get drivers license number canucks card id.
Shouldn't be worried about season ticket holders doing that because if they do you can call canucks ticket line and tell them the situation they will investigate to see if the season ticket holder abusing their status and can go on from there

If we lose today and Rome makes a costly mistake, we better be seeing Ballard in game 7. Obviously that shit about him scaring AV by hiding in his cabinet full of gum is bullshit, how's a grown man gonna fit inside a cabinet full of gum? lol, there's gotta be something more to it that we don't know about

I'm HOPING they win tonight and I'll snag the tickets after the game. At least that's the plan.
Thanks for the tips flip and PornMaster. I'm meeting them at a home address and will be sure to get a copy of their ID in case they try to screw me. Prices aren't a STEAL but they're reasonable for lower bowl.
I'd thank you Porn but I see you have the same problem as me... no Thanks button |

I had one guy go as far as asking for confirmation that payment has gone through on my account and I do have that printed out in case. It's a lot of money and I can see the buyer being worried.

Tanev is playing in Manitoba.
Ballard being scratched is understandable, but I would rather play Alberts over Rome. I will say it again: Aaron Rome can't make a pass to save his life. Alberts can at least make a play with the puck other than chipping it off the glass.
The temperature in Nashville is 32 C and the humidty is bad. The ice will be horrible by game time and the puck will be tough to settle down. Posted via RS Mobile |

The players said after their morning that the ice was terrible.
Dehumidifiers can only do so much. If the humidity is at 90%, it's going to have an impact inside one way or another. Posted via RS Mobile |

Once you put the crowd inside that arena the ice is going to turn into slush, should be interesting.

Whatever, it cuts both ways so it's still not an excuse. They're still the better team and the expectation is still that they come out on top. Posted via RS Mobile |

^ The Canucks have outplayed Nashville in over 80% of the series. Nashville is in the series due to some lucky bounces. The hockey gods are doing their thing again and with bad ice, it wouldn't surprise me to see another bounce or two go Nashville's way. Posted via RS Mobile |

So how many own-goals does Edler have on Luongo this year? Pretty sure he's had at least 2 or 3 really unlucky bounces (i.e. not just deflections) that ended up behind Luongo.
In fact wasn't there some quote earlier in the year about Luongo and Schneider joking around saying who will break his shutout streak, and Luongo put his bets on Edler?
Edit found it: http://www.calgaryherald.com/sports/...808/story.html Quote:
"Me and Schneids had a pool after the second," Luongo said. "Who would break the shutout? He said (Antti Miettinen). I said (Alex) Edler.

Posted via RS Mobile | I had a convo with a co-worker this morning about the series and said the exact same thing. Canucks NEED to end the series tonight or else we're in for a big shock when Nashville wins the series in 7.
Their goalie has been playing red hot for them all series long so all it takes is one lucky bounce and we're done. Posted via RS Mobile |

We outplayed Nashville heavily last night, but that own-goal by Edler was the turning point, IMO, that put Nashville back in the game.

the good thing is, we've figured out how to score on Rinne. the only thing we need now is for Nashville's collective luck to run out.
oh and fuck you Joel Ward! |

oh and fuck you Joel Ward! | Figured out and actually doing it is two different things. But I can tell u this. The sedins haven't fugues out rinne. You can't shoot at a big goalie with no screen.
