Blane Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Good to have ya on board Abe. The West looks damn exciting for those last few playoff spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 The East is all about who screws up the least, not who plays the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbeLincoln Posted March 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 thanks blane!i really think that no fans are confident in their NW team's playoff chances right now ('specially the Canucks and Oilers).... but just like any good episode of Scooby-Doo, the suspense makes it so much more enjoyable.5 points between 1st and 4th in the NW...doesn't get much tighter than that!

AbeLincoln Posted March 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Mike Cvic running interference and Anson Carter's goal-mouth gaff aside I was pretty impressed with that game. Despite a tonne of Oiler pressure, the Canucks mostly kept their composure ('specially in OT!)and were able to bounce back after a couple of goals that would have normally made them fold. Keith Carney is a pretty solid D-man, too. Glad they gave Smitty his SO goal, made the win that much better! Can't believe they haven't figured out Mr. Ruutu's patented shoot-out Freeze to the Backhand move yet ;-) This picture is worth at least a coupla words...

Blane Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 with the time difference it's almost impossible to catch these games. Thank god for highlight reels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbeLincoln Posted March 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 having moved out here from K-town, I must admit it was a selling point for me not to have to stay up 'til 2am to watch a Canucks game... the other selling point was that my wife and son were coming out here with or without me and then there's that bit about the ralph bucks.... sweet!

AbeLincoln Posted March 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2006 (edited) 2 fer 1 in this series is the least I would've wanted from the Canucks this week. Close but not quite...My highlight for the game:Sign in the crowd reads "Let's drop some Coilers on the Edmonton Oilers!". I'm bringin' this to my next game at Rexall!No bitchin', no moanin'....therefore, I ain't a fargin' Oilers fan...

badams Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 I'd like to see the Canucks do well but I hate Matt Cooke. I'd like to see this happen to him... Just substitute Tucker for Cooke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbeLincoln Posted March 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 Canucks suck! So does Yarker. yeesh... things could only hurt more if I learned to do this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbeLincoln Posted March 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 Just substitute Dustin Brown of the Kings for Kovalev, and the picture works...It also helped spur the Canucks on to 4 unanswered goals, so I won;t bitch too much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbeLincoln Posted March 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 I'm happy when the boys can win the 7-4 games and the 2-1 games.I'm unhappy with this regional broadcasting crap... thankfully I don't hafta stomach another Saturday Night Canucks game with Greg Millen droning on about "puck pressure" (his newest and most favourite buzz phrase) and his intimate knowledge of the officials...yeesh...

M.O.B.E Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 the Pens should resign Millen. They could use his "experience" between the pipes...what do goalies know anyways??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbeLincoln Posted March 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 i've got no problems with Kelly Hrudey (I actually repsect him more as a HNIC personality than a goaltender), or a guy like John Davidson, but Millen makes me want to throw sharp little rocks at his eyes...Maybe Pittsburgh would be a good place for him.... better yet, how 'bout St. Louis?
