And for those that think we're doomed even if we win this series, nope. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. If it is mental and we get through this, then that will make us stronger for the rest of the playoffs.
Definitely concur.

I'm usually the last one to admit this, but I'm getting this feeling, too. With our talent-level, how can we not be properly prepared mentally and tactically for this Hawks team? :|
I questioned shaking up a winning lineup as well. Why? Just tell Torres he'll get his chance when the team has a poor outing. Why the hate-on for Ballard? He is completely underutilized and has been all season long. How is Rome a better forward option than Oreskovich? I don't get any of these moves to be honest. Forget the players, I think Q is getting in AV's head.

My only beef with your post is that if anything, AV has always been to reactive as a coach. Remember all those irritating line shifts of years past? I don't think Q has anything to do with it.

For goodness sakes why all the panic! Canucks in 6 was a very realistic goal and guess what, it's going to be Canucks in 6! I'm glad I don't know some of you nervous nellies in real life.

Its called years and years of watching this movie. No one would be down here if the team had shown up, worked hard & lost. If in fact they do have the flu (which it sounds like they do) then that would explain alot. However since the Canucks haven't discussed that one is left to naturally assume they've been mailing it in for 2 games.

Exactly, there's a difference between losing and losing. My prediction was 4:2 in this series too but not that way.... There's a reason why all fans really have a cause to panic because if they're keepin' on this no-show it'll be 4:3 Chi.
