Canucks vs Stars Game Thread
Vancouver Canucks at Dallas Stars, Nov 6, 2009 5:30 PM PST
UPDATE: 5:05 PM PST: According to the Province, Shane O'Brien may slot into the lineup and Mathieu Schneider will sit. Guess they really don't want to pay MS his games-played bonuses.....
This test for the Canucks will be even greater than last night's game. First of all, we'll see if fatigue sets in as the game wears along, as this is a back-to-back game scenario for Vancouver. I thought the Canucks were junk in the 2nd game of BTB games, but I did a bit of research and they have a 7-6-1 record in this scenario (regular season) since the beginning of last season.
My biggest concern is in goal, where Cory Schneider will get his first start of the season. He has only played in the 3rd period in the Ducks game this season, where they scored 3 goals on him in 12 shots. From what I recall, he wasn't getting much help from his mates, and Joffrey Lupul pulled off that insane bank job off the boards to fool the kid, who went behind the net to play what he thought was a dump in.
Schneider's stats from last year don't do much to instill much confidence in me. See below:
More after the jump...
I remember several times last year where Schneider just wasn't good enough and the team in front of him hung him out to dry. That's why goalie stats like the ones above can be misleading. The Canucks have been playing super in front of Raycroft (minus the Ducks game). Can they do that for our red-headed little buddy? That will be the key to the game.
The Stars are coming off a disturbing and controversial loss to the Flames, where in overtime the linesmen totally gaffed on a delay of game call. The Flames scored seconds later to win it. I watched the game. It was a terrible break for Dallas. I expect the Stars to come out flying tonight and put that loss behind them.
I had a chance to have a quick chat with ESPN blogger Richard Durrett (Stars blogger) this morning about the Canucks. His piece on that can be found here.
No death metal image tonight, folks. I'm changing it up for one night only (maybe) to cater to the non-bangers.
To the tune: "Yellow" by Coldplay

You invoked Coldplay?!?
Fuck, we’re going to get blown up and we’ll have seven more injuries.

Seriously, I can’t think of a band I dislike more. Though I did just tell a coworker I would go to a Coldplay concert before a Bon Jovi one. It’s like comparing explosive, Indian dinner diarrhea to just normal “I drank the water in Mexico” diarrhea.

That bad huh? I can respect Coldplay’s music and their ability. I’ll admit it. My musical taste is so eclectic. Beethoven is next!

No I’m cool with eclectic too. But sometimes I have to call shit shit…and those guys are just unlistenable to me. IMO. And I’m a snob about this sort of thing so I used to being a lone voice in the room.

I almost didn’t want to post because I didn’t want to break up the nice little convo you two had going. But I have to defend Coldplay. Great band. I am into the whole English rock type stuff. You know The Kooks and Arctic Monkeys and all that. And of course Coldplay. Seen them in concert at least twice maybe more and I have to say they are all great musicians and put on one hell of a good live show. Still haven’t seen anyone live that has topped Elton John though. EJ is still the man.
As I said, I am used to being the lone voice. I can’t stand them, I’d rather listen to a dentist’s drill.

I think no matter what your taste in music we can ALL agree that Luciano Pavarotti and Frank Sinatra are both equally the man.
Not a fan of either’s music, but neither bother me either. I would have loved to have had a highball with Frank though. I used to live in his hometown…people still love him there.

So, being its the Stars…I have to ask…Nonis was going to get Brunnstrom before he got axed…and MG just said “MEH” to him…are we glad he is not here?
Starts out on the 4th line tonight. 1 goal, 6 assists, and he had 17 and 12 all last year.

How many times have you seen a game, especially back to back, where the road team is a little tepid in the 1st.
Schneider did his job…you can bet AV will be on the guys to play more like the first 5 than the last 15.

The goal was scored against Kesler's line again, the same in last night's game.
Did that line run out of gas already? I know that Sameulson can be a defense liability, but Kesler is supposed to be good defensively.
In the battle of the strong, victory goes to the brave.
I think the whole team, other than CS, is running on empty tonite. I can only hope they step it up for one last push in the 3rd so as not to waste CS’s great performance.
Imagine if our goalie were playing just as tired as everyone else … 10-0 Dallas by now?
Also, our play aside, the Stars look really on their game tonight. Considering the hodge-podge lineup we are duct-taping together each night, this result is actually kind of to be expected against a deep skilled squad like the Stars.
It’s easy to forget, with how we’ve been conjuring up cinderella wins lately.

I think Christopher Walken should be the official spokesman of the Canucks PP

Terrible effort. Would they have played any better in front of Rayzor? Nah!

It’s nice they had a pulse in the third, but too little too late. Oh well.

Just more credit to Red. Kept them in a game they had no right being in.

Next game should see a return of the captain and happy fists. Step in the right direction I guess.

They decided to play hockey in the last 15 minutes. Not too sure what they were doing in the first 45 though.
Not to belabour it, but that was the ref covering his own ass on that disputed goal.
Fucking puck was still free, and Hank got robbed there. No whistle.
For the life of me, I can’t understand why it was not a goal

I think they might have been better with Raymond
But that is pure theory Schnieder was very very good tonight
PV…again…not an excuse, cuz Dallas deserved the win, but that was a b2b with a 2000’ mile flight between too
Sammy’s worst game of the season tonight

Moral victories count. Kinda. Sorta. Maybe.

yeah…there ya go…moral vicoties…whats the symbol for that in the morning paper standings again?
;-)…still waiting for a reason why that was disallowed…if it was pushing in Turcos leg, that is a total BS call…you can’t say that is what happened. His leg barely moved…puck looked free…
Oh well, the breaks come AND go…apparently

For the record, when AV was just interviewed by Murph’…when asked about the explanation for the disallowed goal…
" I don’t know, they didn’t tell us"
Bozo sitting beside Kypreos said that the whistle blew…but he is an apologist by the sounds of it. The replay clearly showed at the time that there was never a whistle even heard.
Fuckers…
Ahhhh well, Chantel said I should let it go…so…last word on that tonight!
