Nothing but love and respect for everyone in here posting your takes on the team that we love. We might not always agree or like what we read but I can truthfully say I’d rather read takes about our Great Team that is in the playoffs then reading about our team golfing this time of year! Cheers to all and I’m excited for all of us today because we deserve playoff hockey. Cheer loud, wave your towels proud! Go Canucks Go!!!! It’s going to be an amazing night tonight. I can’t wait to hear the roar of the crowd when the team steps on the ice. I hope they change it up from “Where the streets have no name” New team, new era, and it should be a new song when they come on the ice. Let’s start a new tradition. I am so pumped. It’s been way too long for a playoff game but here we are and I am sure as everyone else is, super excited.

Popular Post Rick_theRyper Posted April 21 Popular Post Share Posted April 21 "Jt Miller" "JT Miller" Good read from I mac this morning “Windows won’t last forever,” he said. “And I’m not getting into the window game and what that means, but when you look at the core here and how young they are, they’re not even in their prime yet. We can do something special here and we have to realize that. For the most part, teams . . . get their crack for only a couple years. And, again, I’m not labelling this group (limiting the window). But we’ve got a chance to win this year. We have a special team. We have our expectations, and we’re still building. “I just love the playoffs. And the older I get, the more I love them because your mindset changes. And I guarantee you it will change for every single guy in here. Once you get a taste of it one time — the city, the crowd, the away crowds . . . I burn for it. It’s the greatest feeling ever.” https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/i-burn-for-it-canucks-miller-savours-shot-to-step-up-in-playoffs/sn-amp/&ved=2ahUKEwjRv9bD1NOFAxWzOTQIHQS8Bj8Q0PADKAB6BAghEAE&usg=AOvVaw1zBfjsDew2QYTEIPCQxEMA 6 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldFaithfulcap Posted April 21 Author Share Posted April 21 (edited) It was great fun reliving the highlights hype video in my first post but i liked going back over our core drafted guys and seeing how the future is indeed now.

That was the 2006-2011 era team, this is a new era with a new identity, let's build it and not bring back the past. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker67 Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 I agree, The Streets Have No Name was the 2011 run song. I feel this year's Canucks team is getting little respect past the 1st round. They were the best team in the league all year practically, several players setting records and having a career year. Not getting the respect for being good, kind of like a rock band that started their career around these parts. Maybe the Canucks should use a Nickelback song and just piss everyone off as they go on a deep run. What the hell... "Burn it to the Ground" 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post -dlc- Posted April 21 Popular Post Share Posted April 21 OK, I'm so nervous. Anxious. Restless. I write to pass the time away and I'm reflecting on it all so here's my two hundred cents. I love this team. I love the playoffs. I love y'all. I remember ‘94 like it was yesterday We were in the cup final and “you know he will play” Province posters arrived each game at the door We collected them all and each game there were more The living room was plastered, everywhere they hung And out on the streets we hugged and we sung This was our team and, to us, this was new How far would they go, how would they do? Along for the ride, we took it all in And game after game, by gosh! they would win! As our team inched closer to the ultimate prize It wasn’t expected, was such a surprise And with window markers the team logo I drew On the front bay window, so everyone knew As they’d drive by our house, they’d honk as they passed For four great series this excitement would last But to our disappointment our team fell just short Just how it is in this cruel world of sport Then in 2011, it would all start again That year I was lucky, many games I’d attend Burr, Juice and Kes were our favourites (though pests) With Luongo in net we had goaltending’s best And again, the buzz grew as the team gathered steam Entered as top dogs, stage was set so it seemed And who could forget when the dragon was slayed? In one of the best games Burr'd ever played Knocked out the champions in a dogpile of glory The team was writing a magnificent story It wouldn’t be easy and again they’d be tested By mean predators and waters shark infested But again they prevailed and pushed through like winners Until they met a team full of dirty f’n sinners Broke every single rule but Daddy was a member Of the NHL brass who were cold as December Cute little punches and goalie stick whacks What a bunch of unruly obnoxious damn hacks (pause, breathe….it still hurts to this day) But they beat us in a game that left us in shock As we counted the seconds tick down on the clock Our fine city fell apart as we watched on TV Seemed so surreal….how on earth could this be? In a few short hours the atmosphere would turn From jubilance and joy to a city that would burn Like a bad nightmare where we couldn’t awaken It felt devastating, like we’d been forsaken That pain really hurt, it stuck for awhile For a long time was hard to muster a smile But looking back that team was worth celebrating And once again, we find ourselves waiting What will our boys do? How will they fare? It’s a nervous time but damn, WE’LL BE THERE! And as diehard fans, for us nothing better Than sunshine and wearing our favourite team’s sweater So enjoy the game folks, please just drink it all in Even if we should lose (screw that WE WILL WIN) One day we’ll look back on our team and this year As a great ride together and to that I say….cheers! 3 1 6 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJockitch Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 I think we carry the play, but hit a hot goalie and loose on a late PP after a questionable call on Myers. 3-1 after en goal. We sweep the next 4 to win in5. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker67 Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 It's the most wonderful time of the year.... 4 playoff games in a row today, my plans for the day, finishing off with the Canucks 1st home playoff game in 9 years. So excited. Thinking Joshua and Garland will have a great round, Quinn Hughes will be on a mission. Punishing hits from the giants on D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for writing and posting this @-dlc-, I remember the Canucks from way back in the very early days, lived through 1982, 1994, 2011 and the stanzas above resonate - a bit painfully, even to this day. Let's say the last chapter to glory is still being written ... this year! GO CANUCKS GO!!! Edited April 21 by Rocket-68 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
