I'm glad you guys are winning but to think you found line combos is funny.

That's some stiff competition!(Kesler's return has that kind of effect ).

Luongo is way better with scrub backups.

Not until we see the game against Chicago and Anaheim. Then maybe a person can make an opinion on the cup. We know they can beat scrub but can they beat the top of the west. We have always had problems with both teams. Lets see some deep digging. We know certain players will dig deep in big games now I want to see others dig deep in these games.

Not to be a d ick. But your ship has sailed. My guess is LA could repeat. But if Cros comes back for the playoffs Iggy gets a cup.

The favourites in the west have to be CHI or LA. But I don't see any other teams in the west that I'd put ahead of the Canucks and the Canucks could take either of those two teams if they stay healthy and Schneider plays lights out. A hot goalie plus staying relatively healthy are huge factors in the playoffs.

I think the edition of Sestito and Kassian has given us the size to compete with St'L and LA this year.

Last year even in the regular season we had no answer for those two teams . This year we match up ok . Anything can happen

Is this finally the year when the Canucks goal-tending gets it done? I feel like it but I've felt that before. They have enjoyed 2-3 seasons with arguably 1A and 1B goaltending and this year with $9.3m (?) spent at that position but probably next year there will be a significant drop off and a clear #1 and #2 goalies. So PLEASE take advantage of that and lets see a hot goalie a la Kirk Maclean.

True! But god forbid the LA goalie or the Chi goalie plays lights out...

STL and LA still both scare me though. I'd rather play CHI than LA actually. And I'd rather play SJ or Minny over STL in the 1st round. I really hope that CHI and STL somehow end up playing each other in round one. The one team no one is talking about is Detroit, but they've had our number this year and Datsyuk can dominate a game.

We aren't the favourites that's for sure. Then again, if not for Crosby's injury 2 years ago we wouldn't have been favourites then neither. I think we're a top 7ish team, and i'll take my chances.

LA I could see, but Quick doesn't look as dominant as last year after his back surgery. Crawford or Emery, I just don't see either outplaying Schneider.

Like I said I don't care .If any team finds their game they can win . If they struggle with their scoring it doesn't matter if we play Abbottsford Heat. If their game is on then they can contend .

Watch Lu will win the cup this year but the bad news is he will win in riding the pine
