The annual Nucks Misconduct meetup is happenin' for this game!
********************************************************
Poor Calgary. They play Detroit tonight and then they draw Vancouver Friday night. 2 tough teams to play against. Sitting 5 points out of a playoff spot before even facing Detroit,
these 2 games are huge for the Flames. (Edit: Flames up 3-1 on the Wings with 13:00 left in the 3rd).Flames beat the Wings 3-2. Wow.
As for the Canucks, life is grand. The team is firing on all cylinders and #winning. What will the Canucks' effort be like on their final game before Xmas Eve? Will they have turkey and stuffing on their minds? Or will they go out with a bang? Good thing they are playing at home, close to their families, so Mrs. Luongo can text Lou when the kids are screaming and the turkey is burning.

I would just like to say I hate you all and your team sucks. On that note, if you do win, it would be awesome if it could be a shutout so I can get some much needed fantasy points.
also merry christmas/happy hanukkah/joyous kwanzaa/festivus, you bastards.
by Justin Azevedo on Dec 22, 2011 9:07 PM PST up reply actions
sure thing!
and if you win, can you have another one of your completely awesome bro-outs somewhere in your gamethread? It’s one of my favorite memories of playing you guys last year. :)

Great Quote From Last Night's Game...
Reading out of the Calgary Herald. Hilarious. “…The Wing swarmed the Calgary zone with the single-minded ferocity of a colony of African Army Ants descending on a remote village.”
BTW, 4-0 Canucks. Hammer.
5-1

my fantasy notes for David Booth are reporting he’s targeting a return for Jan 9 against his old Panthers.
this apparently comes from The Province.

@NM_missy
That’s what Booth said on twitter. Not sure if I would follow that because it might just be more of him hoping to be back, than the doctor’s telling him he’ll be ready.
