Canuck Brunch- It's Just Not The Same- November 16

It will go down as one of the greatest moments in Canucks history. Game 7 overtime winners often stand up like that for any team. But with all the buildup, the two previous playoff losses, the animosity on the ice and in the media, it all came to an incredible crescendo. Maybe it's just me, but suddenly I find myself not quite as excited to see the Canucks take on the Blackhawks now. Should we be breaking up with them and looking for a new primary rival? It really feels like a relationship that ended badly, and they're the crazy chick trying to get back together with us. Jonathan Toews commented on Team 1040 that the last game between these two teams was all the Hawks letting the Canucks win and not anything that Vancouver did. That smacks of desperation. Apparently Jonny will not be ignored. What next, you gonna cook up a bunny, Jonny? Whatever.
After the Game 7 defeat, the Blackhawks learned that they were missing pieces, pieces that left after their Cup win in order to keep their core intact. So they went out and made some signings, Daniel Carcillo being the one that everyone's focused on. Carcillo sure made an impact in that last game, no? Seems like Steve Montador has been far more valuable to them, helping get their at times embarrassingly pathetic power play rolling. And the Hawks are certainly confident right now, chests puffed out after wins over the Calgary Flames, Columbus Blue Jackets and the falling back to earth Edmonton Oilers. If that helps you sleep at night, good on ya. There's much being said about their 6 point lead over the Canucks at the moment. There's only 2 more wins in their column, and with how clogged up the standings are in the West still, 2 or 3 losses could knock them off that perch quite easily. The gap will get closed tonight.
No panic in Canuckville with Roberto Luongo out with an upper-body injury, as Cory Schneider has likely been chomping at the bit for a start. Add in the motivation to make up for Game 6, where he coughed up a lead then had to leave due to dehydration, and I expect a stellar game from Schneids. And why shouldn't we? There's so much being made about how the Hawks have the Canucks number, still. It's an embarrassingly lazy and inaccurate narrative. Want the truth? The Canucks have won 7 of the last 10 meetings. That, my friends is all you need to know.
Looking forward to a statement game from Ryan Kesler tonight. His road back from surgery has been a slow and frustrating one for him and fans alike, but he is primed for a breakout. Add in the solid play of Cody Hodgson, a defence that is starting to right itself, and a sign that the team's 5 on 5 play is finally emerging from it's slumber and it all adds up to a Canucks win.
There will be a lot of trolling today, especially with the awesome fundraising effort by our friends over at Canucks Army. You need to keep your sense of humour about this. I think it's gonna be a lot of fun, especially after a win tonight. No nasty name calling here, not today. Just 1 game of 82.

It’s not really a rivalry until both teams win. Otherwise it’s just a beatdown

and why is anyone talking about discounting any Cup wins at all? Admiteddly it’s a whole different ball puck game to the Original Six days but those Cup Banners in the rafters are an inspiration to every single player and fan of the relevant team like no other.. and when (notice I say when rather than if) you win one, you’ll understand.. and it looks to me like all SCH types are on their bestest behaviour here.. you’d hate to see what we’re like at home!

well mike
a few things. The ancient Cups were won in two rounds. It was easier when 4 of six teams made the playoffs, and for crying out loud, some of them were not even best of seven!
As to the whole SCH/NM thing, I can’t comment for others, but it used to be fun. The only “banter” that occurs any more is over here with folks that are cool and come on over.
Personally, I just don’t go there as much anymore, and then only to lurk.

but a Cup is still a Cup.. and like I said, when you’ve had that feeling you’ll know.. as for SCH/NM.. plenty fun happens over at SCH.. westy99 gives as good as he gets and is a welcome voice any day of my week.. Missy is universally respected, Semi and Temu ditto.. and I miss AidanB who hasn’t been around for ages… there are some automatic ‘Nuck Fan Abusers’ over there, but heck, they’re everywhere.. and maybe it’s a little strong sometimes but that’s because the rivalry is too.. would you rather us be another Minnesota (or, from our point of view, you be a Nashville?)

I used to have some tremendous insightful conversations with folks there, and like most of the same that come on over.
But the “automatic” gets a little much sometimes, and all the cool kids come here anyhow.
I made the mistake of defending Hank’s comments after Game 7 and was vilified for it. So thats why I don’t go by much any more. Its totally on me there. I just can’t be troubled any more. Does not mean I don’t think the vast majority are cool beans.
And Minny? They hate us with a white hot passion, and we usually respond with a “meh”. Both teams being contenders helps huh?

yeah
I know this from Soccer-Fandom.. my team (Arsenal) are absolutely hated by our near-neighbours in North London, Spurs.. like, really hated in ways that North American Sports Fans would find it hard to believe.. whereas, because Arsenal have won shitloads over the last few decades and Spurs haven’t.. well, we don’t hate them, we kind of pity them.. (although this may be changing as Spurs are suddenly good again).. yeah, that competition adds to it.. it’s like we can hate the Beej while knowing that they’re shite.. but the burgeoning rivalry with Nashville, which has no local-vibe but is more based on recognising a genuine threat, is interesting

HAWKS play smart and stay out of the box..HAWKS win. So far this year no team is better than us 5 on 5. Either way,should be a great game.

but I think the original point stands.. the ‘March To The Box’ has frequently been a deciding factor when these two have met, one way or another.. and the (nascent) ‘Shedding Of The Clown Shoes’ by the ’Hawks PP helps in this balancing..

Your calculation of the numbers.
I’m a little dense today.
Nucks Misconduct's chief slab of man meat.
It is a system
That uses GF/G-GA/G-GD/G and adjust it by SOS (Strength of Schedule) in specific formulas for each. From there each teams percentile is determined for each category, and the three categories are summed into a final score. Because the highest percentile in each category is 1.0 and the lowest is 0.0, this means 3.0 is the highest and 0.0 is the lowest, and because it is a percentile system 1.5 in the mean.
BOS is the highest at 2.69 and CBJ the lowest at 0.103.

Florida at 3
Is really odd to see
"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!"
What was the reason for Boston’s struggles earlier in the season if they were putting up such strong numbers? I’m surprised because I was under the impression they were not playing well at all… but the numbers seem to suggest that they were playing well, but losing close games.
Was it strong opponents? Or having a bunch of big wins, thus inflating your numbers?

They were very low for the first couple weeks of the season <25th usually
But since, they have been playing VERY well indeed! They have a GF/G of 3.5 to a 2.375 GA/G. That is the best GF/G in the NHL and top 1/4 GA/G. They have now have 56GF to 38GA a HUGE goal difference. Even after SOS softens these (-0.15) their lowest Percentile is GA/G at 0.756. I think this checks with the eye test, they have been playing very dominant as of late. SRS (Simple Rating System) also puts them first by a HUGE margin at 0.98 2nd is 0.71.
FLA has 52GF to 42GA a large differential to the mean, with a 3.05 GF/G to 2.47 GA/G also both very good to the mean. Also after both are softened by a weak SOS (-0.11) their lowest percentile is 0.478 in GA/G (just below mean) while GF/G is a 0.793 and GD/G is 0.862, both very strong. So it shows average goal tending, but a very good offense. They do also have 21 points to this point. SRS puts them 5th

But the more the season moves on, and the more these numbers settle out, their record, SRS and this system all agree, they are NOT playing bad Hockey by any means, and in fact are playing pretty good on the whole! Now with between 16-19 games per team, one blow-out one way or another is not enough to skew to an extreme point.

@Vancitydan Writer at Nucks Misconduct
See
I’ve got no problem with this. It’s true!
I’ll never understand why Hawks fans can’t just take it as a compliment that we felt beating them in the finals was an achievement to be proud of. You have a good team that our team had a lot of problems overcoming. It meant something to us for the Canucks to win that round.
Why should we have a problem admitting that?
And why do you (okay not YOU specifically, TMFF, but you know, you-you guys-you) insult your team by constantly implying it’s somehow foolish of us to be proud of this?
Do you think we shouldn’t care? Should we feel like beating you was as meaningless as beating, oh I don’t know, the Leafs?
I mean, if that’s what you want, okay. Anything to promote warm and easy camaraderie I suppose. ;)

Just the way it played out. If you would have beaten us in game 7 to come back the way you did, it would have completely fractured an already fragile psyche.
I really do shudder to think of the outcome the other way.

To us I know it would have been pure delight
And probably the highlight of the season (I do not think the Hawks would have made it past the CF not matter what). But also for us, it would have been a telling tale of “never say die”, and that is how Toews SHG to tie is seen. Not as THE high point of the season for the HAwks, just THE personification of him, “Never Say Die”!

Just to be clear
You all get that the “dragon” wasn’t the Hawks, right? You do realize this quote historically refers to defeating your inner demons, and that neither we nor the press thought this victory meant the Blackhawks were forever defeated or anything dumb like that?
That said, I can only speak for myself, but yeah, winning that round felt like a huge accomplishment for lots of reasons, and I don’t feel it lessens my team at all to admit that one of them was that your team has recently been a huge challenge for our guys.
I know a lot of people think that how a thing ends determines how a thing is defined, or that if you don’t everything, nothing else should ever feel good, but meh, that’s not how I go through life (anymore!) I’m not going to waste my time watching months of hockey if the only way I’m allowed to feel good about it is if I cheered for the one team out of 30 that won the cup at the end. That’s ridiculous!
The wins are GREAT and the losses SUCK and neither one ever cancels out the other, and at the end of the season I feel like I really experienced something and damn that win sure does make me happy whenever I remember it.
In fact, I’m thinking of it RIGHT NOW. And also, NOW. Hahahahaha!

I think it’s just a POV issue. The very things you admire him for, the competitiveness, the unwillingness to lose, etc. When we watch clips of what he says, you guys interpret it as what you guys think it is, leadership and doing whatever it takes to win, whereas we interpret it as, whiny/bitchy and frankly, juvenile.

for me
It just seems like (and this could be the media’s fault) that when your guys do lose, we don’t see Toews take any responsibility personally for it. It just seems like a bunch of dressing room wall worthy quips and stuff like that. Say what you will about the Sedins, but I was in that dressing room Game 7 and they were front and center almost to a fault taking responsibility. Toews is a good leader, but until he knocks off the whining and the use of the word hate (even if it’s true, it just makes you look carcillo-ish than savard-ish), he won’t get a ton of respect around here

And somehow you found a way to insult both American Indians and PETA all at once.
Oh, wait I get it
/meant to be taken tongue in cheek.
Am I paranoid? I don't know. I went to a therapist once, but I left before he gave me the diagnosis, cause he had it out for me.

Yes
I am a terrible person
"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!"
it looks more like
“Cheek-Into-Tongue’ about to happen there..

I get that you're joking
So take this in the spirit it was intended. If that image is offensive to the American indian what does that say about the players and fans who put it on?

HORRIBLE PEOPLE
Everyone should be ashamed.
This why my jersey is a stick-in-the-rink and not that orca abomination ;)

my jersey is stick-in-rink because that’s what Michael bought me.

@NM_missy
and where do sticks come from?
Trees that were slaughtered so that some illiterate with an affinity for back bacon can fling vulcanized rubber past his chubby friend. That’s why the only real, non-offensive sport is NASCAR.
Pardon me I'm only bleeding But you cut me To the bone And tonight You're probably feeling Like a Human Cannonball
Mmm.
Back bacon.
Last summer sucked. In honor of the fallen, this season I'm taking a vacation from hate. I'm gonna love and tolerate the !@# out of everyone!
♥Canucks ♥ (and ♥Coyotes♥)
(does not actually know what back bacon is or tastes like)

Its just porkloin
bacon is pork brisket. back bacon is by far the better cut of meat.

Point, Semi.
I'll do it tomorrow, that seems like a pretty good idea to me
What's wrong with tomorrow, I'm watching him but who's watching me?
