That game they deserved to win- they dominated overtime until the last second. Even if they win game 7 it's going to tough to go to the next round within a day or two.
yeah they sure did deserve to win. all 3 goals for chicago were gifts. two giveaways by schneider,
and the 3rd was that slighty 'overkill' check from hamhuis, don't know why he had to flip the guy
over, could have just held him up a bit, and let schneider make the save or not, then it would only
have been a penalty, not a penalty shot.
the chicago coaching staff and players know as we speak they fell into a bucket of 'slop' and came
out smelling like a rose tonight.
I feel sorry for the guys, they played great. Its kind of funny, games 4 and 5 were lost because the
skaters were 'feeble', goalie was good, this game was lost because of the goalie, and the team was
tops, schneider made some great stops, but the mistakes were rookie mistakes, and he will learn from
them for sure, but they sure cost the team tonight.
I really like the changes vineault made with the lines, hope he leaves them like that.
I wonder who will come in as back-up next game, because by the look of schneider he probably has a
groin injury, won't be 100% in two days, Eddie Lak is playing for manitoba in their playoffs, and
he has done great all year, so I guess he will be called up.
If we play same next game, without the goalie slip-ups, (luongo would not have done those giveaways),
we will win game 7. Chicago couldn't match our team tonight, we had to give them the goals, for
them to get the win, so thats the way I see it.
update: after reviewing the winning goal, it was a bad rebound by luongo,
very soft I'm afraid, but in all fairness to him, coming in cold, he looked
unready, and the 'game should have been long over by then', he should not have
had to play at all, but thats life, bad rebound.
GO CANUCKS GO
