PrintLos Angeles Kings at Vancouver Canucks, Nov 26, 2009 7:00 PM PST
By the time you'll be reading this, I will have (a) eaten a lot of meat and - thanks to the magic of tryptophan - likely passed out in the coat closet; (b) endured more than one conversation about how I am not wearing the right clothing to a family event or become an unwilling participant in some medical ailment conversation that should never be talked about over a meal; (c) will have found my only alcoholic beverage options are either Corona or Corona Light; and (d) will have watched the Detroit Lions lose 100-2.
So what better time to reference 300?
Not that I would have forgotten we have a hockey game to attend to, a clash between third place teams in their respective divisions and an opponent we last saw a few weeks ago when Vancouver edged out the Kings 2-1 in the shootout during Facepalm's first game in net. Certainly not. I expect a motivated Vancouver team, especially after their last loss to Chicago. I expect a win. And I expect Rick Rypien to fight Raitis Ivanans even though he really shouldn't be.
"This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this. I'm not your King...". Damn straight. Here's your game thread ladies and gentlemen.

Hahaha, I’m very anti-Manning/Broncos fan. Marshall’s catch was sick.
Oh look, Manning got sacked again.
Seriously, new york is getting blown out here. Marshall just made another sick catch.

We also met a lusty fellow in a forest road with a keg of whisky slung round him who called to us 'Come boys and have some grog, I'm what you call a canuck"
hey, it’s not that we’re cheap, it’s that we can’t afford it (for example, i’m a university student)

Someone predicted 3-0 Nucks with Burrows getting the first and therefore the game winner. Good start.

Nice play by the Twins on that one.
Lets make it 2-0 on the PP…put a tired team down.

Around here that can be like asking “who’s Spartacus!”
The opposite of serious is not funny; the opposite of serious is unserious.
i don’t know who that is either (although i’ve heard the name before)

Hollywood hotties are always the arbiters of hockey proficiency.

MORINDOO!
Let’s get the attack going, kids!

Plus the composite bows plus the ability to live off the land (thru their horses, flesh and milk) for indefinite periods plus their mobile corps of “build it on the fly” engineers that obviated the need for siege trains.
Those were the days….
The opposite of serious is not funny; the opposite of serious is unserious.
Oh, and plus their meritocracy a.o.t. the old aristocracy (temujin himself made that change; hated the aristocrats). Big one, that.
The opposite of serious is not funny; the opposite of serious is unserious.
Sorry to make your brain hurt.

Well…not to beat on him too bad…that was more a bad break…puck was rolling…Welly does look snakebit though

He is not snakebit he is just bad. Time to sent him off on a long trip to the farm.

Welly bad, Nucks Dzone coverage bad, Luongo very good. Does that about cover it?
I've seen enough to know that I've seen too much.
Decisions, decisions...
I have both Quick and Luongo in one of the pools, and I went with Lou for this game. They better not prove me wrong!
HANK!!!!

Dartmouth for him.
Good Grief.
Darmouth’s motto is “A voice crying in the wilderness”? Wow. That must make for a real intimidating cheer!
Cornell’s the “Big Red”. Harvard’s the “Crimson”. Brown is the “Bears”, making them the “Brown Bears”.

I do believe...
…there was some skepticism when I mentioned Mr. Quick as a pool pick earlier this year…?
i was talking with my friends saying that I’d really like to work the vegas odds

I will gladly give up my Wizard status ( I picked 3-1) to see Welly get a goal. Can you believe the standing O for an empty netter?

And it only took three cracks at an EMPTY net. What a player.

Despite the 2nd period fail, that was one of the more enjoyable Canucks games I’ve attended. That third period was a hootenany with all the Wellwood will-he or won’t-we drama, as well as the overall strong play by our boys in blue.
