You mean the guy who worked three Vancouver pre-season games and didn't give the Canucks a powerplay? Torts making friends with the zebras early.

Kesler says, "Turn me loose, Torts, turn me loose"

if you believe the "rumo(u)rs", Kesler is actually less about hockey passion and more about working for the weekend

[jstewismybastardson]

last night on the 6pm Global newscast ... they did a bumper before going to commercial about the story after the break

Chris Gailus (in his big booming anchorman voice): "and we talk to John Tortorella ... about ALL those Stanley Cup expectations"


what? from where?

what? from where?

Ryan Kesler?

Ryan Kesler?

this team has already set up itself for non stop mockery. im going to do a 10 game prediction before even seeing the first game

4-5-1 GF 19 GAA 30

at San Jose Loss 5-1 blow out
vs Edmonton Loss 4-2 we hear that fucking horn 4 times in the 3rd period
at Calgary Win 3-1 sorry dash its calgary
vs New Jersey Loss 2-0 Corey stops 38 shots and Luongo lets in 2 goals on 17 shots
vs San Jose Loss 4-2 We lose to a backup
vs Montreal SOL 4-3 Luongos best game of the year and the team just flat out does little in the turd
at Philadelphia Win 3-2 Keslers Best Game of the year and then he feels he has done enough
at Buffalo SOWin 2-1 70s cousins take it to the shootout
at Pittsburgh Loss 4-1 Crosby with the 4 point night
at Columbus SOwin 4-3 bob gets 40 saves
RELEASE THE PANIC


funny think is I think I would be happy with this to start the season as they get to know the new system

Yeah it's a bit early. Luongo is usually a slow starter, but who knows all the pressure is off him now. He can relax & just have fun playing the game. He's the guy. There's nobody else behind him to worry about. I see this as a good thing for Roberto & the Canucks.
