Not really interested in watching the game, probably will, but the level of dissapointment fir me is very high this season.

I have my fingers crossed Naslund is not coming back, and Nonis gets off his fat ass and makes some changes, even it that means trading away a prospect for a top 6 player or two.

All I can say is that he’s recently been called a punk, and now he’s starting to dress like one.

Thanks for the good chuckle, Alanah.  Can’t wait to see #16 hanging in the rafters at GM Place.

Ah ok, Elisha is way outta Phaneuf’s league.

Never mind the looks, have you ever heard the guy use any word with more than one syllable in it?

However, we aren’t exactly in a good position to trash talk Calgary...... Damn flamers.

Perfect look for Dion

Puckhound61 --Well, I understand your disappointment. I just try and see the bright side where I can.  (This is the Canucks we’re talking about, after all; disappointment isn’t a stranger to our history with this freakin’ team...).

Anyway, enjoy the playoffs.

dash_pinched -- Glad you got a laugh. And yes, Linden’s number ceremony will be a very big deal indeed.

Laker -- I figure I’m perfectly within my rights to trash talk Calgary.  After all, they’re the ones in the playoffs and we aren’t… so I think I’m entitled to a little bit of light-hearted bitterness!

Of course, it goes without saying that Flames fans get the ‘last laugh’ anyway. Sigh.

ocenbrez -- Perhaps next time I’ll find him some nice, strappy, sexy high heels… that should really add something to the look, right?

How can I enjoy them when we have been eliminated?

The freakin team drives people mad.

I agree, Nonis must get fired becuase he did not get off his fat ass.  NAsland must go; Anson Carter should be placed in with the Sedins. Luongo must go. Letting in every other shot is not good goaltending.  Send him to Florida, sign Martin St Louis. Get rid of Willie Mitchell, he too is over rated 2 goal blunder.

Since when is St. Louis a goaltender - or available?

See how Luongo plays when he has a legitimate NHL defense in front of him, not a bunch of injury fill-ins, and when the team can score enough that he doesn’t have to shut the opponent out every single game and knows that as soon as he lets up two goals he might as well write a loss for Vancouver down in permanent ink.

He’s had a rough year personally, and next year he should be fine after some time with his new family.

Nice catch on the photo Alanah. While you continue to hate my Avs, I think Canucks fans and Avs fans can all agree that Phaneuf is a jackass.

Russ, do you really Luongo was the problem, and not the two and a half Swedes and assorted parts you’ve got for forwards, or the fact that that your defense turned into a six-headed version of Jordan Leopold?

Andrew;

we all love to hate the sedins.

However, show me two other players who combined for 140 points this year for 7 million. I’d bet the examples are few.

Naslund on the other hand.......
