Nucks win Game 3
Wow, Canucks just won last night giving them a 2-1 series lead. What a game! Canucks finally woke up from their stupor and played like they should in the last period. We were extremely lucky that the Stars did not take advantage of the bad 1st and 2nd periods. Everytime Hansen plays, I get more and more impressed. AV tried to shuffle his lines, trying to find one that clicked. When Vigneault put the Ikea line back together again, it looked dangerous along with the Morrison-Hansen-Bulis line.
Turco played amazing in the last two games. He looked on his way to posting another shutout. The way he handles the puck is just amazing. Luckily, that didn't happen and Luongo played great. There is still much improvement, however. There are still way too many turnovers, and we cannot seem to string a full game together. The ironic thing is, Linden had two giveaways that could've cost them the game but redeemed himself by being the first in the forecheck that led to Smolinski's pass to Pyatt for the goal.
Good news on the injury front: Green is coming back and Santala is probably the odd man out. We really need Green as we have Cooke and Kesler injured. With Hansen playing the way that he has, I do not think we lose much anymore.
As usual, it was a celebration downtown as everyone was honking their horns in support for the Canucks. GO CANUCKS GO!
