and by the way – just like a typical canucks fan… you always gotta use the language, makes you sound like an idiot. “way to go assbag!” that’s a good one! i’ll bet that you picked that one up last year in seventh grade. goodluck in gym class!

dont get scared because we have the best player in the world, and i’m pretty sure we are not riding him… at least not in the sense that your boyfriend rides you.

He sure didn’t get any when he got high sticked by Adam Foote. Foote deserved to get suspended but did you hear Yzerman, Lewis, or Holland bitch that he didn’t. HELL NO. Yzerman said he didn’t hold a grude against Foote. The Canucks need to quick crying every time something happens to them, esp. Burke and Crawford. Those 2 are jokes.

THE CANUCKS thats who. i would love to see peter worrell jump in because we would have sent brookbank in to knock his monkey ass out. i just hope that on the 3rd of march when we play again that ruutu goes and takes out the best player you have (fagsberg) so the bullshit team you have will stop riding him like a bicycle.

If the player runs someone with an elbow its a penalty. Give him 2 for the accidental elbow ( if the refs thought it was accidental). Same as a high stick, not all high sticks are on purpose. The only chance of getting away with a high stick is if it was on a follow through. Ruutu should have gotten at least 2 minutes for blatantly high sticking Forsburg, but the refs knew they had fucked up so they used the follow through rule to not call the penalty because they were guilty.

Why is it that whenever – excuse me, take out the whenever, because you have lost to us for the past 9 years – you lose, you always need to cry about something. It was a clean hit, if you have never played hockey, then you wouldn’t know that it was a clean hit. Just because someone gets hurt doesn’t mean that it is dirty. You know what, Steve Moore must be a goon, with his going to Harvard and all, man all those Harvard kids are such a problem in the world today. Besides, if anyone went after Moore, guess who would have jumped in? PETER WORRELL. We win. Again. You guys should be used to it by now.

Right?????

Well wich way is it? Everyone has been saying how the nucks were soft and didn’t gun for Moore. May tried but the refs grabbed him before he could land a punch, and then gave him a roughing penalty for the intent to rough the guy up.

So in all your infinite wisdom you’ve managed to say that the nucks, playing their biggest game of the season should have spent the night chasing Moore around trying to clobber him. While in the next breath stating that if the nucks chase around the Avs players they will lose the game due to penalties.

I wasn’t educated in North America which should put this debate to rest right away.

How many times does someone have to lean in for a hit?

It happens ALL GAME EVERY GAME! A player is going to miss with a hit so he lunges out, leans out, sticks his leg out… whatever.

The FACT is, the kid did not run at Naslund with his elbow head him and plaster him into the boards.

Naslund had his head down around elbow level. It was a tough break.
