Some Clarity?
Posted on 22 Mar 2009 by Mark Gage.
“It’s only fitting that in Vancouver’s worst game of the season, the Canucks gave up their worst goal of the season. That goal, the one that will have Canucks fans cringing for decades to come, was a prime example of how much puck luck Vancouver had on this night in a 5-1 loss to Phoenix.” Those are the words of the most over-dramatic hockey writer I have ever read, one...

Lui Steps It Up
Posted on 20 Mar 2009 by Mark Gage.
The good news keeps flowing for the Canucks as their best player was their best player for the first time in a long time in last night’s 3-0 shutout win over the visiting St Louis Blues for the team’s 11th straight win at GM Place.

Statement Revised?
Posted on 10 Mar 2009 by Mark Gage.
The more things change, the more they remain the same.

“Everyone knows the Sharks are in town. Everyone knows they're one of the best teams in the league. We really want to have a good effort and show every team around the league that we're for real and we can compete with the best.” Heading into last night's game against the Sharks the Media kept saying that this would be a statement game, a game that would tell ...

Reaction to the lack of moves, as in a big fat zero of them, made by first year GM Mike Gillis on yesterday's Deadline Day has been close to 50/50 in this city.
