What are the Canucks thinking?
They get a pt. in LA because of the super super great play of their backup goalie & then they throw in R Miller against Dallas ?????????
When you have a hot stopper who stood on his head keep playing him till he has a bad game. That's the time to put Miller back between the pipes.

Have to agree with Dave. Canucks & Leafs are playing like the "Dolly Sisters"
Hire Tiger Williams as assistant coach either for Canucks or Leafs & his stare alone will energize the players.
Let Canucks study game film of the Blackhawks & then tell them to do the same.
"How to...win"

Sparky was sharp tonight, my phone call to him last night certainly paid off. By the way here was one of my son, #6, 25 years ago scoring a goal, just uploaded it from an old VHS tape. Unfortunatly he did not make it to the NHL. ;D ;D ;D

Not too late for your son Chris. From what I see, your son will be a shoo in for the 1st line. :)

# 6 is a player the Canucks need.
Changes are in order.
Boston played in Calgary 24 hrs ago & Canucks were  rested.
Yet they lose big time.
Gee normally Canucks explode for 1-2 goals a game.
Tonight zippo.
17 shots in the entire game.
Torts was not the problem.
He must be laughing his head off.
Canucks just have no one that is willing to step up & lead.
Players must wear sunglasses when they Cash their cheques or pull $ from the ATM.
On the other hand the Leafs were flying.
Surprised there were still some fans in their seats with 5 minutes to go.
Canucks reminds me of a house with a  "for sale sign" with words in MLS description " Hurry will not last long"  ( only thing the home been on the market for 2 years !!!!! )
FA what is the answer?
New coach,trades,start yelling at the players,( like hitting a race horse on the butt with a stick )....
Goaltending 3/10
Defense 3/10
Forwards -10/10  :o :-[ :-[ :-[

The problem with going with a youth movement is that fans have to be patient while guys like McMann and Virtanen learn what it takes to play in the NHL ie. speed of the game, physicality and strength of the other players. The BC Lions made wholesale changes in the off season and it took over half the season for the new players to get used to playing with each other

Your right FA.
Hopefully owner,TL,GM,Willy,fans, & players do not lose heart.
Nothing like a good trade to get Eddy Lack back ,will be the 1st step to get things back on track.
He was kinda like a Trevor Linden type. Played with heart skill & fan favourite.
The guy had that smile & his teammates played hard not only to get wins but to play hard for their goalie.
He was like the glue & puzzle piece for the Canucks.
Other options would be to get Rod to take the Canucks surgeon fishing.
Plus play Elvis songs in dressing room before game time & intermission.
Get Eddy x sturgeon fishing x elvis songs & give some time for young guys to develop as FA says = Stanley Cup.
Go Canucks Go ! Go Canucks Go. Maybe beer sales go up when the Canucks are in a slump.

If things do not change the Canucks will be viewing Leaf game film to see how to get wins.   :)

Canucks made amends for their last game's performance. Another win in the bag.

Nice win by the Canucks over the Sabres.
Hamus (sp?) was body slammed against the backboards. How was boarding not called?
& more surprising he got up & still could play.
Miller played super against his old team.
He concentrated & dug deep to play a full game.
60 minutes.
Will the Canucks play hard against the Rangers or get lazy & lose.
Up & down team so far this year.
0-0 in the 2nd period.
Rangers have a great goalie. Takes a very good shot to beat him.

Wow that was a super vid of the 1967 Leafs team.
No goalie masks back then.
Chris "Thanks" for sharing the Leafs Stanley Cup winning team back in 1966/67. :)
Lots of great players on both Canadians & Leafs teams.
No one ever thought the Leafs could win over the Canadians in 1967.

Today with the number of teams in the league it's amazing the Blackhawks could win multiple Cups.
Plus they still are hungry & want to win the Cup again.
