I still maintain we need a legit scorer.

We don't need no stinkin cup

The kids were playing video games. They have finished so I was going to turn on the game but by the mood in here I won't bother.

Yeah, cups are overrated.

Boring game. No big hits no great chances

Canucks dominated the Avs that period, finally get a goal.

Roy, Foote, Blake, Hejduk, Drury... (frank)ing unreal

don't forget Tanguay was also a big part of that team and had some clutch goals (and I'm not even going to mention Raymond Bourque! wait, too late - where is the worship icon?)

Avs were only in the Nucks zone for PP's and a couple fast breaks ...should be at least 3-2 van city

Yeah, that was a great bounceback period. They need to do more of the same in the third.

Hit on Kassian didn't look dirty to me, looked like a hipcheck, Holden's leg wasn't even stuck out.

Yea I forgot about those two. I mean the collection of talent was just unreal

It looked bad at full speed, but after seeing a replay it wasn't much. At the very least it will provide a little bit of joy for the joy starved Oiler fans.

Love how much he's under that whole city's skin.

Yeah that defense is so suspect, I think they will pop a couple in ....how many saves has varlamov made where it seemed like he had no idea where the puck was ...good traffic by the Nucks

Varlamov is a damn good goalie, his numbers in recent years playing behind that defense is impressive. He did get lucky a couple of times tonight though.

It's crazy. He's a (frank)ing third liner. I get that the stick to the face on Gagne was brutal, but he isn't even there anymore and they were glad to get rid of him.


If the Canucks and Oilers ever meet in the playoffs, it might be worth getting some money together, renting a billboard near Rexall and put Kassian's picture on it.

Kassian's an ass, but I agree they need to get over it. It' not like he's done more than one thing that was considering dirty to them. I doubt any Avs fans will be pissed that he pushed Barrie around after a whistle after Barrie hit him earlier in the game.

Kassians Line must have awesome possession numbers. Incredible cycling in this game.

Bo!!!!


Edit: No point on that play.

That's usually a sign of good positioning I guess

I'm really starting to like this Dorsett fellow.

I thought Kassian looked up to see if the ref was looking
