Canucks keep on sucking. Good. Maybe they'll actually fire our dumbass coach soon.

[CanadaPure]

Andrew "Spaceship Superstar" Ebbett is our second line center, that pretty much sums up how awesome we are.

[CanadaPure]

I hope the Canucks lose tonight. The more times we lose, the more likely for a change.

Dale Weise scored a bonerific goal tonight. We won 3-2.

[CanadaPure]

This is the Canucks forward line-up tonight:

D. Sedin - H. Sedin - A. Burrows
M. Raymond - J. Schroeder - J. Hansen
K. Ballard - A. Ebbett - D. Weise
T. Sestito - M. Lapierre - A. Gordon

Ballard is a defense-man playing forward, Gordon is a career AHLer. Schroeder is a rookie in his first NHL season who shouldn't be in the top 6 yet. Sestito is playing injured.

Injuries: Zack Kassian, David Booth, Ryan Kesler, Manny Malholtra, Steve Pinnizotto (sick).

[CanadaPure]

That's pretty rough hopefully the twins can pull off some magic tonight.

Tanev scored, so that's good. I have a man-crush on Chris Tanev He was some random college player we signed, undrafted, and he's just been so awesome.

[CanadaPure]

Sometimes teams can get very lucky with these college players.

Did you see that defense-man Tampa Bay got? Sustr? He's 6'8".

The Canucks signed a college guy last week too, 6'6" center named Kellen Lain.

[CanadaPure]

And somehow the Canucks win 2-1.

Tanev and Schroeder got the goals.

[CanadaPure]

Just seen that on NHL.com

But to be fair you were facing the Yotes

Also Daniel slid into Smith and hurt him a bit, so that probably helped. We played well for a team consisting of the Sedins, Raymond, Hansen, and then 90% of the AHL roster.

[CanadaPure]

Could be worse.

You could be bigray.

[CanadaPure]

Do you think when Cavemen were trying to trade flint fire-started to other cavemen they were like "It's so easy, bigray could do it?"

[CanadaPure]

Bigray's a legend doe, everyone knew about him. Even before he was alive.

[CanadaPure]

Unfortunately the current species of bigray cheers for a wack NHL team.

I like Colin Greening, but only because I've met him

[CanadaPure]

Colin Greening was one of the nicest people I've ever met. I've had the pleasure of meeting him 2-3 times. He's definitely a hard working player, but he's more of a grinder than anything else.
