Canucks searching for a Road Win - Canucks @ Oilers GNT

[mattola]

canucks got into their beds past 2am. hope the morning skate was a lil later...

we need this win we need that first road win

the Return of Burrows tonight... Tamby sent down

The Sedin boys are licking their chops...They usually have big games against the Oil in Edmonton (I think there was one game either last year or two years ago where they combined for nine points).

Too bad Ripper isn't in the lineup - I guess Huggy Bear will have to find another dance partner.

 

[Automattic]

Did somebody say dance...

 

[naslundfan19]

Exact same lineup as last night, save Burr replacing Tamby.

If EDM can stay out of the penalty box and win face offs they can win this. But they won't.

 

[puckhead]

pretty sloppy game early.
Sedins look good in their first shifts. that's always a good sign.

Hall seems to try to do too much by himself.

Smid is sneaky dirty...

 

[naslundfan19]

Burrows looks like he hasn't missed any time

 

[dash]

Hemsky enters the Ballard 'Tunnel of Death' - Nice hip check.

 

[naslundfan19]

Ballard lowers the boom

 

[puckhead]

Burrows looks like he hasn't missed any time

apparently he's been ready for about a week, but was held out until LTIR time elapsed.
Ballard with the good old fashioned hipcheck. like to see that.

Bobby Lou flashes the glove and robs the kid...

 

[Automattic]

that was kinda funny...

 

[Automattic]

Bieksa getting dumped,that is.

 

[dash]

Burrows stoned by the Bulin wall (great feed from a robot).

 

[naslundfan19]

Lou just needs to play. Back to back games seem to agree with him so far, as long as one of them isn't in Minny.

 

[dash]

Slap-pass beauty on the PP (robot to robot)

1-0 (D. Sedin)

 

[naslundfan19]

2 strikes!

 

[dash]

What a shift by Torres and rewarded with a goal.

2-0 Vancity

 

[Automattic]

I was about to say Torres should of had one right after, but he scored anyway before I could type...
