A Calgary game goes one of two ways
it’s either close as hell, or a major blowout. I vote blowout, and the boys make a statement.
5-0 Nucks, Kesler GWG.
Just a questions tho, and a silly one at that. When was the last time we ever faced the Flames backup? Every game I’ve seen, Kipper’s right there.
Tell me would you kill to save a life?
Tell me would you kill to prove you're right?
They always bring out their top guns
against us. I remember last year in the playoffs we were torching Kipper and Toskalol came out. ToskaLOLz came out right after this.

I mean starting
not trailing in Kippers torched wake

Tell me would you kill to prove you're right?
I think you are right!
And we torched them 5-1 that night too!
Tell me would you kill to save a life?
Tell me would you kill to prove you're right?
And that wasn't the playoffs my dear
Calgary, in the playoffs? HA!
Tell me would you kill to save a life?

THAT WILL BE THE DAY
THAT IS SOME LULZ RIGHT THERE

Don’t think this one’s gonna be a blowout, Flames always seem to give it that extra effort against us… not that it always does them a lot of good.
5-2 Kesler
I love how Salo isn’t even on the injury list. It’s like we don’t even have to pen him down as injured, we automatically assume he is as an afterthought.
5-1 Ehrhoff
Don't drink and park, accidents cause people!
If it ain't got a packet, go home and whack it.

Let's go

Predictions are all over the place for this one, so someone’s definitely getting at least 2 points. I know I could sure use some.

Aah, I see. Must have lost a bet or something. it’s hard to say how long the boys will be able to keep up that pace though. Hopefully longer than most of us think they can.

Yeah, it has to end at some point (although how sweet would it be if it didn’t!) – but if you want the best chance at getting points it would be best to just play the averages and always bet on a canucks win, since so far that’s over 70% chance of happening.
And he said he wouldn’t be a numbskull if the Canucks beat the Sharks last game

take this for a change
Iginla 2 – number Ones 1 (probably money month in the last minute). Better to end the wins now, get pissed and win the following 10. SOG will be Cowgary 12 – Potcouver 56

Going to (hopefully) be a good day for hockey!

Manny nit pick:
I’m gonna be picky and say that Manny probably should not be listed as cold with his faceoff percentage. He is pretty much responsible for the Canuck’s #1 position in that statistic. :P

I realize that...
may I propose a qualifier?
“-Manny Malhotra: 1 goal and 2 assists in his last 11 games. (athough his 63.2% in the circle is 2nd overall)”
or something to that effect.
I know I’m being picky but I refuse to let go of this bone! ;)
