Canucks in the playoffs. History in the playoffs. Who should get traded? Todd Bertuzzis sucker punch. Oppions?

I think the Canucks need to move Morrison.  He has been the 3rd of the three on that line for quite some time.  Bertuzzi can continue to make a large contribution if he and Naslund have a quality centerman.  Even a new right winger would help as Bertuzzi has done well playing center.  I think the canucks just needed to have a full defensive staff and Cloutier back to be back in form.  Jovo added quite a bit of added power and skill when he returned.  He was out most of the season, Salo has been out since the Olympics and Ohlund missed several games after the Olympics.  Auld did an amazing job, but he was a backup goaltender and if Cloutier was there and healthy, they would've had a great 1-2 punch in goal.  There will be changes in the off season with the free agency, but the Canucks can't afford to keep them all with the salary cap.  Even though I think it will be a mistake, I think that the Canucks will have to trade Todd because they will need his high salary to pay players like Jovo in the lineup.

Yes, I am totally depressed! Bittersweet night last night. I am a true life-time Leaf fan living in Ottawa, it was nice to finally beat that heartless Senator team, but when Tampa scored late in overtime, I was devastated!

I'm very upset to see thhe great season down the drain. but hopefully this will teach them a lesson for next year. I'm not gonna make excuses here, just facts. Lets see, Edmonton, first off, did one hell of a job. Pronger played like he needed to and Roloson showed up hungry. The Wings went in overconfident I think and Edmonton stunned them for the first 2 and 1/2 games with their great teamwork, goaltending, and lets not forget that tricky neutral ice trap style defense that worked out great. Detroit was not slow at all. In every game since game 2, Detroit controlled the tempo, had way more ice time in the offensive zone, and nearly doubled Edmonton in Shots on goal. The wings did great, they got great scoring chances but just weren't finishing on them. Stevie Y and Lang were in the trenches of every play of their shift. Zetty scored at least one goal every game. Maltby did one hell of a job blocking the passing lanes and forceing turnovers on the power play. Shanny had many of opportunities. It's not that we didn't play well. We had the chances, but just could not convert them into points. Now don't get me wrong on this next part, I like Manny Legace a lot, but every game, he allowed over his goals per game average and in nearly every game he allowed 2 goals within the first 10 shots and one game where he allowed 2 goals within the first 7 shots. Ya can't do that in the playoffs. They couldn't pull him and let ozzy play, cause ozzy was injured. I think Manny is an excellent goaltender, but he just had a really bad playoff run. Possibly due to inexperience. I just hope they don't fire manny for it. He got us the Presidents Trophy and he's been one hell of a backup for the past few seasons. lets not forget when we had Hasek and Kujo, Legace was third string and both Kujo and Hasek were injured and Manny played nearly as many games as Dom and Kujo combined, and we won the presidents trophy that year too. I say keep Manny, he just needs more experience as a starter. Hats off to Edmonton for a series well played. they won fair and square. All except for the third goal that was reviewed in game 6. It was def hit down with a high stick that the refs didn't call and then a very controversial kicking motion. but oh well. Maybe next year for the Wings. (((( KEEP MANNY LEGACE ))))

come on marc cuban would be the best possible thing for not only the penguins but the NHL.  look at what he did with the mavs. does any one remember what a joke they were when he bought them.  Not to mention lets get a little pub for the NHL... Immagine what he would do to that prick betman I am salivating just thinking about it.

Moore from Colorado got suckerpunched to the back of the head from Bertuzzi on Vancouver Cunucks. This was in the 2003/2004 season

you are all wrong.  the devils and avalanche are going to be playing against each other in the stanley cup.  joe sakic is going to destroy the devils single-handedly.  it's the truth.

I'm very pleased my Sabres shut out the hated flyers 3-0 at home, but I'm not entirely certain they'll thrash them again in loathsome philistinia. I'm hoping we can wrap this up in six games but it may require a return trip to Buffalo where I am dead certain we would annihilate them in game seven. I'll keep you posted about who they would play in the next round as soon as they advance (hopefully Tuesday).\n\nGO SABRES!!!

Bad refs!! (Just kidding)\n\nUmmmm - We don't know. Personally - I looked at every single aspect (including ownership Bill) \nPhila has made a lot of changes in every different catagory.\nEsche has to go and he wants to go. / Nittymaki is a backup goalie who'se only playing because Esche's heart is not in Phila.\n\n*I'm only now beginning to agree that Hatcher has to go. / An enforcer was called up from the minors today and that's a damn-good indication that they're looking to get rid of their old enforcer - Hatcher.*\n\n**Peter did not skate tonight - he has the flu. The flu?\nOK - With-that Phila played their best game in a long long time... so this might be an indication of some captain-conflicts within the team.... / I have said since the season began that Gagne should be captain but Gagne held-out for more $\n*Peter is also having reoccuring ankle problems and the Flyer's new GM stated today that he's not untradable. / At the end of the season he's free-picking for any team.\n\nIn short - I don't know..\nBut I can say that I love these kids and I'm proud of them.

I am absolutely ecstatic (if a bit hungover this morning), Moon! :) On one glorious sporting day, Liverpool won their 7th FA Cup and my Buffalo Sabres defeated the Ottawa Senators to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals. You cannot top that! Well, aside from when my Sabres beat Carolina (presumably their next opponent) and then defeat the Western Conference champions (likely Anaheim) to win the coveted Stanley Cup! :)\n\nLast night's Sabres-Sens game was a hard-fought affair, each team trading goals until it went into overtime, tied at 2-2. Typical of the Sabres' grit and determination -- to say nothing of their youth, skill and blinding speed -- young Jason Pominville went in on a shorthanded breakaway just 2 and 1/2 minutes into OT and scored a highlight reel goal that set off a celebration in Buffalo which I could feel here, nearly 400 miles south!\n\nAre we celebrating? Erm, did I not mention that I was hungover this morning? ;) Sabres fans all around the country (and the world) are celebrating this upset victory and feeling very excited about our prospects of winning it all. Bring on the Hurricanes (or the Devils) and let's keep this train rolling right along! WOO HOO!!! Thank you, Sabres!!!\n\nLet's Go Buf-fa-lo!!!

im not sold on luongo being the goalie we need... he is untested in the playoffs, and we need a great playoff goalie... statistically he is okay, but reallywho knows how he will do after playing 70+ games.... that and i think we gave up too much for what we got... we could have kept auld, and not taken the 6th rounder and still had a deal... but no\n\nGo Canucks Go

well, the top 2 seeds are gone. i am glad to see dallas gone and disappointed in detroit losing.  i say the avs will slaughter the sharks in six games .as far as the oilers and flames who cares?  i see the flames and avs in a dogfight in the west. i say the winner will play new jersey for the cup.

Peterborough Petes all the way! Jordan Staal plays for them and is going to be drafted in the NHL this year. I heard that he might be better than Eric and if thats true, (and I've gone to see Eric play many times) he'll lead the Petes all the way to victory. GO PETES GO!

ALRIGHT DUCKS!!! We took game 6... bring on Game 7.  As long as Bryzgalov is in goal, we should have a decent game.\n\nDucks will not go down without a fight, and yes, we have won a playoff game in the Sad-dledome, and we'll win our other game tomorrow!\n\nGO DUCKS GO!! AND Go Edmonton!
