I hope the Canucks send the SmugHawks golfing...

It's going to be Chicago in five, unfortunately.

Me too dash... me too.

I'm happy for the rematch, and the chance to avenge last year's loss. We were just over a minute from going up 3 games to 1 until one turnover cost the Nucks game 4.

Kane's gonna slap Luongo like a cab driver without change.

I didn't think this Esls playoff pool through enough. I picked players from the 4 teams I thought would be in the conference finals. I didn't consider 2 of them might meet up before the finals though...damn

Lets go Hawks, even if you don't win make to game 7 for me cause I got tickets. I'd rather you just win though.

Amazing how the Sharks winning screws everything up eh? lol

lol, yeah, I didn't count on that

Should be a good Series. I'm rooting for the "underdog" Nucks. I think it'll go to 7!

This will be tough, goes at least 6, probably 7. All I can say is thank goodness Bobby Lou looks to be himself right now.

+a whole bunch. This is going to be a war from the opening puck drop.
there's a lot of back blood from those dirty rotten Hawks from last year.

I don't think so. Nucks have been stewing over this one for a whole year.
And our offense is right there with the Hawks' this year.
Hawks are probably favourites in the series, but I can guarantee it won't be easy.

The only way the hawks win in 5 is if the Canucks take one large collective dump on the ice. this series has 7 games written all over it.

Thanks, D!

Nucks in 6. Their depth shows up in the series.

 

[jstewismybastardson]

At least this time around the Canucks arent gonna have to wait 14 days for round 2 and they faced some adversity from their first round opponent

The series boils down to this for me. Who is biggest missing element from last years series

Chicago: Khabibulin
Vancouver: Willie Mitchell

 

[postmaster]

I can't wait for this matchup.
Should be a hell of a series.

I'm not saying the Nucks won't win, but the Hawks havee alot of depth as well.

Key additions as well:
Chicago: Hossa
Vancouver: Sammy

Do the robots continue killing penalties?

to me Hossa and Havlat are a wash

if you want to look at additions, Ehrhoff is an obvious upgrade. When not shirtless in limos, Madden can still play shutdown

Ryan Johnson is probable for game 3 but I think you have to still give the Sedins more pk time. They have always come out for the last 20 seconds of pk so I say you just bump that time up a bit

Yup, he's been a great addition, as has the emergence of one Alexander Edler. He's been hitting like a freight train in addition to having a cannon from the point on the PP.
