This is the year the Stanley Cup will be won by vancouver! Period.

With Roberto in net.... I think not

All that needs to be said for that comment is he has a Olympic gold in his career for team canada... boom.

Ohhhh I'm sorry, I was under the impression that they have tried to trade him over 10 times in his career for a reason.

Also you have the two snotty brats who are so dependent on each other that they demanded to be drafted by the same team or they were going to hold out.... And should I even start about Hammy or how about the coaching?

Besides.... they are arguably the best canadian team (along with Toronto), but that isn't saying much. Can you even remember the last Canadian team to win the cup? It was Montreal in 1993, so yeah, that makes complete sense.

Toronto stinks they just lost 4-O against non other then the canucks, literally it was last night. Ammmmazing game if you saw it you'ld know how intense it was. Besides your kind just standing they not doing much unless you have a team to stand behind, what's your team? Or are you just look for an argument for arguments sack?

Born and raised in Pittsburgh, take a guess who my team is, besides them I always had fondness for the Stars and my number three team is actually Vancouver.... I have a Luongo jersey with the old colors.

I wasn't saying Vacouver was all bad, Luongo is past his prime (come on, he is 34), but he is still capable of playing an elite game, but he can't get too many starts or he wears down. Henrick and Daniel are elite players, their career numbers show it, but they are incredibly dependent on one another and were pretty rude and selfish in regards to the draft (but I understand that, I always perform better when I play with my brother.) I really like Kessler, he might be paid a little more than he is worth, but he fits the team so he is worth it for them. I'm not too familar with their prospect pool, them being out west and all, but they are a solid team, with good peices, but I still think it will be a year or two before they go on a good run. Who knows, I could be wrong, and they could win this year (any given day, right?)

It wasn't that I was trying to argue with you Tom, I just love myself some hockey and it is always good to have an intellegent debate with someone about it.

Excellent now we can have a intelligent debate lol, I'm my opinion kessler should be captain, the sedins on the other hand it's interesting tortorella seems to have a great idea. He has been splitting them up to different lines and for pp and pk (kessler of course is doing the exact same, that's why to me he beats them one on one but together the sedins are better) as for the penguins I'll have to look at their stats before I can say much other then crosby.... he is a great player there is no denying that. one of if not thee best.... that being said last year he seemed to have a big mouth always talking to much.... maybe this year will be different we'll see

Go Canucks!

Lol, come on PK. Don't be like those people that blame everything on one guy.
The guy is fantastic and he has proven it. Sure he's had bad seasons and isn't all to consistent sometimes but his records prove it all.
2010 he had to come on for legend Brodeur and help Canada win Gold.

OK maybe Nucks won't get the cup yet again, hope I'm wrong, but who knows? And even if they don't it definitely wont be Lou's fault.
And yes, I agree he's past his prime. Most of the canucks top players are also getting close but hey they're still having a good season start.

Et tu Uza? jp. This new conference alignment is rediculous, since you guys are out west what do you think about it?

hehe yeup.
Don't follow hockey as much as footie but living here, if you don't follow hockey you might as well move, lol.

Its not the new alignment that I don't like, its the way they have the playoffs set up.
The west isn't too bad. The twist is actually kinda nice; tougher teams to play against for playoff spots.
Lol, when I hear someone say so-and-son team didn't make the playoffs, I'm like, what how much do they suck. Lol now Nucks are gunna have to try harder for those spots.

They say the main reasons are timezones and geography and what not but a lot of things r still unclear; like the wild card thing.

But the unbalance sucks for the weaker eastern teams. Statistically actually there are quite a bit of imbalances. Lol, I guess I'm not that worried cuz the west isn't too too affected.

I have my opinions but I guess we'll all just have to wait it out and see how it goes.
