3H Line Shows Hustle for Canucks in Loss to Oil

October 25, 2011 | No Comments

Just as advertised, the Canucks unveiled their speedy new line against the Oilers on Tuesday in Edmonton. But it wasn’t the vaunted new second line of Kesler, Higgins and Booth that was the ‘Nucks best line tonight – it was the so-called third line Hodgson, Hansen and ‘Hotra. The 3H line – Triple Hustle, maybe? [...]

Just what the doctor ordered for the Canucks… GOALS!

October 21, 2011 | No Comments

Going into Thursday night’s game against the Nashville Predators, the prognosis did not look good for Roberto Luongo and his ailing Vancouver Canucks. Mired in an ugly funk, they’d be facing a tough defensive team that managed to grind out six games against them in the second round of the playoffs last season, led by [...]

Hockey Canada wants to raise the NHL entry draft age by a year

October 20, 2011 | No Comments

President Bob Nicholson has been trying to raise the age which players can enter the NHL from 18 to 19. This would mean that players who are 18 would have to wait another year to be selected by the NHL, with those who are a year older than them being given the opportunities. However, an [...]

Roberto Luongo of the Vancouver Canucks

With fans like this, who needs enemies?

October 20, 2011 | No Comments

The boo birds came out in force on Tuesday night, raining down their scorn upon an all-too-familiar target, Canucks goaltender Roberto Luongo. While Luongo didn’t play anywhere near as well as his counterpart at the other end of the ice, Henrik Lundqvist of the New York Rangers, you couldn’t fault him for three of the [...]

A dream come true

October 05, 2011 | No Comments

Just for a second put yourself in the skates of Aaron Volpatti. Coming into this camp he was up against ridiculous odds. The Canucks had gone all out to try and fill the massive crater that was the 4th line by loading up on fringe players. Byron Bitz, Mark Mancari, Steve Pinizzoto, Andrew Ebbett, Mike [...]

Big Changes, Big Difference!

The last time I wrote about the Lions, regrettably, was not since their home opened on July.8. It’s been a while, but I can still remember the excitement in the air as the CFL season kicked off in the city of Vancouver. If you recall the Lions lost that game by 2 points…after a combination [...]

And so it begins

September 21, 2011 | No Comments

        Most of us are now happy about the fact that the Canucks gave us a great year last year and for those of you that are still healing, it will pass. For the second year in a row, the Canucks started the pre-season with a split squad game verse their northwest [...]

Vancouver Canucks v Toronto Maple Leafs

Time to wake up

September 07, 2011 | No Comments

Before I begin, I’d like to say that I realize this is a site mostly devoted to the West coast and the sports teams which perform here. I think everyone does a great job of covering the teams and that this site has something very special to offer. With that in mind, I would like [...]

Vancouver Canucks v Dallas Stars

Do or die for Cody

September 05, 2011 | No Comments

It is very rare when an injury to a star player is considered a good thing, but that is exactly what the surgery to Ryan Kesler could be. Though said to be ready for the start of the season, many feel this is wishful thinking with the extent of the injury and the healing window [...]
