Great win tonight, but closer than it should have been. Miller stood on his head at times in this game, whereas Ramo gave up at least one softie, but that's to be expected when you haven't started a game in a month. He came up pretty big a couple times in the 3rd, so you have to give him credit.
Sickened by the Sedins tonight. That first dive should be suspension worthy. That's as blatant as it gets and if they're not at least fined I'll consider that new public shaming system completely useless. Not only that, but later when Stajan shoved one of them in front of the net "knocking him down" he goes and pulls the feet out from Stajan after the play is over. Not only dirty, but just as dangerous as a slough foot. Even though the Canucks have a few more respectable players on their team, as long as they employ the Sedins, Burrows, Bieksa, and guys like Kassian, they will get zero respect from me. Maybe it's too late. Maybe the cheap antics are now endemic to the team. So be it. The fans of that team match the personality of the players, and vice-versa. Edmonton might have a more historical rivalry, but I'd rather beat the Canucks any day of the week.
