I know plenty of us have got teams in the running still, so thought I'd make a thread to share pics/videos/anger/etc.

I`m still physically pained by the monkey`s court that was last night`s game. Ridiculous, awful playing.
This is the strongest the Canucks have been since the West Coast Express but they`re back to their old tricks, playing tight and smart all season and then choking when it counts. The dazed faces in the crowd at Rogers Arena yesterday expressed perfectly the general feel of the city today: how do you even react to such a display, where questionable refereeing was overshadowed by slipshod ice play, questionable lineup calls, and the inability to handle the puck?
Jesus, it`s just brutalizing. Get it together boys. :(
I hope they give Schneider a chance to start in the next game. Not that Luongo was the only problem - there was some terrible terrible defense, especially on (if I'm remembering right) Hossa's powerplay goal where he basically skated untouched past four men and just popped it in. Everyone just seemed to be playing at half speed.
Hossa - former Winterhawk :smug:
Officially I am rooting for the Sharks, hometown team. :dance
Thank you, Michael Ryder...now get your ass back to Boston so I can buy you a drink for this!
:eee
oh man, Dee, the Bruins were fuckin` BALLIN. What a game - edge of your seat kind of match.
Word is Luongo`s starting game 6 - which, argh, whatever, fine; I just hope there`s sense enough to pull him at the first sign of trouble because he`s off his game. It happens, but there`s no reason to keep playing him in that state when Schneider`s there.
Also ha, yeah, what was up with the defense? It didn`t exist! Haha I just started laughing in the third when two of the `Nuck`s players fell down while the bastard Blackhawks made an orchestrated rush for a 6th goal.
The Sedins put up a scramble at the last but even they were dazed. Half speed, just like you say.
Here`s hoping they shake the dust off and get over it for Sunday.
Also, where was the physical presence from the first 3 games? Not enough good hits.
Alright, consider my support for the Winterhawks withdrawn!!Quote:

Pretty accurate summary of last night:
^ Is it just me, or does it look like the Nucks have been infiltrated by Nicholas Cage? :|
Liz! I know! They had my damned heart in a vice the entire time!
I think you may have something there, Jace...frightening thought, that.
Oh! And congratulations are in order - the finalists for the Vezina Trophy have been announced:
Roberto Luongo, Vancouver Canucks
Pekka Rinne, Nashville Predators
Tim Thomas, Boston Bruins
(oh, Tim :love)
