Kesler Hits "Rock Bottom"
After the 5-3 loss to Carolina Ryan Kesler told the media: "When the team loses and you're looked for to provide offence and you're not able to, that makes this loss even tougher for myself," said Kesler, who instantly knew it's been 14 games since he last scored. "I'd be lying if I said I wasn't...

Canucks 5, Stars 2
Just like against San Jose on Saturday, the Stars got the start they wanted. They outshot and outhustled the Canucks. And they got a Brendan Morrison goal against his former team to grab the early 1-0 lead. And just like on Saturday, they took a penalty and gave up a goal on the power play. A few...

The RPM Line needs to pick it up as well
I hacked on the "Unemployment Line" for it's lack of productivity, and I think that was justified. Alas, lost amongst all of the wins the Canucks have accomplished recently is a bit of futility from the RPM Line as well. Mats Sundin Scoring a goal in a shootout to beat his former team was a...
Canucks have a new second line.... but for how long?
From Sportsnet: Mats Sundin and Ryan Kesler, each with a goal and an assist, and Pavol Demitra, with two assists, were instrumental in Vancouver earning a 4-3 win over the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday night to snap an eight-game skid. And the mood was upbeat at Thursday's practice as...
Returning to recap the mess

The Next Canuck Captain
Five weeks from now training camp begins (and four weeks from now prospect camp will have already begun). I am willing to assume we can soon embrace a post-Sundin life and, secondly, assume that Gillis will strike out in the trade market and this team will - barring any Mason Raymond-like training...
