FLAMES 4, CANUCKS 1
Well, the Canucks last played on Saturday, and they apparently came out flat. Even Canucks radio color man Tom Larscheid called this one a "clinker." They happen every once in a while. They're unfortunate, but they happen. This one just happened to give the Canucks only their second loss at the Garage this year. They now have four games left on the homestand.
Trevor Linden scored the only goal for the Canucks tonight, his 6th of the year to bring the Canucks to 3-1 at that point. I began listening when the game was 2-0, fell asleep while the 3rd goal was scored, then realized when it was 3-0 it was pretty much over.
The Flames are becoming less and less of the pushovers that they once were. They haven't made the playoffs in something like seven years. You'll have to forgive my inexactness -- I've gotten about six hours of combined sleep spread out over the past three nights...not what I'm used to.
The Minnesota Wild come to Vancouver on Saturday. There's a rivalry heating up between those two teams, though it's mostly spurred on by the Wild fans who are Bertuzzi haters.
