As for the faith, I dont have the same "feeling" as I did about our chances last year, but you have to admit we have more depth. Added to the fact that Cory has proven himself in some big games vs tough opponents, we know our goaltending will be solid should Lu struggle at some point. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall many maintenance games last year either. I also have a sneaky feeling that Daniel is more ready than the organization will admit.
The Canucks took last year as a learning experience and are seemingly more prepared for the grind. Like I said, I'm not as confident as I was last year but we're still a very strong contender and I very much like our chances.
GO NUCKS!!!!

that pretty much sums up my feelings exactly. if the last 10 games or so have been an indication of anything, the canucks are trying to win without relying so heavily on the powerplay. hopefully the 7 game win streak they had put together is a sign of good things to come in the playoffs. if not, i won't be surprised if they don't make the cup final. it would suck total ass, but it wouldn't be a surprise unfortunately
