Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

yikes Luongo usually shuts the door when the Canucks are a goal behind...especially at home...the slump is real.

4-2

Houston we have life.....3-2 and goals by 2 unlikely sources....Isbister and Linden.

Anyone willing to part with Edler for Sundin ? - that's the latest rumor coming out of Toronto.

Detroit will push hard for the Swede and Burke has said his 2 first rounders are available.

May the best GM win. Within reason.

I have to say as much as this team missed Ohlund they will find that no Willie Mitchell in the lineup might be even worse.

Luongo's mini slump continues with 3 goals on 9 shots... looks like the home team will go 0-3 vs the NHL's worst team. Shades of a few years ago when the Canucks missed the playoffs thanks to 4 losses to a very poor Blues team.

21-12 shots after 2...they cant generate any quality chances. other than a short flurry in the first. If the Nucks dont win their division they might have to play this Sharks team in the first round. OUCH!... they own the Canucks...only team in the league that can make that claim. Guts you go Alex O...

dont re sign morrison or naslund theres your 9 mill they will yank kesler bieksa and schnieder 2 #1s id do it. what about sundin this year? what would that take...sedin sedin sundin the d's around the league will be spinning just from the names....so will the poor broadcasters. kesler scneider#1 pick

I don't normally make a pre game statement or a pre game pick...today I'll make both as I will be eating Lobster tonight at a reunion. The Oilers are a deadly team to meet right now. They are skating as well as any team in the league right now. We saw what speed did to the Canucks in the San Jose ga...

Whats the old saying? .......... Speed kills!

Sanford needs to think about a poke check or two.

As good as Sanford has played this season, I think he tends to play a tad deep in the net.

This smells like an offensive shutout.

3rd period shots 16 to 1.... Prevent defense...we see it all the time in the NFL when a teams up by a couple touchdowns...sometimes it works. It worked tonight for Vancouver. The best 2 players on the ice tonight were Curtis Sanford who was quick to grab up his rebounds and always found a way to fac...

Those 2 kids looked like Marcel Dionne and Charlie Simmer on that 2 on 1.

OK 4-1 it was...I got carried away watching the 2 rooks do their Hull and Oates rendition.

There is that better? lol

When the Canucks are undermanned and riddled with injuries they seem to respond with an extra effort I'm sure no one predicted. Especially Linden is God Ducks 4-1 oops!

The 2 rookies combining for the Canucks first goal looked liked Trottier and Bossy for God sakes. Very impressive boys. I expected the Ducks to come out pounding the injury riddled Canucks. This doesn't seem to be the same Ducks squad that beat the Nuck's 4-0 in last seasons playoffs. Forget the tal...

Kesler has a great wrist shot off the rush...his speed allows him room to get it off...add to that it's deadly accurate....what a combination.

Great game.... dont always need 6 goals.

I agree good for Cooke ... by the way I never knew Burrows was that fast. Saw him just zooming up the ice in the second. Sedin Line looks like they could score every shift the past 12 mins.
