PrintAnaheim Ducks at Vancouver Canucks, Dec 16, 2009 7:00 PM PST
I don't know what the Canucks' record is when I reference Slayer in these Game Threads but I believe it's pretty good. Metal and hockey. Such a great combo!
To the tune "Ghosts of War" by Slayer
***********
Target assassinate, time of your life has expired
Hatred victimize, gaze in their eyes as they
Violence inflicting the pain, savage morticians deny
Drive the salt in the wound, arouse the subconscious to lie
Memories can't ignore
Anguish of before
Satisfy the scorn
Go Canucks! Kill the Ducks!

No joke…I am in colorado (breckenridge) and am in a bar sitting directly in front of a canucks banner. Old school “V” style.
That’s a win tonight right there.

Kesler needs to score another…stay on the streak…

It’s mostly just an east coast thing, but Five Guys burgers are also awesome. My brother says they’re similar to In N Out. I’ve never experienced the glory that is In N Out burger.

Five Guys is mostly South Atlantic I think, DC, NC, VA etc. But there are some a little farther North. There’s one near where I live in NY.

Can’t agree with you there. Anyone who helps the Knights win a Memorial Cup gets a freebie pass in my books.
Fair enough. I’m only basing this off his NHL career. I don’t really have any allegiance to Junior teams, except for maybe Lewiston.

I think so. They supposedly had a deal that would see them move after last year but that got nixed somehow. I don’t remember what the new timeline or location is.

Ryan was the biggest crybaby in the OHL. It was embarassing to see him whine to the refs every single minute. WAY worse than Crosby.
Crosby isn’t even the biggest whiner in Pennsylvania.

Mike Richards. He’s awful when it comes to pissing and moaning. You’d think a team that embraces the moniker “broad street bullies” wouldn’t whine so much.

by Beantown Canuck on Dec 16, 2009 7:44 PM PST reply actions
Yeah I’d give it to Iggy too honestly. But I"m guessing Neidermayer makes the team and I’m guessing he’s Captain. I mean, the man has won a zillion golds and a zillion stanley cups. His record is summed up in one word: WOW

For Canada you could throw a live cat and see who it hits to name your captain. Any one of a dozen guys could be named.
I dunno… I think the only solid contenders are Iginly and Neidermayer. Who else?

So…Sid is too young?
I am guessing it will be Neidermayer…but Thursday is right…you could throw a cat in the room and hit somebody, and not go wrong…

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"
I’d be good with Sid, after leading the Pens to the Cup last year. But I wouldn’t be surprised or upset if they went with a vet to honour him, since Crosby will have lots of chance for glory in the future.

Holding? I sez bullshit.

I think what he meant, and that I agreed with…is there is a sufeit of choices…how many guys on the team are captains of their own teams?
Hell, including ours, I am counting at least 6….Neids/Luongo/Richards/Sid/Staal/Marleau

In ine of those cases it worked – Marleau ‘s keeping nice and relaxed this season. Can’t say it’s done much for Carolina, though.
Staal
was never captain though was he?
Rod the Bod has been for a while, though he should probably retire and make way for Staal.
Good point
I think it was just an A rather than full captain. I do love Rod, but he’s outstayed his skill set, alas.
Gotta
love Brindy but sure has struggled defensively last couple years, used to be the best part of his game.
Not sure of the number…but they said on a Nucks broadcast he has the worst +/- in the league…-36 or something…love the guy too…but peeeyooo!

good riddance to that period. and the one before it. let’s hope the boys in blue wakeup.

Last five minutes
Were good. Didn’t dominate, and mediocre execution, but they actually had their eyes open and feet moving. I’ll be good with that for the third – so long as it’s for the entire third.
Wellllll…that period was better than the last one. But yeah…
Still, the 2nd goal…I can never understand why refs can say the D-man had anything to do with Calder all over Luongo there…“ohhh…Salo kept him there”…Salo just held his position and the guy fell all over Luongo…amazing save anyhow, but the defense didn’t bail him out.
They say they are supposed to be protecting the goalies.
Yeah…right.
Canucks just need to win one period…they can still steal this one!

The Nucks are lucky they’re in the game. It’s not many nights that you’ll be able to stay in the game with 13 shots through 2 periods, and going 0-for-5 on the PP.

On the road, eh, it happens. At home, it pisses me off. To be that flat at the beginning of the game is garbage. Especially against a team it should be easy to get your dander up with. Way too lackadaisical.

Partly it’s that there are a lot of good teams at the bottom of the rankings this year. Minnesota, Anaheim, St. Louis, even Carolina, are all teams that should be performing better based on paper and past experience. We’re just the only team they actually perform up to expectations against :-P.
Anyhoo, bed time. G’night.

sounds like the tables turned tonight.
on monday, the canucks did well in their game while i did bad on my exam.
tonight, the canucks play like crap while my exam goes a lot smoother than anticipated :)
oh well, can’t have everything……..
