER?! he's supposingly the center that will eventually take over henrik.... the past 2 years...we were saying he's injured...he needed time to rehab and get healthy.. well...he's healthy now...and he's been nowhere where he should be.... at this point, i think we should consider maybe kesler just won't be that #1 center for us...i think we should consider trading him....for a top forward for the twins... i mean....are we seriously gonna trade the twins?? both? daniel or henrik? who is gonna want both of them, and who can we get back, even though they are slumping hard, they are still the most skilled players on our team. Not counting this season, i feel the sedins have done more for us than kesler really has.... and don't get me even started on the defense.....we have the highest paid top 4 and apparently none of them can really play d......when your youngest and least paid defensemen (tanev & stanton) has outplayed them.....boy oh boy....starting to think our top 4 is overrated... all my own little rant and opinion though

wait....how does kass get another 10 min misconduct?? what did he do? i missed it

wowww...we should be damn proud of the boys on pk~ 11 min pk is crazy, and we killed it off, i dun think i would be mad if we even end up losing this game and oh so many chances right after

ridiculous......refs have a hard job because play is too fast my ass

please no more garrison bieksa pairing..... play garrison with corrado and weber bieksa

definitely need a regroup in the dressing room, canucks stopped playing after kassian got hurt

i thought bieksa played his best this season when he was paired with stanton.... his play kinda went downhill ever since stanton's been out.... and garrison has been bad these last few games.....

to be fair, hamhuis pushed him in, not sure what he was trying to do there....
