FLAMES 3, CANUCKS 2
Well, with all this crappy Mariner news, it helps me when some of my other teams do good. Not tonight.
The Canucks blew a 2-0 lead in this one. They played sluggishly. Todd Bertuzzi has a new mohawk.
Not a good way to come back from the All-Star break. The Flames had played the night before.
I could try to say some meaningful things about the game, but I'll just leave that to these two articles. The key moment in the game was probably when Bertuzzi got robbed late in the first period by Roman Turek. That goal would have put the Canucks up 3-0 and in the driver's seat. Not long after that, the Flames got their first goal and the game was a very different one at that point.
In a bit of sad news, Magnus Arvedson has three letters on his mind: ACL. He's done for the year, and probably is done as a Canuck altogether. It's sad because that all-Swedish line was really lighting it up and Arvedson was red hot until he got hurt.
Canuck goals: Sami Salo (power play, 6), Jarkko Ruutu (6)
Canucks Friday/Saturday at home against Atlanta/Anaheim. There better be four points out of that.
The Canucks are two points back of Colorado, who has two games in hand.
