Pretty easy storyline for this one. The struggling Canucks head into a blood thirsty United Center against a Hawks team that is not struggling and will no doubt be out for revenge for

Star-divide

THIS:

How about a look at it from the fans' perspective at The Rog:

It will never get old. It will live in Canucks' infamy. Even IF the Canucks lose this game on Sunday I'll still get goosebumps over THAT game 7 and probably watch it to cheer myself up. Unfortunately, Alexandre Burrows might not play in this one as he is suffering from back spasms. His status is unknown.

Hopefully the Canucks smarten up, or this could get ugly. Dave Bolland is already saying he's looking forward to the challenge of shutting down the Sedins again. Dan Carcillo shit-talked the Canucks before the season started just to be a heel and draw attention to himself. I hope Ballard or Hammer hip check his punk ass. And speaking of aggression...the Canucks need more of it, in every way except aggressive pinching defencemen. Jeeziz, AV, put an effing leash on Bieksa and Edler and Hammer too it seems. If they commit these fouls against Chicago...it's over quick. Chicago's transition game is scary. Vancouver has to clean up in their own end (which I believe they will do against Chi-Town) and they have to be way more aggressive in front of the opposing net. Get dirty, you slackers!  Play like you WANT to win!

STATISTICALLY SPEAKING

-Andrew Brunette is a Canuck killer. He has 19 goals and 57 points in 66 career games vs Vancouver.

-Johnny Toews is 4-8-12 in 16 career games vs Van. The only time I like Toews is when he wears a Team Canada jersey, gets killed by Mitchell, is on the ice when BURROWS SCORES! THE CANUCKS HAVE SLAYED THE DRAGON!

-Roberto Luongo is 13-9-1, 2.25 GAA and .926 save % against the Hawks

-Daniel Sedin is 12-23-35 in 39 career games vs Chicago.

-Henrik Sedin is 12-20-32 in 38 career games vs the Hawks.

-Canucks are 23-9 in their last 32 Sunday games.

-Canucks are 3-8 in their last 11 vs. a team with a winning record.

-Blackhawks are 1-4 in their last 5 when their opponent scores 2 goals or less in their previous game.

-Thank you covers.com. You rule!

And a few of us talk about whether or not its proof AV should go, while a select few of us hover around the conversations and make jokes and silly observations, while others still talk about things completely unrelated to hockey.

Hey Sean

Leddy-OD is actually the 2nd line. Leddy-Keith were the 1st line until Keith’s injury and will likely be reunited if Keith is back tomorrow night.

I'm not a big fan of Leddy-OD

but Q like to keep the D-men on their preferred sides, so I’m guess that’s why OD got the call instead of Montador.

Also kinda hoping that Q puts Sharpy back on Toews’ wing for your guys. Toews had 1 SOG last night, Stalberg had 7 official SOG and 15 shots directed at the net for 0 goals. He’s got speed, but stone hands.

More likely Q starts with what you have up there, but if the lines aren’t producing he’ll throw Carcillo with Kaner-Hossa where he was (believe it or not) awesome until his most recent suspension, drop Stalberg down to the 4th, and put Sharpy with Toews and Brunette.

Very different than teams past in that Q doesn’t have the same ability to juggle the lines as much. The parts fit better (with only one glaring hole).

Its simple

they show up and win, because they know they could be embarrassed if they don’t.

At risk of being overly positive, Luongo has a solid game because he can, the offense wakes up, and the Canucks win 4-1, with a snack goal for Hossa at the end, and the GWG one created by the Twins, but finished into the empty net by Silent G.

Oh

and when you have this guy saying this…

"I’m actually pretty excited to play them because I think there are a few guys there who played a little bit out of their shoes," Carcillo said of the first-round series. "I can keep most of those guys in check."

I always knew he was nutty, but I don’t think he will catch too many guys, unless its the ones that want to be caught… Q’ gets the choice though. Maybe he will try CarBpmb versus the Sedins a shift or two. That should be good for a goal at least!

A long and bloody battle between two teams that hate each others’ guts. Both have something to prove, and that will make for an exciting game. I can’t believe that the last time we played Chicago was when that Burrows epicness happened.

Let’s say Grizz gets the winner since they don’t know what to expect from him, and he will finally find the back of the net with Keslord wrestling Toews in the background.

So anybody who doesn't predict a win, or anyone who acknowledges the very real flaws of this team is a shitty fan?

It’s a prediction contest, not a “I WISH I HOPE COME ON GUYS” contest. Has the team looked awesome to you so far? Sorry I’m a horrible fan because I see a team that’s immensely talented but hasn’t shown the drive to play like they give a fuck so far this year. We’re not the Flames, but we expect a good effort, and without that effort, we’re going to lose more than we’ll win. It’s a process, and this team isn’t quite there yet.

That said, while I don’t think the problems are all figured out with this team, I think they come out strong and get it done tonight; 3-0 Canucks. Kesler with the winner.

by RogerFenway on Nov 6, 2011 9:55 AM PST up reply actions  

No

but I do love the “certainty” that folks that rationalize it that way come with.

It does come down to the interpretation of those “very real flaws”, huh? I am all about the effort too my friend. I just love how we as Canuck fans always totally dismiss the other team in everything.

Let’s face it, the Blues are playing really well to start the season.

But every person that is positive is not ignoring or discounting “problems”. Just sometimes the hyperbole with which they are identified!

The Blues played great. So did the Wild. Hats off.

I didn’t say “every person that is positive is ignoring or discounting "problems"”. I was responding to the shot that a lot of us are fair weather or shitty fans or something because we’re not picking a win. You haven’t seen any issue with this team this year? Cause I do. And the Hawks have been absolutely killing it so far. I see a team that, SO FAR, hasn’t really shown a 60 minute effort so far. Defensive coverage has been awful, pinches without back up all the time, missed assignments galore, the cycle hasn’t been good, we’re getting out muscled down low, and being consistently beat to rebounds. None of those things are un-correctable, but for now, they’re present, and this team is good enough that it’s not acceptable. It’s great that other teams are playing us well; good for them. I’m not evaluating things from a Blues or Wild or Blackhawk POV, I’m looking at things from a Canuck POV. Regardless of how our opponents have played us so far, the Canuck efforts have not been good enough. Simple as.

I have totally seen things that could be better.

Thats not what I said. I just smile sometimes at the hyperbole. The laundry list of problems that can be rattled off.

But thanks though Roger. You illustrated exactly what I was saying about it all. We get so worked up about these things, and then it seems to almost transmit to the vibe of the team. All the ANGST over Lui, when it has happened every freaking year with this team.

Of course anyone that tries to be positive can see the problems. They are right there to see. But it is a game. Sometimes the best team does not win. But usually, they do. I find it hard to believe that the team that went as far as it did last year sucks so bad when the only changes to the roster would have to be thought of as positive.

(well, Booth’s start not withstanding! At least he hits more than Raymond though right? LOL)

I was just responding to hyperbole the other way, it's cool.

If I thought it was a personnel problem, I’d be more worried than I am. I think it’s an effort/drive/fire thing right now, and that’s something that can figure itself out. Again though, we’re being asked to predict how this game will turn out. If it was “What would you like to see happen”, I’m sure the entire board would be picking 10-0 Canucks with Carcillo getting a lifetime ban cause he looks like a pedophile.

I've followed the team my whole life, and I think people being called "crappy fans" because there's a bit of deserved negativity is lame. Not being defensive, just calling it like I see it my man.

I don’t recall anyone saying the Sedins are done. That would be stupid. I don’t think there are too many people here who would like to see Luongo be traded, either. AV is, I think, a legitimate issue, and again, I take a bit of issue with the idea that anybody who entertains the idea of a coaching change is “knee-jerk” or “going nuts” or something.

The team is not fucked. They absolutely can, and most likely will, turn it around. I’m well aware who is on this team. I’m also not a fan of how they’ve played lately, and I am, again, going to call them like I see them.

I’m quite optimistic overall as a hockey fan and as a Canuck fan, but if I don’t like something, I’m going to mention it. This is why we’re here, and it’s a little tiresome to have people tearing a strip off of anybody who makes any sort of criticism of the team. Again, I picked them to win tonight.

easy big fella

I have followed this team my entire life too. From the start. I get it. And there are negative and positive fans everywhere.

No one is “tearing a strip” off people for being negative. It is just that, maybe more than any other team in the league, we have fans at one end of the spectrum or the other. There is little middle ground. Like I said above, when you react with a laundry list of problems to what I was saying ( that fans of this team are into the hyperbole. I would add to that it is usually positive or negative )

Shit dude, I get accused of being too positive all the time. It makes me laugh. How the fuck else should people react to problems if they want to solve them!

Its all good. I don’t think I was, anyway, labeling you one or the other. Its just that there are so few thinking, middle ground fans with this team, you know?

Well, except for here at NM. We are all fucking experts here. Or addicts. Same thing?

I’d say that’s unfair. I don’t think Semi/me, or Canucklehead or Section jump on the coach irrationally because of losses, but every time a funk comes up or a loss of composure comes up, we get really frustrated because its always for the same reasons.

I was 100% behind AV until the second loss to the Blackhawks (and even then, I wasn’t that pissed off as Chicago was the better team that year), and was a bit frustrated early last year because it seemed that his ability to motivate the team and manage the mental/emotional side of the game. When they turned it around, I gave him the benefit of the doubt because it seemed I was wrong. But when they nearly collapsed against Chicago, and I will be clear, that was a team failure and not Luongo, it was the same old, same old. Then they squeezed through Nashville on great goaltending from Lui and Kesler beast-mode and beat up on a physically decimated san jose team and I was a bit concerned about Boston. When we started well, I started to cast my doubts away again (we are keeping up with their style of play and out working them) but then we collapsed, AGAIN, and this time it lost the cup. And at the centre of attention was Lui and people were deriding him, but for me, I constantly wondered about what AV was doing to right their play. He never called time outs, he never pulled Lui and just seemed to lose complete control in-game. The team just seemed to be listless and unable to stay focused when something didn’t go their way. If Lui let in one bad goal, or a puck bounced off a skate in an unpredictable way and in, they just seemed to be flummoxed and unable to keep pushing. They couldn’t adapt their play to match Boston’s stifling D and didn’t seem to get the Sedins going at all. Game 7 was the ultimate frustration, as Boston got lucky on the first goal and instead of pushing, the team just gave up and shot a million pucks into Thomas’ logo. He played awesome in 6 games, but in Game 7, Thomas had it so easy.

For me, team failures come down to the coach. One year should be forgiven. Two years should be questioned. But three years of the same problems?

AV has undoubtedly been an awesome coach for us. He took some pretty bland teams and worked wonders with them – he was the Barry Trotz of that time. Yes, Lui was good, but AV had the team playing way above their heads. But it’s been 6 years here (more with those who he coached in the AHL), probably with the same message, given its the same coach, and every year, the same problems crop up. The team can’t handle tight checking teams and they completely lose composure in the playoffs.

That’s my thoughts on the matter. I know where you are coming from, believe me. I don’t think AV is an awful coach or he’s an awful guy. Far from it. He’s a great coach and has done wonderful things. But the team as a whole has some problems which seem to prevent it from breaking through, especially in the playoffs and I wonder if a new voice is needed to correct them.

Anyways, I really respect you and your opinion too. I just wanted to voice where I am coming from, because I don’t think its entirely fair that sometimes those of us here get lumped into the irrational-hate on the coach thing. For most of us, its based on watching this team for a great many years and our opinions of some problems we see.

The Canucks right now are like the movie Pearl Harbour. Great cast. Lots of potential for a great story. But when the movie is over you feel like you just wasted 3 hours of your life.

Step into the Dragon's den, and see for yourselves whether he was truely slayed...

I think you may find he is still quite alive, and also breathing fire.

Looking forward to the game. After what has seemed like a month of playing Eastern Conference teams, this feels like a true start to the season.

Game on.

by Detroit Must Die on Nov 6, 2011 9:58 AM PST reply actions  

those sure are pretty

Especially how white those ones from the Original Six are.

The 2010 one, hells yes. But the Original Six Cups and the teams that get boasted about with them ( like the Leafs, at least you guys won a freaking Cup!)…it was a 2 round tourney. Hell, way back when, I think they were like best of 3 or some such, you know!

That dragon was slayed last year. Every team is different every year. It should be fun though. I hope it lives up to the hype. Nothing like a little hate to get the blood boiling. ;-)

If that's the case then congrats for barely finishing off a dragon with a champange hangover and a gimpy limb. ;)

I tend to take the Annals School approach to things, the Longue Duree.

Sure the dragon foolishly exposed his unarmored belly a time or two (1982, 2011), and you got in some good blows…

But with Chelioses, Kanes, and Toewses, surely those of who remember the fire breathing and the terror (1994, 2009, 2010)?

I seem less confident about the Hawks tonight than most of you guys

but I guess that might be a homer bias thing. We all see the chinks in our team’s armor. Hawks took 3 out of 4 in Florida with Keith out of the lineup, but they gave up a lot of shots. Should be a good one.

I'm looking forward to tonight's game simply because it is the Hawks

But honestly, the fact is the ’Nucks is not adding a whole lot to it (though it does to a point). Just not worked up about it like others seem to be. To me it is an inter-conference non-divisional game. 2 points is the goal, and no points for the bad guys is preferred!

Best rivalry going in hockey.

I feel a Canucks win. Can’t really say why, just feels like it in my bones.

Hawks lead 3-2 into the third, cough up the lead, then lose in regulation or OT.

Blackhawks bleed Red & White.

Well, every season there is always the obligatory "Luongo pulls his shit together in the UC" game.

Hoping he saves that one for later though.
