Heretic Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 1) First NHL Hockey game - Canucks vs Hawks and Tony Esposito was in net for the Hawks 2) 94 Cup Run and being part of the festivities downtown until it got ugly 3) 82 Cup Run and towel power 4) Pavel Bure scoring 60 goals in a season - then duplicating that effort the following year 5) Canucks trading for Luongo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweathog Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 1) Burke's '94 series winner vs Calgary 2) Adam's '94 series winner vs Toronto 3) Bieksa's winner vs Sharks 4) I was at the game where the Canucks routed the Flames 11-0 years ago. Vernon got chased, Reese got lit up as well. Some Flames fans were crying in the stands, it was awesome. 5) A game vs Washington in the 88-89 season which I attended. Captain Kirk made an insane save diving across the crease (airborne) with his stick extended. Crowd went nuts, still remember it to this day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Luongo's incredible 47 win season in 2007 to drag a team of pylons to the 2nd round. Sedins winning back to back Art Ross trophies. Linden's number being retired. Burrows goal against Chicago in Game 7 OT of course. AV losing it when Bieksa got mocked by Fiddler. Honorable mentions to the Brabarian Cowen and Salo losing a testicle in the playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RU SERIOUS Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 1) The Budweiser girl named Sheila outside section 121 during the 2011 playoff run! 2) The Budweiser girl named Samantha outside section 121 during the 2011 playoff run! 3) The Budweiser girl named Barbie outside section 121 during the 2011 playoff run! 4) The Budweiser girl named Mika outside section 121 during the 2011 playoff run! 5) L.E. 1st goal - against his own team. The funniest thing I ever saw!!!!! (and a sign of what was to come !) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unspecified, and knowing Roberts, who has also seen this very thread each and every year for decades, he’s probably hoping for unscripted or uncanned answers like “1994 cup run”.

So what if I cited a few of them off the top of my head that really galvanized me? Some of the things I think of when I think of the Canucks are really sad, pathetic even. I think of the awful moments as much as the great ones and for anyone whose been around the team a while can agree that it’s been mostly bad.

Lafayettecrossbar Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Here's my personal top 5: 1. Bure OT goal vs. Flames in '94. I was 9 at the game with my uncle both head-to-toe in Canucks gear with the painted face and sign. Went down to the players exits after and got it signed by Quinn, Linden, Adams, Murzyn, MacIntyre, Hunter, and more. 2. Henrik Sedin 1000th point. I was at this game too. The fact it was a beautiful goal on Luongo and assisted by #22 & #23 made it even more special. 3. 2008/09 Playoffs vs. Chicago. Can't remember which game it was but it was the one where Luongo made that crazy rebound stick save on Eager. I got the tickets for free and sat next to the legend Jim Robson and his wife Bea in the lower bowl. Not bad. 4.Henrik's 4 point night versus Calgary. Sealed the Art Ross with beautiful hockey. 5. Going a bit off the board with this one, but the game last year versus Colorado where Petey had 5 points. He had an OT breakaway which drew the penalty Pouliot scored on, but if the ref had a brain he would've given Petey a penalty shot and chance for the hat trick.

Shift-4 Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 in no particular order first live game vs St Louis, Blues won and I have hated them ever since '82 run, got to stay up late to watch every game beating the leafs in '94 playoffs Burrows slaying the dragon Sedin era in general (Art Ross x2, Hart, back to back president's trophies) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB5 Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Here are mine in no particular order.... 1. Burrows slaying the dragon 2. Tiger riding his stick 3. "Greg Adams, Greg Adams....the Canucks are going to the Stanley Cup Final" 4. Being at the game that Gino scored on a penalty shot against the Flames. 5. Trevor Linden - the hockey player and the man. And too many others to mention. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokes Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 1) The first Bure game. 2) The goal on Vernon in 94 3) The dragon slaying goal. 4) Trading for Luongo and ending the goalie graveyard era. 5) Drafting Petterson and Hughes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westcoasting Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 so many to choose from but... 5. Geoff Courtnall overtime game 5 Calgary... the goal that brought back hope. 4. Trevor Linden overtime game 6 Calgary.... we might win this yet! 3. Greg Adams 3rd period tying goal game 7 vs Calgary. With about 5 minutes left the whole province erupted with cheers as the game was now tied. 2. and 1. Bure's goal game 7 and Burrows goal game 7... both amazing times and on to greater things. Greg Adams goal in game 1 vs the Rangers was another... right away i thought, "wow we are going to win this thing" Game 1 and Game 2 vs Boston... same thing it could have gone either way but after 2 games i was like "ok now we lead the finals by two games this time, now we are going to win this thing" lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IBatch Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Ok I will play. 5. Game two Stanley Cup Final 2011...we win and I'm over the moon...didn't think we had it in the bag but was dreaming about it for sure. This COULD have become number one on the list but the memory is powerful enough to make the list regardless. 4. Coming home late from work game 7 Final 1994...it was already 4:30 and the game was starting but still had a ten minute mountain bike ride to get home to watch it...never pedalled so hard in my life and the only time I cried because of hockey...I missed the first couple of minutes. 3. First game ever live. Circa 1992-93 ish Pacific Coliseum and I splurged for front row seats in the corner. Played WNP and we won, three fights...was on cloud nine for a week or so. 2. Game 5 againt TO...1994. We won on to the Stanley cup final...I believed it was destiny by then, the entire run was magical. 1. Game 7 CAL 1994... went camping in the Cowichan area, was pre-arranged and had the VCR set to record the game. Listened to the entire game on radio with best buds at the time, thought we were alone as hadn't seen another soul for a day or so...Bure wins it in OT and our cheers were echoed maybe 500 feet away in the bush by another group who was doing the same. The joy was palpable. Honourable mention(s). All the times my little brother would be hunched over his ghetto blaster listening to the games in the garage circa 1991-93ish...his enthusiasm made me forget my first love the 80's EDM Oilers/Gretzky. I was also over the moon when they won their last cup in 1990, watched every game that playoffs (for the Canucks too) that was televised. Also 1989 first round Canucks pushing hard for a run of their own. Otto kicked it in! For sure that was the best rivalry we've ever had. Fight filled games right past 94....makes the CHI one look trivial in comparison. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should read the latest THN ... 50 moments of suffering both Buffalo and Vancouver...100 (ok 98 because of the lock-out) year and of suffering between the two and the top 25 moments each that really suck. You named a few. No franchise has been through as much as us. At some point the Hockey Gods need to take pity on us right? Now with soon to be 32 teams ... I'm starting to wonder if I will ever see a cup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
