1-1 end of second

 

[robbiea]

Killing it ,
This Cali trip will test em !!

 

[globaleagle]

yup, the avs were leading 2-0 and with 10 seconds to go in the second, nucks score...


followed by 4 more unanswered goals and a 5-2 win!

but er yup...sharks, kings and anaheim are a different kettle of hurt!

After what the Ducks did to us when I went to a game, I just want a little revenge.

This year I will be in Vegas in Early January so I am going to see if I can get anywhere near another game

 

[globaleagle]

Amazingly I didn't realise the nucks played last night! And we won!

3-2 against the sharks (nice)

sharks shots on goal....38

Canucks.....19


Looks like we went for quality over quantity.


holy poop on a stick. just watched the highlights and san jose scored right on full time to make it 3-3.... but the refs went to the video and the puck crossed the line about 1/10th of a second after time was up!

woot, and no goal!

Arizona Coyotes are closest team to Vegas.
Been to a couple of games in Phoenix (The Coyotes) , one of the best bang for your buck venues.
Scored glass seats behind the Nucks bench ,was awesome..
Looks like they are playing 6 home games in the first couple of weeks of Jan too..That time of year and the crowds will be mostly Canadians escaping the Cold.
Also just noticed Canucks in LA for new year game..

 

[robbiea]

2 From 4 on this trip so far ..Will be happy with 3 from 4 .
F*** It , Lets go 4 From 4 ...
Can happily eat my words regarding Miller ,is proving to be a force in goal..
Hoping Horvat can see a bit more time these next two games & score his 1st NHL goal.. Odds are 10/1 so going to throw ten on him for the next two games..

The green men retire!!!!

boooo

2 from 4 pretty good (though ryan's avs suck butt this year)

big test against the cup champs tonight!

I don't mind miller (better half was a bit more like you) but damn he did some good saves against the sharks.

Horvat...so close the other day. Isn't it nice how some telecasters can show the family in the crowd without making it a sickening as Mrs Burgess. (which is more ch 9 than Mrs B's fault.)

 

[robbiea]

I thinks Avs will turn it around soon , Def missing Statsny..

I do like Miller ,
But since he won the Vezina ,he had been very average.
He did have the Sabres in front of him (so expected), but playoffs with
Blues ,was awful & that was a quality team in front of him..

I read somewhere the Kings only have 5 D for tonights game , I like them odds.

 

[globaleagle]

kings are so near the cap it isnt funny. then they got a defenseman injured....and one was suspended for domestic violence ...but the kings still get the cap hit.

so, you hear correctly!

and fingers crossed.

4-2 philly over the avs at the moment, wolfpack shall be happy...or nervous

 

[robbiea]

You would think they would be looking to make a trade to free up a bit of cash.Apparently this is the 2nd time going into a game with 5 D..

 

[globaleagle]

well.....la 3 nucks 0

still first period.

fun whilst it lasted!

---

4-0.....sheesh

 

[robbiea]

They probably could of won with 4 defence men..Hopefully tonights better & we can rub Keslers face in it..
Not very confident though !!

 

[globaleagle]

^ that'd be nice (re: Kessler)

5-1....as Higgins said, Miller saved us re the sharks and the kings showed us up 'tonight.'

I didn't see the game....so my limited knowledge is even more...er limited on this game (like my vocab)

 

[robbiea]

Fear not ,you didn't miss a thing ...Very ordinary 2 1/2 hrs.

 

[globaleagle]

streaming ducks v nucks now. 1-0 ducks...boo


erm spoiler alert! (sorry)

edit 1-1

---

lack is in goal tonight!

no dorsett, sbisa, vrbata.....

 

[globaleagle]

canucks win it in a shootout!

lack saved all three shots...and when I say saved, I mean the ducks hit the pipes twice.

Including kesler....who they sent out for the last shot!

shall take it!

 

[robbiea]

That was a great game ....

 

[Dan]

My travel schedule this week is horrendous so I haven't even entertained the idea of watching a game. The thought of watching Kessler choke really makes me want to download and watch it on my 3 he train ride to groningen tomorrow thoufh

Agreed!

I watched about half of it via *fishing* and robbiea may know more but I didn't see kesler choke so much (he won a lot of faceoffs) and his shootout shot hit the upright, sailed across the face of goal and missed.

But....that was worth seeing as well.

(maybe just watch the highlights?)

Have fun travelling.

I was driving in a blizzard today on summer tyres, I don't mind admitting I was bloody scared....more so than the time I got caught in a storm whilst flying solo in a cessna 152.
