A Collection Of The Canucks' Game-Winning Goals From The 2011 Playoffs
The disappointment of the loss to the Bruins is quickly subsiding for me (if you call 3 days of dejection and misery "quick") and so what I'd like to present to you are videos of every Canucks game-winning goal scored from this year's playoffs. Honestly, this loss will never sit well with me, nor will the 1994 and 1982 losses. I hate 2nd place. But what I can do is mope over it, OR I can congratulate and celebrate the Canucks team that gave us a lot of terrific memories this past season and focus on the positives. I can live with the fact that several of our guys were playing hurt and couldn't get the job done in the end. I can live with being thankful to the team for giving us so many terrific memories this season. I have thoroughly enjoyed sharing these experiences with you all and with the fans up here in Smithers. So raise your glass to these guys and toast the wonderful season that it was while enjoying the visual candy that I am about to present...
Higgins tips in a Bieksa point shot to make it 1-0 Canucks over Chicago in Game 1. They would win 2-0:
Oh hell yes, Dank! What a goal to make it 4-2 in an eventual 4-3 win in Game 2:
Aww..Samuelsson gives Hawks fans a sad in Game 3 (you know we really could have used that guy..)
Alex Burrows slays the dragon..or plays exorcist..or whatever in one of the biggest goals in Canucks history. He scored the only 2 Canucks goals in Game versus Chicago. This never gets old and never will:
Higgins, for the second series in row, pots the game-winner in Game 1 of a series for Vancouver. Hey man nice shot!:
Shea Weber in the P Box in OT and the KesLord gets his 2nd goal of the game:
The KesLord is at it again in Game 4 scoring another PP goal and this was THE BEASTLY BEAUTY:
A bit anti-climatic, but Daniel Sedin scored the series winning goal against the Preds in the 1st period of Game 6, a PP goal, paving the way for 96 tears from Carrie Underwood:
The Canucks kinda had their way with the Sharks, as Hank's PP GWG in Game 1 shows:
Did I ever tell you I love that Higgins guy? Well he scores his 3rd game-winner of the playoffs in Game 2 vs the Sharks. Another PP goal. The 4th goal in a 7-3 win:
Salo's turn to be a hero..and his heroics showed up on the PP this night..his second of the evening as the Canucks win Game 4 4-2. This performance by Salo really still stands out to me for some reason. Great to see the oft-injured old guy have a super game:
Game 5 versus the Sharks..Second OT..Thanks stanchion for the assist! One of the strangest series-clinching goals evah! And who bags it? Bieksa! On to the Finals!
Game 1 of the Finals. Kesler barely stays onside. Nice passing play and Torres finishes it! 19 seconds left..
Alex motherfcking Burrows to the rescue again in Game 2 OT. Nice fail, Timmy and Zdeno. Man I thought we had a choke hold on the damned B's at this point..:
The final winning goal..a beauty set play by Bieksa to shoot it wide and Lappy squeaks one past Thomas in Game 5:
Feel any better? It's hard to isn't it? I know I feel better browsing through all these videos.
I would like to re-iterate that it has been a pleasure mingling with all of the members of our Nucks Misconduct Community. We live and die by our team but we also have grown as friends through the experience of this website as well through the team and personally. For that I am eternally grateful. Remember: despite hating the loss, celebrate what our Canucks did in 2010-11. It was a beauty of a season!

Well, you mean after he got three points in one game. Still more than the Sedins in total…

Just stating a fact
"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!"
certainly.
“yeah but that was cool, but…” followed by what I visualize as usually as deep sigh strikes me as most people still dwelling on it.
maybe I’m projecting a little, but I’m ready to move on
And others may not be. Everyone deals with grief, disappointment, etc in their own way.
GO SHARKS!

What struck me watching the first 3 wins against Chicago was
…how much the defense playing against us made it look like they were exhibition games. Daniel walking in like that and scoring in game 2 would have been, and was, impossible in the final.
Anyway, nice to view again. I’m ready for July 1st and start of next season since I cannot sleep through one night anyway.

Thanks Sean!
Sean, thanks for a great season of news, updates, highlights and opinions. I’ll be a NM reader for the long haul now.
I called home this morning, and my dad had talked with Hamhuis at the Smithers Celebrity Golf Tournament this weekend about the season and how he was feeling. Nothing newsworthy about his injuries that hasn’t been said already, but it was nice to hear that he was still in good spirits after a shitty end to the season. He’ll be on crutches for a month or so after his surgeries so it’ll be a tougher offseason than he’s used to. Dan was feeling good about how things would be on the team next year as far as returning players, morale and their drive to make that one extra step and bring home the trophy. He brought up a few of his jerseys and a couple of Sedin ones as well and they were auctioned off for almost $15,000 in total.
Cheers,
Nate
So Manny didn’t make it up for the Tournament? Huh. He was supposed to.

By the way, in case you didn't see this:
DOUBLE STANDARD
One final thought on rookie Marchand: How come when he abuses a superstar he’s applauded by Hockey Night in Canada and the media as a savvy kid who gets under the skin to win. But when Montreal Canadiens rookie P.K. Subban did the same, we were told by the same voices that he was a punk with no respect who needed to be taken down a notch? Is it because Marchand is a Bruin, a sacred squad on Hockey Night, because Sedin is a European or because Marchand is white while Subban is black, or all of the above. Take all the time you need to answer.

They aren’t looked at as superstars probably because their ascent to stardome was so slow and steady.

Completely OT
But do the Canucks have an AHL farm team yet for next year? I know the Moose are moving to St Johns to be the as yet unnamed Winnipeg NHL team’s farm team but I can’t seem to find anything talking about what the Canucks are going to do. Anyone know anything?
