Nuckies are hitting a wall

Injuries are killing the Canucks right now.  Everyone is trying pretty hard, but Mo and the key guys on defence are really missed right now.  They’re playing not horribly, but they have to start getting some points.  ASAP.  Otherwise, the guys are going to be watching the playoffs from the golf course.  I think the [...]

Canucks fans don’t have to hurl themselves off the bandwagon just yet

I hope he stays around for a couple more [...]

I’m not one [...]

Canucks win a weird one

The game last night was a very frustrating one to watch at the time, but today it just kind of made me laugh.
What I really liked about this game:
 40+ shots on net
Pyatt had an amazing game. This is the best I’ve seen him look, I think.  When he powers to the net, good things happen.  [...]
