(1) Vancouver Canucks vs (8) Chicago Blackhawks - Series Thread

[mattola]

No confirmation yet, but rumour has it tonight's officials at Rogers Arena are Paul Devorski and Steve Kosari. Of the current crop, I think they got two of the better ones (especially Devorski).

yeah they have been talking this since yesterday. I think team 1040 confirmed it with their sources so I believe it. Im ok with this as well.

GAME DAY

in all seriousness. Let the Best team Win.... and hope its clean and a hard fought hockey game.


whats funny about this game.

- if we lose it will define Luongo's remaining years
- if we win Luongo will still be judged harshly in the next round

transcript of Gillis' rant

Mike Gillis, unplugged


he makes a good case.

lol @ Burrows: "As a kid I played a lot of game 7's in my basement. So hopefully that experience comes through"



also, Ballard back in for Salo.
Glass back in for Hodgson... hopefully that means a HITTING FIRST game plan.

Do the zebras put away the whistles tonight?!? If the Canucks play like they did in game six, they should win.

just for matt and puck - Good Sedin karma tonight.

 

[mattola]

was just told that the canucks went to take their pre game skate today. the score of 5-0 from the last home game was still on the board...

on purpose?


Im not sure but I like it. a reminder. a motivator.

GO CANUCKS GO

 

[The Q stache]

I need some good karma as well

I need some good karma as well

Game 7 of the SCF in 1994 was when one of my worst nightmares came true. I was counting on Pavel Bure & the Canucks to make things right in the World.

Unfortunately they FAILED.

Luongo has the opportunity tonight to answer the critics. However, if the Canucks lose he'll be TOAST in the media throughout the hockey world. The Blackhawks are in his head. I like their chances tonight.

Question: Does AV get canned if the Hawks win tonight?

Yes, but after a cooling off period of a couple of weeks...

Question: Does Coach Q get fired if the Hawks lose tonight?
