The Western Canada TA Playoff Hockey Battle Begins.....Flames vs. Canucks
Flames in six....we have the Rocket Richard winner and the goalie with the best GAA in the NHL modern-era. The Bertuzzi-less Canucks backstopped by Cloutier are ripe for upset....if you can even call it an upset.
Go Flames Go!!!
Booooo :P I say Canucks in 7
Canucks going in vs. a far lesser opponent on the tail of a 6 game winning streak, which has been possible due to hot goaltending and scoring from all four of our lines, with the top line on fire the past few games, led by the awesome play of Naslund and Morrison. Calgary have a hot goalie... with zero playoff games under his belt, while offensively the Flames have Iginla and... yeah that's it, Iginla. Canucks in 6.
Flames in 7
Vancouver is gonna be tougher then Colorado, but flames are the dark horses of this tournament for sure,
even tho kipper has no playoff experience, he is so solid, and can play under pressure, i dotn think its gonna be a major problem, and if he cant handle it turek will step up.

I'd rather play Calgary than Dallas, as a Canuck fan.
Kiprusoff is a hot goalie. Some say he should be considered for the league MVP. He could be this year's Giguere from last year.
I say, Canucks in 6. We're starting to play better defensively, Cloutier is confident. All our lines are scoring. And some non-physical players have picked up their physical game.
Calgary, while great defensively, have trouble being consistent scoring. They lost 2-1 today against Anaheim. Conroy is a joke. Iginla is great, but your depth at center is a bit shabby with Reinprecht out.
Calgary in 7
But I think we can all agree that no matter who wins, this is going to be 1 intense and tough series.
its series like this that make me like playoff hockey
are you guys serious? im putting money on canucks in 4, calgary is going to be blown out of the water.
canucks in 5 or 6 ! no more no less!

"6 game winning streak" - Well done however the Coyotes, Ducks, Kings and Oilers are not very formidable. The wins against the Stars and Sharks are commendable |

"Calgary have a hot goalie... with zero playoff games under his belt" - I'd rather have Kiprusoff then Cloutier anyday....lest you forget how he pooched the series against Detroit not too long ago. |

It will be a great series...let the games begin. |
GO FLAMES GO
GO FLAMES GO
youve got pictures of Al there...does that mean you chear for St. Louis?
If Vancouver's defence, 2nd and 3rd lines produce like they have been, this series will be over shortly. I don't see this happening though but I still say that the Canucks will win in 6 or 7.
10 years ago and 10 years now. Need to say more?
Vancouver Canucks in 6!!
Might I also add I am wondering if someone from E-Town or Calgary can give me a hand here. I am thinking of planning a road trip down to Alberta on April 17th, 2004 to catch the game of Vancouver Canucks and Calgary Flames Game 6 providing Vancouver hasn't put out the Flames in Calgary yet. So if anyone in Calgary or Edmonton has tickets to the game or know of someone selling tickets, please let me know.
I am thinking of getting a few people down so far its just my bro and I. I am looking at about 4 - 6 tickets depending on the prices. I hope somneone can help me. Thanks!!!
I would have to say Canucks in 6 as well. Every game will be close as hell. I can't wait.
Although Calgary lost to Anaheim, I can say it's not going to be a blowout by Vancouver at all. Calgary's been fighting hard and has beat some great teams in the last month or two. Not to mention first playoffs in 7 years, I don't think they're going to just let this go to waste.
Flames in 5 baby =P

I think Thracky might be referring to the playoff buzz created in this city and the momentum resulting from the resurgence of the infamous "C of Red". It's quite the phenomenon...deprivation sure does lead to appreciation.
In fact, our local hip hop station even did a cover of "In Da Club"...something like "In the 'Dome chillin' with Jarome..blah blah blah..with a C on my chest, bring the cup back to the west"
Only 57 hours to go.
title change just for fun.
ill do it back after a few angry replies
The title change is ghey. About as ghey as the FLAMES!
