Also momentum can swing the other way really fast from game to game based on how you adapt to the other teams' play. That's why I think it is somewhat overrated. OK maybe not the last 2 games, but the first 3.

You know, I think we're making Chicago look better than they are because we're too afraid to take any risk. We've shown we can beat Khabibulin, but 15 shots ain't gonna do it. AV's high pct hockey is flawed. It guarantees you don't get blown out. It doesn't always give you the best chance to win. Actually, I think Chicago's laughing at us for being so chicken shit.

^ I can agree about Chicago laughing at us for being chicken shit. Not only in the offensive department, but phyiscal too. Aren't Canucks supposed to be the bigger team?

I'm a little worried, I don't think we have a whole lot left in the tank for this game. I think Chicago have us figured out, and we don't have enough depth to really make any significant changes in our playing style. We clearly are outgunned for offense.

I hope I'm wrong though. Go Canucks!

Dont have enough depth? One of the things we had going into the playoffs was mass amouts of depth. Our style of play is making it so we dont have 20-30 shots on net per game and that needs to change ASAP. Canucks also need to learn NO MISTAKES, because in the playoffs any team can capitalize on that.

Clearly outgunned? No Names have been scoring for Shitcago, where has towes been? does he even have an assist?

I can say the same for the canucks offense though... they have been hiding in the rough and its about time the pop out and capitalize on game 6 and 7. IF they dont we lose. Simple as that.

Sedin,Sedin,Burrows,Kesler, Sundin..... im calling you out! We need top notch hockey from you guys.

Sedin line, we need you guys to control the puck... Do some cycling keep the puck away from Shitcago as much as possible. Cycle the puck create some offense and that will lead to goal chances.

Kesler Sundin, STEP IT UP!! simple as that.. create a bigger faster presence on the ice and the puck will follow. Push Byfugly around get in Shitcago's face! BUT DONT CREATE PENALTIES! be smart. Kesler and Sundin are the 2 most knowledgeble when they are on the ice together, IMO. They need to use that knowledge and skill.


I think any fan has the right to be worried going into an elimination game, But its no reason to doubt everything good we have had in the past season. Have some hope... it goes along way. I believe

i agree momentum is overrated at times
like look at game 2 to game 3

they beat us in game 2 by a wide margin

and in game 3 we controlled the 3-0 lead well
3-1 to be exact.

no, that only happened because Canucks were so damn close...

Chairman Kaga 05-11-2009 02:26 PM

Random stat from CBC sports reporter Karin Larsen - Canucks have been in the lead 90% of the time against Chicago

I wouldn't be surprised considering what happened after the game 5 loss

That's what frustrates me the most.

On paper, we're slightly better than the Hawks.

We scored first in 4 out of the 5 games.

We've had the lead (even 2-3 goal leads) for a majority of the time.

And yet we find ourselves having to force a game 7.

:mad:

BlackV62K2 05-11-2009 02:52 PM

We need Willie to smarten the fuck up. I havent been impressed with the way he has been playing.

In order for Canucks to win this series, they will have to not be the Canucks for the last 2 remaining games... seems like a longshot to me.

Have you even watched the Canucks? Didn't you see in Game 4 that we were winning 1-0 with 3:00 remaining in the third and Marty Havlat comes along and gets a goal. Then the Hawks end up scoring early in OT so the series is now 3-2 for the hawks for some fucked up reason. :mad:
