Canucks Shut The Oil Rigs Down

PrintTHAT is what I was hoping to see and have been waiting for! Absolute domination. Silencing the kids almost to the point of nonexistence. The Canucks simplified their game and completely lowered the quality chances against. When they faltered Roberto Luongo was there, even though Lou should could have brought his laptop to the crease in the 3rd and joined our game thread. Physicality? Yes, we banged them around, especially Dan Hamhuis on Taylor Hall. He was smacking the kid around all night.
Highlights:
More.....
Here is an image breakdown of Canucks stats and icetime (via Canucks.com):
Excellent work boys. I'm not going to pull out any gripes on this one. Sure, we coulda/shoulda walloped them more on the scoreboard but it matters not to me. That was still:
DOMINATION!

Watching Renney, and his post game comments, was kind of funny. He was saying if they had brought their compete level that they “had a chance to beat a good team”. He was like, they are a good team…but"
I was laughing and shaking my head. Tom, what game were you watching. Your team barely got out of their own end in the 3rd…
grumble…grumble
I get the coachspeak, and all of that, but really, that was as complete of a dominant game as we have seen in a while. Without Dubnyk playing as well as he did, its 6-1 instead of 2-1.
Oh, and Canuck fans are gaining around the league, or getting more tickets. The Leafs and Habs are greater in number, but hte Blue and Green picks up more new or casual fans, I would bet.
I mean, the starting QB for the Rams ( Sam Bradford ) is a huge Canuck fan.

Actually it’d be 6-0, because no pulled goalie and thus no 6-on-4 opportunity and likely no Eberle goal in that case.

The internet would reach new levels of fantastic if somehow a player active in a game could post a comment in a game thread, let alone a goalie. Especially if said goalie posted something about how bad the other team was.

Maybe I’m just grumpy/tired/pissed off from working all weekend and being up late, but that game was a frustrating to me a bit. I’m happy they won, stupified that the Oil only got 11 shots (seriously, is that a recent record?), pissed off that Lou had his shutout broken on a stupid ass last second shot, and annoyed that the “#1 PP” couldn’t score on an almost 2 minute 5 on 3 against the leagues #30 PK. Damn that Dubnyk! He seems to play really well against us – I remember a couple games last year where he shut the door pretty good a couple times.
Also, I see the magic pen tool is catching on Sean?

If they shoot higher, they’ll score more goals. I’ve noticed lately that they get shots off but the shots are stopped by almost all the goalies they’ve faced. They only got 2 goals last night after pummeling shot after shot at Dubnyk, something that’s happened in recent games as well. Almost every time that the opposing goalie has made a “fantastic” save, it seems to me that had the shot been higher, the save would not have been made. Has happened to both Sedins a number of times lately, as well as to other Canucks.

I saw that piece, but haven’t read it yet. But in my opinion it is up to teams to set their own policy for jersey retirements and leave it at that – fans of the team can bitch, but no one else can. If Columbus wants to retire Jamie Wright, the Flames want to honour Oli Jokinen, or the Sharks want to hang Johan Garpenlov’s number from the rafters, who the hell am I to say whether or not it should happen?
If Stan Smyl had his number retired today I guarantee most of the league would not understand why. Canucks fans do. And that’s all that matters.

Speaks the truth
FWIW, the Sabres have retired 6 numbers, and they’ve been around as long as we have and haven’t won any Cups either. So yeah. I don’t think the Canucks are ahead of the game.
Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose.
I was going to say the same thing. That was the main thing that irked me about that article, he bashed the Canucks for retiring 3 but didn’t say anything about the Sabres, who have been around as long as us, haven’t won any either, but have retired double.

NM's Chief Lady Pleaser. Just ask eightyseven
likely
because he didn’t realize that the Sabres have that many retirees.
Lambert makes a good point to start off with:
Jerseys used to be retired on the merit that the player was an all-time great whose career with a certain franchise was so memorable and littered with indelible moments that can never be forgotten that it would be an insult to his immortal legacy to let just anyone wear the same number.
And at that point then begins to change the location of his speech from his mouth to his ass.
He forgets the most important thing, which nucksandpucks touches on perfectly. Whose indelible moments are they? Football Fans from some hodum town in Nevada? For the players he’s talking about, the league already retired Gretzky’s. Let the team and its fans decide who made a lasting impression on the team and who is worthy of this sort of respect.

This.
The Canucks retiring numbers is for Canuck fans. So all that matters is if the numbers hanging in the rafters resonate with Canuck fans. Not douches who like other teams. It matters not what fans of other teams think. Just like it doesn’t matter and shouldn’t matter what Canuck fans think of the numbers that have been retired by teams like Buffalo, Carolina or even Calgary. It’s none of our business.

Nice. I love exams like that – the joke ones, not the ones were you leave in 30 mins because you can’t do any of it.
My last undergrad exam was almost a German 101 exam (it was actually 2nd last) – I was done it in like 30 minutes too. The biggest joke was it was a “final” and was worth 20% or something stupid low. Coming from eng courses where finals can be 60-70% it was a laugh

that gif doesn’t even really require the waffle to be rec-worthy…in a team with a number of sutters involved, to be the funniest looking dude around is quite a feat.

you would think so
until you consider how awesome 99 was, and then ask youself, what was his ratio of awesomeness to ice time? Enough to make every minute he was skaing worth 3? 4? 5?
I think you have to try to look at the word “reach” in that question and find out what they really mean by that.
it'd be alot easier
to answer the question without that fat ass in our face!
