Kesler's play style just doesn't bode well for longevity, the Canucks definitely got the best seasons of his career. The same is obviously true for Bieksa but Kev's always had a touch of the casualness that drove the fan base nuts at times. I was hoping for more of a return for Kesler at the time but I'm happy from what I've seen from Mccann alone, let alone a season of Bonino and whatever Sutter brings.

Ducks with a 3-0 zip lead after one

... then give up 4 straight (last one with 1.5 minutes left in regulation). :mex:

1-6-2 now.

Boudreau is a great coach, but we traded our coach-killers to Anaheim so buh-bye Bruce...

And Getzlaf is out for at least two weeks after his emergency appendectomy.

I wonder if Kesler has demanded a trade yet. I mean his time is running out to win a cup and he is a competitive guy who hates to lose.

The Ducks are easily the biggest surprise of this season. Other than Chicago, they were the favourites going into this season, and amazingly they just can't find the back of the net.

Hilariously the Flames are tied with them in the standings. It must really suck to be tied with a team that got shutout in 5 of their first 8 games, and only managed to score 7 goals during that span, 4 of which were in 1 game. Gawd do the Flames ever suck!!!! :lol:

I am really hoping that Hamilton is the second coming of JayBo.

Bieksa is getting absolutely roasted on Duck message boards. Some even compare his casual ways to Sbisa. Sound familiar. They are not only calling for BB's head but they want Murray gone too. They are bemoaning the fact that they have two more years of Bieksa after this one and want their pick back.

Too funny, someone suggested they sue the Canucks under the USA Lemon law! Priceless.

Funny how none of Benning's moves have so far come back to bite him.

They must be playing chess in SoCal and the Ducks have been King'd.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Obviously who wouldn’t want to play for that team?
- Kevin Bieksa

He was seen by many as a replacement for Beauchemin. Not sure if many like the comparison now though.

Flemwads lose in a shootout to the Sens.

The loser point takes them out of a four-way tie for last in the NHL

(and into a two-way tie for 2nd-last).

Hiller allows 4 goals on 18 shots.

(luckily for the Flemwads, he got injured halfway through the 3rd)

(did Frolik steer Ryan into Hiller on purpose?) :drink:
