This was a very exciting hockey game. far too many penalties,(a few stupid
ones), but doesn't matter, nail biter,
and schneider played out of his mind, what a guy.

kesler has slipped a bit, still playing very hard, good defense, but he
is shooting far too much, low quality shots, and seems to be confused
because they don't go in any more, he needs to reevalutate his game and
get back to basics.
He is looking like the train wreck that he used to be, trying too hard,
and making his game worse, (offensively)

Two excellent teams who could possibly meet in the playoffs.

calgary on saturday.

GO CANUCKS GO

Corey has been a great addition to the team. I think he has taken a lot of weight off Luongo and given confidence to the team.

for sure, he isn't really a back up at all, he'll be a starter for a team soon.

he'll be a great goalie for years in the NHL, just wish canucks could keep him,
but he needs his own team.

I'm afraid you're right. He most likely won't be here next year. Hope we can get some good assets for him.

How about this Canucks media blast from the past..

Al Davidson was the voice of Vancouver sports for years. Check out his team. Jim Hughson and Jim Robson looking pretty young and 70's-ish.

Well, will the Nucks make it 5 or 5 tonight? You know Calgary will be firing on all cylinders. Should be a good game if the Canucks aren't too tired.

If kipprusoff is 'on', as usual, it will be difficult, luongo will have to match him, not an easy
task.

that blast from the past is amazing, didn't really recognize al davidson, did he ever age into
something rather sleezy and wierd, even mixed up in some shooting, or am I not remembering correctly.

where did that time go.

Yeah, I remember Davidson was mixed up in some sort of skulduggery, just can't for the life of me remember what it was. Is he still alive?

He was caught beside a burning boat with a can of gas in his hand.

They couldn't prove he'd torched his boat so he was acquitted but his insurance company never paid out.

He died some time ago-never having regained any stature or long term employment in local radio circles.

yeah that was it, no murders or such, but he sure looked silly and guilty.

canucks had to do everything tonight, spotted the flames two goals, then proceeded to 'play'catch up, then
played to get the lead, then played to protect the lead, a very solid intelligent team.

kind of a nice road trip, me thinks.

GO CANUCKS GO
