hmmm this can't be good for the team... I know we have nothing to play for other than some stats, but losing 2 games straight to the WORST team in the league is definitely not something you want to have going into the playoffs.

They better win the last 2 games or they may be carrying some of this slump into the playoffs, which won't end well at all.

[jaguar604]

If anything this is the perfect wake up call going into the playoffs. The team is mature and won't take this lightly.

boost trade value as well

"the jennings trophy winner, cory schnieder and _____ + ______ has been traded to the colorado avalanche for the 2nd overall pick"

[punkwax]

^ that's a trade I wouldn't make.

Schneider is viable trade bait for a young, proven, up and coming star in my opinion. Especially if he's packaged with others. I think I'd rather see us trade proven asset for proven asset rather than take a chance in the draft.
Posted via RS Mobile (http://www.revscene.net/forums/announcement.php?a=228)

[Hondaracer]

there's two ways to look at this, which one i prefer i dunno

we could be

A) Going into the playoffs sweeping these last 4 games, perhaps over confident and get slapped with a wake up call in the first game of the playoffs

B) Slump in the last 4, hopefully find some consistancy/motivation in the last two games, and build on that

dont really know which is preferred

[punkwax]

We've lost 2 in a row, let's win the last 2 and head into the playoffs on a high.

I'm at the next game, section 109 to see the Presidents Trophy being awarded. :fullofwin:

Hopefully so. Everybody seemed :fullofwin: in the post game interviews last game. I was thinking, yeah, whatever, just one game. They'll show the Oilers who's boss next game...

They just pissed away another game.
I am disappoint.

[Spidey]

It isn't like they folded... They played well for most of the second half of the game.. I mean shit, if Kesler got that wide open net he missed, it would be a totally different story. But you could tell guys weren't going into the corners and forechecker really hard.. you don't want what happened to Brouwer to happen to, say, Kesler.

last year they had injuries to burrows and kesler.. guys that usually dig really deep every game... You have to think that's in the back of their minds

[trancehead]

was listening to the Team1040 yesterday...and they talked about teams that are mature enough to have an on/off switch. then they talked about how detroit has been doing it for years. They sent Lidstrom down to Florida for a couple of days to chill.

Hopefully this is a case of our off switch? The core guys this year are definitely more mature and its has been shown throughout the season. Just hope that switch doesnt get stuck.

hopefully the canucks can learn something from the past 2 games, and they better not play like shit during the playoffs.

Who's still worried about the Blackhawks?

Now Brouwer is injured. They're already without Bolland, who was huge against the Canucks, with a concussion and Patrick Sharp is out too.

But if Dallas gets in that last spot, it will just be lol's...when we sweep them and outscore them 20-5 like during the season.

I sort of think of those as different goals.

The video I posted is an example of a 5-man unit with the smarts, vision and skill to execute a perfect passing play. Probably an example of a set play practiced over and over and over.

The Sedins? Well, that shit is just hax. :fullofwin:

lol Turco, awesome :fullofwin:

Chicago Blackhawks goalie Marty Turco(notes) hasn't started a game since Feb. 11 and hasn't appeared in a game since St. Patrick's Day, so the veteran has to find ways to keep himself amused on the bench.
Like, apparently, making wagers with opposing fans during games.
The photo above appears to depict Turco and a Montreal Canadiens fan passing a $5 bill through the glass at Bell Centre on Tuesday night, when the Blackhawks lost to the Habs, 2-1, in overtime. A Montreal season-ticket holder named Robert called in to "Game Points with Matthew Ross" on Team 990 after the game, and spun a humorous tale of Turco making bets with him (and eventually losing in overtime):

For the video challenged, Robert claimed he bet Turco, after Michael Cammalleri's(notes) goal for Montreal made it 1-0 in the first period, that Chicago wouldn't score again. When Patrick Kane(notes) of the Blackhawks tied the game, he passed Turco a $5 bill with "Habs Rule" written on it.
They went double-or-nothing after the first period, and then triple or nothing for the third; and then, in overtime, he gave Turco 5-to-1 odds that the Canadiens would win the game.
"And he took the bet!" said the caller. "When the Canadiens scored in overtime, he handed me back a wad of $5 bills and inside was that $5 bill that I gave him. He crossed out 'Habs Rule' and wrote 'Turco Rules.'"
Via Moe Khan of Team 990, who also provided the audio, what he claims is that $5 bill:

Greatest fan story of the season? You bet your defaced Canadian currency it is.
As Adam Jahns of the Chicago Sun-Times writes, Turco probably didn't expect this interaction to go viral, and the NHL will probably frown upon it if the caller's claims are accurate. Fact is that the Exhibit 14.2 in the NHL CBA states: "Gambling on any NHL Game is prohibited."
Which is a shame, of course, because there isn't a hockey fan in North America with an ounce of joy in their soul that doesn't think Marty Turco is Capt. Awesome after hearing this story. If there was ever a "lighten up" provision in those regulations, now would be the time to use it. Because, as you can see, Turco Rules ...

There was a nice one I just saw a day ago, but I can't remember which game.
I think Burrows scored.

Daniel Slaps it down from center, Henrik receives the puck from the bounce,
passes to Daniel, passes to Burrows... something like that.

Anyone have that page with all the Canucks HD highlights posted on the CDC forum??

I refused to cheer or hope they would win. I simply explained I'm a Canucks fan and I will not cheer for any other team even if they were a Canadian Team. I will gladly cheer for Canada when it's the Olympics, World Juniors etc but this is the NHL.

Media statement from Manny Malhotra
Wednesday, 06.04.2011 / 5:39 PM / News
Vancouver Canucks

The past three weeks have been a very emotional time for myself and my family. I owe a great deal of thanks to a number of people. First and foremost my wife Joann who has been a pillar of strength for me and kept me focused on the best possible outcome at all times. Thank you to my teammates, coaches and training staff, your care and concern has meant a great deal to me. The Aquilini family, Mike Gillis and Laurence Gilman have made my recovery a priority; I have received the best possible medical care throughout this entire process. It is truly a blessing to be part of an organization with such quality, caring people and I can't thank them enough.

The NHL is a tight-knit community. I would like to thank all the players, coaches and GM's around the league, some I've never even had the chance to meet, who extended their regards and best wishes for a speedy recovery. My most heartfelt and sincere thank you to all of the incredible fans in Vancouver and around the league for keeping me in your thoughts and prayers. Your messages were a daily reminder of what a privilege it is to play for you.

I will forever be grateful to the incredible group of surgeons both in Vancouver and New York who performed two successful surgeries, to restore the vision in my eye. Although there is a lot of recovery and healing to take place, I am very optimistic for a good outcome. Thank you to my agent and good friend Paul Krepelka for being with me through surgery and recovery in New York. Your friendship over the years has been invaluable.

My family and I are very grateful for the patience, concern and privacy we've been shown by the media and thank you for your continued support.

I am sure that this question has been covered. Total hockey noob here.

Why does the NHL schedule their games such that each division play within themselves 5-6 games each season? Not saying the Canucks don't deserve the presidents trophy but if you play against teams that don't even make the playoffs half the time, of course your record is going to look spectecular!

Another thing that bothers me is that having Detroit and Chicago in the West is beyond me...

The divisions and how strong or weak they are evolve all the time. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad but at the end of the day you generally deserve where you land. Look at the 02-03 season, 4 of the 8 western teams in the playoffs were from the NW. How many President trophy's did Detroit win feasting on one of the worst divisions in hockey for years and during that time they were playing each team in there divison 8 times.

The majority of NHL teams are out East. Strangely, the Canucks used to be in the East Division when they joined the NHL.

The schedule was redone after the lockout to reduce costs. They said to "encourage rivalries" but that was bullshit. It was to reduce the travel costs of NHL teams so division rivals played 8 games against each other.

That was gay as hell because we had to play Minnesota all the damn time and never got to see the Caps or Pens or Habs, etc so now we play 6 division games, 4 conference games and every other team at least once (twice for three teams...I think we play the Eastern Canadian teams twice).

That really shouldn't take anything away from the Canucks season. Sure we destroyed our own division but the West is significantly stronger than the East.

[Ronin]

By the way...Mother Russia wants Shirokov back.

CHL: CSKA wants to return to Filatov and Shirokova

05.04.2011 08:28Guide CSKA interested in returning to the club forwards Nikita Filatov and Sergei Shirokov .

For 20-year-old Filatov this season in Columbus 'frankly do not specify - in 23 appearances for the Blue Jackets' power forward in the account of 7 (0 +7) points. Filatov does not shine in farm-club - Springfield, where he had after 32 games 17 (8 +9) points for performance. 25-year Shirokov once again failed to gain a foothold in "Vancouver", but rather productive playing in the AHL club, "Manitoba Moose," which in 73 games scored 55 (21 +34) points.

It is worth recalling that in Filatov sezone-2009/10 along with Albert Leshchev became chief joker army, and a wide two years ago after refusing to leave CSKA guide red and blue meet the contractual requirements of the player.

In addition, according to the Swedish Expressen, CSKA Moscow reached an agreement to move the team 32 year old striker Nicklas Persson, who for two seasons in "Naftokhimik" had 108 matches and scored 58 (17 +41) points.

I recently joined a Canucks blog so I wrote a demo of my writing style and such analyzing Shirokov and his future with the Canucks. In short...qualify the guy and trade his ass with Schnoo for whatever the Canucks need next year.

So glad to see the Ducks not take things lying down like they did last season, what a game! Score-y Perry for MVP!!

Oh and Canucks fans, you're welcome for eliminating Calgary...One more time for Tegra Devil :

Thanks for the history and rationale behind this guys. I don't really watch other teams play and don't know enough about the NHL system so I can't really see the justifications behind the weird schedule.

Yea, maybe there's minimal effects on performance. But don't you think balancing out the games are much better? In terms of knowing you apponents in the playoffs? Traveling cost can be an issue... but they ticket sales and broadcasting revenue can make up for it.

Just thinking that it will be much better if the league is more balanced out.

surpisingly not overly upset....we showed we were a very good team once things clicked...unfortunately that click happened after loosing 85% of our first 40 games.

i think a canucks vs flames first round would have been a lot more difficult than most canucks fans think.

depending on who the canucks get...chicago or anahiem, the nucks better fear anahiem...i think they will tear the canucks a new one if the nucks drift into the playoffs thinking they are the gods of the nhl

^ I would generally think the effects of burning out won't start to take it's toll until at least the 2nd round.
Ducks are a pretty good team overall though, so I can picture them riding this momentum into the playoffs for the first round at least.

That being said, I'm more worried about Selanne alone as a Canuck Killer more than the Getzlaf line to be honest.

man brodeur must be re-thinking whether or not he's still got it haha you think he might retire after an awful season for the devils and not making the playoffs?

The Getzlaf/Perry/Ryan line is the scariest oposition imo because if they go head to head with the Sedins they will all but eliminate that threat, they are one of if not the toughest lines to match up against

Canucks have signed defenseman Adam Polasek

The Vancouver Canucks announced Thursday that they have signed defenceman Adam Polasek.
Polasek, 19, recorded 39 points (7-32-39) in 61 games with the QMJHL PEI Rocket in 2010.11 to finish second in team scoring among defencemen. He led all defencemen in scoring in 2009.10 with 41 points (13-28-41) and added 91 penalty minutes.
The 6’3” defenceman dressed for the Czech Republic U18 team at the 2009 U18 World Junior Championships, recording five points (2-3-5) in six games.
The Ostrava, CZE, native was originally selected 145th overall by Vancouver in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft.
It’s believed to be a three-year entry-level deal worth $1.835 million. Polasek would make $65,000 per year in the AHL.

That's complete bullshit. There was clearly NO intent to injure. He went in for a hit and it was Eberle that leaned forward. If he didn't put himself in that position then it would have been a perfect shoulder to shoulder hit.

I'm surprised at the suspension. I thought it was a dirty hit, but I think a suspension would have only occurred if Eberle was injured. Since he shook it off right away, the suspension is severe.

Any player who contributes to the scourge of headshots in the NHL should be disciplined. Unfortunately this time the league got the wrong man. Eberle caused this to happen with a stupid, irresponsible play. Torres should not be accountable for Eberle's mistake. You turn your back, skate up the middle with your head down, reach low for a puck in traffic or admire your pass...you are part of the problem and punishment for your actions should be part of the cure.

Heard someone on the team say he got 4 (rather than 2) because the next 2 games are mean nothing games for the Canucks. So the real 2 games are in playoffs. B-Mac said it made a bit of sense, but if that's the way the NHL is thinking they can go fuck themselves.
