hoping to see a hard-fought game. no injuries. don't really care about the score at this point; just don't get humiliated.

SO EXCITED FOR PLAYOFFS

5-4 O/T win. Burrows (x2), Booth, Hansen, and Edler.

Luongo for some reason doesn't play well vs the Ducks so I'm hoping Schneider starts.

Ryan and Blake seem to bring their A game vs the Canucks.

I'd say we win in a shootout if Schneider plays, or a loss if Luongo starts.

Love being underestimated... vying for the Presidents trophy for the 2nd straight year with 6 straight wins and TSN places us in 6th in their power rankings ( http://www.tsn.ca/fantasy_news/rankings/nhl/ )... hilarious.

Ducks will feel our wrath.

Well we're number one in power rankings over at NHL.com.

Per the Twitterverse - Luongo gets the start. Bieksa and Daniel remain on the shelf, although AV says Bieksa will get at least 1 game in before the playoffs. Also, Ballard continues to progress and they are "following protocol" with him.

The injuries to Sedin and Bieksa hold the Canucks back on TSN's rankings. Those rankings always seem to have an individual statistical weighting to them.

If the Canucks can win this one, I say they will win the PT based on they'll likely be able to win the last two on momentum alone. Anaheim games are always a bit messed, but I can't see the Ducks really giving it their all because they really do need the high pick. Who know though, Perry always likes to act like a sensational ass against us.

Could win the Presidents' Trophy 2 years in a row without even trying for more than half the season.

Scott Cullen is also a massive fool. That should get some consideration.

Those are based on fantasy points. Daniel and Bieksa being out are going to skew that.

We should just get #canucksproblems trending on Twitter to troll the internet.

Slumping Art Ross winners? Still lead conference. #canucksproblems

Canucks should be renamed "NHL trolls" if they manage to pull the PT out of their ***** with the way they have played since January (with the exception of a few games here and there and this active 6 game winning streak where we have looked solid, despite missing Danny).

I think it just goes to show that other team have struggled as well, though.

That's as informative as how many goals Henrik scores. He has 19 assists, also sub-par for him.

Complain about lack of offense? Score 5 goals against trap team. #canucksproblems

Complain about Top 6 scoring? Third line scores all the goals. Still win. #canucksproblems

Trade top prospect for goon? Bust out of slump. #canucksproblems

Too many number 1 goalies. #canucksproblems

Woah, did you see the thing about Sam Gagner in the Oilers listing?

"Remember the Sam Gagner glory days, like when he scored 18 points in a nine-game span in early February? He has six points in 20 games since. "

Damn, I didn't realize that. Talk about streaky.

Don't know which .920+ save% goalie to start. #canucksproblems.

4th line player scoring too many goals on first line. #canucksproblems.

It's a certainty that this is the last TSN game. It's the CBC crap-show all playoffs from here on out.

That's the punishment we get for being a Canadian team that actually makes the playoffs. #canucksproblems

One Sportsnet game left as well.
