UPDATES: Wow. The Canucks confirmed they offered Dan Cloutier a tryout contract. Wellwood does have the flu and is a game time decision. Stop sharing veggie dips with Rypien! Shirokov, who is rooming with Samuelsson, was told to relax by his new buddy. Good for you, Sammy.
UPDATE: Mikael Samuelsson talks about his leadership role and chemistry with Ryan Kesler at the Province. Great read, and reason to feel optimistic about him.
UPDATE: Kyle Wellwood missed practice on Monday and it has not been revealed what his injury is yet. Ryan Johnson took his spot between Steve Bernier and Mason Raymond while Tanner Glass centered Darcy Hordichuk and Rick Rypien.
Just a heads up to those of you who don't know: the Canucks-Avalanche game starts at 12:00 PST Saturday.
The Canucks will look to bring a more consistent effort from nearly the whole squad after a disappointing start to the season against the Flames that inevitably contributed to their death.
Colorado played an emotional game last night after Joe Sakic's number was raised to the rafters. The team responded by pounding on the Sharks 5-2. That game had a similar stench to it as the Canucks game. The Sharks came on late, including outshooting the Avalanche 19-1 in the 3rd period but were stymied by new Avalanche goaltender Craig Anderson, who was the games' first star, and is picking up where he left off in Florida last year. Looks like Peter Budaj could be taking a back seat to this guy.
It's another game against a division rival. The Canucks will need to get used to all the new faces on their roster, and that will take some time. While they're doing that, the Avalanche are going to come out on fire on home ice.
This will be the game thread for the event. I'll continually post updates at the top of this post as they happen.
GAME TIME: 12:00 PST
TV: Sportsnet Pacific
THE ENEMY: Mile High Hockey
"In Edmonton, he called me for diving," Burrows said. "[Tonight] he got me for hooking when I thought I got his stick. Sometimes you just have to tell them they're cute and refereed a good game and next game maybe he'll give you one."

I'm from the states
and it’s football season.
Also, I live in LA where Hockey doesn’t exist… despite the fact that they have two professional teams in the area. Still, I love me some Canucks hockey!
Any new guys I should pay attention to? I hear we have a kick ass rookie, but I don’t know his name.
Shirokov is the rookie’s name. I live in LA too and I hate the ducks, probably because of all the bitter games we have played against them…
We are all Canucks.

Welcome, zeehjee! The Canucks need to pull together as a group right now with all the new faces. High expectations on this Canucks team, so it’s going to be a long season emotionally.

Yo....LA Canuckleheads
We have a little event going on for the Kings/Canucks game in LA on Oct. 29th.
Check the link for more info:

Basically cheep tix and entrance to the Hip concert across the street after the game.
THAT IS AMAZING!!!
I would happily pay $36 for either a Canucks ticket or a Hip ticket. In Canada you can’t get either for less than $60. What a 2 for 1 deal!
Almost makes me tempted to fly to Cali just for that… sadly that would stretch my student loans a tad too thin :(

nice article about samuelsson, sammy looks pretty intense when he’s playing so i agree him and kesler are a good fit. they just need another second-line talent and that line should be good to go.
That could certainly be Shirokov
Once the shock of playing Calgary wears off! Colorado should be… gentler to his system. 8)
I think that 3rd player will be Demitra when he returns
by Sean Zandberg on Oct 3, 2009 2:51 AM PDT up reply actions
Samuelsson is pretty intense, and has a tendency to wind up in the middle of scrums quite often. I referred to him as possibly the world’s crankiest Swede when he was a Red Wing. Streaky as hell, but when he’s on he’s a wonderful player. Just be patient with Sammy. :)

I have zero faith in Sammy. Detroit fans warned us about him when we got him. Ups and downs. Hot and cold. I think we can expect that of him.
by Sean Zandberg on Oct 3, 2009 2:52 AM PDT up reply actions
OK, not ZERO faith…but I think I know what to expect..which is streakiness
by Sean Zandberg on Oct 3, 2009 3:00 AM PDT up reply actions
So… you have low expectations in his consistency?
by thelastjohnny on Oct 3, 2009 3:03 AM PDT up reply actions
I mean..his stats don’t lie. He may score 25 goals max.
by Sean Zandberg on Oct 3, 2009 3:06 AM PDT up reply actions
There are a lot of factors that come into play, time on ice, games played, power play time, and linemates.
However, that being said, 25 goals would be the high end of my expectations of him as well.
by thelastjohnny on Oct 3, 2009 4:52 AM PDT up reply actions
So Samuelsson is like Katy Perry?
“He’s hot then he’s cold, he’s yes then he’s no…”
by nucksandpucks on Oct 3, 2009 8:16 AM PDT up reply actions
yes :)
He is prone to droughts, but when he gets on a good streak he can score seemingly at will for a while. And he is never hesitant to shoot, at least.
"For myself I am an optimist - it does not seem to be much use being anything else." -- Winston S. Churchill
If he plays on the 2nd line or greater all year, I would like to see some consistency and 60 points minimum
by Sean Zandberg on Oct 3, 2009 11:12 AM PDT up reply actions
He's capable of more
if he’s playing with the twins especially since they are great playmakers and he LOVES to shoot and has a good shot. He is also very big and strong, solid as a tree.
He does have a tendancy to make some bad giveaways at times and/or get out of position defensively, as he did in the finals last year.
He was a 3rd liner with the Wings and 3rd string PP where he usually played the point, doubt you’ll see him do that much in Van with all the shooters we have on D and lack of scorers up front, so he could get a pile of PP goals.
They offered Cloutier WHAT?!
That’s it, Mike starts drinking. There’s no god. The sky is falling. Cats and dogs, living together. So on and so forth.

Hope this one ends differently than the last one.
4-1 Canucks
H Sedin, Bieksa, Kesler, Hordichuk
Sakic’s Jersey
Hahaha, yeah I think the ghost of Sakic is good for at least 20 goals this year. Someone’s gotta score for the Avs, right? And to think, no one picked Sakic’s Jersey in the pool!

There is a pay site you could use as a last resort, if you can’t find any other feed. www dot hockeystreams dot com offers access just for one day for $4.99, so it isn’t a season-long investment if you just need one game. Pretty decent quality, too.

-nucks and avalanche (GO CANUCKS GO!!!!!!!)
-washington and toronto (it’s not often i get to watch ovechkin play, and it’s also on cbc, so don cherry might be getting on his case)
-calgary and edmonton (just to see how truly pathetic the “battle of alberta” has become)

Wait, does the game start in an hour? How did I do the math wrong, I really didn’t want to get up at the wrong time.
Okay, someone had daylight savings happen and it looks like it was me. Thanks for the notice, everyone who actually knew it was going to happen.

10:00 am (pacific): 1 game
12:00 pm: 2 games
4:00 pm: 8 games (holy fuck!!!!!)
5:00 pm: 1 game (which means, at this time, there will be a whopping 9 NHL games in progress!!!)

Fact is that we have a great team this year. They dominated in Calgary for 40 mins, they have played an okay game today. A few bounces against and some ridiculous saves by andersson have made the difference.
My biggest beef with the team today is the lack of a crashing 4th line. Hordichuk was useless last year, and he looks even slower this year.
Point taken on the 4th line banger/crasher/energy stuff
But if I’m analyzing the past two games, Darcy Hordichuk is not high on my list of issues. In fact, he’s not top five and probably not top ten.
Great from the preseason won’t mean much if this is the results when it matters. It’s nice they dominated Calgary for two periods, but they haven’t even played with the lead yet in six periods. They aren’t starting games with any sort of passion or discipline and it’s now cost them four points.
If they are losing because they are simply outmatched, so be it. But they’ve been their own worse enemies two games straight (which was their exact problem last year). That’s ridiculous and they deserve to be raked over the coals for it.

You define OK games by being undisciplined & shutout? Anderson didn’t steal this by a long shot. Not taking anything away from him, he was solid as rock. But he’s facing a team that, let’s face it, is playing pretty hapless hockey.

They have to be WAY better, but they played well today. Good enough that if this game was replayed 10 times, the nucks win 7 of 10 with that effort.

Anyways, things are gonna get better soon, so whatever.
A good evening to you all.
It was probably most frustrating watching the Avs capitalize and the Nucks unable to, either due to bad bounces or general bumbling, too many odd-man breaks and watching them speed around our defense like they’re standing still.
