Flaming out against Vancouver - GNT

[puckhead]

I stopped watching after two periods...Not a great hockey viewing night.

sorry bud. Flames didn't play that badly tonight.
they were tenacious.

avatar looks good, though.

That's what I thought, too.

10-1 against the division. That pace will win you the division any year. Gotta keep it up though. Not a bad birthday present.

you hit 100 on the rep-o-meter too.
weren't you at, like 70 yesterday?

I've got the Canucks logo ready, mattola.

Go Flames Go!

/also, Go Canada Go, 3-3 tie (nail biting time)

lol sorry man. the canucks actually didnt even look great tonight I guess that is the way it goes when everything goes well. the flames with 43 shots were not dominate at all. they just seemed to throw rubber at the net alot nothing really dangerous consistently.

edmonton next. Ive never been a part of this for the canucks so I dont know how to act

87, but Tox started the rep present party. Trying to get everybody back, but the 24 hour ban will make it take a few days.

so i go to nhl.com this morning

there it is front page ... not a single mention of the canucks not in the featured stories in the big box ... not in the smaller links on the right side in TOP HEADLINES ... just the score in the scoreboard crawl across the top ... I guess i need to scroll down and see Luongo as the top star last night

theyve won 7 straight and are 16-1-2 in their last 19 ... the ghey!

 

[jstewismybastardson]

ok its there now ... obviously they go to sleep at 10pm est

Well this game cheered me up after the blow-up in Buffalo.

A few dicey moments in our own zone in the third but for the first two periods the Canucks coverage in the defensive zone was excellent (or was it Bieksallent?).

Canucks saying all the right things after that win.

"We have to be careful now," said Daniel Sedin, who scored his team-leading 22nd goal. "I think we're starting to slip. "I don't think we played a good enough game. We need to get better."

"I don't think we had our best game by any measure," said Luongo. "We were outshot 2-1 by the Flames. "There are a couple of areas that we could be better at. We can address those issues while we are winning, not when things are going bad."

Wednesday marked the third time in four games Vancouver has been outshot and it's a trend that has Sedin concerned. "Right now we are probably focusing a little too much on the defensive side of the game," he said. "We're not putting enough pressure on teams. "We're playing a few good teams coming up. We need to get a lot better. A lot of teams have too many good players to give up 44 shots."

he added "uhhhh.... no offense to the Flames, or nothing' "

I am predicting the Wings put 85 or more shots on net Friday/Saturday combined.



Avatar bet on it anybody?
