CANUCKS PUCKS COMING SOON...
Most of the NHL starts on Wednesday on a TV with ESPN near you. The Canucks start on Thursday and play again on Saturday, both games (home games) televised over Comcast in western Washington over the CBC channel with the Hockey Night in Canada crew. Ron McLean will still be there and Don Cherry will STILL be nuts.
Thu: v. Calgary
Sat: v. Edmonton
The Canucks lost Trevor Letowski and Trent Klatt, but did get Magnus Arvedson and Ken Klee. They also got the Moose, Johan Hedberg to give Dan Cloutier a kick in the butt for the goalie job because frankly, Cloutier needs it.
As for the scoring, most of the guys are there. Naslund, Bertuzzi, Morrison. The Sedin twins. Mattias Ohlund and Ed Jovanovski hold down the blue line.
Hopefully my computer wave audio sorts itself out, and hopefully NHL.com is still streaming out game audio for free, because I want the CKNW-98 feed of the Canucks games. And I WANT the direct link from the radio booth to the PA guy when the penalties are announced -- "Edmonton penalty on number 94 Ryan Smyth for hooking, Smyth for hooking at 14:27."
Hockey. The coolest game on earth. Or at least it will be until the impending postseason labor dispute which will happen about ten months from now.
