Hopefully this is the year the Canuck's finally put it all together. They have a great team. There's some good competition out there this year no doubt. Looking forward to it.

Certainly not. Although I do not believe anyone would have been surprised with 1-1. Do not be suprised if they get back into this series and advance.

we go down 3-0 and everyone watching will think back to the 1981 team that made the miraculous Stanley Cup run...

but watching that team..... they were a overachieving team with heart...

this team is a very talented, but under achieving team with no heart... and it has been that way for many years...

Luongo has been good, but Quick is scary. I under estimated the Kings as a fan. They're a good team. I still have faith though. Big game coming up.

We'll have to see if tonight's goalie change has the desired effect! Definitely a must win for Cancuks!

Canucks bow out in 5. Game 5 was a thriller. Quick and Schneider stole the show as they both had great games. Unfortunately for the Canucks, the Kings scored in the OT frame to end the series.

Schneider proved that he should be the team's starter. I think Luongo will be on the trading block. You just can't have your starter sitting on the bench. He was brought into Vancouver to win a cup and he hasn't delivered.

Kudo's to the Kings. I wish them luck. Canucks' just didn't have it. Some serious evaluations need to happen this summer. I'm happy rolling with Schneider and the Sedins. Everyone else is up for grabs. Luongo played good the first two games and he was a real pro. But his time is up. Vancouver needs to get bigger.

Return to Vancouver Canucks
