i love detroit's puck possession style of play. it always seems like its so hard to defend against them. passes are always tape-to-tape and the level of confidence they have as a team and as an organization is excellent. they also don't get down on themselves when they get scored on, they instead do everything in their power to change the game in their favour. sigh... let's hope the canucks can turn pull out a win tonight! go nucks!

dump-ins suck. carry it in, shoot shoot shoot, then fucking crash the net to get that rebound and shovel it in. we need more people in front of the net. how many times has a goalie let a rebound out and there's no one by the net to pounce on puck?
gah. it's frustrating to watch them, home team and all.

When you shoot the puck as hard as they do you give up control over your shot. Besides pucks bouncing off end boards can give good chances too Posted via RS Mobile | |

gah. it's frustrating to watch them, home team and all. | They're trying. But it's not like they a have sizeable forward like Holmstrom or Byfuglien type of player that can park it in front of the net that yields noticeable success.
With the departure of Pyatt, the best it's gonna get is D. Sedin, Burrows, or Bernier (who actually got smaller this year; but at least he's faster now)  | |

CBC just showed a clip of PJ meeting Naslund and Forsberg in Sweden. Not sure why the PJ guy is in Sweden but something to do with 120 days?

the leafs are actually outplaying calgary badly right now. shots were like 25-10 and leafs are spending a huge amount of time attacking.
you can't really be a canucks fan if you don't want the flames to lose, now can you?  | |

i think we're due for a win, 3 losses shouldn't sit too well with the boys. especially with the effort put in at detroit and getting nothing out of it.
