CANUCKS ARE NW CHAMPS
 

Canucks are NW DIVISION CHAMPS BABY. With there home ice in the first round all it takes is an upset in the first 2 and we got home ice for quite possibly a long time in the playoffs. Canucks are taking the cup this year no iffs ands and maybes. CANUCKS 2009 STANLEY CUP CHAMPS!!!!!

don't get too excited yet. columbus has given the nucks problems all season.

ya but there a different team now. and who says theyll play columbus they could end up playing anaheim or st louis if they win there last game and columbus loses

in all honesty i would have rather played chicago than columbus, anaheim or st louis

Hype train at full speed

With a win over chicago in the first round it would have boosted there confidence alot. but havin a sweep over a crappier team wouldnt be bad also LOL

totally. one game at a time, people.

if st louis beats colorado tomorrow we will play st louis, otherwise its columbus.

we went 1 and 3 against columbus this year, 2 and 2 last year, 2 and 2 the year before
we went 2 and 2 against st louis this year, 3 and 1 last year, 3 and 1 the year before

The way i see it, thank goodness they are not playing Chicago.
Their top players are used to playing the high pressure tournament play...

....not to mention, they do have a stanley cup goaltender. I don't care if its four years back, and the team khabibulin was on was tremendous....fact of the matter is that hes still a stanley cup goalie.


Playing against columbus, even though they had trouble against them would worry me less. Throw all the experience out the door. Steve Mason, as hot as he is, is playing a whole new puck-game......and same with the rest of the team with the exception of Peca and Commodore.

I think playing st louis would be the best. Chris Mason is an inexperienced goalie and steve mason has atleast tournament play under his belt. Columbus has more depth than stlouis and could mean more trouble.

as this should be moved to the general nucks thread in VAC

regardless
the blues are similar to the jackets
young goalie, solid young team with some vets to lead the way
the blues should make a bigger splash and threat than the jackets
chicago picked up fire lately as well
and sometimes
these young kids are not tired and have all the energy to endure a longer series

Didn't think that Van would play STL, but you're absolutely right.
Chris Mason didn't play a single game with the Preds when they were in the playoffs...

...And no.....Chris Mason isn't a young goaltender either. The dude is well above his prime.

hmm i always thought that chris mason was a young goaltender. Were goin 4-0 this series baby.

where playin the blues now baby where good to go!!!!!!!

Blues vs CANUCKS Wendesday at 7 PM WOOOOTT

My only concern is that nobody expected STL to make the playoffs. Now that they are in, their season is already a success regardless of how far they make it. The Canucks, on the other hand, this is their season to make it far. Anything less, and the season will be deemed as a failure. So lotsa pressure on the Canucks!

we better take out the blues in rd 1

Todays the big day boys. I call a 4-2 win?

^ im gonna go with 3-1 nucks!

Thats what i predicted...but a 2-1 is very acceptable after watching the way they played.


I dunno....my claustrophobia seems to be kicking in; the bandwagon seems to be filling up faster than usual.

apparently the party is at 72 and Scott Rd in Surrey ...seriously

Yaaaaa eee yahhhhhhhhhh!:thumbsup:
We finally have a good chance at takin' er home...fingers crossed!

I bet you the mods will close this thread for captain obvious reasons.

2-1 WIN BABYY. Can u say 1/4 sweep complete? This friday the boys will get 50 percent done WOOOOOTTT WOOOOOTTTTT

haha the party is always there when the nucks are in the playoffs :thumbsup:
