GDT [1/23/08]: BLUES at Vancouver

[Mike6749]

Retributive call on Kariya there. I'd like to see more Boyes, Perron, Backes on the PP. Just no Brewer

[Mike6749]

Backman reminiscent of WIDEman there..........

[General Veers]

We're takin' it to 'em!

[WalterSobchak]

[Expletive Deleted]!!! thats a goal.

[Mike6749]

Horrible, horrible call. Goalies too often get the benefit of the doubt there. I don't think I've ever seen AM more heated.

I want a change on rules. If its good enough to question the refs in the NFL, Coaches in the NHL should get to challenge those.

[Mike6749]

Luongo

[General Veers]

Kelly Sutherland on his way to work...

What place would this team be in if they could learn how to score on a f-in 5 on 3 advantage. Seriously

[Mike6749]

Can't afford to give a point away to the 8th seed you're chasing. Game should've been over multiple times.

[Stang]

that was a pretty poor OT performance on our part...lets hope someone can score in a shoot out this time

[WalterSobchak]

the ref should get one hell of a gift basket from the Canucks for the 1 point, possibly 2.

[Mike6749]

Whoa Perron in the shootout this is sooo not AM

[Mike6749]

omg, the OT gods must hate us

[WalterSobchak]

John Garrett:

"Tkachuk misses, so who cares about the DJ King goal now?"

****ing Sportsnet broadcasters.

[Checker*]

Blame the refs all you want...this team doesn't deserve to win until they learn to take advantage of their opportunities better. Namely the 5 on 3

[Stang]

why would you put big walt out there....wow. walt misses 90% of the empty net chances he gets anyways

Horse ****. They scored. That is two goals taken back by bad calls. Plus another 3 last season about this time. It is complete crap. Game should have been over in the 3rd.

[Guy Legend]

I haven't been able to watch many games of late, but I did tonight....frustrating to watch.

And that Tkachuk goal should have counted. Luongo never had possession.

We're blaming the refs for that one quick whistle, not the PP or anything else. Settle down, your boy Perron was in the shootout with the game on his stick, pretty cool don't you think?

...and I had flashbacks to the first Mighty Ducks movie.

[General Veers]

Hey, we got Jeff Brown back to help the PP! (Oh wait, nevermind... he's just doing the post-game on FSN.)

Bad reffing is a part of the NHL unfortunately. You never know when some of these clowns are going to blow a big call. Every team gets victimized from time to time but ultimately, bad calls are out of their control. However, this team still had an oppportunity fully in their control late to win on a 5 on 3 and choked again.

The 5 on 3, the Backman wide shot, Luongo's save on Boyes, multiple PPs, the disallowed goal, the multiple posts that Vancouver hit......Canucks surely deserved to win after all of that, wouldn't say they outworked us, but the definitely outplayed us.

[Fish on The Sand]

you guys got totally screwed tonight.
