Corey, Getzlaf and Kesler will solve that problem in no time.

I think they just have to play their game and keep moving the puck. He is a distraction, but you can't let it distract you from playing your game.

If the Flames take a good size lead tonight do we see Beesqua get the flippers off with him?

No kidding. It's as if WD is purposely trying to sabotage the only line we have going for us. That said, it is the only line that is performing so it seems he's desperately trying to get at least one other line going by spreading out the "talent".

"that boy Beiksa plays tough Canadian hockey. Just the way I like it. I tell you Ron they just don't make players like that anymore"

All apart of the plan to rest guys for next year.......

Thanks Carol. My dad and I will be cheering tonight regardless of the outcome, so long as the team shows up to play. Also thank you for using the physiologically correct term of "biceps" rather than "bicep." Pet peeves...

It's no secret Hartley is a good coach with credentials, WD's are impressive as well for a rookie coach, he's just not adjusting well in this series and he's learning some lessons from a veteran NHL bench boss. He will be watching lot's of film this summer.

It would be nice if WD just went all out in the first, try to get a 1-2 goal lead by stacking the Sedin line and playing them 10 minutes. Build a lead or some momentum before rolling the lines later on

I remember when crawford and hartley used to go at it behind the benches. Always remember when crawford did the puppet string motion to hartley one game. Hartley went nuts.

I guess it was in reference to hartley being a puppet for Avalanche management. I guess that was the reason crawford left the avalanche franchise at the peak of his own success.

I completely agree. Vrbata should have been fixed on that line a long long time ago, especially during our lengthy scoring droughts. I do understand that he's a rookie coach, but he's not a spring chicken to hockey. Why not try the more obvious set-up, the one that had been working for you during the season, before resorting to creative line shuffling.

Maybe you need a lesson on how we do things here on Canucks thread.
Monday- Hope
Tuesday- Bipolar
Wednesday- WTF ( usually a result of the bipolar comments on Tuesday)
Thursday- Turrets
Friday- trade everyone- fire everybody.
Weekends- we observe several religious holidays and refrain from making it any worse for Carol or the regular posters here.

Now that I have fed the troll please piss off and let us enjoy our turrets Thursdays.

WD should be a sh*t rat tonight and figure out a way to wind him up, always a good way of changing momentum.

It's unbelievable someone would even post that.
