I'll say this once.

The canucks need to get Forsberg the next time they play. SOMEONE needs to "step up" and physically punish Forsberg.......whether it be a vicious bodycheck, or a cheap shot back.

I'd even go as far to say that someone should try and injure Forsberg (i.e. taking out his knee, etc. whatever).

I don't care who it is - you can't let ANYONE punk out one of your most important players. That's why I loved the 97' version of the Wings. McCarty beat the living piss out of Claude Lemieux for his mauling Draper's face back in 96'. That game alone in my opinion, was the 'passing of the torch' from the Avs to the Wings. It was that defining moment which made the Wings the 'dominant' team of 1997 and 1998, instead of the "more talented" Colorado Avalanche.

If the canucks don't do ANYTHING to get a measure of vengeance towards Forsberg, I will once again lose respect for the canucks.

Other than that though - great win for the nucks. They really bounced back after an atrocious outing against the Oilers. That's still not to say that the canucks are cup contenders. I still believe that the canucks are NOT contenders. They are still missing a few pieces of the puzzle.
