I imagine theres more people in vancouver that want to see the flames than the avs though. Probably add 20 to those tickets.

Flames at Van, 120ish upper bowl.

Canucks-GAF, do you think the outcome would have been different with Schneider in net?

No. Luongo wasn't the issue. He was probably one of our best players out there. I'd say him and Weise were the ones that most came out to play.

 

[calder]

Playoff tickets will be absurdly expensive in Winnipeg, but I think I have a couple of seasons left to save up. West looks to be tougher and the central sure as shit doesn't look like the SE.

 

[Acid08]

Marleau is tied with JR for all time playoff goals now. Gutless.

 

[Ra\/en]

No. Luongo wasn't the issue. He was probably one of our best players out there. I'd say him and Weise were the ones that most came out to play.

That being said, I would like to see how the nucks would do with schneider as the starter. Hope he's well enough to start next game.

Agree with smiley here. It's fucking Roberto Luongo, he's a great tendy.


Just saw Sidney Crosby leaning on his jaw.

 

[Johnny Cage In The Shower]

Maan as a Leafs fan living in Vancouver, it sure has been a shitty day for hackey for this guy!

 

[Marvie_3]

Huh he did? Well another goal then.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

I don't think Kesler is 100%. It'll be a short series if he isn't.

 

[Heretic]

damnit, I want to be recognized as well!

jealous!

Good job warming the bench, dude!


P.S.
Post more.

I agree about Lou. Just wanted your opinions and such.

 

[Heretic]

Nope. Lou didn't cost us this game. But the team does tend to play better in front of Schneids.

Any idea why?

 

[Acid08]

Any idea why?

dat fragile Canucks psyche.

quadruple post!!!

T-T-T-T-T-T-TRIPLE POST.

On the question: Subjective impression based on past experiences. Not sure if there's much to it, but I share the same subjective impression.

[Coldnoodle]

Sharks win!

 

[calder]

Lol yeah a few minutes later I went ohhhh. And by a few minutes I mean a lot of minutes until I saw the play again on sportscentre. I blame age and a diffident education.

 

[Ra\/en]

Any idea why?

Maybe some folks believe Luongo =

I don't though. The entire team is to blame for this loss.

I end up in here late night, you guys are crazy in the off hours. I feel like a pack of rabid dogs starts chasing me at me every time I enter here late at night.

Sadly that time is over

 

[Sibylus]

2/3 of those goals I can't even comprehend. Is puck control in and around the crease ZERO?!

My soul is a broad canyon, and disappointment in the Canucks overfills it.

 

[Heretic]

misread

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

Everybody likes dstrdl. He's like the Teemu of this thread.

More like Taylor Hall, a bit of limelight but slowly becoming a piece of mouthy shit.

 

[Socreges]

I'm not concerned (yet). They weren't heavily outplayed despite looking unusually sloppy. The Sharks aren't half as scary as the Kings were last year. Mixing up the lines, sharper passing (even the Sedins had some awful, lazy passes), and hopefully bringing in Tanev could make a big difference.

Leaving already. :lol :lol

Shameful stuff, though beating the skytrain crowd on a work night could be the difference between getting home at 1130 and getting home at 1am so it's not so bad.

I like Heretic better.

nah, you're both alright!

Whineault complaining about cheating on faceoffs. Awesome.

How do you think he got the nickname Reboundo Luongo?

 

[Ra\/en]

How do you think he got the nickname Reboundo Luongo?

Yeah.. his rebounds are fat and juicy. Forces him to make big saves that he wouldn't have had to make if he just held onto it.

 

[RC]

I feel the need to vent on vent.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

SOMEBODY PUT A MIC IN THAT MANS FACE IMMEDIATELY

 

[Socreges]

What did Vigneault say, Whinid08?

 

[RC]

As per playoff loss tradition, I'm at a bar. Although to be fair, it's also a weekly tradition.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

So last night was "all the teams I wanted to win, won" and tonight was "all the teams I expected to win, won".

Good start to the yoffs.

Kind of sad, kind of not.

I know the Bruins are the better team, but then you always have hope.

No destiny bullshit from me, just hope.

Hope is a good motto for a lot of teams this year. Basically any team that isn't the Pens or Hawks.

Hey Quick I think I forgot to thank you for the avatar so thanks! I love it.

Also did you pick up Hawkguy today?

Easy there, fella. You said "Whigneault" which was cheese, so I just poked fun at you. But your sandy vagina shouldn't prevent you from answering the question.

No problem, anytime.

And yes, but I still haven't read it. Guess I have reading material on the train ride later. It's in my iPad ready to go.

 

[wsoxfan1214]

Is Hawkguy really that good? Have been on a comics/graphic novel kick lately and have some money.

 

[Acid08]

I've been pretty unsalty toward y'all all night. And I think my first post covered it pretty completely. He said we were cheating on faceoffs which is a pretty weird complaint. Faceoff antics are so common for every single team.

But whatever, I'm just stoked we got one on the road as I was fully expecting to be going to the Tank down 2 games.

And I said Whineault which is some pretty legit word play( "Whigneault" is pretty rad though) . But yeah, salt and stanchions blah blah blah.

It's the best new book in a long time. Fucking delightful vibe with great stories and a bit of legit drama. A lot of the issues are self contained stories. Pick up the first three issues. If you're not sold by #3 then it might not be your thing.

 

[Quick]

I picked it up thanks to the Hawkguy thread (thanks, Acid). It really hooks you in.

The writing and characters are awesome, and it's pretty fucking funny at the right (or wrong?) times.

No way for me to know that, right? I thought you might have paraphrased or missed some context. Anyway, the full quote made it online and doesn't sound nearly as bad (what I expected):

"They're second in the league in faceoffs, they have experience and cheat and that's part of the game."
