Well, tonight is a big night for the Canucks. If they can win this game, they will eliminate the Kings and move on to the 2nd round of the playoffs. If they lose, we return to GM Place on Tuesday to play Game 7 and finish the series there. Ideally, the boys will finish it tonight, in order to get a couple extra days to rest up for the next round. What will be interesting to see is whether or not the Canucks can repeat Friday's performance. This time will most definitely be harder, since the Kings will be trying to get vengeance for that 7-2 shellacking, and the Staples Center crowd isn't nearly as Canuck-friendly as GM Place. Brace yourselves now: Game 6 is tonight.

Thanks Missy.
Don’t see the Coyotes extending the series to 7 without Doan, and at Joe Louis to boot.
Throw more Snakes!
I just went over to mile high hockey to pay my respects. What a surprising and impressive year for them. Remember when they shut us out 3-0 the opening game of the season?

I like Matt Duchene, I feel like he's a much less douchier Patty Kane.
I like his goal celebrations too.
I still maintain to this day that Teemu Selanne (shotgun celebration) and Burrows/Bourdon have the best goal celebrations.

For us old guys…Tiger Williams riding his stick was always fun…
Samuelsson carries a Swedish passport, but Henrik thinks of his fellow countryman as quasi-Canadian. He plays with an edge and has lots to say to opponents on the ice.
"People in here love him," Henrik said. "He's almost Canadian with the way he likes to chirp and go back and forth." B. Ziemer/Van. Sun 4/22/10
hell yes! That is my #2 fave to Selanne’s shooting his glove on his 60th (?) goal

Hope he doesn't break a hip...
Please allow me to adjust my pants, so that I may dance the good time dance, and lead the onlookers and innocent bystanders into a trance.
Yeah I hope it’s a very good night for Sweden! Except for Modin.

I wish Clune was playing tonight! I wish Randy Turnover Jones was playing tonight! I’m sick of these Ray Bourque commercials celebrating his mercy Cup.

are you watching the game? NBC is still glorifying the Wings, even though they’re down 4-1!

my sig did say before that i was the “resident trucker mouth puck bunny”, but i think it caused the message i got from Connie Kim when i went to JftC about how vulgar language wasn’t allowed over there….
