Now, real the question is, if you take tomorrow off, watch the Canuck game and feel better soon after, can Canuckitis be put into the ICD?

If you’ve only got one special teams side going better to be the pk. PK is essential. If I recall correctly Bruins in 2011 run had a bad PP but still won the cup. Defense win championships. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHL Tyranny Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 15 hours ago, WHL rocks said: Edmonton is in there too. Only 3 Pts behind LA and on a 9 game win streak.. Long ways to go. Don't know which 2 of VGK LA EDM will play each other in 1st round.. We need to finish 1st in West to get the optimal matchup. Yup, Coilers getting love from the NHL. They were gifted a PP late in the third and then one in OT to beat the Habs in MTL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks are at the bottom of the page while teams who have stunk for large portions of the season like Edmonton and Toronto get all the recognition and for what? All their inconsistent play. I get tired of the lack of respect but whatever they can cheer for teams who have proven nothing and put all their money into four players only to watch them bow out early because the team isn’t built properly. It’s worked so well so far. Edited January 14 by Canuckfanforlife82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-dlc- Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 36 minutes ago, stawns said: Miller's hot was definitely high, but it certainly wasn't major worthy. The right call was made on that play But they looked at WHY .... Dahlin had the puck then reached as he either lost control of it or tried to push it forward. JT's elbow was in and he didn't leave his feet. It wasn't even an elbow. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post -dlc- Posted January 14 Popular Post Share Posted January 14 35 minutes ago, stawns said: It was a penalty........I think they went with the only one that would be a minor penalty So was this, but it wasn't called. So no. They don't get to make stuff up. Statements of "the ref sometimes choose not to call them" shows how corrupt it is when you can pick and choose. They chose not to call two high hits before the Miler clean hit...one on Soucy, and this one on Lafferty. Both POST whistle...not during game play like JT's clean hit was. This wasn't called...so the one on Miller shouldn't have been either. Period. You can defend the shitty refs all you want but that's on you, not us. They allowed the Sabres to hit our guys high after the play was whistled dead...but then called JT for a hit that completely Dahlin reaching for the puck. JT...elbow tucked in, didn't leave his feet. Ridiculous to try to justify this officiating. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s worked so well so far. You can see the bias even in the SN all-star headlines: THREE MAPLE LEAFS!!!, and 4 Canucks headed to the all-star game. It's not all bad, because using the same logic, the Canucks are ahead of the Jets at least as Tocchet's name comes before Bowness's when mentioning the coaches going to the all-star game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off the top of my head, I'd say the Canucks have had at least three this season called against them. The Coilers it seems get a few more of those than any team. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure why you continue to engage in whataboutism. Miller's hit was a penalty.......it wasn't severe, it wasn't a major, it was a minor penalty and the right call. It was a 2 min penalty, what's the big deal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
