Getting shut out by the LA Kings when your playoff lives are at stake-priceless. What an effort by this sad sack of garbage team. 
cratch: cratch: I know some people will bash me for saying this but this team needs a new identity and a NORTH AMERICAN CAPTAIN. Naslund has been awful since the olympic break. Absolutely awful. Unless the Greasers get on a cold streak I think the fat lady has sung in Vancouver. :x :x
I said half of the time I'd want Tucker on my team and the other half of the time I wouldn't. Well, last night was a prime example of a time when I wouldn't want Tucker on my team. I only saw the hit once and knowing Tucker I'm sure his intent WAS TO INJURE and then to top it off he takes a ridiculous dive.
I sound corny saying this but there is no such thing as winning honorably anymore. Any time a player dives he is embarassing himself, his team, and the league. Winning by diving is not winning with honour and almost every team has divers. Toronto has Tucker, Vancouver has Ruutu, LA has Avery, Montreal has Ribeiro, Ottawa has pretty much every player on the team, Edmonton has Peca, Calgary has Donovan,etc....
