Oh, and Radcliffe, with all the adjustments in the NHL, the Lightning are considering moving affiliates to Syracuse in the AHL. Vancouver is on the lookout since the ole Moose are now going to be the A affiliate to Winnipeg. Unless the most likely scenario of Norfolk being the FL affiliate comes true, the 'nucks could be affiliated with my hometown.

I'm hoping for Canucks to win this in 5 so we can win it at home, but I'm predicting we win it in 6. Bittersweet to win it in Boston, but at least we'll get to see all those crying bruins fans.

Sorry Boston, but it's not this year for you.

regardless of who wins the cup, this is one of the more entertaining and fun matchups in years, imo

That game last night was pretty fantastic. A few dull moments, but what hockey game doesn't have a couple of those.

Burrows with that beautiful wrap around 11 seconds into the 1st overtime period, paired with Danial's sweet goal to tie it up in the 3rd, made for a pretty fantastic finish.

Looking at the future of the Canucks just makes me smile. With Kesler, Daniel and Henrik, Burrows, Malhotra, and Luongo all sticking around for at least a few more years, some of them much longer, we might be looking at the next great dynasty with this team, ah-la the Oilers of the mid to late 80's or the Red Wings of the late 90's.

It's a good time to be a Canucks fan. :banana:

Ugh. I'm so sick of Versus lovefest with the Bruins. I'm hoping that the Canucks win the whole thing in Boston now. Game 5 will be huge.

But seriously, who doesn't?

Boston is outscoring themselves 8.5 to 1 at home vs away. Not a good stat going into game 7. Haha

I'm surprised I'm saying this, but this has been much more exciting than the nba finals.

I'd rather watch this year's Edmonton Oilers and Toronto Maple Leafs play a preseason exhibition game than ever watch an NBA finals game.

Congratulations to the Boston Bruins!

Vancouver already setting shit on fire. A well-deserved loss for the worst fans in the league (certain posters here not included).

That said, which would you prefer?

Yeah, the East is a little kids' league. If it's Boston it's done in 5 games, because Van will lose at least ONE game by beating themselves and giving it away gift-wrapped. Tampa Bay is a bit more of a challenge, mainly because they're playing with house money - but it'll still end in 6.

Dang

radcliffe didn't show up in this thread for the finals, much like the canucks.

oh boy, here it comes. The futile egging...

agreed. as a canadian, who bleeds blue, i was pulling for boston, simply out of spite, as my bosses are from vancouver. one of them flew to boston for games 3 and 4, spent $1100 on tickets alone, just to see them get routed like 12-1 over two games.

Yeah, when I wrote that I didn't realize the league was going to change the rulebook to benefit the Bruins.
