(I do find it funny out how serious people get for hockey when most of them don't even play the sport.)

I play beer league. Canucks are going to get their asses handed to them.

I think it's more important that someone from our team will score at least one goal.

You would have thought the least loloungo would do after letting in 3 was to score one himself.

Too bad they can't count shootout goals in the total. They would be tops in the league for goals scored. lol.

Don't the goalies just stand there and get beat five-hole though?

Why slag free swag?:rolleyes:

ummm, as your doctor i recommend against riding with a scaphoid fracture.

I'm referring to this playoff series. Torres isn't on our team anymore, so he doesn't count.

sorry I meant in playoff games counting back to least season. Remember the Boston series? Wasn't it Lapierre that got the winner in game 1? So that holds as much weight as the goal we got last night..

Why is that funny? Do you need to be…

a dh racer to be serious about dh racing?
a racing driver to be serious about formula one?
a politician to be serious about politics?
a porn star to be serious about porn?
a woman to be serious about women?
a book to be serious about literature?
a doctor to be serious about health?

Those may not all work.
What I find funny is when people watch hockey who aren't serious about it - or at least interested in the outcome. What could be more boring than watching something you don't care about.

Or watching the Flyers play. ;)

Being an agoraphobic adrenaline junkie would be pretty convenient, because you could get your rush from just going to the store to get some milk instead of having to jump off a mountain or out of an airplane.

After I read that post, I considered putting together a list like that, but then got lazy. Well done though. That's better than I would have done

Canucks win the Stanley Cup thanks in part ( mainly )to Luongo's awesome play. Canucks trade Schneider over the summer for 3 rebuilding players…

That was a terrible game. Watching Kings vs. Blues yesterday, just better hockey in general. Im a Nucks fan but, we have to hit somebody once in a while

Ummm … Total hits by SJ, 26. By Van, 40.

No kidding!!! If only someone had pointed that out earlier!!

:grinno:

But seriously, I saw Daniel with at least 3 chances where he'd handled the puck in front of a wide open net … and hung on too long, then passed that sucker away. I mean, it's all great to have mad passing skillz, but shit son, you gots to get that "look-shoot" thing figured out soon … like yesterday.

How about that hit in the Montreal/Ottawa game? Technically, it was a clean hit per the experts. But what scary consequences. The guy who passed the puck…must feel like a load of dung right now.

Wrong. Always.

Great hit, shitty result. Gryba got two games for a clean hit. Diaz should feel like shit for sending up the middle like that. Hate to see the end result of Eller on the ice like that but it was a clean hit.

Who knew he'd be the Canucks' top goal scorer in any playoff series??
