The scheduling has been messed up for a long time now. I remember the good old days when each conference plays on alternate days. So every team gets one day off in between games. None of this back to back and 2 day breaks in between. Canucks didn't even get a Saturday game this series.
And I don't know why Montreal's schedule was so slow, and now they have game 6 and 7 back to back.
Sucks that Canucks' can't even get a 2 day break before their first game.

| Because hockey is second fiddle to the NBA and the Celtics are in the playoffs.

Henrik getting a little cocky post-game:
“They had no business being in the series,” Sedin said. “We outplayed them badly for five games.”
"Henrik: We were the best team in five games. They had no business being in this series"
Repeated multiple times in the interviews, apparently Daniel said it too.

Does anyone have more insight on the canucks vs preds? All I hear is that is going to be a grinder low scoring series. Is this the case?
It is just hard to get out of the blackhawk mindset after so many years lol.

I think tomorrow's game is going to be very straight forward. Play the obvious basics. Once the team gets a feel for what the Pred's are doing and how to adapt, it should get more exciting.
I'm sure they're still going to be in Hawk-kill mode, which might not be a bad thing since the defence was so good in the last 2 games. Also, the Preds might not have as good an answer to the Sedin's as the Hawks so maybe they can pick up their game. We've also got momentum on our side.

Watching the feed on Versus, Rogers Arena was extremely loud, atmosphere was great, rivalling the Bell Centre. While at the same exact time on the CBC feed, Rogers Arena was really quite. NBC, Versus and TSN production wise >>>>>>>>>>>CBC.
A few players really stepped up their games for game 7 last night, noticeable Kesler, Burrows, Luongo, Hansen, Hamhuis, Higgins, Lapierre and Oreskovich. What I found extremely disturbing was the Sedins, while they had a couple good shifts and weren’t horrible, there was absolutely no urgency to their game and were extremely soft on the puck. Oh and again, Kesler, wow what a beast! |
Totally agree. Seems like the Sedins are still in regular season mode. The positive spin is that our team can still get better.
Love how we played aggressive all game. The D held the line and closed the gap. The forwards supported and back-checked. Also, loved Lu's demeanor all game. Now someone please put some krazy glue in his glove hand. Haha. Quote:

Preds have 4 lines that can score. They have depth up and down their roster. They have some incredible defense that's almost as good as ours, along with arguably one of the best goalies in the league currently.

Why do I get the feeling we'll be facing 3 bitter players that we didn't retain from last year's team?
Chicago - Ryan Johnson
Nashville - Shane O'Brien Assuming San Jose - Kyle Wellwood
All three of these players said shit how the Canucks don't have success in the post-season etc...
