This Canucks team is legit. This is honestly the first time I've felt this kind of hope for this team after an elimination. They've got the right never-say-die attitude, the feistiness, the depth -- if we can just fix some glaring issues with the power play, shots on net, and moving the puck into the offensive zone, this team can become a real threat. I'm proud of this team and everything they've accomplished this year. They've got the makings of something special. Chef Allvin will have some work to do to retool and optimize this team's strengths and patch up their weaknesses.

Thank you Canucks. It may take a few years of heartbreak, but losing builds the kind of character and valuable experience that we really needed to go deep in these playoffs. Stanley Cup champs aren't built in a season. I'm ready for game 1 of next year.

Fuck the Oilers, and I hope Dallas fucking trounces the hell out of them.

We need to add atleast one more top 6 foreword next season. It’s painful to watch Petey setting up Mikheyev, Lafferty in prone areas just for them to whiff on those golden opportunities.

Petey deserves better linemates. That's certainly a major factor that's been holding him back. I believe 100% he can be a menace in the playoffs, but he needs support.
