I'm liking their new style of play under Tortilla. There's some fire there that's been lacking the last season or two.

They just have to get the powerplay up and running.

Burning others shit down such a warrat move

We don't know what our limits are, so to start something with the idea of being limited actually ends up limiting us.

I'm sitting at the light at Clark and 1st this afternoon and a big dually rolls up with some native imagery on it. The driver's window rolls down, a big cloud of smoke rolls out and there's Gino.
He was before my time as a Canucks fan, so I had no idea who he was until watching Bure's ceremony last night. Seeing him in person the next day was a bit odd.

here you go … enjoy..

Gino taking on the whole team - forgot about that one.

I was sitting beside him and Shawn Antoski at the NBI and they are big guys. They have that big, fit build you don't want to mess with.

Kinda lame that video was only fights. Gino could do more than that, he could actually play too. Would have been nice if the vid had had some goals and hits in it.

I just noticed that typo now. It would have gone unnoticed if you didn't mention it.

Now it shall be left in the sacred annals of NBR for all time and for all to see and judge.

You misspelled teh anals.

that's exactly the type of play that should warrant a suspension. who cares that he missed, that's intent to injure and should be 5 games min.

This! Can't believe he got away with that, only because Henrik is too slippery

How much does it suck being in the Pacific Division? The Nucks are 10-5-1, a great start and good enough for second in the East and all that gets us is 4th place in the Pacific. They better do some damage in this next road trip. A win against the Sharks would be nice.

I was thinking much the same thing. They had a few shaky games earlier, but if you cut them some slack for adjusting to the new coach and just look at the last 10 or so, they've been playing a good game. Good enough to make a mockery of the top eastern team and put together a very good result on the eastern road trip. But here in the Pacific they're just good enough to be average!

This 4 game trip is going to be quite telling in how far this team has come…I hope!

I'll say!! The three teams above them in Pac Div, plus LA just below them - LA not doing as well overall but always seem to bamboozle the kinux.

Booth has been sent to Utica for "conditioning". That's got to be hard on the ego for a guy who hasn't played in the AHL for 7 years.

Or for a guy who is likely being paid more this season than half the team combined will be!

Maybe that part of the world is more accepting of baiting and killing a bear though. Haha.

Wrong. Always.
