GDT: R2G3 - Canucks host Hawks - 6:30pm - CBC, VS

Post by Cornuck »

Ok - we got the split. We have to happy with that, since we're the underdogs, have non-imposing road record and did it in one of the toughest arenas.

Now we have home ice, I think that AV is a much better coach at home, and the team will play a little tougher than it did in game 2. Rome & Johnson seem ready to go, but no word if they draw in tonight.

Let's take these home games and then bitchslap the Hawks in their own rink for game 5 (*yes, I'm looking ahead).


GO CANUCKS GO!

Kesler's getting to Bertuzzi levels of flippancy with the media... and I couldn't be more proud of him.

Tonight may well be the series, so a win would be much appreciated.

A win is always appreciated but game 5 will decide the series, so it doesn't matter who'll win tonight, just make it sure we get a split after game 4...just like last year.

If not win both homes and the deciding game will be also game 5. :lol: What a theory !

Go Canucks VGoooooo

hmm .. ok.. Its our turf.. defend it and make them pay .. no more mr nice guy..
Can see it all now.. "Canucks come out fast and fighting.. Rypien to Hansen = goal 1.. Twins do the magic act.. Samuelsson gets his #9 goal.. 2 - 0 Canucks.. Bieksa trips on his own stick knocking Luongo on his butt.. Buttfugin gets a goal :( 2 - 1.. Kesler line scores a quick on as Burrows messes up the Finn goaltender.. .. Goes into the 3rd.. 3 -1.. Demitra on a rush scores with a rising slap shot.. 4 -1..

Last 2 minutes of play.. AV puts out Rypien , kessler , Bernier , SOB and Bieksa.. Rypien on the face off smacks Eager in the yap.. while Kessler bitch slaps Ladd.. Bernier heads for Hawgs net.. looks like he's tripped.. but does a somersault.. landing with both skates on the goaltender.. SOB pushes Buttfugin into Luongo's crease.. where he is greeted by a goaltenders stick in his butt... Bieksa squares off the Burris.. in front of the Vancouver bench.. Bench gets into the fun.. using the Hawk as a substitute for a puck .. :).. AV does not even argue the 5 on 3 .. Hawks get 1 more goal just as the whistle blows end of game
:) ... OK OK>> GUY CAN DREAM? :) "

seriously I'd like to see the Canucks play a lot tougher game .. and think they can win..
4 - 1 Canucks.

Hansen has some great jump tonight. Nice effort on Whalewood to draw that penalty. Not much else brewing for my liking so far.
GO CANUCKS GO !!!

Niemi is outstanding and lucky as the same time. The Canucks have had some poor shot selection in the first. Should be a 3-2 Canucks game right now. Gotta love Daniel's gusto tonight.
