The Sedin Experiment
With Daniel Sedin out, Henrik has found a way to keep up his point per game play, something that people didn’t think he was capable of. For their entire careers the Sedins had played together, and rarely missing a game, no one really knew just how talented the twins were individually. In ...

5 on 5 and Crease Crashing
The Canucks so far this season have relied on a powerplay that was top 3 in the league and they were making teams pay for taking penalties. As the red hot power play has cooled so have the Canucks winning ways and goal scoring. In games the Canucks haven’t had a chance to work the man ...

Hockey Sweaters
I caught a fun little conversation on twitter today about hockey sweaters. How many do you have in your closet? What player name on the back? Do you buy just your absolute favourite player or do you buy a bunch? I’m VERY selective with my sweaters. At the moment I have Matty Ohlund. ...

Forsberg vs Sundin

Cory Schneider Breaks Through
Cory Schneider was sent down today to allow Luongo to get back in the lineup, but Cory on his trip up with the big team did something he’s failed to do in all his other appearances. He shone. The goaltending prospect stood on his head to do everything he could to ensure a win for the ...

Game 18 – Cory In the House
Last night was a typical example of the Canucks coming up short in front of their goaltender. However, the difference this time was it wasn’t infront of who you would have expected. In the Canucks 2-1 loss to the stars last night, Cory Schneider got his first start of the season and he ...

Things I love and things I hate

He’s carrying this team on his back to use a total sports cliche. Gosh, ... (more) Things I love and things I hate
Samuelsson: The Swedish Solution
There was expectation that Samuelsson upon inking a 3 year deal in the off season, was going to be the next Marc Chouinard, or Jan Bulis, the general feeling about him was that he was going to under perform. In fact he’s done the complete opposite. After finding his way onto the Canucks, ...
