  • Flames win, Avs lose...

    Now just 2 points separating.

    By the way, Curtis Macklebackup has won 4 in a row. No ****.

    • His stats with Anaheim:

      4GP, 4W, 0.933 sv%, 1.97 GAA.

      I never thought he got a fare shake in Calgary.

      • I think it's Calgary.

        Obviously the problem wasn't Macklebackup. Imagine how Kipper would do on Anaheim with decent scoring support.

          Yup-- that one pretty much goes without saying when I am stating that a 6-0 run may not be good enough


          Tonight was big-- To get Anaheim to take down the Avs was huge and squeaking it out over Phoenix was even bigger

          But now they have to win over the Avs and even if they do, the Avs are still probably a 2-1 favorite

            I agree-- Just once I would have liked to have seen them give him consecutive starts.

            Instead he would play great in relief or in a rare start and then get in 3 weeks later and be mediocre to bad

            • Another player poll, this time by Sports Illustrated. I read this through the Toronto Star (http://www.thestar.com/sports/hockey...f-as-overrated), couldn't find it on a quick glance through si.com.

              Most overrated player:
              Dion Phaneuf - 21%
              Wade Redden - 7%
              Scott Gomez - 6%
              Sean Avery - 5%
              Shawn Horcoff - 5%

              • Jesus ****ing christ, Luongo is killing me. 56% sv% and 3GA in the first period alone vs LA.

                • ****ing hell, his sv% got even WORSE.

                  Luongo is clearly the most overrated NHL player.

                  • 7uongo is totally in form for the playoffs.

                    • 8 now. ****ing 8 goals against.

                      Jesus ****ing christ.

                      I started today up 5-1 with a comfortable lead on Kontiki and thanks to Luongo's effort I'm now down 3-4.

                      • Can't really blame Luongo. Canucks just snakebitten today.

                        Have you even seen any of the goals?

                        Everything LA touches goes in the net.

                        • It's pretty ****ing easy with his ridiculous rebound control.

                          Canucks fans are ****ing awful. 8 goals against...not at all Luongo's fault.

                          Little known fact: Luongo has never let in a goal that was his fault since he became a Canuck.

                          The shots were pretty even, too. In fact, Vancouver managed 1 more shot on goal than LA did. The difference was LA had a quality goaltender in net with a respectable sv%, and Vancouver had playoff-form Luongo.

                          • Well lets see.

                            Goal number 1

                            Puck goes to wide open player on the far side. Goal

                            Goal number 2

                            Defenseman pinches up, puck gets bounced out to the far side. Goal.

                            Goal number 3

                            PKers let Doughty walk up to the Face off circle who hammers it top shelf.

                            Goal number 4

                            Again, defense breaks down and LA walks in on Luongo. Hammers a shot which Luongo stops and then LA player reaches behind Luongo to put it in.

                            Goal number 5.

                            Puck goes to open man on the far side completely unguarded who fans on the puck, and it trickles through Luongo's legs.

                            Sure you can blame Luongo, but the defense has been complete piss.

                            This is the same Luongo who only let one goal in last game.

                              Same with Kippersoft.

                              Never heard you ever blame him for some **** outings.

                              Nice of Luongo to put in a good game now that I'm in the semi-finals.
                              Does your ass hurt jumping on and off the Canucks bandwagon?

                                I have, quite a few times. Goaltenders had off nights, Kipper is no exception and I've complained about it when it's happened. Luongo is having more off nights than on this season, which is worrisome. If he ever let in 8 goals in a game (which I'm pretty sure he never has), I certainly wouldn't defend him for it and absolving him from blame like you are. Jesus Christ.

                                Your post above detailing the goals clearly illustrates you do not inhabit the same universe as I am.

                                Does your ass hurt jumping on and off the Canucks bandwagon?
                                I've never, ever, been on a Canucks bandwagon. What ****ing world are you in?
