Why would OTT trade us Heater for Lou ..? They picked up Pascal for a reason and besides Lou is way more valuable to this team than Heater considering Cory isn't proven yet.

Man, relax. It was a joke. BUT Lou is not as valuable as everyone says he is. There are at least a few goalies that I would have on my team over Lou.
Turco - Any goalie that is good, and supreme at puck handling is the best. How many goalies can make crease to blue passes, tape to tape everytime. Hes like a 3rd D man. 5 guys break out while he makes the pass.
Steve Mason - A young goalie (Like Cory S.) who was givin the #1 in his rookie year and exploded
Tim Tomas - 09 Vezna winner. Case and point.
Martin Brochu - Damn I miss him...

You can blame it on the plan AV took or you could blame it on Mitchell playing the puck to the boards instead of down the middle which was wide open. One mistake and Chicago jumped on it, kudos to them for capitalizing. Swept by Detroit? This is playoff hockey, anything can happen. Our team was built to handle teams like Detroit, SJ, Calgary etc, just shows how much faith you really do have in this team though.

I thought MG biggest mistake was leaving AV in. He is average, and loses respect from his players. If we had won game 4 (I AM NOT BLAMING WILLE MITCHELL) I would not of called him a "genius", more like lucky fucking bastard. Weak coach. Weak team.
Oh and Henrik. Fuck Henrik. I hope they go to Toronto. If we sign them for 6+ years (I know they want 12) god help us.
Just in case you think I a BW jumper... my dads been a season ticket holder since the late 80's, and I basically grew up with them. One time when i was 5 or 6 the Canucks lost in the PC and the place was going nuts. Everyone was super rowdy. I guess one of the trainers was on his way out, and saw me almost get trampled (my dad was oblivously holding my hand) he came over, held my other hand and i noticed that it was freezing cold. I was little and thought nothing, just as we were close to the door i looked up at him and he gave me a big smile and let go of my hand. I looked down and saw that there was a puck in my hand. He gave me the game puck
. I still remember what he looked like. I have been on the Canucks wagon since I can remember and will be till the end.
