| By the way, Daniel got a 10 at the end of the game for "abusive language". Like he gives a fuck. |

I feel bad for AV because I liked him but looks like he's good as gone, he'll probably exit with Gillis who I won't miss. This was a painful season to watch; the team never really looked good and basically got into the playoffs because of a weak division. I think all Canucks fans will agree that scoring has always been a issue since the cup lost, before it was masked by good defense and great goaltending at times but cracks showed up last season and nothing was done.
I'm still cautious to see what changes are made this summer, but this sweep is basically rock bottom for a team that was once sitting at the top of the NHL a couple seasons ago so if changes aren't made this summer than you got to look at the owners and ask yourself if these guys are fit to run a NHL team. |

And imo, Luongo is the only one that deserves to retire here. Maybe Kes and Burr... we'll see. Luongo has been nothing but pure class this season and playoff, and I think he deserves better. Ballard too, if anyone still remembers him.

Wingels clearly doesn't belong in the NHL if he's getting knocked down that easily. Twice.

So you approve of those things? | Diving and embellishing works, doesn't it? So long as you are good at it....Sharks got all these fucking PP's from doing that all series.....Like I said, you do what it takes to win...If the refs are stupid enough to get fooled by that shit, then by all means, go ahead and do it.....You telling me that if we won by fooling the refs by diving and shit, you'd be upset? You'd be like no, let's give this cup to our opponents, they showed more class than us....right, okay...

dL | I would also like to see Luongo stay.
I cant say Schneider is a bad goalie but hes definitely not proven as a world class elite goalie yet. Probably easier for MG/whoever to move Schneider too.

No less by Daniel Sedin. Seriously, that's a joke. If it was someone like Lapierre, Alberts, Kesler, WHOEVER else, I understand. But DANIEL FUCKING SEDIN? Former Art Ross winner, can't hit the smallest guys in the league? Mind blowing.

A win is a win. No one's going to be saying shit if you're hoisting the Cup.
Play at the very limits of the rule. That goes without saying in business, school, or sports.

everyone is crying about the PP's. i agree that SJ got a lot of calls and certainly some questionable but the canucks did nothing to help them get more calls either. you usually get more PP chances when you are skating and competing hard which SJ brought it every game. unfortunately for 2 years in a row, the canucks decided it would be more fun to start doing that from game 4.

I think it is pretty evident to everybody out in the world by now that the Canucks, for the majority of the time, play pure class and are not cheaters. If we still are, then we are REALLY BAD at cheating and embellishing.
Fact? 24 to 10. You know what those numbers mean.
I still believe in playing classy. Yea, cup is important, but if you win it like Boston style, I rather not take it.

Gillis butt hurt tactics hurt the franchise by not resigning players who fans would wish he paid more for them to stay. Hockey is a game of momentum when you have no body creating it (erhoff fast puck movement/ slapshot bomb, torres hits and clutch goals) it's an emotionless team.
SJ moved clowe and aquire torres because hes a big game player. Seen during oilers and nucks run. Go Canucks go! |

If that were the only goal, send out your goons to take a swing at Pavelski/Thornton/Marleau's heads in game 1 to take them out of the series. Then do the same to Niemi and Greiss too. Then you're facing a minor league lineup with a 3rd string goalie. Then you'd win for sure, right? Is that acceptable?
Diving is for pussies who can't play for real, and use trickery to try and gain an advantage. Hell, it's not even that it works. If it's caught, you get a penalty for doing it!

As for 'diving is for pussies'...Sure...I'm sure the Sharks give a flying fuck about that when they just advanced to the next round, while selling calls all series by embellishing...

And to anyone who says the Sedins "don't care", you're a fucking idiot. Daniel Sedin goes down the hallway after he gets ejected, snaps his stick numerous times, cursing non stop and throws it down the hall.
I truly DO believe we can with the Sedins on our team. It's Gillis' job to create a team that has a strong supporting cast, offering real secondary scoring. Our team this year and last was pretty much shut down the Sedins, and no one else can score. Give us a legitimate second line.
Oh yeah, apparently Daniel's penalty was a violent "shove"? What the fuck? It was shoulder to shoulder. Quote:
Farhan Lalji @FarhanLaljiTSN 12m
Referee Kelly Sutherland on Daniel call: Deemed it a violent shove into the boards where the player couldn't defend himself from the hit.

It's an extreme example, but it's still to prove a point -- even outside the written rules of the game, I would think there's "unwritten" rules about how it should be played. This isn't soccer. Imagine if people in the NHL faked injuries the way people do in soccer. It would ruin the sport, IMO
