Game Thread: Vancouver to Bure the Leafs

[puckhead]

Pavel getting his jersey retired tonight
and one of the awards (most exciting player?) being named for him.


a couple of trends are at odds tonight
- Nucks are 10-0-0 against the Leafs in the shootout era
- Leafs have a PDO > 104 this season.

a) Leafs are "due" in the long term in this match-up, but
B) have been exceptionally lucky so far this year, and that's got to come back to earth.




the good news, we get Hughson instead of Mark Lee

Pavel in langley today signing autographs at a show

I think its$94 per autograph

Valeri bure there too ... $15
Kirk mclean ... Free
Kirk cameron ... He pays you $10

Lol great thread title

Go Canucks

 

[Cobiemonster]

Should be a good game and a good celebration of Pavel Bure's career - I think the Canucks win this game

 

[dash]

I just hope Leafs fans can restrain themselves from chanting "Go Leafs Go" during the Bure jersey retirement...

...but you have to listen to him preach on about the earth being only 6000 years old.

Will Candace Cameron Bure be there?

That would be prickish. After that though, fair game.

I don't think they've won in Van City since '03?

Yup, I agree. I expect them to be even louder than they were at the Saddledome on Wednesday night.

And it's not like Canucks nation doesn't invade the ACC from time to time.

/ticket prices must be outrageous for this one.

I hope tonight's game goes to a shootout - Who doesn't want to see Raymond use the spin-a-rama on Bobby Lou?

Would be great

Perfect scenario ... Raymond ... Skates in ... FALLS DOWN .... Is promptly traded to the flames ... Feaster signs him to a 5 year 30 million dollar contract extension

4 times face value is the going rate

Geez. I paid 92 bucks from ticketmaster a couple of years ago to see the Leafs and those were the lowest priced ones to be had. So about $350 per ticket for nose bleeds then? Eeeep!
