the boys looked tired ... wasnt even that happy after they finished the game
there's not much reason to be super happy for winning a single game in a seven game series. this is the "business" attitude the canucks have been showing all season. 1 down, 3 to go. go canucks!

-Bieksa on who is guess was on who the new team Captain would be at the beginning of the season.
“It’s state of the art,” said defenceman Kevin Bieksa. “They went above and beyond here and did a great job. I also think they did some research into the circular shape and found that, if you don’t have a square room, you can’t put Darcy Hordichuk in a corner.”
-on why the new canucks dressing room is circular
“We have already talked about him starting his playoff beard,” Bieksa said. “He still kind of has that puberty beard going. He’s going to need a good week to jump-start it and hopefully he’ll be up to par.”
-Bieksa on Keith Ballard.
“I snuck some Red Bull into his Powerade before the game.”

"Well I got the puck right here so..it's going on eBay tomorrow!"
-on how much Burrows' game winner against the blackhawks in Game 7 will mean to the franchise
I thought it was a great game but then again I'm drunk. The Canucks controlled the play played great in the nutrael zone and were not caught running around in their own zone. One big thing was I wasn't really worried until the last 2mins of the game. No matter what its a great start to the series and if we play like this getting shots on Rinne we will be going to the next round for the first time since 94.
Man, Bieksa's comments are golden. I can't decide which is best.

"That's Because I do"
