Daniel Sedin Ready for the Playoffs!

Daniel Sedin who was actually injured, should be ready for the playoffs which is actually in two weeks! He did not play ever since March 21, when Duncan Keith had elbowed Daniel Sedin who had suffered from a concussion. He leads the team with 30 goals, and is second on the team , with 67 points

Interesting Facts on the Canucks

So I thought it would be interesting to post some facts on the Canucks. So here it is


The Canucks name was actually derived from a man named Johnny Canuck, who was a Canadian folk hero. He was a logger, skater and a hockey player


Henrik and Daniel Sedin own their own racehorse in Sweden.



Canucks fans have actually been voted by Spike TV to be the 5th most annoying of all sports teams and the most irritating team in the NHL (WOW i think its because the fans are very passionate of the team)



Canuck is actually a slang word for "Canadian"



Canucks Anthem

So I stumbled upon this on the internet and thought this would be great to share !


H. Sedin wants the NHL to have Harsher Penalties



When the five game suspension was given to Duncan Keith when he elbowed Daniel Sedin, the captain of the Canucks, Henrik Sedin was not too pleased. He does not think that missing a few games will change a player's behaviour. He thinks its all about respect, which I totally agree with. H. Sedin believes that tougher penalties will get rid of all this. But it makes sense. If elbowing, charging or boarding is hurting the team, one will stop all this. However, two or three days of game suspension is not going to help. I agree with Henrik Sedin. Some changes must be made. What do you think?

Vancouver Canucks blank Colorado Avalanche

With five games remaining in the regular season, the Canucks have stretched their winning streak to four games and won in a shutout against Colorado, 1-0. Cory Schneider had stopped 43 shots and recorded his third shutout, while last Monday, Luongo made his fourth shutout of the season with a 1-0 victory against the Los Angeles Kings.

Luongo or Schneider?



After 3 straight wins for Vancouver, it is evident Luongo is on a roll. However, will he keep this up for the playoffs? If Luongo disappoints the Canucks once again during the playoffs, will we see a drastic change in Vancouver this summer? Do you think that if Luongo's once again "chokes" his long-term contract will be moved and turned over to Schneider? As a Canucks fan, I hope Luongo will be holding the cup over his head this year! However, after a 38 save and 1-0 shutout for Luongo against the Kings, he will be watching Schneider play tonight against Colorado Avalanche.

Will the Streak Continue?

With Luongo's fourth shutout this season he has made 38 saves. Daniel Sedin who has recovered from his concussion, was able to play today's game against the Kings. Manny Malholtra, however, was able to score the game's lone winning goal. The Canucks had made the 100-point barrier for the fourth season and with two more points they can be first in the league.

Will Canucks take the Cup this year?

The Canucks have been on fire this season, but will they continue their streak and win the cup? The Sedins have great offensive tandem which is just what they need to continue being on fire. Of course, if we fail to win the Stanley Cup this season there will be many disappointed fans. The team's lack of success for not winning a cup in 41 years is making all the fans very impatient.


Duncan Keith suspended for five games for Hit on D. Sedin

Duncan Keith, defence-man on the Chicago Blackhawks had elbowed wingman, Daniel Sedin and had received a five day suspension. Well at least he will be getting a vacation before the playoffs! Daniel Sedin had suffered a severe concussion due to the hit. Keith had stepped up on Daniel in the neutral zone, and trying to  get the puck which was past both players, Keith elbowed Sedin right on in face.

I think we all know why their games are so intense..
