Geez, can't I just be hung over in peace? No, Round 2 starts right away for the Canucks. The Predators have been sitting in limbo since Sunday, after disposing of the Ducks in 6 games. This is new ground for Nashville, who has never been to round 2 in the history of their franchise. Early prognostications have this being a much less exciting series. Lots of defence. Less goals. I'm willing to keep an open mind and accept that this series could be better than that.
Do not underestimate the Predators. Take a look at their player stats from round 1. They get scoring from a lot of different players. That is something that the Canucks did not have against the Blackhawks. But we do have a second line in Raymond-Kesler-Burrows that looks better and better all the time. So at least some of the pressure is off the Sedins.
I think this series is going the distance. At least 6, in my opinion. I have a lot of respect for this Preds team. Scroll down the page to see what else is going on with these 2 teams. The Canucks' "cold" list below is disturbing, as is the Preds' hot/cold list.
Well whaddaya know..2 Vezina finalists in the same series. Looking forward to the goalie match up.

-Despite Game 7 win, Vancouver Canucks still face pressure cooker. (Mike Chen, SBN)
-Mike Gillis fined for referee rant. (TSN). Oh well, at least the officiating was much better in game 7.
-Dan Hamhuis talks about Game 7 and playing against his former team. (Canucks.com).
-Dirk Hoag from On The Forecheck talks Preds/Canucks with the Kurtenbloggers. You really need to check that out for a good look at what the Preds are all about.
-The Province eats crow about Luongo.
-Nice work, Canucks fans (Vancouver Sun)
-How the Preds can shut down the Sedin Twins (On The Forecheck). That's easy. Shadow Dank. Hank won't shoot. haha

I need to establish hate for the Preds. I really hated the Hawks so had no problem desecrating their logo. My guess is you’ll see something for the game 2 preview.

Johnny Canuck was a Canadian cartoon hero and superhero who was created as a political cartoon in 1869 and was later re-invented, most notably as a Second World War action hero in 1942.
Initially, Johnny Canuck had no superpowers. Johnny Canuck’s cartoon exploits helped Canada fight against Nazism. Like Captain America, he met Adolf Hitler and almost single-handedly ended the war.

hatred for the Preds
Funny you mention that, I wrote the following after one of our games in the Pred series;
“I do know one thing, if we keep playing in the polite manner the games have been contested so far, “Looks like nothings gonna change.” Where are our rectal agitators? I’m half expecting players on both sides to apologize to each other for hard hits."
That changed a little of course in Game five when Hossa bumped into Hamhuis. Still, let me know how that finding hatred for the Preds thing works out. Easier said then done. No doubt it will start with Weber. If O’Brien tlaks enough that might help also.
I had no problem arousing extreme antipathy for the Nucks, Sharks and especially the Flyers last year. The Preds were definitely a different animal.
That is un-sportsmanlike, Sean
we Predator fans don’t hate your Nucks, at least not as much as the Ducks… just sorry about your luck to be playing against a team that is as hungry to advance again. We’ll see if this lasts through the series. No hatred, just want the Preds to advance to the next round.

It's Going Six . . .
. . . but also realize that Nashville gave up 20 goals in 6 games, which averages over 3 a game, to the Ducks. Either Burrows or Kesler, in my opinion, is going to break out in this series and I feel the Canucks, as a team, is much better defensively than the Ducks. I feel the Canucks can win this in 6 games.
As for this particular game, it wouldn’t surprise me if the Canucks come out strong, then fall flat from the 2nd period on. Since it will be very unpopular, I could see a 2-1 Nashville win w/ Mike Fisher potting the winner.
Vancouver has scoring talent obviously but don’t ignore that the Ducks had Getzlaf, Ryan, Richard winner Perry and Teemu “6G in 6GP” Selanne.

Canucks cant get out of 2nd round
I dont think the Canucks monkey was beating the Blackhawks but getting out of the second round. Last time it happened was well before I liked hockey. There were the last two years, the Ducks in 07 and my personal favorite the Wild in 03. Preds got this.
Weber is going to bust Burrows face with a slap shot.
Either way this is going to be the loudest series in round two
You’re already making it the most annoying. Pretrolling. Very sad.

Hmmm...
Because a group of players—only 3 (at most) of whom are still here—was wearing the Canucks jersey in the 2003 playoffs has zero relevance to the outcome of this series.
Second, both the Ducks and the Hawks went on to win Stanley Cups in the years they beat Vancouver. The time that Chicago was the only series in which Vancouver was favoured and did not win.
Since you admittedly have not been a hockey fan for very long you may not have noticed that the Canucks were the best team in the league this season. And that was for a reason. In none of the previous 4 years were they even close to being the best team.

Seriously? Why so mad dude? Even Keith or Seabrook couldn’t do that, and one of them won the Norris Trophy!
I like the part about being two young ( or, “before I cared about hockey”. ergo- it did not exist then ) as a reason for the Pred’s “got” this.

I think Game 1 will be more high-scoring than most people think...
After hearing everyone talk about how low-scoring this series will be, players on both teams will subconsciously take more chances and, combined with the less-than-stellar recent play of the two Vezina Trophy finalists will make game 1 a high-scoring affair.
Let’s say 5-3 for the good guys with Edler on the GWG.
There's a lotta big matchups where what you think will happen is exactly what doesn't.

But
diving calls are usually code for a “STFU” from a ref fed up with you complaining or something.
AV was his old coach, has that under control. But he does have a rep, so I understand. Been pretty good here though. Think he got one rep call in Rd one, put in the box for 10 for just whatever.
That’s the line that can change this series, Lapierre and Higgins look to be renewing their chemistry, and building some with Hansen.

Nashville is SO dirty, even SOB won’t hit on the girls in the bars!
(I kid cause I love, I’m sure Nashville is a perfectly nice place)
well maybe you can come visit during the playoffs
and find out. Your team will be needing some moral support when they experience the fanaticism of the Bridge during playoffs. I didn’t think that my fellow Nashvillians could get that worked up about hockey; they made me proud.
I hope to visit B.C. (and maybe Vancouver while I’m there) at the first opportunity, after I finish school and obtain an income.

And that is why the “Nashville shouldn’t have a team” thing is silly. If you can fill an arena and support a team financially, then of course you should have a team (I don’t know about the profit sharing situation of Nashville, and that could reasonably affect the financial wellbeing of the team).
If you visit BC, unless you drive in from Alberta or middle-of-virtually-nowhere Washington State, you’ll have to pass through Vancouver. It’s nice. Bring me whisky?
of course
driving to the west coast from alberta is a drive everyone should take at least once in their life. Preferrably calgary to banff then up to jasper then thru to vancouver. The banff / jasper highway (icefields parkway actually) is very possibly the most beautiful road i’ve ever driven on…don’t try it in winter tho, it’s usually closed.

We could come visit
I am paying roughly 600 bucks to go to Van for game 2 with travel costs, ticket ($206 for row 12 upper deck) and food for the weekend. Staying at my parents is saving me some money. I read that tickets in Nashville in the upper deck are as cheap as 45 bucks. So it would be cheaper to fly Vancouver to Nashville and go to a game than for me to go from where I live to Van to watch the game.

few thoughts
1) It’s too fucking soon! Distilled haven’t even processed yesterday yet.
2) ALEX MOTHERFUCKING BURROWS!!!!
3) Looks like we stick with Radiohead until further notice? I’m cool with it.
4) Really looking forward to the Rinne / LuonGod matchup. I expect it to be huge.
5) I’m not as weary about the spread in Predisposition offensive output in the first round. They didn’t have to face Hiller. Instead they got a gibbled Emery and #danellisproblems. Our scoring would look much better in the same situation.
6) ALEX MOTHERFUCKING BURROWS!!!

The sedins will have room to work this series
As much as I love weber, and I think he’s the best Dman in the NHL the preds just aren’t as mobile as the Blackhawks which is exactly what the sedins need. I’m not saying the Canucks can easily beat the preds but our team speed is going to be much more of an advantage in this series. Our backend being a mobile group is going to be far more obvious as well.

4-1 Canucks, Kesler.
Some stats that jumped out at me:
- Pred’s penalty kill was atrocious against Anaheim, absolutely brutal. If the Canucks can help keep that trend going it’d go a long way to winning the series.
- Similarly, Canucks have taken a boat-load of penalties… same as above applies to them!
- Both goalies haven’t exactly been stellar. Series could easily be decided based on which goalie improves the most from their first round performance.
- Faceoff percentage is just way out of whack compared to the regular season. Good chunk of that could be missing Manny, or facing a pretty good faceoff team in Chicago. Probably both.

If you take out games 4 and 5
where the team bailed on Luongo his numbers were very good.
Just looking at games 1-3 and 6-7 Luongo has a .948 save % and a 1.51 GAA
I know it is faulty to take out whole games. But I think we can agree that 4 and 5 were team taking nights off and being horrible not Luongo being bad.

Without games 4-5
which to me is fair enough to ignore, cause that was not the same team on the ice at all, the Canucks as a whole were statistically quite impressive. Luongo’s stats are fantastic, our team statistics (especially goal differential) are very good, and we were 4-1 in those games (and deserved to win game 6 too) so overall we were the much better team. Again, that’s assuming we ignore the two anomalies that I don’t think are evident in any way of the Canucks play.
Based on that, I would expect we can dominate the Preds, who will have a much tougher time scoring “by committee” against us than they did versus the Ducks. Anaheim’s defense was porous and their goaltending questionable; the same cannot be said of the Canucks.
Damned straight those are fair game to ignore. I hate it when CBC posted Lou’s numbers per game and made a story out of it. Completely unjustified.

Agreed
Luongo was certainly not to blame for those games, and was not directly at fault for a single of those 12 goals. Sure, he could’ve stopped some of them, but when your defense is that porous it’s tough to stop anything at all. And yet critics call it Luongo’s meltdown, which is utterly preposterous. So ignoring those anomalies, and rightfully so, Luongo’s numbers against the Hawks this year and in the playoffs thus far are excellent. And therefore the endless criticism the media has incessantly berated him with is completely unwarranted.
you would think that I know
but logic and reason don’t always enter into the Luongo hate-train.

'Nucks Misconduct Sr. VP of Inappropriateness and Questionable Conduct, second director of immaturity.
Well, when you go 1-35 on the PP you aren’t going to win too many games and their play got a little too predicatable.
I think what they accomplished
was hugely impressive despite the loss. To go up 3-1 vs Stamkos, St. Louis, Lecavalier and the like without Sid or Geno – and with Jordan Staal as your first line centre – is still an accomplishment in its own right, even if they couldn’t close it out. I shudder to think how could the Pens would be this year if Sid and Geno were healthy all year.
Ya, up 3-1, don’t remind me. I get the feeling a lot that this team has a sense of entitlement that pisses me off, but what can you do. Next year hopefully we have Neal mesh with Sid and Malkin and Staal on a line can make something happen.
But enough about the Pens. Has there been any other word about Malhotra. I can’t find any updates on Google or anything.
Won’t return this season. Surgery was successful though, which is all that really matters.
He’s at the rink heping out any way he can, being Manny basically.

It sounds like
he will be able to play next year. Surgery went the best it could possibly go from what I’ve heard, and his vision should be restored well enough so he can continue to play. But this year he’s done, that’s for sure. Which is really unfortunate. But what can you do.
I remember seeing the slow motion and thinking well that doesn’t look that bad. Then I saw it in real time and immediately changed my mind. One of those lapses I guess.
Manny was there in the locker room after game 7, and it was really nice to see in that video that was posted in Missy’s article yesterday. He’s still doing whatever he can to help this team. Good news is, he wasn’t wearing glasses when he was in the locker room, so he must not be as sensitive to light anymore.

I wouldn’t mind some feedback on that post, not because I’m a shameless plugger, but b/c I rarely paid close attention to Raymond this year and am not sure how accurate that post is.

Solid post
but if Raymond goes to the outside when entering the attacking zone, it doesn’t matter whether he’s facing two pylons on defense, he’s gonna skate around the net and turn the puck over.
He’s been very good ever since he was placed with Kesler and Burrows though. Wouldn’t surprise me to see him break out in this series (along with Kesler, who is long overdue for a goal or 4 and his play of late is deserving of it).

Oh, and this just makes my day...
one of the comments on the eulogy:
One other thing I forgot to mention was I think is was a mistake by coach Q to sit John Scott in game seven. The Canucks went right back. to the hard hitting style they found success with in game 1. When Scott was in the lineup the Hawks won 3 straight and Canucks had to play a more normal game. They would of had to pay a price from Scott if they told liberties with Hawks players while he was out there.
Scott was obviously the biggest reason the Hawks went on a 3 game tear. LMAO

John Scott, he of 59 seconds of ice time in Game 6, the key to the Hawks. My day has just been made.
It's his aura, man
His AURA! He doesn’t need to be playing. Just has to sit there. That strikes fear into any team so they don’t dare play physical.
Cuz heaven forbid he actually comes out to play….. and takes a dumb penalty…….

Just wanted to drop by and say good luck to the van fans. I will be pulling for my Predators, even though it will be a tough fought series. It is going 6 or 7 games. I think the Preds can win in six if we steal one of the first two. I think tonight maybe the most likely that steal. I

Moose begin their 2nd Round Series tonight as well!
Moose visit Hamilton to take on the Bulldogs this evening. Look for Eddie Lack to get the start, as he allowed TWO goals in the final 3 games as the team overcame a 3-1 series deficit to advance.
Sergei Shirokov had a point in all 7 games in the first round. Nice. And Marco Rosa is 2nd in the AHL in playoff scoring with 12 points in 7 games. Not bad at all!

Also, some idiot guy went to the girl’s washroom, waited in line, and then went into the stall with his wife/girlfriend, and was tall enough that he could look over stall doors if he wanted to.

Gonna be a tight race between him and Perry. But since the media is incredibly shortsighted, they’ll remember Perry’s 19 goals in 16 games run to end the season more so than any of Daniel’s accomplishments. We’ll see who comes out on top but I think it’ll probably be Perry.

Thank you. You have fine etiquette, Nashvillian. Do you like Country music? If so, have you heard the song called “Feed Jake”? It has a line in it that goes, “If I die before I wake, feed Jake; he’s been a good dog.” Why is that relevant? I have no idea, but it sounds like something Shane O’Brien would sing.
by Mica Van Isle on Apr 28, 2011 1:53 PM PDT up reply actions
Do I “like” country music…I guess I do. Is it the first choice I go to on my iPod, no, but it is there, so I guess I have to own up to it a little bit. Growing up in TN, country music just happens to be part of the environment whether you like it or not. Kind of like my high school friend that I took out to the honky tonk bars on Broadway (the obligatory place for tourists and anyone visiting from a small town on their first trip to the “big” city). A life long rap fan that “hated” country music somehow knew all the words to the country songs the bands were playing once we got a few drinks into him.
I digress…Feed Jake is hilarious, just like Shane (known to our fan base lovingly as “SOB”) is a pretty funny too.

On my shit, THANK YOU! You just reminded me of the phrase, “Honkey-Tonk”! And I just rec’d that (not really sure what this does, but I think its good) because tonight, every time the Canucks score, I’m going to scream “HONKEY-TONK!”

Hamhuis is the guy who was driven into the boards head first by Hossa, giving his team a power play late in the game with a one-goal lead when the series was tied 2-2. Kane scored shorthanded (5-on-5, net empty). The refs somehow forgot to give Hossa a game misconduct, so Hossa scored in OT to steal game 5.

maybe, but I prefer brunettes, especially with less makeup. I exaggerated a bit about a dime a dozen, but there really are a lot of artificial blondes running around here. A few less that can sing too, but it is rare to find a country song that I like, so I’m not familiar with her music. She is certainly no Allison Krauss vocally. But I admire that she is a hockey fan.

Personally
hair colour isn’t that important. I mean with everything else she has going for her I am not going to quibble over the pigmentation of her hair follicles.

EA Sports went 8 for 8 in the first round
Nuck’s Misconduct Bishop, 1st United Church of Luongod, When Burrows scored, Luongo said he blacked out. It felt good for him to beat Chicago, but he said he still does have perspective. "It's only the first round, that's the crazy part about it," he said. "We have a long way to go." 4/2711
Is that
including game numbers as well?

"You can't come in my kitchen, kick my dog, and take a box full of ballpoints! Your ass must be crazy!"
Did not read more than the original article
If they can do that though. Those predict numbers would be pretty prized early by betters, huh?

Luck to your nucks!
Just stopped over from LHH to wish you luck. 1/2 (semi) Colon stops buy our place and has seemed to to a good luck charm for some of our boys. Thought I would stop and see if I could return the favor here, maybe get Kesler going for you.
Back....

Yeah, that Kezler needs to step it up.

Well if you didn't watch the games
and just saw he hadn’t scored you might not realize he was arguably (but not really) our best forward against Chicago.

can’t be expected to watch all Canuck games when he isn’t a fan AND get Shifty all at the same time. That’s tough.

hahaha
There was a guy at SCH saying after game 7 for someone to call him when Kesler actually did something in the playoffs. And basically kept repeating that Kesler always had a vanishing act.
I kindly asked him what he thought of Kesler’s power move to the front of the net to set up Burrow’s first goal
"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!"
"You can't come in my kitchen, kick my dog, and take a box full of ballpoints! Your ass must be crazy!"
Thanks!
