Slow day, indeed. Probably fitting, since the Canucks are playing PHX tonight

I'd have to go with Scooby, as well. PKer will need a big week offensively, and from his goalies—hits and blocked shots are almost gimme's for Scooby.

4 shots on net and things would be a lot different. Franking getzlaf and Bergeron had to go day to day on me

It's actually 5 shots, and that would have only tied the SOG category, making the final score 5-3 rather than 6-3.

You also forget that I missed dressing a full lineup for a day, as well. There are always excuses

I'm just razzing, PKer. It was a close match.

I can't believe I lost.
My guys did not step up last week, just an awful showing.

I feel left out with all this pool talk.

Another pool for the playoffs?

kesler back in the lineup...prepare for a team letdown lol

in all seriousness, hopefully the canucks can forge some chemistry together over the last 10 and take it deep into the spring

Apparently I didn't even make the playoffs

Not sure if I should bother dressing anyone this week against Hertz, what's the point?

Where the hell is that blue & green glasses wearing, homer blogger with zero class who entertains an arrogant bunch of rioters & pyromaniacs.

I can't figure it out, maybe Nucker can organize something with a few more teams?

Kesler skating with Kassian and Raymond.

Looks like we will roll 3 decent lines.

if you need more people I would do a team.

Ian put up a new blog you fukking slug.

or i'll have to start arguing that AV shouldn't be fired just to get some convo going in here. don't tempt me!

Keep Kes off the pk until playoffs.

Looks as though I'm going to have to fire Ian, again.
Scoob start preparing a game day blog. Thanks.
Vintage, you're the new Mod.
Vantel, Cosmos for everyone!!

So, Kesler in the lineup?

Wonder what kind of shape he's in. 16 minutes?

Wonder if he'll do a better job of shutting down our top 6 or theirs...

Just a follow up to my rant last week; on the Oiler/Kings story on TSN there are 7 pages of comments. Literally every 3rd comment is from a canucks 'fan' telling the Oiler fans how bad their team and city are. It makes real Canuck fans like you look bad to the rest of Canada considering it was a game between the Oilers and Kings......thank you for accepting my apology as well.

Having Roy around should be huge for Kesler's game.

In front of the net on the PP is a concern with Garrison's bomb.

Everytime AV has talked about easing Kes into the lineup with 15 minutes of ice time it ends up being between 19 and 21 minutes. Will it be any different this time? He has said too many times to count in post game "we obviously didnt intend to play Kes as much as we did"... followed by what ever excuse would work at the time.... like Kes said he was good or penalty trouble....

Vigneault promised Kesler wouldn’t be over-burdened on his return. That means, for the time being, no special teams and somewhere in the vicinity of 15 minutes of ice time per game. That’s also a far cry from what Kesler represents at his best because, two seasons ago, he scored 41 goals while winning the Selke as the NHL’s best defensive forward, making him one of the 10 best players in the game.

TSN comments section is the worst, don't waste your time reading that crap.

Come here and read it.

Agreed. There are lots of unpleasant fans out there, and they're not exclusive to any one team, although it may seem like some have more than others.

Best course of action is to ignore them, but that's not always easy. Other than that, just try to remember that a small group doesn't represent an entire group
