No GDT yet?
Canucks visit the City of (ex) Champions, look for the Sedins to have another big night.
I havn't heard, but I'm guessing Schneider tonight?

KevinsInGoal tweeted Schneids gets the start tonight, he's pretty reliable on goalie related matters.

I'm predicting a loss.
Toronto one day, Edmonton the next day.
That's a hard travel.
Plus, there's bound to be a bit of a let down from beating the Laughs.

It makes sense. This would be his 22nd game, then there are 3 more back-to-back sets, so he could get the Devils *(after Luongo vs Detroit) then 2 more starts from Hawks/Stars pair and Stars/Flames pair.

The GDT's of late reflect the level of excitement that both the team and the fans have for the regular season. It's all about the playoffs now. This is definitely uncharted waters for Canucks fans.....following a team that is good enough to be coasting through the regular season as a top 3 team overall where it is really not worth getting up anymore unless it's for a Stanley Cup.
I expect this will be a close game, we always give the Oiler's life when we shouldn't, and we never seem to take them seriously until they've burned us a couple times.....and then it's a dog fight to eek out a couple of points. The only guy that ever shows up at the first puck drop for games against Edmonton is our goalie (either/or).

it's a really weird situation, I can't remember a season where the rest of our division was so bad that only 1 team made the playoffs. (though Calgary's in now - barely)

It's a one hour flight.
8-1 Canucks.

LOL it's an hour and change in the air. These pricks don't wait in lines at the airport like we do. If that's an excuse that's pretty sad.

For some strange reason I thought the Saturday night game was in Toronto. Oops.

7 minutes played, 2 points each.
Henrik now back up to 4th in the scoring race.
(Too bad there's no more games against the Laffs

)

I have no idea what counts as kicking the puck in anymore.

Mike Murphy has determined that although there was no distinct kicking motion, there was still a kicking motion - or at least Malhotra once thought about kicking something - and therefore, no goal! And he adds that the Kings look like they'll make the playoffs this year, sweet.

It's a great day for hockey!

That's OK - nobody in Toronto does, either.
