Vancouver's second chance

Tonight the Canucks face the Ducks in game two of the western semi-final and if Luongo and his mates are less than stellar they will not have the luxury of the lack of rest excuse. One thing is for sure, they will face the same odds as in game 1 with two of their best defencemen (Bieksa and Salo)out and they will have to find a way to keep it even without them. I believe the key for them will be to get an early start and keep pressing Giguere tight into the net.

The Ducks, on the other hand, look fantastic and Andy McDonald is one of my favourites for this year. If the Daily Wenzel had taken him in the pool (as I suggested two weeks before the playoffs started) they would be leading and I wouldn't have to keep saying I told you so.

All in all, we are hoping for a more exciting game tonight and looking forward to 3 and 4 in Vancouver.
