Reelishymn 0 Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 I didn't expect the Nucks to win Game 2 because of the injuries and fatigue from the 4OTs. Hansen looked good though, I could see him getting lots of ice time tonight and the team as whole bouncing back.LET'S GO!! Link to post Share on other sites

grocery_mony 8 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Yes! I was very discouraged with the first 2 periods tonight. The last game and tonight they couldnt get anything going in the Dallas end. It was like a light switch went on between periods and they looked like the more dangerous team. I am just happy I will get my full 7 hours of sleep tonight Link to post Share on other sites
WestcoastCanuck 0 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 The Canucks finally got it going and carried the play from the end of the middle 2nd on. It is great to see Naslund going. He looks about 100x better with the Sedins now than at the beginning of the season.If I had to list the top 3 guys in the series so far (not including goalies) they would be:1) Zubov2) Naslund3) Barnes Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe I haven't been watching him enough this year but he made a lot of great little plays in the defensive end to break up the Stars attack numerous times.These two solid teams are so close that the minute one side has a little momentum it can make the other team look really bad. Hopefully the Nucks will find a way to maintain that 3rd period edge in the next game.2 wins down, 14 to go!

fleung22 1 Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 STANLEY CUP PLAYOFFS - Round 1Vancouver Leads 2-1GAME DAY - 04/17/07Canucks at Stars @ 8:00 PM ESTLine: VCR @ +150-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I don't know if I missed a major injury or some other piece of intel but the money line on the Nucks just dropped massively.If the Nucks can play a high energy game early I like their chances. Looks like a good bet despite the slight edge to the Stars playing at home.EDIT: I'm starting to worry about Luongo's hand. That may be the reason for the big change in the money line.

grocery_mony 8 Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 What is going on with this team. There seems to be no urgency in there game. Luongo cant do it all himself. If they expect to go on any kind of a run they need to win this series in 5 and get some downtime for Luongo. Kudos to Turco he would be the story in this series if it werent for Luongo.

Kudos to Turco he would be the story in this series if it werent for Luongo.Both goalies are playing spectacular. Smolinski missed on a great opportunity. He would've banged in the rebound but the Stars did a good job knocking the crap outta him knowing the penalty was well worth it.I hope the Nucks 3rd period dominance holds.GO CANUCKS GO!!
