H.Sedin = overtime hero !

Canucks 2
Sharks 1

overtime

* Whats with Jeff Cowan? He didn't score !!!!!
* Taylor Pyatt opened the scoring, and Henrik Sedin won it in overtime on a breakaway, in which he slammed home his own rebound, (which is good since it was his penalty that the Sharks scored on to send the game into overtime. A soft call to be sure, but it was a penalty never the less)

* Markus Naslund has been playing great lately. Its nice to see him return to form.

* an entertaining game to be sure - another two points in the standings
* 87 points in the standings and the Canucks maintain their 4 point lead on the Wild, increase their lead to 6 points on the Flames, who have a game in hand

My Three Stars

1. Henrik Sedin
2. Roberto Luongo
3. Evegni Nabokov

but what do I know :) we'll see how my three stars compare with the team 1040 three stars.

* The Canucks improve to 11-1 -1 in their last 13.
* Roberto Luongo (39)breaks Kirk McLean's record of most wins in a season by a Canucks goaltender. (38) Historic win for Luongo and the Canucks
* Great to see the Canucks play another good game. I know they've been doing this since Christmas but I still am not used to it.
* The game was scoreless till the opening minutes of the third period, it was a well played game, and the Canucks emerge Triumphant. A great team effort, a playoff like atmostphere, and a playoff like game.
* Is this ever gonna end? as a die hard Canucks fan, I certainly hope not !!!!

Get this three stars on TV

1.Nabokov
2.Luongo
3.Thornton

* I beg to differ. HA HA

GO CANUCKS GO !

Be wary of should win games

Canucks 1
Blues 3

Another should have won game, but didn't. Another missed oppurtunity to put some space between them and the Flames and Wild. It was such a boring game. I have to admit after spending the day with my 3 year old nephew, and my nephew of a month and a half - i was tired. Turning on this game - put me to sleep, and I woke up in time to hear St. Louis open the scoring. Daniel Sedin tied it a bit later, but that would be it for the Canucks. I dont know what it was, end of a long road trip, coming down from a high after the trades. Who knows. It seemed to be a pretty lacklustre effort.

Next game, on thursday against the Coyotes. I hope they win!

Biekscellent !!!

Canucks 3
Kings 2

Another Canucks win, another two points. Another game, they didn't really deserve to win. Goals by Morrison, Linden and Bieksa, extended the points lead between us and Calgary. It was looking pretty scary there for a while in the third. If it wasn't for the great goaltending of luongo - what a thought? Luongo stealing a game for us? Has this ever happened before. Where would we be without Luongo!!!!!!!!!

KUDOS - to salo, Luongo was down and out, somehow, someway Salo got in the way of the puck that was headed into the empty net, and wristed it down the ice. That was a game saver if I ever saw one !

"It was a game plan well executed in the third -- spend the whole period in our zone and make sure the goalie's cold on the other side so we can get one,"

Roberto Luongo deadpanned.

BINGO BANGO BONGO

his name is ROBERTO LUONGO !!!

HOW DID WE EKE OUT THIS WIN?

Aside from the heroics of Roberto Luongo, and Morrison and Linden scoring in the shootout. How on earth did we win this game? It's quite simple, one word answer - LUONGO !!!! He is the major reason we won this game. I guess thats why he gets paid the big bucks !!!! It was scoreless for most of the game, until about 1/4 of the way thru the third period. Chicago scored - My first thought was oh no not again. This definitely was not one of the Canucks better games. Thankfully Matt Cooke scored a few minutes later, and the game went into Overtime. Jan Bulis is thanking his lucky stars that Luongo is amazing !!! The game goes to a shootout, and the Canucks with stellar goaltending by Luongo and two shootout goals by Linden and Morrison grab the two points.

The two points, giving the canucks sole possesion of first in their division - for now !!!

I heart salo

Finally, a game I was able to watch. Me and my adorable nephew Nolan watched the game tonight. It was time well spent. Bonding time with my month old nephew. It was a really well played game though. It was scrambly at times by both teams, Luongo played well, like he normally does. The whole team I felt played really well tonight. Thank Goodness for Salo scoring in Overtime. Did anyone else see Alex Burrows closeline Sami Salo, after he scored his goal? That was the funniest thing ever. I guess he was a little exuberant celebrating with Sami Salo. Was hilarious !!!!

Was a good game, too bad we gave Minnesota a point, but the important thing is we get the two points, and I believe we are tied for first with Calgary again. A good start to the road trip. Lets hope they keep up the good work, and keep those points coming in?

GO Canucks GO
