Well, Shari, it was so bad that Luongo actually played better in game 3 when he was giving up 8 goals.
He finally got pulled in this one. 4-0.

The Canucks finally ran into a team that plays playoff style hockey. Not finesse, just grinding it out in the corners and taking the Canucks finesse
players out of the game in front of the net.
The Sedin brothers got the Canucks this far........unfortunately, the Sedin sisters showed up for the Finals.

I hear they're going shopping at the mall today for some new Boston style dresses before going back to Canada........
As for the Bruins....... they're just Hockey Brut's that's what this game is all about..
Don\'t mess with the old dog...... Age and skill will always overcome youth and treachery! Brilliance only comes with age and
experience.....  ....  ....
Are you getting the most out of life OR is life getting the most out of you ?? 
Twenty years from now you\'ll be more disappointed by the things you didn\'t do then the things you did.

B C is so charged that i'm planning an evacuation route if the place explodes when the Canucks win or even if they lose. The buzz is high pitched and
intoxicating.

If you don't think the Canuck players are "grinding it out" I have no idea what sport you've been watching! You do NOT get this far in the Stanley Cup
without a lot of blood, stitches, and guts...no matter who you are or
what team you are on. Not all players grind and not all players have finesse...it's a mix. The Oiler's dynasty had Semeko for Wayne, Kuri, and the
rest. The Canadians had Tremblay, Savard, Reisbough to protect Lafluer and Shutt......and Clarke Gilles and Nystrom for Potvin, Bossy, and Trottier
for the Islanders four (?) cups.
Sisters...yeah...right...your brute argument died with the Flyers almost 40 years ago and it ain't coming back.
Go Canucks!

Yeah...just like Jousting with armor and lances.
The "hyped up men with sticks" elicits a picture of a labor rally in the 30s.
Anyway...I'm jes funnin' wicha about all this. I know the Stanley Cup events are the most civilized of the sport.
I wouldn't be so understanding and gracious if we were talking about boxing or any other of the blood-lust activities.

Five minute major penalty to Dennis: "chain pulling".

The tension here today is too much to take. It's 1:00PM here and downtown is already shutting down streets, The RCMP have ordered all downtown liquor
stores to be closed by 3:00PM today. God help us if we win it all tonight, might be a good time to head for the hills of Loreto today
GO CANUCKS GO !!!!!!!!

Wouldn't you rather win it at home? Kinda like watching the NBA finals last night and the home crown emptying the stands with three minutes to go.
Game 7, in VCBC, now that would be exciting.

Yes, in a perfect world Santiago that would be the dream come true. But after 2 months of play-off tension, we just want it taken care of. Game 7
against Chicago was too much for the old ticker. Yes, we have a mulligan but why use it if you don't have to. Game 7's don't favor any one team.
Besides, that would really stick it to those big old bad BRUINS
