And sad thing is that phaneuf hit would probably be considered a headshot/elbow nowadays.....as well as all the stevens hits obviously
I can't remember if it was Bert or someone else but MacInnis got taken out with a big hit as well and didn't return.

kind of weird but would be cool to see it rolling around on the streets

"NBC Sports and VERSUS has converted a Zamboni onto an ice cream truck for the playoffs; the plan is to have it show up with short notice at playoff games during the first round; handing out free ice cream (this man will handle the free candy) with the help of "a local NHL legend," and aren't we all curious to see what qualifies as a "legend" these days."

I think you and I were amongst the very few who stuck up for Gillis when he first got hired. Not many people had confidence in his abilities.

I'm a little worried that the Canucks may not have the toughness needed to go all the way - both physically and mentally. Only time will tell. I hope they stay healthy. I remember Linden playing with cracked ribs, bleeding, and downright beat up, but he continued to play his heart out. Kesler is like that, but how many others have that kind of toughness? All the stats, trophies, and awards in the regular season mean nothing in the playoffs. First place, eighth place......... doesn't mean dick. Every team is going to step it up............. so nervous now. Fuck, I hope the Canucks blow out the blackhawks in game one.

i agree on the toughness part but our mental strength is a LOT better this year. also, others have pointed out that detroit has minimal toughness as well and have won several cups (as we all know). i have a lot of confidence in this year's squad over last year's for sure. our defense and goaltending are excellent, our top 2 lines are a force to be dealt with and the 3rd and 4th line have been able to contribute (better with manny of course) significantly more than last year.

sedin-sedin-burrows
samuelsson-kesler-higgins
raymond-hodgson-hansen (torres after game 2)
oreskovich-lapierre-glass

ehrhoff-edler
hamhuis-bieksa
ballard-salo

luongo-schneider

now, i know as the long time fan you are, you (and many of us) are approaching this with cautious optimism. but you have to admit, you like our chances

I'm guessing he'll be with Gillis most games.
is there a rule regarding LTIR plays being able to stand behind the bench?

I do like our chances, but like you said, I've seen things crumble down like a tonne of bricks before my eyes, leaving me to wonder what the hell happened.

I like your optimism. I hope you are 100% right on this. God, I don't want to relive the last one. It was so devastating..............

It was..............just...............so...........fucking...............painful.





I hate Messier..... I hate that douchebag..... I hate everything about him. Especially when he ended up as a Canuck. I hate that fokker............. did I mention I hate him?

FUCK YOU, Messier!!!!!!!!
