LOL yep!

What makes matters even worse is that even in 2011 when they actually won a few games, they were only winning games by taking advantage of injury riddled teams in Chicago, Nashville, and especially San Jose!

Canucks haven't really truly won a playoff home game since 2010 against the Kings who weren't even really the Kings at the time as guys like Doughty, Quick, etc., developed into major superstars a few years later.

Where can I get a good shift chart for the game?

It just hit me how big of a bender I'm about to go on.

Saw this on TSN. Facebook illustrates which team each part of Canada is rooting for in the 2015 playoffs.

I think this is a bit deceptive though. My guess is since there are more people in the Lower Mainland than there are in Calgary, especially that have moved to areas like Northern Alberta and Saskatchewan, it skews the results somewhat.

There is no way most people in Saskatchewan and Manitoba are cheering for the Canucks over the Flames.

I really hope he can play, Ferland would sure be upset if he can't play.

I find it hard to believe that most of Canada would be cheering to Van, they are hated everywhere.

[GioforPM]

It's many levels of amusement to vists the canucks board. I learned that Sven (they like to call him "Bae") should be called up for offense and because they lose nothing in grit compared to Higgins. Mainly because he held off Musil in Edmonton. That he will score for sure and that he drives the net and makes super smart plays. He's a better Grabner. He makes Sedin like passes. He was either in the arena or they got a guy who looks like him to sit to play mind games with the Flames. LOL

I learned that Matthias is bigger but softer than Mason Raymond (it may or may not be true but it's funny).

I learned the Sedins needed 3 more minutes and they would have for sure scored. I learned the tying goal should have been offside because the Flames didn't tag up but it wasn't because the Canucks touched the puck (that's not right twice over).

[CorsiHockeyLeague]

They're complaining the tying goal should have been offside? I didn't think it left the zone. Surprised they went with THAT as their complaint...

Lots of Flames fans in Saskatoon. Been a fan since relocation to CGY. Even cheered for the Calgary Cowboys.

Apparently my PC cannot load the chat box while quoting someone.

Corsi: The puck left the zone and went back in but the players all checked up and negated the offside on that goal. Stajan came real close to touching the puck for an offside though.

[GioforPM]

Stajan did a tight curl so his feet came out, but his stick was always close to the puck. As soon as he tagged he connected with the puck so deflected to Ferland. Really smart and aggresive - lots of guys just tag and wait outside to try to hinder the zone exit.

Oh, it did then, I thought you meant on the ensuing play where the Canuck player tried to clear it.

I'm surprised they're not whining about the high stick Ward was talking about, is my point. Seems like that would be right up the westcoast conspiracy theorist alley.
