Was closer then it should have been on the scoreboard (not even counting the no goal that LA had due to bad luck). Elite goaltenders tend to keep games much closer than they should be, and Quick is definitely an elite goaltender. Fortunately, Niemi has been excellent as well. The Sharks have been the better team in every game. If they keep it up, they'll be fine. Quick will have a bad game eventually in this series. | ||

Its just that Quick became soo good that he won the job after some years of them seesawing between the two. Yeah, Bernier was the other guy who everyone presumed was going to win the starting job. | ||

kinda surprised they never moved bernier like a year or two ago when that happened and there was still a market for young goalie with a lot of potential | ||

Of course Gillis is there because he is the hand puppet of the Aquilini and those guys have unlimited money to burn since striking gold in the Vancouver real estate bubble. Its a shame that Canucks could never get a responsible owner like Illitch. But hey, at least it isnt MLSE. They made it to game 7 of the finals...? | ||

I'm still pissy with MLSE for not offering Bowman full control like they did with Bryan Colageno & the Raps. Then they offered the Maple Leafs job to Burkie, lol. I would have liked to see what Scotty Bowman could do in this circus. | ||

Dave Nonis' team made it to game 7 of the finals. Gillis did to a magnificent job of handcuffing your team under the cap, trading away 30 goal scorers and bringing in valuable super stars like Keith -- I ride the Pine -- Ballard and Zack -- I cant score goals even when Sedins bounce htem of my throat -- Kassian. But I am sure next year one will win the Rocket Richard and the next will win the Norris. | ||

He would do what he did everywhere else, kick ass and chew bubble gum. Yall would probably have gotten at least a SCF appearance and probably a cup. | ||

Yeah, they fucked that one up. Of all people, why would you want Scotty Bowman reporting to anyone? He's Mr. Hockey for crying out loud. | ||
