its going to be sweet playing against bertuzzi and the flames twice a week for the entire season...
i hate the flames...always have.....the jerseys...the city....the stupid hard hats......i think iginla is great...phanuf....but it doesn't matter.... i can't stand the flames....they are the games that i always dread because i hate losing to them.....even when they were in the cup final.... i cheered for tampa.....
w. the canucks....i just see that everyone got better....maybe w. the shake up in the locker room guys will work harder, play the systems better and we'll go back to beating everyone 2-1.....but after watching detroit in the final last year...you see how fast their d was at moving the puck...and how the forwards could just hold onto it forever.....we look like an AHL team....
thats the "slogan" that sportsnet is trying to run with, a gritty "tough" hard working team. I geuss with the addition of Hordichuck we did get tougher, rather than Cowan getting slugged around, the problem is, and always will be, the canucks cant score. After breaking up the west express line, the sedins had to become the first line which in a division as competititve as ours just cant fly, the addition of Demitra wont help our case much, im just waiting for him to get injured, however, all cynicism aside, I have really high hopes for Bernier, Raymond and Kesler, last season towards the end we started to see what Raymonds capable of, put him on the PP, bring up his confidence and he could be a great player.
bah, thats my canucks rant, i love them but i think they are more frustrating than any sports team i follow, actually jays let me down a lot too
