Henrik has 1 goal in his last 16 games, while Daniel has 1 in his last 9. Gotta be concerning if you're a Canuck fan.

That's just this season. You can add in a sweep against the Sharks, getting outscored 15-8 in 4 games in the playoffs last year. They also lost their last two regular season games against the Cali teams last season.

That's 1 win in their last 17 games against the Golden State.

Didn't see the game, probably for the best. How the hell does a 7 minute 5-3 occur?

That last game that the Nucks gave up 9 goals Bertuzzi became the most hated man in hockey.

Is there a fan base out there that has less actual hockey knowledge than Canuck fans? I don't know if it's the sea air or their yoga pants are too tight, but as whole, they don't know their a** from a hole in the ground. A hole that was dug by the referees in order to screw them.

That HF forum is epic. Did any of them bother to notice that the score was 7-1 when the 7 minute 5 on 3 happened? So, you know, totally irrelevant to the outcome...

Having lived out there many Canuck fans have a serious victim complex, so its really not even remotely surprising that they believe the refs are targeting the Canucks for playing like goons. Or that somehow a seven minute 5 on 3 when the game was out of hand has anything to do with the final score.

Fact is they once again got within inches of hoisting the Cup, lost, rioted, and likely won't be getting back for 10 or more years. The delusions from that fanbase will only grow in the coming years.

Yep and best players getting deeper into their 30's every day. We've seen the same act play out in Calgary.

Why do they have the need to punch people in the back of the head when losing badly. They are lucky no one broke their neck this time.

Sestito and Hansen taking their penalties:



Honestly, I think Sestito also deserved another game misconduct for being an aggressor, as well as a suspension because that dude is completely out of control right now.

Hansen was a little unlucky, but only because his opponent probably deserved a minor for roughing. So the Canuck fans have a small case, but only insofar as Anaheim deserved a 5-minute five-on-three rather than 7 minutes.

Also, Vancouver is lucky that the Ducks (ironic for a team with Corey Perry) showed a lot of class in that long powerplay. With seven minutes of 5-on-3 time against a demoralized opponent with a weak-ass goaltender in net, Anaheim had a legitimate shot at tying or breaking the NHL record of 16 goals in one game if they felt inclined to take major offence at Sestito and Hansen's actions.

I guess raining down punches at a guy down on the ice is just Sestito following the code again.
