I just didn't bother to watch. I knew it would end on a sour note. :(

prolly a smart idea.
I stuck to the very end. the third period was killing me softly.
the final two minutes just burned me alive.

Some guy in my neighbourhood started bawling (or it sounded like bawling) loudly in the middle of the street. Does that count?

it wasn't totally the canucks' fault...can't lay ALL the blame on shitty playing. ^__^ because i mean...they kept getting all these penalties and NO ONE called the Wild! ARRRGH. evil biased people.

i know there were quite a few of the wild penalties that the refs didn't call. like the too-many-men one..that was bullshit. but then again, the nucks wouldn't have done much with the powerplays anyways, since they were all tired and didn't seem like they wanted the game at the beginning of the third. they just totally shut off comgin out from the locker room after the 2nd intermission.:(
but yeah, maybe everyone was bribed to let the wild win so they would make big money from sportsaction or something

They only did draw two penalties.. but you are right, there has been a bit of a seemed bias in the penalty calling in the West. As much as the Toronto fans will complain about the calls in their series, I feel it's deserved - there were more than enough penalties that weren't even called. However, with the Canucks/Stars, the Wild and Ducks get away with murder ( ... )

"the hockey gods just weren't with us."

I think this is the statement that best defines a lot of the playoffs, if not tweaked a bit. Rather, the hockey gods were with the destiny of the Wild and the Ducks, two of the three lowest seeded teams in the playoffs were to win. I think after the Ducks won, the Wild had it in the cards. That's just the way this year seemed to go.

Jovo has a physical and offensive prescense that the Canucks need and use well in their offense. Do I think he should be the best defenceman on their team though? No.

Something does need to happen though.

yeah. hockey involves a lot of skills, but the game definitely has a whole lotta luck involve in it too. I mean, why else would us hockey players be so superstitious if there weren't luck involve ( ... )
