you would think they would want a Goalie who wants to play, so I would imagine this is true, and the change will be soon

Then again, it is Vancouver....

i'll give you Marchand's clip, though he did see and elbow coming at his head, but he has had plenty of notice that that is not allowed.

IMO i dont think that was much of a slash to Burrows...more of a *guess who's here* hit.

then look at #32 backing out of a fight after skating up to Thornton.
then 6 on 1.
then laying on ice to draw a high stick infront of the net and skating off as soon as you see the arm go up.

plenty of incidental contact on both teams, i think Bergeron drew a trip that was kind of weak, he was already going down i thought.

beyond that, penalties were even but the NHL took away one of the Bruins.

I actually thought Marchand was just ducking a hit.. until I saw the replay.. so yes that was a valid 5

I think he is... but I think the club isn't in a bad position. Schneider is on a tiny contract, and Luongo is on a gigantic one.

Soon, they'll want to sign Schneider to a bigger longer contract, and that is when Luongo will go bye bye.

full speed it didn't look that bad, but the reverse angle looked worse.
also looked like hip contact, not knee as people were screaming, and i would like to know just how bad he IS hurt seeing how he was stomping away after.

after the finals, AND this game, it's tough to actually feel bad when they are on the ice...there were several times they were just laying out during the finals until they realized there was no penalty and just skated off like nothing happened.

i would rather watch an all out thug team top to bottom than a team that pulls that faking crap.

2 plays sum up exactly what the Canucks are:

yes indeed it was a little love tap to Burrows to let them know he was there... and how does the hero respond.. by putting his stick to Thornton's throat.. WOW just WOW, and when Thornton responds they jump 6 on 1 LOL there are fans that cheer that?? really??? ( I am asking again: HOW T F does that become a 5 on 3??????)

and this is 2... this sums it up even better

frickin cowards


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7J08ogZ2erU lol he was like "WTF did I do??...I can answer him.. he is a COWARD .. that is what he got the 2 for... for being a complete douchebag

And it reminds me of last year, and the Captain introducing Burrows in an interview as a vegetarian after he bit Bergeron.

The spear to McQuaid's nuts 6 minutes left of game 7 that had been decided

Luongo bashing Thomas.. and how he would of did it right.. then complaining Thomas didn't pump his tires..

you could go on and on and on

yeah.. I'll take the Bruins

any day of the week..

the two in the fight offset.
Thornton slash (joke) and Burrows misconduct offset.
Lucic Objects on Ice (joke + botched call) and Lapiere misconduct off set.

Thornton and Lucic roughing are what gave the 5 on 3.

now Lucic was on the bench just as much as Sedin was, so that becomes a joke.
and NOTHING on the other 4 Canucks in the pile up...can you say roughing?
then again, they are all pussies so i guess you cant call that roughing can you?
it's like a pillow fighter jumping in the ring with a boxer.
