If the Canucks fail to win one of the next two games in Los Angeles, it will truly be the most epic collapse of the season's best regular season franchise in the MODERN HOCKEY ERA.

If Vancouver loses the series, I hope they are swept. That would be really funny.

 

[Entropia]

Kings in 4.

 

[Fixed1979]

There is no good reason. Vancouver is done. They would have to pull off a Jekyll and Hyde or something to win this series.

I just think that if they DO win the series, it will be with Schneider, not Lou.

It's not like we got destroyed that game, we were way ahead in shots/hits/faceoffs. Unfortunately all that maters is the score, hopefully there will be lots of work on special teams between now and Sunday as that's what's making the difference here. Anyway, completely disappointed...

Where's Kassian lol

I heard his name once or twice at the end of the second. AV has no faith.

 

[Revenant]

Where's Kassian lol

5:37 of ice time, so keeping everyone hydrated!

 

[MutFox]

You don't understand, Schneider has that thing, you know? Like it's just this intangible that will magically change everything.

my guess. Schneider is hung like a moose.

It's weird, but sometimes the rest of the team will plays better with Schneider in net...

 

[bishoptl]

my guess. Schneider is hung like a moose.

That would explain why Lucic's girlfriend has been Twitter-stalking him like mad.

Time to go play some Alpha Protocol.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

Today was a good hockey day, minus wanting Florida to win.

 

[Syph Medwes]

Where's Kassian lol

Surprisingly he actually screened Quick on that last goal. Chances are he just stumbled over there though haha

 

[Kave_Man]

Canucks lose!

I will cut you.

 

[Fixed1979]

I will cut you.

You have my sword.

There ya go! Somebody understands. You just have to put on a tinfoil hat for it to make sense.

 

[TheAtomicPile]

I could not be happier with tonight's results.

 

[Wendel Clark]

Surprisingly he actually screened Quick on that last goal. Chances are he just stumbled over there though haha

He's almost as tough as Lucic and Thornton!

 

[vatstep]

Funny playoffs are funny.

I expect the Canucks to tie up the series. As for the Pens... I doubt it.

 

[Smiley90]

but how... we get scored upon on the penalty kill, we get scored upon on the powerplay and we try to sit on luongo and give LA free goals on the 5on5. No idea how this is gonna work lol.

 

[snack]

It's a proven fact that redheads boost team morale.

 

[MutFox]

I wouldn't mind Daniel Sedin coming back during the series...

 

[railGUN]

Time to fuck up some noobs in FireFall - games about as unbalanced as this series.

 

[HadesGigas]

I wouldn't mind Daniel Sedin coming back during the series...

He'd better hurry up. There's only 2 games left in the series.

 

[Syph Medwes]

He's almost as tough as Lucic and Thornton!

Oh he's way past that at this point

 

[Choke on the Magic]

Presidents trophy is a curse.

 

[geeko]

Presidents trophy is a curse.

Yeah, reminds me of a couple years ago with the sharks....

*cringe*

@LAKings
We apologize in advance for anyone this tweet offends: #LAKings lead series 2-0

:lol good stuff.

 

[Smiley90]

:lol good stuff.

LOL SERIOUSLY? This shit's hilarious, whoever is in charge of their twitter feed is my personal hero.

 

[Marvie_3]

:lol good stuff.

Imagine if Philly had Pronger right now, game would have been 8-2.

or JVR and Meszaros

 

[Smiley90]

"The great thing about the weather in Vancouver is that it always feels like fall."

... I don't get it?

 

[UberTag]

... I don't get it?

The team notorious for diving would know a thing or two about "fall".

 

[yankeehater]

Imagine if Philly had Pronger right now, game would have been 8-2.

Or even just Mez, the D would be so much better with either guy. Oh well hopefully the Flyers find a way to win 2 more games.

Edit: Beaten by Rev.

 

[Revenant]

@LAKings are u really this cocky after 2 games? Just shows how ignorant u are. I cant wait for u to eat ur words, fucken F--! #gonucksgo !!!

LAKings STFU U F-----!! Its A 7 Game Series U BITCH!! PUSSY

:lol at some of the responses. Do people really take the time to trash talk PR accounts?

 

[Smiley90]

Ah. This game, if anything, Richards dived. Canucks were more disciplined in that regard.

 

[Ra\/en]

It always rains in Vancouver. Bitter tears?

Twitter and booze is a wondrous combination.

Fucking hell. Luongo finally starts showing up, and the people in front of him start collapsing. Hardworking as they are, there's really no kind way to put it. Backhand pass to a King, goal. Fall down on the powerplay, breakaway, goal. Three guys stand in front of the net and do little more than fall down to impede a wraparound. If they inexplicably pull Luongo for game 3 (are the people on TV deranged?) and put Schneider in, he isn't going to magically fix this sudden inability to abstain from horrendous gaffes. If the Canucks turn things around, and I goddamn hope they do, it'll be due to the realization that a President's Trophy is piss-poor compensation for a first round exit, and not some metaphysical Schneider Effect.

Series still isn't over and Tabris is as prominent tonight as our power play, so I guess there's the silver lining in all this mess.

 

[snack]

Vancouver is a cole, cole world...

Canucks will still make this a series. Vancouver in 6 games baby!

Onto the next one.

 

[Ra\/en]

and not some metaphysical Schneider Effect.

You had me until this. .

He has mystical redhead powers. Just wait.

Wait for it, if they pull Luongo and win everyone's gonna say it's because of Schneider, and if they keep losing everyone's gonna say it's because they didn't pull Luongo. Vancouver media makes no sense like that.

 

[wsoxfan1214]

I'm pretty impartial to the Canucks, but knowing Tabris is crying himself to sleep with his Daniel blow up doll pleases me greatly.

:lol :lol :lol

Glad to see the Nucks failing. Don't want to see these punks win anything.

 

[SpectreFire]

:lol :lol :lol

Oh hey, you're back.

 

[bardia]

LA Kings twitter is hilarious

 

[wsoxfan1214]

All of the slashes, diving, etc.

Can't root for that damn team. Maybe if they played Jersey. That's it.

Dates may have ears, but skates don't.

If he's playing poorly, there's at least rationale. Calling for him to be pulled when he's playing well, that's just dogheadfoodprocessor material. I do not fucking comprehend!

So Nucks-GAF, where are you drowning your sorrows tonight? I'm going to the met.

 

[Ra\/en]

So Nucks-GAF, where are you drowning your sorrows tonight? I'm going to the met.

I ran out of alcohol. This is a bad night.

 

[bardia]

So Nucks-GAF, where are you drowning your sorrows tonight? I'm going to the met.

Oh god, enjoy dying of heat due to the lack of AC

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Riot in April? It'll work.

Some co-workers invited me to watch the game with them. I took a raincheck. Maybe I should've went. More alcohol than at home.

 

[Sibylus]

Venting on le Gaf and shortly curling up under the covers. With any luck I won't be possessed by vivid dreams of taking a grater to Tabris' head and eating his face in soup.
