TGDT: 4/21 WCQF Game 5 - Blackhawks (1) @ (3) Canucks 9:00PM CSN

#Canucks G Roberto Luongo not available to media today, nor tomorrow (game-day). Being shielded by team when times get tough. #fragile



HAHAHAHAHAHA

That's actually a smart move by AV for once.



The greasy **** shouldn't be speaking to the media I wouldn't let him if he was our goalie (thank god he isn't).

Its smart but I think it says a lot about the Canucks as an organ-i-zation and AV and Lu. They seemed more sour than usual after yesterday's loss. We'll see how they respond.

Kudo's to Troy Murray for going off on the NHL and its' officials on the radio broadcast last night. He was livid when Scott was thrown out of the game with 4 mins left. John Weidemann made a great point soon thereafter that each of the Canucks "would grow another foot" to end the game. Sure enough here came the same hacks gooning it up and the Special person refs working the game looked the other way. As a nearly 30 year STH it appalls me to this day how the refereeing gets so bad once the playoffs start. They really start to look like monkeys fukin a football after awhile. And with only 2 Canadian teams in these playoffs look for both those squads to get most of the calls in their series.

I had an epic Stu meltdown in the chat as that happened and I called it before the game even started.... then I had a rant this afternoon:



After I post this...



So apparently Troy Murray had a Stu Like meltdown last night at the end of the game when John Scott got ejected for doing nothing. From what I heard he said... sounds exactly like what I said in the chat when it happened.



The refs job is to CALL the game not fucking manage it. You don't give someone a 10 minute misconduct for chirping... if that were the case no NHL game would ever be completed because everyone would be ejected. The ref's job is to CALL the penalty IF a fight happens... that ref didn't KNOW there was going to be a fight... it fucking pissed me off that this ref was trying to "manage the game".



Well guess what jackass... you eject a guy for chirping and then the goonery starts. How about you let Scott and Torres go and the whole situation is over with? I still think Torres has to answer to someone and I bet it might be Seabrook if he plays tomorrow... against Seabrook's better judgment that is.



Absolutely ridiculous to kick John Scott out... leaving him in would have prevented the goonery that ensued... but instead the ref tried to be the fucking hero and Stalberg had to pay for it.



What a fucking joke... glad Troy agreed with me.



Best way to keep the game under control? Let John Scott fucking fight Torres and none of the goonery that followed would have happened. You are out there to CALL the game, not MANAGE it. What John Scott did WAS NOT A PENALTY... if he would have fought... that IS A PENALTY. Call the fucking game you asshole.



Funny how none of those cowards said a peep or so much as bumped one of the non fighters. The ref throws John Scott out and look what happens... a thug jumps a non fighter... absolutely PATHETIC.

Yah how has that worked the last umpteen years since the Habs were the last Canadian team to win a cup.



That shit is so not true. You think the league really gives a shit about Canadian teams? If they did wouldn't you think a team would be in Winnipeg by now?



That's such bush league shit Maiden. Canadians are going to watch the playoffs regardless of who is in them. Unless you live here you don't get it and you follow that same old conspiracy shit.



Bettman loves the American market he could care less about the Canadian one. That should be pretty clear by now.



New York is a bigger revenue market than Vancouver. Save that anti-american team pro-canadian team bs. Its not true. The NHL benefits 0 from the Canucks going deep in these playoffs. They would benefit more if the Hawks did like last year. You know that.

NBC rules



CBC lives on with or without Canadian teams in the playoffs.

No... Kerfuffle was just a fucktard and deserved it. No point in having the feature if you can only give + rep.

It wasn't just Fluff. Ttunes Special person pussy from the officials joined so he could sit here and +/- people all day while playing with his tiny little dick.

How do you give the plus one?

 

[BigPete]

I'm taking every game now as a gift (starting with Game 4 at least)



I love my Hawks, and I believe, but one day at a time





oh, and **** up Torres please

Quoted for truth. I gotta say though, after winning my game 7-4 (men's league), then coming home to watch that amazing ass whooping of a befuddled Orcas team, I just hope we do it again in VAN. If we go on to take them out for a third year, great. If not, I'm cool with that too. We got our revenge...and we still got the rings and banner and class. Things the Orcas will never have!

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

So serious question... (if) Seabrook is in tomorrow. Do you ice John Scott seeing the impact he had last game and the game before... aside from the "penalty" he received?

Yes.

 

[supraman]

Even their GM and his entourage of douchebags and sluts get in shouting matches with fans... real fucking professional dickwads. If the fans are being THAT profane get security right away and have them removed.

Aw dude lets face it theyd be dickwads for not taking the flak, it is no win

This



CBC will broadcast every playoff game no matter who is playing,

 

[ytsejam]

My boss called me about 6:30 before game 4 and told me I could go home "sick" and watch the game if I wanted. (I stayed at work and listened on radio after 1st)

He says the offer still stands, I might take it today and get more hours with late game and all.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Luongo did say before the start of the playoffs he would only talk to the media on gamedays.



Probably to reduce his odds of exposing his numerous emotional breakdowns while the media is present.

Yesterday wasn't a game day... he was obviously avoiding the tough questions. Blackhawks are again in his head, I just fear that it is too little too late.



GAMEDAY!

 

[Spunky Porkstacker]

The 1st two games in Vancouver Comcast did not show the fatman (some have said it is Jakos brother) in the tux wearing the cumber bun doing the national anthem. Tonights game is on Versus maybe they'll show it.



Taking the crowd out of the game early and scoring 1st will help alot in bringing back a game 6 to the UC. The more somebody gets in front of Luongo and bumps him around the more we score on him. I think he's vulnerable right now after the shellacking he got on Tuesday.

 

[PatrickSharpRules]

Everyone remember, same clothes, soxs, underwear etc. as you wore in game 4.

 

[IceHogsFan]

Taken before game 4 I believe............ Come on you photoshop wizards, lets see this put to use before tonights game.
