Canucks Roll On
Vancouver gave more belief that they will be a force during the Western Conference playoffs with a dominant 4-1 win again over Calgary at the Scotiabank Saddledome last night. It was a win that also saw a rare appearence in net by Roberto Luongo, who made several important saves to deny the Flames forward line. Good to see the Canucks management is getting some use out of his $64 Million dollar contract!
After a tight first period where the scores were tied at 1-1- the Canucks came alive in the 3rd period and aided by a flurry of goals by Maxim LaPierre, Mason Raymond and Daniel Sedin, another win was ensured and Vancouver are now sitting pretty at 3rd in the Western Conference.
Elsewhere the Boston Bruins won a thrilling contest 5-4 against New Jersey Devils at the Prudential Center. After a stunning start the Bruins found themselves 4-0 up by the beginning of the second period! But after a brief fight back through Zajac and Elias, The Devils cut the score back to 4-2, then Adam Greene scored to set up a tense finale. But when Tyler Seguin scored a tip in, the Bruins win was secured but not before a first Devil's goal for Matt D'Agostini.
Mats Zuccarrello scored in the shootout to give New York Rangers a 3-2 win over Toronto Maple Leafs! Henrik Lundqvist once again was the decided factor with 23 saves and the Rangers now are hanging onto to 8th spot in the Eastern Conference.
Phoenix Coyotes gave hope to a possible play off push with a 3-1 win away to Edmonton Oilers at Rexall Place, thanks to 29 saves by goalie Matt Smith and Colorado Avalanche salvaged some pride with a convincing 4-1 win over in form Anaheim Ducks
With so little time remaining we will see some great action to come as teams battle it out for the last play off places- until then, Go Canucks Go!
