Canucks Win Dogfight

The air in hockey arena was full of electricity as the Canucks played what might of been their most important game of the entire season. Roberto luongo and Ryan Kesler lead the way to a 5-2 Canuck win. Roberto Luongo said that he thought that it was definitley like a playoff game. The whole team needed that game to get over the phoneix game and they definitley did that. It was the most physical game of the year and the canucks had a lot of emotion in it and the hits at times were brutal. THat game showed what the Vancouver team is really capable of. The sedins also took over the game as they both had a goal and a assist while daniel lost a tooth while taking a high stick and henrik got a high stick to the throught. The canucks overall had the most exciting game of the year.

Canuck reports says that Luongo kept the team in it after they had not a very good start and he was outstandingfor the rest of the game. They say that the Canucks power play was on a tear in that game and in result for that they scored 3 goals on it. The sedins also had a breakout game as they each netted a goals and a assist in the game. While doing so they both got high sticked and daniel lost a tooth becuase of it. After daniel got high sticked he came right back onto the ice and scored a goal. It takes a lot of grit to be able to do that. They say that hopefully they will be able to continue there good play into their game against Saint Louis.

I think that they canucks showed a lot of grit in the game tuesday night. I thought that Luongo, Sedin's and Kesler all had there best games in a long time. Kesler scored two goals in the game and also had a skate blade cut him in the back of his head while doing so. The Sedin's both took brutal high sticks which made Daniel lose his tooth and then on the next shift he scored a goal. That takes a lot of determination. THe canucks were great overall.
