I thought the Canucks mysteriously stopped skating in the second. It was like they collectively zoned out.
Yes, during one intermission they interviewed one of the Canucks players (don't recall which one), and he basically said the same thing.

Man the next two games are going to be nail biters. I sure hope they pull it off. I am really cheering for the Canucks and Vancouver, this would such a great thing!
Now, if they only had Phil Kessel.lol don't forget to thank the Leafs for giving the Bruins Kaberle. Between Kabs and Chara, the Canucks might actually have a shot at this thing.![]()
Now, if they only had Phil Kessel.
I meant that sincerely. Boston looks like they're in slow motion and could use some offense.
Actually, he started to come around late in the seaon. People forget how young he is. He's already good, and will only get better.
But nevermind that now.![]()
Unfrickin' real, TP........that has to be up there with one of the quickest OT goals. WAY TO GO, ALEX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe this kid should bite a few more fingers - only kidding - was he hot tonight or what. What a goal, what effort, what grace, was dedication!
ROCK ON CANUCKS - YOU GUYS ARE SOOOOOOOOOOO COOL! CONGRATULATIONS!
One of the Hockey Night hosts, might have been Mclean just said that Alex's goal was the second shortest ( by that I take quickest) in Stanley Cup history!
A number of Boston players just aren't working hard at all for whatever reason-all to the good for the Canucks since Chara can't so it all himself-try as he might.Boston looks like they're in slow motion and could use some offense.
If there is a game 5 it will be next Friday, and a buddy of mine and I need to be in Vancouver to prep for some Canadian Open Golf volunteer training sessions Saturday morning. We're concerned about our hotel situation. He booked a room but the hotel was kind of waffling afterward. If they do hold our reservation it is possible that they may put the price in the stratosphere. We will be doing the ferry by walk-on so we won't even have a car to sleep in if we get the boot. And if there is 100,000 people on the streets we can't even sleep there! Not sure where it's all headed for us but we'll have to go and find out.
___________________________________________________________________________________Ferraro kept going on about how Alex should have been suspended.
What he fails to understand is that there are many Canucks able to score that goal and had it not been Alex it could have well been Ryan or Daniel or Torre ...........well you get the drift.
I just hope I make it to the Cup without having a stroke. LOL!
GO, CANUCKS, GO! :canada:

I'm getting tired of ferraro droning on and on about burrows. since the playoffs started, there have
been other incidents where suspensions could have happened, and because nothing was disastrous, they
have let them go, they don't want to leave teams shorthanded during playoffs, and there was nothing
wrong with bergeron, he is 100% healthy.
apparantly boston is kicking up a real stink about the 'bite gate' incident. I would just say to them,
"do you need canucks to be short a player to get a victory, suck it up and play the whole team, just
as canucks are doing, or do you want a favour."
I'll bet when burrows touches the puck tomorrow, he will be bood big time.
I was delighted to see him score those goals, and also get an assist as well.
during the intermission before overtime, we were watching 'back to the future' (again), and kept
checking for the game to start, but when I checked it for the last time, it was over, we had to
sit there and wait for the replays, we just looked at each other, stunned.
the mounting frenzy and excitment in vancouver, (on the streets), and other areas too, is overwhelming,
and it brought tears to my eyes watching all of them, as I could just 'see' how they will be, 'if'
canucks do bring that cup home.
Just as I 'trash' the poor behavior of fans who threaten the players with anything and everything
because they don't 'SATISFY' they appetites for victory, I will cry in joy watching them celebrate
if it does come to pass, it will be glorious.
(but they might not, and life goes on, right?)
I wonder what bettman thinks when he watches all of those people out on the streets, peacefully
having a good time, its amazing to see, just amazing.
yeah, the stroke part, I now realize that all of my emotional reflex areas are
working just fine,
sweat, heat, red cheeks,palpitations and racing heart, adrenalin rushes constantly, loud voice,
gasping, jumping up and down involuntarily, high fives, (with someone else of course), i'm not totally wacked out, mouth hanging open, eyes big, grabbing my hair,
hands on head, flaberghasted, amazed, lump in throat, etc etc.
Burrows for Conn Smythe Trophy!
allright, i'm all for it, (at least right now) lol
an old fellow, at the 'ice cream' parlour in qualicum bay, started talking to us about burrows, (he
noticed the flag on our car), and of course, now he has first hand connections with burrows, because
a friend of his, met his dad, because his dad owned a lot beside the friends lot,and he actually said hi to burrows once, when he was visiting with
has dad at the friends house, "he's really a nice guy" he said, (it is amazing) how people can find a way to let you know, they know
a celebrity when the time is right. priceless., but nice.
Is that what is known as "name dropping"? :lol:
yeah, I guess, gee, maybe I should have asked for the fellows autograph lol
I was too busy eating my 'rum n raisin' ice cream, (a small one of course), no, really,
I bought a childs size, honest, i'm not fibbin.
Don't worry about it, I just love rum and raisin ice cream, even more than black cherry!
me too, and another favourite of mine is 'orange' ice cream, but I can't find it anywhere now.
and I like butter pecan too, and black cherry, i'll get that one next time.
