Carol Schram: Bachman shines as Vancouver Canucks make SoCal sweep with win over Ducks Richard Bachman made 43 saves and Bo Horvat scored his 20th goal of the season as the Vancouver Canucks won back-to-back games on the road for the first time all season with a 2-1 victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Sunday.

Starting to think we should have been deadline buyers.

Nice work playing spoiler to the ducks last night.

Young guys are looking more confident.

Agreed. Love the energy, speed and action.

I think of it as the Toronto effect.
Once you're no longer in the running for the playoffs, the pressure is off and you can start playing a little looser.

plus the younger kids are given some leesh and are playing for next year, contracts and roster spots.

They shouldn't have been buyers but they should have kept Burrows and Hansen. They are exactly the type of veteran leaders a young team needs in the playoffs.

Ugh. Reading that made me more uncomfortable than listening to my dad do accents in front of other people. No more puns please

Go look it up. Last season, we had last-place-overall sewn up - until we won both meaningless games on a late-season California road-trip. And, those two wins almost surely cost us Laine or Matthews.

I wonder what winning both meaningless games on a California road-trip will cost us this year?...

Why does this team always do the worst thing possible?

I didn't realize Goldobin is only on the first year of his ELC.

you are doing it all wrong. trick of the trade. When you order Chinese food over the phone, give a Chinese last name. First name doesn't matter. This post isn't racist because I am a Mutt and part Chinese.
