GDT: Canucks @ Avalanche - 19:00PST, CBC HNiC

[porp]

Were just laying back, hiding our power play secrets so when we hit the playoffs nobody knows whether to shit or go blind...

I sure hope you're right.

Seconded, only it's me who's admitting to have been ing.

[mathonwy]

If you don't elevate, you don't accumulate.

Sage words...

I stop paying attention and the Nucks score two. Whatevs.

[Uncle dans leg]

How'd u like that sexy little backpass from Pahlsson to Higgy for the goal?
Sound defence AND vision? Huh... I can see how a complete player trumps a one dimensional one come
playoffs...especially in the 3C slot.

Not to toot my own horn but anyone notice how as the game goes on the Avs are slowly losing the dominant forecheck? You just cannot maintain that level of pressure for an entire game.

[Jovocop]

So Colorado player jumps at Tanev. Vancouver gets the penalty.

Welcome to the NHL! Midgets are allowed to jumped taller players...

Rope a dope eh?

I like the cut of your jib.

[dhabums]

Ok.. here's a crazy idea.

Decline the power play.

Rather than decline, take the 5 on 4 and immediately slash the best PKer on the ice across the ankle or wrist.

[dhabums]

Anyone else disappointed they had to stop complaining about the game after we got 2 quick ones?

Lapierre with the winner.

I'm a bit disappointed that I have to keep paying attention because of the 2 quick ones.

I checked out mid way through the 2nd period.

Hahahaha...ya no doubt. I think this team has figured out what picking your battles means.

How bout face?


Canucks need five points to clinch second in the West. So we go 2-5-1 from here on out should do it!

Face might get you 4 or 5 mins and stitches only take 10 minutes. A broken wrist is the end of the season.

Higgins intercepted his dump in?

Or ankle.. Matty Ohlund style.



Sigh, I miss seeing Ohlund stand up the opponent at the blue line.

Edler does that from time to time but not enough for my liking.

[porp]

Ok, Kassian definitely looks bigger on TV than from the nosebleeds at WhateverPlace. Moves well for a big guy.
