Bounce Back Game

burrows_101608

Canucks 4

Redwings 3

OT Win

record : 3-1-0

I would have been quite happy to steal a point on the road against the Detroit Redwings, Alex Burrrows, and the rest of the team had a different idea. Goals by Jannik Hansen ( his first nhl goal), Ryan Kesler, Mason Raymond and the OT winner Alex Burrows brought the Canucks game back on track. It sounded like it was an entertaining game. I listened as much as i could, while being at work. looking forward to watching the hilights.

this seemed to be more like my Canucks of the first two games. Gone were the apparitions that showed up against the Capitals. Not that the Canucks played a perfect game.... I'd still like to see more from the second line, ... but two points on the road, against Detroit, I'm almost impressed !!!

Men vs Boys

Canucks 1

Capitals 5

i'll give you three guesses who the boys were? and it wasn't the Washington Capitals. Its no time to panic, not yet...... It is after all, only game three, but........... i really don't know what to say about this game. The Canucks - my Canucks were just plain out classed. They looked and played like they were tired.

on a brighter note, we scored our one goal on the power play, and Ovechkin was kept off the score sheet.

I don't expect them to win 82 games, but a little more effort would be appreciated. Lets hope their effort, and game improves before they face Detroit on thursday.

Canucks Record : 2-1-0

Thanks for the memories

This is indeed an ending of an era for the Vancouver Canucks. You will not be forgotten. Here's hoping the organization does the classy thing and retires your jersey.  A sad day for Canucks fans - 94' will never be forgotten, and neither will # 16.

Too Young.......To Die.....

Up and coming Rookie Defenseman Luc Bourdon, killed today in a motorcycle accident.

R.I.P Bourdon - you will be missed

I sort of go blind sided by this news when I arrived to work this afternoon. I guess you could say it sort of ruined my day. Alls that kept repeating through my head for the rest of the night was.... he's so young, so young, too young to die.

So much ahead of him. A very promising NHL Career, his whole life.... 21 years old. Such a shame.

I can only imagine what his family and friends must be going through right now. As a Canucks fan, I am pretty shocked and still can hardly believe it. And I just knew him as a Vancouver Canuck.

My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends as they struggle to get through this difficult time.

End of an era????







Could this be the end of Linden's career? All evidence points in this direction. I sure hate to see him retire though.

What a classy move by Iginla and the Flames on saturday night.

Classy fans, taking the oppurtunity to show Linden the Love !!!!

I still love my Canucks...... but am in mourning !!!!
