COYOTES (9-5-5) vs CANUCKS (10-5-3)
GAME TIME: 6:00 PST
TV: Sportsnet Pacific
09/10 RECORD HEAD TO HEAD: 2-0-2 Canucks
LAST MEETING: March 30, 2010: 4-1 Canucks
If this pregame is even shorter than the last one it is because I'm in Vancouver, wandering the streets, picking fights, beating on the homeless and getting in and out of jail. Yankee and I will be attending this game live and taking a lot of pictures to document the experience. The Canucks are 3-1 in games that I have attended live. Every game I have witnessed live has been awesome:
- Messier-Nemchinov-Kovalev destroying the Canucks in the mid 90's was sad, but an exciting game.
-Anson Carter playing with the Sedins to beat on Calgary
-Trevor Linden's final great game in his career as he dominated in a win over the Flames. He was the first star of the game and we drowned out his post game interview with Dan Murphy with chants of "Trevor! Trevor!"
-Sami Salo scoring the OT winner in a come-from-behind win over the Red Wings 2 seasons ago. Temujin and I talked to Dave Babych after the game and ran into Pavol Demitra the next day on Robson. Screw you, Demitra.
More...
- Phoenix had a 4-3-3 record in September but a 6-1-2 record in November. They are heating up. Let me rephrase that: THEY ARE THE HOTTEST TEAM IN THE NHL! They have won 5 straight games.
- The Coyotes are middle-of-the-pack in the NHL for most team stats except: 28th in shots against per game, they have not won a game when outshooting their opponent, are solid in the faceoff circle. However, Phoenix has scored 5 power play goals in their last 3 games.
- There is not one spectacular scorer on the Coyotes team, rather, they score by committee.
- Watch out for this guy.
- Coyotes captain Shane Doan (lower body injury) may return to the lineup against the Canucks. He has not played since November 5.
- The Dogs were down 3-0 to the Oilers on Friday but came back and won 4-3 in a shootout. Ray Whitney had 3 assists and Radim Vrbata (love that name) had a goal and 2 assists.
- VIDEO
Taylor Pyatt destroys Aaron Rome:
The last time these 2 teams played each other:
Ed Jovanovski's first career hat trick occurred this season (too bad nobody was there to see it):
Thanks, Ilya.
Burrows! His 2nd straight Hatty came at the expense of whom?
I'm going to say 3-2 Canucks, Daniel Sedin with the winner. Pics and live game experience upcoming!

4-3 Canucks
Samuelsson with the winner, and our team will finally get back on track.
Think you had a small typo
Is it supposed to be 4-3-3 in October vice September?

Does Schneid
get the deserved start or does Lu continue to get coddled?
Everything's a mess, I sleep but don't undress, drinking all but the Tia Maria.
AV
Said Lu will start I’m pretty sure
"Playin hurt, baby that don't faze me. I don't got time for pain. The only pain I've got time for is the pain I put on fools who don't know what time it is!"
bah
oh well I guess it’s what he needs to get his confidence back right away… yet again…
Everything's a mess, I sleep but don't undress, drinking all but the Tia Maria.
Lu
Wasn’t stellar, but it didn’t help that everyone in front of him was trying to be like Jeff Schultz and trying out next Halloween’s pylon costumes
"Playin hurt, baby that don't faze me. I don't got time for pain. The only pain I've got time for is the pain I put on fools who don't know what time it is!"
I know
but he got the ball rolling, I don’t know wtf that position he was in is called on the 1st goal but it looked like some kind of Michael Jackson dance move, and he lost his net so bad on the 3rd goal (that really opened the floodgates) I think Turco could have scored that goal… from the bench.
Everything's a mess, I sleep but don't undress, drinking all but the Tia Maria.
Not feeling it
I think they’ll have a better effort tonight, but the lack of success outside the PP isn’t going to go away immediately. Of course if they blow out the Coyotes I’ll be happy, but
4-2 Coyotes
Stempniak game winner
"Playin hurt, baby that don't faze me. I don't got time for pain. The only pain I've got time for is the pain I put on fools who don't know what time it is!"

4-2 us. D. Sedin wins it.

So nice
You had to say it twice?
I’m starting to feel more confident in the boys now…maybe I should have waited some more to place my prediction…

Let’s try something new. 3-2 Nucks, Raymond for the winner. Zandberg climbs over glass to get at BizNasty. Yankee asks why we don’t have ice girls. Smo doesn’t care because his head hurts too much. and yes, I just referred to myself in the third person. Wooooo…..owow.
As soon as you're born you start dying, so you might as well have a good time
Would you rather have
Ice Girls or Puck Bunnies?

Thanks for the warning

Sorry for losing my temper last night folks.
Biased refs? NEVER!!
Just looked like the Hawks didn’t need the help, and some of the stick fouls were a little weak.
Nonetheless, fellow Canuckleheads, I was not really blaming the refs. Just angry and venting.
Hopefully the players are angry and take it out on the Yotes.
4-2 Canucks.
Burrows with the GWG.
...it’s a damned shame that a field as potentially dynamic and vital as journalism should be overrun with dullards, bums, and hacks, hag-ridden with myopia, apathy, and complacence...from a job application by Hunter S Thompson to the Vancouver Sun. Oct. 1/1958
2 - 1 Yotes
Stempniak with the GWG, Luongo bounces back with a strong outing and does everything but QB the PP to keep the ‘Nucks in (30+ saves), but his mates still can’t get muster enough effort to dominate the scoresheet.
Bad back to back games maybe then motivate a sustained roll…
NUMBSKULL!
