from lords to wretches....

okay, here's my plan.  my main posts here will be recaps of previous games and previews of upcoming games, as well as the occasional analytical post.  for quick updates, i'll post links, fanshots and comments at Nucks Misconduct.

canucks-capitals recap:  3-2 canucks
-boxscore
-highlights
-more reviews: Japer's Rink, Yahoo!, NHL
great game.  ovechkin was kept down to 3 shots and a -1.  raymond had 2 goals, the tie-maker and tie-breaker.  semin and kesler got a couple flukey goals, and clark scored for the caps.  luongo got a great save on semin's penalty shot.  great game for the canucks, shutting down a team like that is pretty damn hard.

in the meantime (canucks updates):
-conference standings
-grabner sent to manitoba
-demitra heads home to slovakia to see a specialist
-as always, more updates at the links on the sidebar

canucks - st. louis preview: 7:00 pm tonight
-comparative team stats (look for canucks and blues)
-previews: Nucks Misconduct, St. Louis Game Time, Yahoo!, NHL
-last meeting: november 10, 6-1 blowout by the blues
the team that we swept out of the playoffs last year pays a visit.  they already got a bit of revenge, mainly because the nucks left raycroft out to dry and let in 4 goals in the 1st period of that game.  that was when luie made his return from injury.  canucks will look to right that wrong tonight.  being hot and fired up against the capitals, they better keep that fire going against the conference basement-dwellers.

okay, i missed the game since i was at work, but it sounds like the canucks played poorly against a bad team again.  o'brien did get his first regular season goal with the canucks, david backes scored twice for the blues, and tkachuk got the insurance goal.

as always, i can be found on twitter or at nucks misconduct (links on sidebar)
