oh yeah i was at the airport today around 2pm wearing my canucks jersey and a lady working there told me the canucks team arrived around 11:30am giving some fans autograph.
so Burrows has obviously had a bit of a hot hand lately (well, at least as much as anyone on the team can be considered "hot" at the moment). I can't understand why AV hasn't tried putting him back with the Sedins to try and get their game jumpstarted.
Because Burrows / Kesler have been playing great together. AV won't mess with a good thing until he has to. Which in this case, means either Kes or Burr will have to go a little cold, then he'll go back to shake things up. Posted via RS Mobile
they should put hodgson with the sedins.. and i am not even kidding.. it is known that most players can play with the sedins and they should put him up there... scratch sammie.. he obviosuly is hurt or just in a huge suck slump right now.. at least hodgson will add some speed lost when burrs got taken away from that line.

from ratings and media stand point, sure people can say all they want. they have the right to say whatever and have their point of view.. with that said, it doesn't mean I don't have the right to scrutinize their critiques and to speak my mind. Most analysts are idiots. I don't know how most analysts can confidently speak their mind when they have never played the game themselves. Even the guys on the team 1040 are morons. Aside from guys like ray Ferraro and 1 or 2 guys from the panel on tsn/sportsnet/cbc, no one knows what the fuck they are talking about. if you haven't played the game, I'm sorry, you don't know shit. I realize they are bringing up topics etc to get people riled up and for ratings. But I still have the right to call them idiots.
I totally agree. Probably most the ppl who post in this thread have never even stepped on the ice either.
The only comments from commentators n such I actually like to listen to is Pierre Mcguire. You can actually tell he's played hockey.

Yup, I was watching TSN and they interviewed some of the players at the airport and there was a small crowd of fans getting autographs. Also you can find out media information like what time the team is leaving by calling into the media line.
mcguire is SO annoying, one of the absolute worst IMO. Goes off on tangents that make no sense, won't shut up about composite sticks breaking, etc.
It's a fact that composite sticks break more than wood ones and you lose a lot in feel. The only good thing about composite sticks is that allow mediocre players to shoot the puck far harder than they would otherwise (myself included.)
Rinne is human and he won't be able to keep up this godly shit for too long if we keep getting good scoring chances. With that being said the Sedins need to get the puck behind the net a few times.
TSN panel said the Canucks need a lucky bounce to get into his head, that's what happen during the Ducks series so lets see what happens in game 3.
For some reason I'm not overly stressed about this series as I was with the Hawks series. The Canucks are the better team, we would have won game 2 but it look like the team was exhausted and out of gas. I'm confident that we'll win this series.

Pierre Mcguire is one of the most biased and overbearing commentators/analysts I've ever heard. The guy's a complete moron.

I agree. Burrows had plenty of success with the Sedins and we have to get them going. Kess is such a one man machine doing everything right that he will be fine no matter who you put with him.
I am glad the Canucks have 2 days to rest. They can regroup and get their offense going in game 3.
So the game tomorrow in Nashville is starting at 6pm PST as well... looks like they compromised both ways. We start our games an hour earlier than usual, and they start their games an hour later than usual...
Wow, playoff tickets in Nashville are two-three times less expensive than Vancouver.
Balcony = $73 vs. $250!!!
No love for hockey down south?
Ya, I have two friends headed there tomorrow for games 3 and 4. $110 for lowerbowl.

Some of the things Mcguire says makes him sound homo too.
