not necessarily. If they work hard they could give the wings a run. Really, the preds gave wings a scare for a second there too, and i consider calgary better.

San Jose in 6, then again, Detroit in 6. It would have been better with Hedberg in net, Auld is bad down low, and especially the five hole.
I don't know how much better Hedberg would have actually played for us. I do know that I'm still pissed a Crawford for the change in the first place, even if Auld did a giguere.

And sice their is going to be no hockey next year, this really sucks to have your team go out this way, and especially to a team like Calgary who doesnt deserve it.

Im not saying that they are a bad team, im saying that the Canucks deserved it more because we fought to win the title without Arvedson, Lindgren or Bertuzzi. And in the playoffs we fought back to a game 7 overtime without Arvedson, Lindgren, Bertuzzi or Cloutier. Im never going to be the same again, neither are the Canucks.
The flames deserved it more. They honestly fought harder with what they had than the canucks. Sure, we had some of our best players and #1 goalie out but look at the flames. They had just as many players out and they didn't have any depth to fall back on at all.

Because of this loss, Burke and Crawford are going to be fired for no apparent reason at all. They tried their best with what they had, and i say they should stay....Totally pi**ed off right now. Could not hate Calgary any more than i do right at this second
I don't see why Burke should even be considered as a possible firing target. He has built one hell of a team as far as I'm concerned. It's not his fault that our players were all injured.

Crawford on the other hand should be fired after his contract is up. The decision with our goalies is, imo, grounds for a firing.(even though the whole coaching/management probably had a say in it)

but singling out crawford..he is the one who's had a grudge against hedberg ever since he got here. He called berg 'terrible' after a loss in OT against Chicago....yet Cloutier's played much more worse games than that and crow doesn't seem to notice. Clouts is a good goalie...and so is hedberg. Crawford's just a dick. I don't remember if i already vented about him letting a personal matter get in the way of a professional decision on this board but you probably know what i'm talking about.

But at a sub-note, Ottawa, and Montreal all the way....or until they face eachother...then go Montreal!!
yes, go cdn teams. But hopefully Ottawa will get the farthest.

he is the Bain of evry fans existence right now. But i will say he's going to be a good goalie in the future.)...
dunno, i'm not upset with his performance. He did as good as I expected him to. He needs to get a lot more experience under his built though. His play as a whole isn't very good.

it's too bad taht Hedberg won't be playing another game for the canucks organization...the guy deserves better than how it's treated him. Well, maybe it's a blessing to get away from the nucks franchise...he'll be better off somewhere else where his career has promise.

again, good luck to all your guys's teams in the playoffs.

sorry null but i'll have to be routing for calgary(but not totally totally routing)

they are a cdn team. cheers.
