Canucks.com report on Game 7

What could've ended up as an ominous hockey game with Dallas getting the first goal, the Canucks dominated after that and put the game away. Zubov was a big loss for the Stars.

After the game, a couple of friends and I celebrated downtown and everybody was high fiving each other, shouting in support for the Canucks. The two friends I had with me had never done this thing before and I'm glad I got them hooked.

Some funny quotes from yesterdays celebrations looking ahead to the next series against the Anaheim Ducks:

F**k the ducks!

The duck is done!

Let's BBQ some ducks!

Nucks pluck those ducks!

It really brought back memories of the Rangers vs. Canucks final in 1994 when my brother, sister and I did the same thing and celebrated on Robson after the Game 6 win in the Stanley Cup Final. That's what got me hooked on hockey ever since. It was pretty much the same thing and you know what the great thing is? It's just the first round!

Well, I can't write much anymore as I have an exam coming up tomorrow

GO CANUCKS GO!!!!!

Mad World

What is this world coming to? It really is a mad world. Yes, I'm talking about the Virginia Tech massacre. According to reports, 33 dead.

This song by the Boomtown Rats is a chilling foreshadow of what happened today, Monday, April 16th .


I Don't Like Mondays
-BoomTown Rats-

The silicon chip inside her head
Gets switched to overload
And nobody’s gonna go to school today
She’s gonna make them stay at home
And daddy doesn’t understand it
He always said she was good as gold
And he can see no reasons
'Cos there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be show-ow-ow-ow-own?

Tell me why
I don’t like Mondays
Tell me why
I don’t like Mondays
Tell me why
I don’t like Mondays
I wanna shoo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oot the whole day down

The Telex machine is kept so clean
And it types to a waiting world
And mother feels so shocked
Father’s world is rocked
And their thoughts turn to their own little girl
Sweet 16 ain’t that peachy keen
Now that ain’t so neat to admit defeat
They can see no reasons
'Cos there are no reasons
What reasons do you need?
Oh Oh Oh Oh

Tell me why
I don’t like Mondays
Tell me why
I don’t like Mondays
Tell me why
I don’t like Mondays
I wanna shoo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oot
The whole day down, down, down, shoot it all down

And all the playing's stopped in the playground now
She wants to play with her toys a while
And school's out early and soon we'll be learning
And the lesson today is how to die
And then the bullhorn crackles
And the captain tackles
With the problems and the hows and whys
And he can see no reasons
'Cos there are no reasons
What reason do you need to die, die?
Oh Oh Oh

Tell me why
I don’t like Mondays
Tell me why
I don’t like Mondays
Tell me why
I don’t like
I don’t like (Tell me why)
I don’t like Mondays
Tell me why
I don’t like
I don’t like (Tell me why)
I don’t like Mondays
Tell me why
I don't like Mondays
I wanna shoo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oot the whole day down


My prayers go out to all the families and the people killed
