Mwahaha.
I hate the Canucks (obviously), and I hope the next team slaps them about. Wild4life! |

I'm just getting in IH, explain, what is a "sweep"?
I'd only just realised how I was getting offside in NHL09. lol. Love it now though. So please, add to my education. |

In the playoffs, each series is best out of 7. The Canucks won 4 straight games and therefore took the series. They "swept" St. Louis.

Glad to see a fellow Canucks fan on board.
![]() Here is my concern for the Nucks though - while it's great that they knocked off St. Louis in record time, there's also a danger in having 7+ days off. Canucks might be a little rusty by the time the 2nd round rolls around. If Anaheim knocks off the Sharks and the Nucks get the winner of Calgary/Chicago, both of those teams will be rearin' to go (although on the flip side - one could certainly argue that either of these teams will be tired). On the other hand - If SJ comes back to knock off the Ducks, then the Canucks and Detroit will play one another.....and both teams will have had a long rest. My concern for the Canucks is that Luongo tends to be a bit shaky after layoffs. |

Aye, lad.
Now we have to keep our fingers crossed that the Canucks get swept by their next opponent. WILD4LIFE! |

St. Louis*
Shitty team? Hell no, young and no playoff experience outside of 4 or 5 players? Yes. Not to mention every game but game 3 was a 1 goal game. Not an indication of a shitty team if you ask me. |

It wouldn't take moch for St. Lois toe be a good team. More experience, one or two veterans, Roberto Luongo, who knows in a year or two they could be very good. If you re-read my post I didn't say sweeping them was a sign of excellence. Just proves that the Canucks are above average, especially with the close score in games, but the fact remains that Vancouver won four games, and St. Lulz won how many. That's right! A sweep for Van city! Booya!

To be fair, I just watched game 4, St Louis didn't look shit to me. I know I'm not the best to comment on hockey being a noob n' all.

Na, I want to, but I don't have sky or even Channel M to watch Manchester Phoenix games.
If Five is dropping their NHL coverage after this season, I'm gonna have to find something else to give me my hockey fix. |

Some EIHL teams stream on their websites for free.
Also, I'm sure you could find an NHL stream too. When the Phoenix meet the Blaze, I'll meet ya there! |
