So, the Canucks were put out of com­mis­sion yes­ter­day, los­ing to a team we haven’t lost to in reg­u­la­tion in 12 games. I was there, live, and let me tell you, we played with no skill, and worse, no heart. The Canucks have been a team that has been dom­i­nated as of late, giv­ing up two goal leads too many times to count. The fact of the mat­ter is, we did not deserve to even make the play­offs, and in the long run, not mak­ing the play­offs might be bet­ter for the orga­ni­za­tion as a whole.

But despite all that, I still wanted the Canucks to make the play­offs. Sure, we prob­a­bly would’ve got­ten swept by Detroit in the first round, you have to agree that play­off hockey is one of the most excit­ing times of the year in Van­cou­ver. It just brings some­thing to this city, it brings peo­ple together like noth­ing else. Its always the num­ber one pri­or­ity around here (like when I had a cal­cu­lus final exam the day after the first Dal­las play­off game, and sayed for the whole thing). The games are always more excit­ing to watch, and I love see­ing the city dec­o­rated in Canucks mer­chan­dise, I’ll espe­cially miss see­ing car flags everywhere.

What should be done in the off sea­son? I’m not sure at this moment. I’m hop­ing for a top 6 for­ward who is Cana­dian, that would be ideal, but there aren’t many options out there. If you guys want to see a good unre­stricted free agent list, check it out: www.hfboards.com.

Lets all hope Nonis can pull another Luongo-esk type deal
