I don't know if Roy is the answer for the Canucks when it comes to going against Teams like the Ducks, Kings and Hawks who can play the physical nasty game and absolutely plug up the ice physically like they do.

It just doesn't feel like the Canucks learned their lesson last year against the Kings who physically took the Canucks to the woodshed.

At this point the Canucks should be trying to accelerate to the cup, not stand fast, the window is closing.

I would hate to be any team right now that has to face big fast physical teams like the Ducks, Kings and Hawks in the playoffs.
