Popular Post NHL Tyranny Posted January 19 Popular Post Share Posted January 19 My weekly calls with my dad no longer dwell on the woes of the Nucks and future year forecasts. So weird and so awesome. Now we debate whether they are ahead or behind the Jets... GCG 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirotashi Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 (edited) The people saying dont take the coyotes lightly have it right. You know what the difference between much vaunted us and low lowly coyotes? 7 loses. So yeah... stir down your enthusiasm if you need to like i do. According to my leaf buddies in my hockey chat im a bit much rn. I like to think everytime i start to think, we're fancy pants now, I like to imagine a voice that whispers into my ear: "So are the Jets..." always takes a little off the shine and brings me a little closer to reality.

He lives in Winnipeg (where I'm originally from), and he's a Jets fan, but he really likes the Canucks too and even stays up to watch the games. Kind of nice to be talking about how well our teams are doing these days. Would really like to see a VAN-WPG conference final next spring. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

igorwasgreat Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I hate the first game back after a road trip , a lack lustre opponent. Previous Canuck teams have been unable to rise to the occasion, we will see if this team is built differently. 5 - 1 , our team does not disappoint.

Rip The Mesh Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Predictions; I always try to do it here, admit to being a (slight) homer. I think the Nucks got this one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this league 3,4, or 5 losses and your fortunes can change dramatically. The only time I'd feel comfortable bragging is if I were the the Wings in the late 90s/2000's The old Oilers, or the Islanders, of the 80's or back when there were 16 teams or less. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way the standings are a van-wpg conference finals is very likely. A first or second wildcard team 1st round, is the goal for starters. Keep the foot on the gas to ensure this boys!!!

The Duke Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Ah we just came back from a heck of a road trip, 5 all stars, some weird travel from Buffalo to Columbus. I think we can ease up a bit and take it easy against the lowly Coyotes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
