Lots of negativity in Canucks Nation right now and justifiably so after the Canucks' performance in Game 5. They gave that one away. From Luongo-out the effort was unacceptable, with a few exceptions. Ryan Kesler and his line are doing everything possible to close this series out. It was good to see Torres and line 3 cash in. But if your best players are not your best players in the playoffs you are in trouble.
The Sedins' lack of scoring is grating my nerves. A combined -7 in Game 5? Really? Enough is enough! If they aren't scoring then they at least have to work harder at defending. Yeah, plus/minus is a team stat, and several of those minuses were not their fault. However, they are getting smothered and spanked by Shea Weber and Ryan Suter and schooled by Joel Ward and now David Legwand. Ugh. If it's a health issue then the team really needs to end this series ASAP. The longer this goes the more they are getting pounded to a pulp out there.
I thought Alex Edler especially had an off night in Game 5 as well. He'll be back (Arnie voice).
I can draw some positives out of it all.
-Roberto Luongo will be better.
-Edler will not punch the puck into his own net again.
-The Canucks scored all 3 goals on Pekka Rinne at even strength last game. 3 of their previous 9 goals against Nashville were on the power play plus 1 into the empty net.
-The Predators have not won at home in this series. The Canucks can go back on the road and simplify their game, because Game 5 was anything but.
-It looks like Victor Oreskovich will slot in for the injured Mikael Samuelsson. That's not confirmed yet. He is going to murder all in his path in Game 6 and I don't mind seeing more of that from our Canucks.
-The Canucks have won nearly every period in this series in regards to their pressure game. Unfortunately, holding on to leads is not one of their consistent strengths. WAIT! WOA! Must remain positive.
-It's the Canucks for god's sakes! When do they ever do things the easy way? This year, they are getting it done regardless.
-Oh look the Sharks can't close out their series either!

This worked in Game 7, so let's try it again.
Great moments… are born from great opportunity. And that’s what you have here, tonight, boys. That’s what you’ve earned here tonight. One game. If we played ‘em ten times, they might win nine. But not this game. Not tonight. Tonight, we skate with them. Tonight, we stay with them. And we shut them down because we can! Tonight, WE are the greatest hockey team in the world. You were born to be hockey players. Every one of you. And you were meant to be here tonight. This is your time. Their time is done. It’s over. I’m sick and tired of hearing about what a great hockey team the [Predators] have. Screw ’em. This is your time. Now go out there and take it.
This is a joke right?
Cause if anything the ’Nucks are the Soviets and the Predators are the upstart USA team.
YOU are the EVIL EMPIRE in this series.
Go Preds.
oh for fuck's sake
its a goddamn speech. Get over yourself.

dude
First of all, relax. It’s just a speech. I’m using it because it’s a good speech. No need to et so butthurt over it.
I find it ironic is all
But I think your team more resembles the Soviets in all honesty than the Preds.

You guys won Gold Last Year
yet you still can’t seem to find your own speeches.
Get your own speech. Canadian hockey (I assume anyway) has plenty of examples of it. USA hockey has only a few. And don’t steal our shining spotlight in the midst of mostly failures.
This has less to do with Nucks/Preds than with Canada and USA.
Probably unhelpful for me to point out
but I just can’t help myself, that our best player in this series (Kesler) is an American, as are Higgins, Schneider, Alberts and Ballard (you might remember him). Of our other players, four are Swedes, one Finn, one Dane, and there’s always the drunken German. We do have a few Canadians of course – Luongo comes to mind. Meanwhile, on the Preds, Rinne is a Finn, they’ve a Belarusian, a Swede or two and a Czech. Plus some guy from Sicamous with a beard, a pile of other Canadians, and a smattering of Americans.
So why are any of us wrapping ourselves in a flag?
by Tink for Nucks on May 8, 2011 10:36 PM PDT up reply actions
Quite silly I agree
and on that note I’ll just drop it
So, have I got this straight.
Its OK for the Preds to have a kid use the “USA speech”, because they are American?
Our own speeches now, is it? Wow, not sure why nothing is good enough for some when they come over here…but OK. We’ll have to find “Made in Canada” speeches folks. We somehow offended yet again!
Stupid Canuck fans can’t do anything right!
The game is global, both teams have players from around the world.

Although that isn't really true
The NHL version of the Soviets would have to be either Detroit or Montreal. Neither of these teams fit the billing do they?
I've always thought of Detroit
as being the closest to the old Soviet teams in style of play.

Blergh…..it’s hard to close out a series. Look at the Sharks tonight. Also, kudos to Bieksa for commenting on diving…he certainly could’ve ducked the question, but its not his style. I love Lu, but I wish he wouldn’t do that kind of garbage. Kes and Burr too. It seems like it’s happening more in the last few seasons, every team doing it, and its frustrating to see. Diving is one of the reasons that I have trouble watching soccer, even though I try to watch the Whitecaps.

It's the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girl dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day. - the late, great Leslie Nielsen
The question is where the line is. If you are impeded, but only enough to keep you from doing what you are trying to do, not enough to, say, take you down, the call might not be made. Whereas if you fall down, you are more likely to get the call, but it is embellishing what really happened. Two things need to happen to take diving out of the game 1) (obviously) more diving calls and 2) more calling the subtle stuff.
Unless, of course, you are willing to accept the subtle stuff happening without calls as the price of fewer dives, then all you need is number 1.
The only diving I'm worried about is the sedins
They’re spending more focus diving than generating offense or working on D. Get focused sedins and take the preds out.

I have a feeling they will have a fire lit under their ass to finish this. Daniel breaks his slump, Kesler scores 2 and Rome gets his 2nd goal!!!
eventually i'll get one...5-2 Burrrrrrrrrrr

tambellini
i’d like to see him in place of either glass or oreskovich.
glass has been underwhelming. he was nursing an injury near the end of the season… maybe he’s still hurt?
I have to agree
I hate to say it, but I think the fourth line would ideally be Tambo-CoHo-Oreo (note the assonance). I may be crazy, but I actually like what Oreo brings to the table quite a bit more than Glass as of late.
Tambo-CoHo-Oreo (note the assonance)
To me adding gl*ass* has more *ass*onance. Of course you add tootoo and it’s the assiest…:D

Heineken is good for hockey games, but beware, it’ll taste like bong water if you let it get warm.

Its okay to drink in a pinch

Molsons and labbatts
Ugh. Think Miller or Bud… does anyone really want to do drink those cuz they’re good beers or do they drink em cuz they’re cheap and easily available?
Speaking of beers I’ve been buying different craft beers recently…anyone ever try Chimay? It’s dutch I think? like 12% alcohol (!!!) and tastes so effin good! Like 4 bux a bottle at the LCB tho.

Probably cheap and easily available. Also, if you’re just planning on getting proper smashed what’s the point in pounding back expensive beers? Better to save those and enjoy them

Well i'd suggest
that if you’re getting drunk for the sole purpose of getting drunk, yer doing it wrong. But I’m kinda wacky that way…i’ve never really liked being drunk cuz i’m an easy puker, and the older I get, the harder the hangover is…and the hangover was pretty hard when I was 25; imagine it now. NOTHING good about it – I’m just not wired to over-drink. If you’re getting drunk to enjoy the various drinks your drinking, we’re back to buying the good stuff.

Chimay is Belgian, comes in many colour labels which are all different. Which did you get at the LCB? They don’t have the full range here, obviously. Most Belgian beers are delightful. Except Leffe… I just don’t like Leffe.
it's the blue
i’ve been buying. It’s a dark ale but not real hoppy…
The other one I tried was a scottish light ale, can’t remember what it was called, but it was real good. BC Double chocolate stout…not so yummy.

If you like the more-expensive-but-delicious single bottles at the BCL, try the Innis & Gunn (could be the sottish you are talking about). It is aged in oak barrels, which gives it a very distinct flavour from what we normally get in beers here.
yes!
that was the one! I dug it. It was kinda right between a typical canadian mid size brewery honey lager and the chimay as far as taste…not as rich as the chimay but a tad more hoppy with a bit of the honey finish, and more like an ale than a honey lager.

I actually
like leffe with certain meals. When I go to Chambar, a leffe with a moule frite is a pretty good pairing. dunno if I could enjoy it as much on its own tho.

5-3 Nucks, ALEX MOTHER FUCKING BURROWS, FTW…
2 for Danny, 2 for KESLORD… hows that for specific?
Also, one of the green men will have to leave early because of a wardrobe malfunction and Edler will crush a couple of somebodies in penance for last game.
Hmm... Hard call
4-3 Nucks, Keslord.

Did you not remember
That you posted the same prediction two post above? :)

Hah, I refreshed the page and the first one didn't show up so I posted it again
Does this mean I get double points if I predict correctly?

The best part of that penalty was him looking at the cutout.

My "theory" why Edler and Bieksa etc have turned into turnover machines
The hockey gods are angry with AV for sitting Ballard after he played well. They are giving him perspective.

I don’t know if I’d call Bieksa a turnover machine based on that one bad play. That’s been one of the few he’s made. Edler, on the other hand, has had some pretty awful games this postseason.

I was exaggerating, but
While bieksa has played well overall he has had two turnovers in this series of the wtf variety. Luckily only one lead to a goal. Elder overall looks like the time off from injury might have caught up to him. Hopefully he rocks it tonight.

Maybe, just once, someone will call me 'Sir' without adding, 'You're making a scene.'
How is Manny doing btw
if you don’t mind my asking and if anyone knows? I heard his surgery was a success, and I saw a picture of him sitting with Kesler during practice (which I assume was sort of recently), so just wondering/hoping that his recovery is going ok?

We haven't heard too much
He’s been in all the post game celebration videos after wins, and apparently he was sitting around practice today with no sunglasses.

oh yay, good for him
I don’t know if its possible with that kind of injury but I hope he has a 100% recovery.
