Lulz me and a buddy almost got into a fight after rhe game because some clowns were basically saying if it wasn't for lack/if it was Lu it would have been over already, then when we said yea it's all Lu's fault buddy challenging us cause we weren't wearing jerseys :/ Posted via RS Mobile
The Canucks better get a top 6 forward that can score or else, Canucks fans are going to blame it on luongo
Yep, Luongo needs to pitch shutouts and get on the scoresheet, all while he's injured!

Crosby is stupid sick, got there to watch the warm up and his stick handling is amazing, he was literally standing inside the net pulling pucks out and shelfing them one handed
It's funny cause most people who haven't played don't even know how much a puck weighs or how hard it is to pick up off the ice, the way sid handles the puck is jaw dropping so it wasn't much of a surprise when he's standing there open and scores lol

I wonder what's the deal with the tape job. And I wonder if he's using a weighted stick. Perhaps the coil is a weight around the stick.
SO MANY QUESTIONS.
It's only a matter of time before I see this whipped out during ASHL/Ice604 warmups.
^ Yes there was a feature years back about how he picked up a straight blade from his younger times and stuck with it in order to have a backhand threat.
i'm not saying lack is the reason we lost the game.... he made some great saves in the 2nd and in OT.... but those last 2 just looked like very make-able saves (glove side with view of shooter, and the other crosby took it off his foot so i thought he should have had time to slide over)
i'm not raggin' on the guy
I was at the game, 15 rows up behind Lack I was literally staring at Crosby when he had the open net; Crosby had so much time there was no chance Eddie was going to make that save. Third goal, yeah I think maybe he should've had that one.
It was an interesting game to watch though. In the first, my friend and I thought the Canucks might get blown out. They kept things interesting in the second, then after the tying goal (which, imho, was a lucky goal) they just turned it on. Kassian's goal was great, he looked so happy after scoring. But that's all she wrote b/c this recent collapse is now history.

He used that backhand yesterday, it was quite impressive.
Lundqvist should be up there soon also by the time his new contract is over, the cap hit is big but it's the term that's going to be a problem 8.5m for 7 years starting next season he's already 32 years old maybe he still will be playing at 39 but probably not like the highest paid goalie like he is right now.
As much as I like Lundqvist and NYR it kind of looks like the next Redden, Drury or Gomez contract.
Just canceled my GCL subscription got fed up with all the BS of GCL gonna try hockeystreams
Edler (knee) is taking part in the Canucks full practice today.
Edler has missed five weeks with a knee injury, but appears close to returning to the lineup. The Canucks are off tonight, but are back in action tomorrow. Edler definitely seems like a possibility for Friday's game. Monitor his status during tomorrow's morning skate.
