None of that matters, the Canucks are lifetime losers and we have the better goalie. No reason why we can't win no matter how many of our stupid fans don't believe in us.
My criticism seems valid. I saw DL say the F word upstairs on TV when the team went into OT. Sutter is going to get this team ready, I think.
It does.
That is we didn't play to our best the last two games of the regular season and now that it is over we can put all of it behind us and get up up up up for the new season, for the playoffs.
Thank god the regular season is over and now its off to the playoffs 100% healthy and ready to kick some serious hiney's.
Game 1 at Vancouver: Thursday, April 12
Game 2 at Vancouver: Saturday, April 14
Game 3 at Los Angeles: Sunday, April 15
Game 4 at Los Angeles: Wednesday, April 18
Hammond: "Why the back-to-back possibility? Because Game 2 is likely to be a Hockey Night in Canada game, and because there are massive scheduling conflicts with the NBA at Staples Center. There are NBA games at Staples Center on five consecutive days, so there would likely be a Clippers-Kings doubleheader on Sunday. Once the Hockey Night situation is finalized, the schedule will be released in the morning."
Last year we didn't. Had to watch the games on Versus because they played the Sharks. Maybe a Comcast thing though.
I forgot if we could watch the playoffs two years ago. sorry.
Yeah. With all the games being on national tv this year. I doubt it. I had game center the previous years and it would only gives me FSW feed if the game wasn't on national tv.

You can bet on that. Plus, i think he knows what the word "adjustments" means and how to apply them to a playoff game, unlike that other guy who coached here.
NOT official, but sched for LA-VAN could go Thurs.-Sat.-Sun.-Wed. Tough scheduling at Staples with NBA. Official announcement in morning.
Wow. Could be a back-to-back with travel? That's stupid.
Agreed. Back-to-back in the playoffs? Sheesh, the second game of the back-to-back would likely be a 1-0 game for sure.

Vancouver is in a lot of hurt minus one Sedin and no Samuelsson is huge. I like our chances.
Samuelsson was good in the last series where we met, but we're a much better team to when we had Sammy. Koputar is likely going to have Pahlsson draped all over him, with Hansen and Higgins creating offense and keying in on Kopi's wingers. Our 4th line is pretty damn good defensively too, and if we wanted to, could match them up with Kopitar if we wanted too. This is if Daniel is back and healthy, though.
If you guys light up Luongo, have fun solving Schneider. I am being dead serious too.
