Since it appears as though this will be a recurring idea, might I make a suggestion to the OP?

Break up the posts a bit.

The way you have it laid out now makes it rather difficult to ascertain who is speaking (ie Poster #1, Poster #2, or if it is you making a comment on something they said)...

Perhaps using bullets, indenting, or using quote boxes (i know there's a limit on how many of those you can have in a post), perhaps italicizing comments that you make, would make it easier to recognize.

Example:

Currenlty you have:

Yeah, about that...

**** you, you creepy gingers

Perhaps change that to

Yeah, about that...

-**** you, you creepy gingers

I do enjoy reading these, I just think it would add to the readability of the thread

Keep up the good work

I'd be in favour of a folder pinned to the top of the page. :)

"one team will get a close win 3-2 my prediction Dats,Alfie,Eaves D. Sedin 2"

"^^^I dig it! Those pesky gingers always scoring.."

Who do we want to see Kronwalled? Kesler, Burrows, or one if the Sedins? I'd love to see Eaves bury a goal tonight. I would love to see some Swede on Swede crime.

Daniel's goal

ACK! The Creepy Twins!

Jimmy **** the bed there wtf was he looking at???

Quincey with a Quincey-like play, and Howard didn't track the puck well. Wonderful.

Damn these twins...

Yeah, about that...

**** you, you creepy gingers

It's amazing that we have defenseman that still make pee wee mistakes

Smith with a pretty blatant cross check there. Sedin didn't have to dive on that one. ;)

The Wings gotta decide what kinda team they wanna be. Too many times in games they could make a pass to gain possession into the zone, but elect to dump it in. I've watched the Wings for a long time and can't remember the last time outside of a playoff game where we've ever dumped pucks in as opposed to carried them and been successful. The forwards are good enough to still play puck possession, the defense just needs to get the pucks out of the zone and support. Hopefully Babs lights a fire under them going into the 2nd... but I've been hoping he'd do that for games in a row now.

But Holland needs his washed-up, over-the-hill veteran scrub plugs. It's what he lives for. It keeps him going, makes him happy. Do you want him to be unhappy? What kind of a person are you?

We. are. terrible. in. our. zone.

Wow a lot of missed holds

Zetterberg is getting mugged all over the ice

How is it possible to have a second line of Cleary - Weiss - Bertuzzi? The top-six has been aging and stagnant for years and yet it somehow still isn't improving. No wonder the Wings can't score goals. Been lacking a true goal-scoring winger since Hossa left. Would it really be any worse to try Tatar and/or Nyquist there instead?

ALFIE! Hell just froze over because Smith and Quincey just made good plays at once :lol:

There is most definitely at least one person wearing a Bruins jersey near the end (our right) of the 'nucks' bench. That guy is my hero.

Tatar! The Wings look far better tonight than any of the past four games. Good pressure and not giving up a ton of shots against Jimmy.

Exactly. The ASSist goes to Luongo.

We are playing a much better game than we have in a while, win or not atleast we're starting to climb out of that "playing like absolute s***"-hole we've dug ourselves.

I hope we blow Luongo up in the 3rd so he'll go on twitter and make fun of himself after the game.

Torts changed up the first line.

Sedins split up! "We'll see who handles who."

A complete garbage shot by Cleary gives the Sedins a good opportunity going the other way. He's so integral to this team not being nearly as good as it should be

I'm glad we're winning and all, but GAWD are we sloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow!

It drives me how stupid Dano is nowadays, your shot will never get on net if you wind up for a slapshot on a two-on-one, especially against block happy Vancouver.

Luongo is playing like his old elite self. Unreal.

At least once a game the cameras go close up on pav blowing a snot rocket.

It's awesome.

That's about as weak as it gets on that penalty (Dan's penalty)

A chance to put the game away on the PP and Cleary can't redirect Z's pass in the net, or even redirect it. I want to punch Dan Cleary and Ken Holland in the face simultaneously.

Howard sucks, replace him now.

WE WON A GAME

SUCK IT 'NUCKS

Best forward: Pavel Datsyuk. Amazing, as usual. Honorable mention goes to Henrik Zetterberg.

Worst forward:: Daniel Cleary. Once again, Cleary was totally worthless. He lost the puck constantly, did nothing of use, and committed what almost ended up as a very costly giveaway in the final minute. Honorable mention goes to nobody in particular.

Best defenseman: Danny DeKeyser. He did very well playing on the top pairing, and, sans a few minor mistakes, looked as if he perfectly well belonged there. Honorable mention goes to Niklas Kronwall, who had a pretty good game.

Worst defenseman:: Nobody. The defense played very well tonight, as the high-flying Canucks were limited to a mere 20 shots on goal.

MVP: Jimmy Howard. Solid as always, Jimmy made 19 saves on 20 shots against tough opposition. The single goal he let in was a bit odd, but not very stoppable.

Goat: Dan Cleary. See above.

Overall Grade: B+. This game was played very well defensively, but despite the number of shots the Wings took, offense remained a problem. Still, it was a worthy effort that garnered a win against a very good team.

I just realised you´re the Canucks secret agent :) spying the enemies and tracking their positions :)

In the interests of expediency, I was, for the most part, just cutting and pasting. I can easily add my comments in bold and perhaps put more headers to break up when the comments were made during the game. If not pressed for time, I'll take a shot at making it "prettier" and more reader friendly.

after looking up some stats from one of the best seasons ever by the Canucks Sedin's and Kesler Combined for 39 percent of the teams goals

right now the same 3 players are right around the same mark for combined goals and the percentage 39

the team is also tied 5th in total goals scored and are 15th in GF/G with players like Higgins Santo and Richardson 4 goals each then Edler Hansen Kassian and Garrison with 2 goals each i am not getting why people think this team doesn't have depth scoring

Yes. But we had Ehrhoff..

Given the amount of injuries to the forwards, a night where the Canucks just couldn't get any secondary scoring was somewhat inevitable. Too bad the PP couldn't pick up the slack. I'm looking forward to getting everybody back and healthy. If Booth can perform in a top 9 role and Schroeder keeps up his solid play, a third line of Booth-Schroeder-Hansen could be a huge boost to our offence.

Maybe my opionion does not count because I was a Detroit fan before I was a canuck fan and thus they are my 2nd favorite team. So maybe this is why I have only seen respect and kindness from other Redwing fans because I belong with them, but it makes me very sad to hear people claim that All detroit fans hate canuck fans and the canucks. Detroit is not only one of the classiest teams in the nhl but also have classy fans! Just because detroit one the game doesn't mean we should bash their fans.
