puckbags 863 Report post Posted April 23, 2009 When the Nucks made the final agains the Rangers in 94 or 95 or whenever the hell it was they made the mistake before the series started of having a photoshopped picture of Linden on the front of the Province newspaper holding the cup...they just dont get it around these parts. After the game last night they pretty much had a parade on Robson st. They won one bloody series lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SouthernWingsFan 854 Report post Posted April 23, 2009 Meh, just something fun to do. A bit premature since it is the first round but nothing to get all that worked up about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pjgj13 30 Report post Posted April 23, 2009 This is the 1st series VAN won since '94 that did NOT go 7 games. I read that the other day and was amazed that it has been 15 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chairman Maouth 97 Report post Posted April 23, 2009 There was a Vancouver writer on the after 40 minutes segment the day after Vancouver went up 2-0 against the Red Wings in 2002. Not only did he state without hesitation that the Red Wings would bw swept, he was seriously talking about where the parade route would be. I laughed. Prove that comment please. I recall no such thing at all. When the Nucks made the final agains the Rangers in 94 or 95 or whenever the hell it was they made the mistake before the series started of having a photoshopped picture of Linden on the front of the Province newspaper holding the cup...

adtthosa 5 Report post Posted April 23, 2009 The 'Nucks are scary because we've lost to worse teams with way worse goalies in the past. I have been impressed with their defense so far but again...they've only played the Blues. The next round will be a bigger test for them, regardless of who they face (maybe not Calgary).

Dabura 12,232 Report post Posted April 23, 2009 The 'nucks do not have what it takes to win the Cup this season. I'm not even saying that as a Wings fan. It's just the truth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rage 24 Report post Posted April 23, 2009 Luongo is a good goalie, but he's only played in 16 PO games his entire career including this year. This is only his second time making it to the second round. He hasn't established himself as a goalie to fear in the POs. So? How many playoff games did Cam Ward play in before winning the Cup?

M0DAN01999 6 Report post Posted April 23, 2009 (edited) bad idea, as a Mavs fan I can attest to this. Dallas starting planning the parade route in 2006 after the Mavs had a 2-0 lead in the series over Miami, they proceeded to lose the next 4 games losing the series. They have only won three playoff games since Edited April 24, 2009 by M0DAN01999 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
