Plus the Flames played last night at home against Oilers and had to travel, so they may not of had their legs.
But whatever, Canucks have basically always sucked, yeah they fluked out in 82 and 94 but still no cup in what almost 40 years now, just as bad as the leafs too. It is always next year with the Canucks but next year never seems to come Some will say they play 'entertaining' 'exciting' Hockey but, whatever, it is time for them to take the next step and become a winner. Exciting and entertaining just no longer cuts it in my books. But I don't see them winning the cup for a very long time as they seem to be in no hurry to change things. But the 'suckers' will continue to fill the stands and pay for PPV and until that changes, nothing with the on ice product will.
Funny how 3 of the 4 WHA teams that Joined the NHL in the very early 80's have won the cups and Edmonton won 5 and Quebec now Colorado won 2, The former New England Whalers now Carolina won one. Only Winnipeg/Phoenix have not.
Even the NY Islanders who cam in after the Canucks have won 4.... So why haven't we won any?
