Canucks sink Ducks to even series Roberto Luongo with 49 saves tonight. Helped out on a few of those shots by two posts. Overall, I felt that the Canucks played great throughout the game. Probably their best game of the playoffs so far.
Naslund opened the scoring, on a solo effort, that was vintage Naslund. 1-0 Canucks. Anaheim got helped out by a few powerplays, and just as one had expired they scored. Luongo made a great glove save, but couldn't control the rebound, and Moen shovelled it in. TIE GAME.
Thats how it stood going into the third, and that's how it stood going into Overtime. And thats how it stood going into the second overtime. Who would be the hero?? Yankee Mike called it, just a few minutes before the goal was scored. Cowan got the puck from Linden, and somehow, someway managed to squeeze it in past Giguere. Canucks win 2-1.
DOUBLE OVERTIME Strikes again. Go Canucks Go !!!!
Taylor Pyatt was a monster out there winning puck battles against the boards, throwing his weight around. Jan Bulis - wow - slipping checks, maintaining control of the puck. Where was this bulis through out the regular season. YOu know what? I dont even care. Just Enjoying this Bulis for as long as possible. I thought Brendan Morrison was on fire out there, for a few shifts, his line really controlled the play, and had some good chances! What can I say about Roberto Luongo that hasn't already been said? Lukas Krajicek, and Brent Sopel, with the increased icetime, played really well. Krajicek really impressed me tonight. Naslund, scored a goal, but took at least 3 or 4 penalities. He has to work on that, but he's scoring, and thats what we pay him the big bucks for. Alex Burrows, was at his pesty best - keep up the good work Burrows !!
Willie Mitchell left the game in the first period and didn't return for a few shifts. After the game Alain Vigneault was asked what the problem was and his reply ? - " Flu - like Skate syndrome" I take that as a problem with his skate ........ We can't afford to lose Mitchell as well. He used his long stick again to get the puck off the goal line. Both Salo, and Bieksa still out. Hopefully we get them back for Game 3 on Sunday.
