These next two games will define our season probably
Both are must win.
LOL
Nice.
For Alex “Big Game” Burrows, its his 500th, and the Twins will make it memorable setting him up for 2 goals, including the winner in a 4-1 Win.
The way I look at it, I am sacrificing my climb up the standings in the SPW contest for the greater good, as the team has not lost in regulation in the last month…about the time I went with 4-1 for 95% of my predictions.

i think regular season games are reflection of the playoffs.
I think it’s important to establish dominance in the regular season.
You're
giving me anxiety.

It's 2 games
out of 82. Winning is nice, to be sure, but the whole season won’t capsize if they drop both games.
Warm winds blowing, heating blue sky, and a road that goes forever...
3-2 Canucks, Burr.
Hodgson on Hansen--
"I've never played with a guy who creates so many offensive turnovers.
I really enjoy playing with him."
had a gamethread idea earlier, but then i lost it….

I have a midterm today right before the game
I’ll have a nice Canucks game to wind down to, I hope.

back to my usual prediction with Luongo in net
3-0, Daniel

2-1 Canucks
Grizz GWG

4-1 Canucks

Nucks win
Nucks 3-2
Bieksa with a shot from the point rebounding off Gill’s ass, first helper from the stainchon and CoHo with the second. I got pretty drunk last night and had this preminission just before i woke up……last time that happened I had a preminission that the old lady left me…….so far I’m 1-1 in my preminissions.
You need to be more specific, all those names can mean so many things.
I smell a 4-2 Canucks win
#shootersonfire Burrows GWG Go Canucks Go!
Should be a fun game tonight! Looking forward to beating you guys :P
Anyway, the main reason I’m commenting is because I was wondering if, in the projected lines above, you intentionally put Ryan Ellis (D) as the 4th line winger, or if that was a typo?? I mean, maybe the Preds are moving their Dman to wing and I didn’t know about it, but I just thought I’d ask.
Hands go uuppp..... AND THEY STAY THERE!
-nashvillepredators-
Dailyfaceoff.com, perhaps?
I’m not sure either, but that looks right.
As far as setting a D-man on the 4th line, hey we’ve done that with Alberts a few times and it’s worked out-
Um, it’s worked out….
…yeah.
Work hard, play harder, rest easy.
3-2 Canucks

Yip.

So on the NHL Yahoo! page it has Nucks/Preds for the NBCSports game at 8
but when I scrolled to that time slot on my TV it had the Detroit/Chicago matchup
that better be a mistake…I want to watch the Canucks in real time, damn it!
"Now, we must all fear evil men. But there is another kind of evil which we must fear most, and that is the indifference of good men." - Boondock Saints
3-2 Canucks, Kesler
5-1, 6-5, 4-3 (SO)… those sure don’t look like results you’d expect from Nucks-Preds games.
Work hard, play harder, rest easy.
that 6-5 one was crazy…the only goalie that didn’t get lit up was the preds backup lol
Go Canucks Go!
that dude is like 6'5"
I was watching when he started against the Rangers…pretty damn athletic too for someone of that size
"Now, we must all fear evil men. But there is another kind of evil which we must fear most, and that is the indifference of good men." - Boondock Saints
4-3 Nucks
Dank ftw
"Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn."
16-0 Webber GWG
The over rated and easily intimidated Canucks fold under the pressure of playing outside the easiest division in hockey.

I have a bad feeling about this game
4-3 Preds, Weber GWG.

Your bad feelings
are becoming a source of consternation. Stop it. 4-3 Canucks, Higgins gwg.

Bought your
Hal Gill jersey yet?

Nah, he'll only be here for one year.
I learned my lesson by spending $200 on a Kariya jersey.
Gotta like that pickup for us though :)
