Hey, Here we can discuss any news on VC(Vancouver Canucks). With the addition of Ballard,Hamhuis,Torres,Malhotra,does Hodgson have what it takes to make the roster/lineup?
Re: VC:Regular season thread With the new acquisations,I don't think Hodgson would make it,maybe 4th line but he won't be pleased with those minutes.
Luongo is NOT captain anymore,so who will it be Kesler,Sedin..?A hard nosed aggresive player or a calm,respected swedish?
I don't think its fair to call the Sedins sisters,lol. More speculation that Henrik is to be named captain...nothing official as of yet though.
The excitement is getting to me! I hope there is no official announcement prior to the game rather we should see it when the game actually begins on who will wear the C,its going to be great.
Well,Canucks who seem to be the favorites in winning the cup before the season began haven't been playing like that at all. Very disappointing to be honest. Only the Sedins are racking up decent points,otherwise no support from the other lines(Keslers need to get going). Hurricaines tommorow,we should win,Go Canucks Go.
Can't wait. I'll still do my thing in the Hawks season thread. I'll drop by here during intermissions.
Canucks win,5-1,great overall game.Solid all around effort by the team. Bieksa played his role well tonight and wasn't a liability for a change,he made great reads on the PK and was great overall. Torres and Malhotra with some great 1 on 1 plays and downlow work to keep pressuring the young and less-than mobile Hurricane D men. Sedins were Sedins,Kesler and Raymond finally found a way to tickle the twine,Samuelsson was also quite good. Alberts looked very good,starting the scoring tonight,he was good.. Rome has an oppurtunity while Ballard is off with a little concusion. Great game boys. Back to back games on Tuesday against the Wild and Blackhawks on Wenesday. I hope the Canucks aren't tired in the Blackhawks game,I want them to be energetic about that one as I am. Lets go Canucks!
Go Wild! Like I said earlier, I'll post in the CHI:Regular Season Thread. You can make your thread here. I'll just post most of my thoughts here. Goals go in the CHI thread.
