I met Mike Gillis, his wife and kid, some dude that looks AV...Maybe his bro? the older Canucks owner, Ryan Walters, Sedin (who were wearing the same jeans and polo shirt lmao) and Salo. I missed the rest of the team because I was upstairs at the lounge when they checked in. They had one security guard walking around the lobby because most of the guys were going down to use the spa so I didn't really want to go down there and start bugging them. I tried taking pictures but my iphone sucks indoors at night. I did chat it up with Gillis at some "who's who of Toronto" type lounge/rest inside the hotel. He said he was looking forward to the game tonight and decided to bring his wife and kid along for the road trip. He was later joined by 3 other guys, not sure who they were but they sat at the table beside us for about an hour or so.

Around 9ish I decided to get my rental from the valet and head back to the airport because my flight was at 11 so as I get in my car I hear someone screaming "Sundin", I look out the window and it's Mats standing right beside the main entrance signing an autograph for some guy. I hop out, walk up but the security guard is ego tripping telling me I can't take a picture or ask for an autograph. Mats tells the security guard to relax and says "sure man, I’ll take a picture with you". He’s actually a very nice guy; he was smiling the whole time and made a joke about how the iphone cam is crap. I had the valet guy snap a few pictures on my iphone but only 1 turned out;

the first few are from last year's pre-season in Victoria. Saw them on a friends' facebook a while ago.

The ones with SOB and Wellfed are different.

Game time soon! I hope Sundin scores a hat trick :lol

F that, I hope he scores 5 goals and someone wins that safeway millionaire thing.

Geezuz, that Don Cherry truly is a legend in his own mind. What's with the built-in neck brace on his shirt? Dog on the ice. Wait, this is at some other rink. LOL.

I rarely watch him on CBC, but it looks like he's gone from wild to out of control. Oh well, I guess crazy sells.

Uh oh. Luongo is wearing his new mask

Class act by the fans to give Sundin a good standing "O". Then its back to booing him once the puck dropped afterwards. LoL.

^ HAHA yea

dam 1-0 still lots of time though

Not a great period from the Canucks.

Canucks looked lackluster in the first. They better turn it up.
Is it just me or does Jason Blake have some enormously puffy eyebags?

Brad May needs to be rocked by someone. SOB perhaps? Although Ohlund has been throwing his weight around..... just misses more than he actually hits.

Might be because of his leukemia treatments.

Lu should've had that. :(

Wow.. Can't believe that SHG went through Luongo.. Aiyaaaaaa!

So far it looks like the Canucks are barely holding on.

That's like the 3rd time Lu's let in a goal like that this month.

theres a period left!

probably can catch up

Oh man, that looked painful. I hope Mitchell's ok.

Yes 4 mins PP. THEY BETTER SCORE

Pretty non-threatening PP so far. Come on guys!!

WHat a tip!!!

BURROWS IS A MONSTER
