lol....so u at the game then...pls update on the finer things we dont see from the couch?

cant wait to see spideys posts...haha

my wife has agreed to watch and support our team instead of me going to another room and yelling and screaming all by myself. we going to town for supplies for the party of 2...

getting pumped. but must admit i am nervous...

Game 1 nosebleeds. I will see much, but it's the no alcohol zone so I'll be surrounded by a mob of towel-stealing six year olds. Only place I could find three seats together and then the Canucks come out with the "friends and family" package that could have put me lower bowl for less than I paid up top. This better be worth it.

No alcohol zone? At a playoff game? Surrounded by children?

Honestly, that sounds like a personal hell for me. :lol:

But by all means enjoy.

There are no playgrounds within 100 meters of any seat in Rogers Arena, so I think I'm good.

Kesler didn't practice and had a bandage wrapped around his forearm this morning.

Oh, and tonight will be the first ever leaves game broadcasted in High-Def. LOL.

Ebbett? Fuck me. Otherwise Daddy like.

Really would feel better with Tanev in there instead of a completely green rookie as well. Hopefully by game 3.

We have a big advantage on the Sharks on the back end. And we DID have one in net as well. :(

Up front we're pretty evenly matched, both teams superb down the middle.

Hey if second lines match up, Kassian will have an opportunity to explain things to Burns early...

So if Schneider was healthy we'd have just under 10 million bucks, one sixth of our entire payroll, wearing a baseball cap or sitting in the press box (Ballard and Luongo).

Nice cap usage there.

Is Ballard really not a better fourth-line option than Ebbett? At least he's physical.

Apparently Schroeder is hurt. I could see him playing on the wing in Ebbett's spot as well, but I doubt AV can.

Good God Kesler, stop being so fragile!

They need to switch Higgins and Raymond, particularly if Kesler is hurt again.

As for Ballard, he must have done something wrong, like run over AV's puppy, or maybe he stole his playoff towel (very bad). Whatever it was I'd better not speculate, or the forum will be shuttered for good.

Luongo has a point to make.

Time to turn on the light switch.
Less Canucks embarrassment please.

Hopefully it's not the red light behind him.
