lol I really won't. Like Lou and Lundqvist his days are done. Looking forward to the future with Marky and especially Demko.
- LordHumungous

Except that part where he had one of the best years of his career last year... And I think Lundqvist is still one of the top 5 goalies in the league when he is on, which is most of the time.

with house or wo?

Sign didn't say, but probably just the land.

There will be a lot of options next season, like both PHI goalies are FA after the season, Griess, or Chad Johnson. But I imagine, given the trend of management, they go after Pavelec or Bernier to tandem with Markstrom

Elliott will be a free agent, he might make a serviceable backup

If you go to the bush areas the stars and sky is ab amazing.

What do you all think the lines will be in practice today...? Is WD tinkering or looking for chemistry? If the roster is more balanced now will he also balance out the scoring potential? Top lines head to head tend to negate each other so wouldn't Canucks need a third or even fourth line that can score...?

All part of the plan. Lift their spirits then crush them like foul vermin that they are.

Did Dragon or kaptaan give you permission to be here?

Lou has always been decent in reg season but a standard playoff choker and it looks like Lundqvist has gone down the road of can't win in the PO's either.

Plus the FLA defense and NYR defense make them seem better than they are. Lou's numbers were always inflated in FLA even before he got to Van.

As good as Lou/Lundqvist may still be in reg season they are pretty much like Miller now good for 1-2 standard muffins per game. Can't get around it no matter how good their D make them look.

Come on now, you know Miller's the 13th forward, Markstrom's clearly the better scorer, WD wouldn't be THAT crazy would he?

I put them on my Christmas card mailing list so I think it will be all good.

Excited to play you guys tomorrow. Weird that you have not played a game yet.

Advantage Flames!

My bad, I thought Shinkaruk was playing and we would need someone to shut him down. Dodged a bullet there.

Look up Lundqvists record in the playoffs, particularly in game 7s. Guy is as clutch as they come, he's been let down by the top scorers on NYR disappearing.

you don't need any more advantages! Give it back

I've watched Lundqvist lots in the PO's my friend. his best days are done. It's always easy to say the scoring dries up when your star goalie can't make an occasional timely save.

Well chances are Johnson will get his first start.....the way Elliott has played that might be a bad thing for you!

Anyways, I imagine Elliott was nauseous from having to sit through the jerk off fest that was the opening of Rexal Place.

I googled "Lundqvist game 7" and this is the first thing that came up
http://www.thehockeynews....e-7-goaltender-in-history
Now, I'm not saying he will ever win a cup, I think they missed their chance when they couldn't handle the kings a few years back, but the guy is one of the best goaltenders in history, can't count him as done just yet.

what a load of crap that was. 7 hour opening ceremony. No better way to prepare for a game than to sit through that.

What are you referring to when you say "house?" You can't buy a 2 bedroom condo for $890,000 let alone a house. A tear down costs $1,500,000.
- CanuckDon

It's funny when you look how BC Assessment breaks down the value of vancouver homes. On a $2.6M home they break it out as:

House value: $650,000

Land value: $1,950,000

I hate those (frank)ers.

It wasn't actually 7 hours was it? I wouldn't even be that surprised if you weren't joking.

He's still very decent but watching him in the PO's last year despite the stats he was VERY leaky...all the signs are there. It is what it is happens to the best of them.

Couldn't be as bad as the gay centurion the Sens roled out one opener. That was the worst.
