The first 3 games the Canucks were all over crap after the whistle--- and no calls- but you choose not to see that. The Hawks may have gotten the benfot of a few calls, but it's not like the poor Canucks did nothing to warrant calls..please. as far as the seabrook hit which you said Seabrook said was a clean hit- you need to get the story right- Seabrook said it was not an elbow- but that he hit the head first with his should- that is a blow to the head and a penalty. As for the coach sayting it should not have been a penalty- let me ask you this- did Seabrook have the puck ? answer is no- so is that not charging/boarding or at least interference. Any bad calls the Canucks got they brought upon themselves due to that hit--the guy is a no talent goon-- I wish Probert was still on this team-- that would have ended. AS for the 'national announcers'- they blow like the wind unless you're an east coast team and you know that - or should. They also were looking for a suspension for Torres...so they can't be right sometimes and not other times. I've already said the Canucks are the better team- will the better team win ? maybe but all the whining from the Canucks fans the last few years about refs, and injuries etc-- everyone goes thru that..the persecution complex of Canucks fans wins no fans anywhere else. If you are truly the best team, you will easily overcome anything there were at least 5 instances in poeriod 3 where more stuff could have been called for cheap shots and weren't-- it's hockey so I move on... the Canucks came unglued..we'll see if they can get it back together or not. First goal -- and seemingly first penalty call may deermine a lot. If you think you're not getting the calls now- then be prepared if you play Detroit --

Second Goal .lousy line change..was allowed to skate freely no pressure, third the same..easy goals for the hawks. 4th goal the same...they passed the puck away...reallly the goals were easy goals no real effort was needed... Had the officials made the obvious calls, on keith...and had the canucks scored , game was over until the hawks got a break from some where....did not happen...our team played like marshmellows , very soft , sedins were non factors offensively -3 on the night...very rare, very poor showing...they should be ashamed of them selves....their Coach should be as well, he is too soft...he said the hawks out worked us...no that is not true...the truth is, his team did not show up for work yesterday, they all took the day off...it was easy pickings , the prey was already cooked and was sitting at the dinner table....hopefully the canucks will find a little pride and end this...if not then Sunday just might be the RETURN OF THE lAST sUPPER... vbdad...how many times have players on teams, knock the puck back to the blue line in their zone only to see the puck taken out of the back of their net...all series long our team have done that, last nite salo, glass paid for it with the ultimate a goal against...when will they learn to take into the corner or around the net..better that than just giving it away...campbell for the hawks another guilty party...

One thing for sure in tonites game is a must no- no-..The Hawks have had a keen eye on this all series...when under any pressure inside their own blue line...Vancouver instead of taking the puck around the boards have elected to blindly knock it back up the boards ...it cost them last game...the break of the game last time was when the second goal was allowed..it happened so fast no one really noticed it...as the puck was been played in the hawk player on the left side was offside...his foot was lifted off the ice..off the blue line. When you look at the goal..yeah..it was..but really..I think that the Canucks were in trouble no matter what..their game plan was deemed to fail if the hawks got momentum and they did...hope it is a good game tonite...Weather is kinda nice right now, so the players will feel a lil more upbeat, than if it was raining today ,like it was for some of yesterday...had hail and snow the day before..it is almost May.. Yes..I like cake too..ha ha ha I like the Bulls...
