The Vancouver Canucks: Great Moments in Time

I vehemently disagreed at the time. I still kinda do, but I also agree that Luongo is a lot of things, he's a fantastic goalie. But, yeah, wouldn't really use the word 'clutch' to describe him.

Cloutier is a whole other can of worms. I'll just say, you can be an excellent goalie, but too much of the stereotype. I don't blame 'em. McLean definitely had this Bower thing about him where someone could plant a poorly-timed car bomb that went off in front of them and they go "huh, better call into work".

There's nothing there I can disagree with.

Delightful. I want to go back to that internet, y'know, the ones where people actually did stuff on it and contributed their goofy f***ing ideas instead of f***ing pricks like me who just talk about doing it but prevent it by being so constantly miserable.

SAMI SOLO



I had no idea Sami had vision problems. You'd have never known the way he played. Positionally sound, the very definition of grace under pressure, strong as an ox and sturdy to boot. He could even PPQB as a f***ing cannon. He really gave the Sedins a boost on the PP so they could slow the game down because everyone respected Salo's shot. Teammates wouldn't even stand in front of it. Except for the two crazy enough to do it - Kesler and Burrows. No clue about his eyes until just now. Had me fooled.

E: Personal thoughts. Me mum loved her some Alex Burrows more than any one Canuck. Still does to this day. I know her to be of humble nature but she also has an excellent judge of character in a man, I must say. First game I took her to, instead of my dad, she kept asking who the fella on the Jumbo was. I kept tellin' er "Burrows! Jeez!"..."he's cute"...."gross, mum"....god bless her. There was only one Canuck she loved more than Burr. I always considered myself more a Kesler type. As Burke put it "most miserable man alive to come to the rink".

Him & Ohlund could share one good set of eyes.

My first Canucks Hawks game was a 4-2 loss to Chicago in game 5 2009.

Funniest thing I've ever seen in my life was a Blackhawks fan wearing Byfuglien's jersey laughing like a maniac in the concourse near section 307. Younger Rev was a little "Big Country", but realizes now it must have been a family member.

f***ing biggest trolljob I've ever seen and I honestly respected the set on that poor sucker. Looking back at it, that was Dustin Byfuglien's "breakout game". He was always seen as a good prospect (after draft), but that game propelled him to household name by proxy. Yeesh.
