The Goods and the bads going into the playoffs


After finally clinching a playoff spot with a win over the Ducks last night, I can now make this post without fear of jinxing us and causing a meltdown that could only be considered remotely feasible in Canuckland. Our odds of winning yet another division title are looking very good as the Flames and Avalanche battle for 8th, both of them looking largely incompetent and bringing me great joy while doing so.

The Canucks, on the other hand, have been large and in charge most of the season. A well rounded team with one of the best first lines in hockey, one of the best goalies in hockey(when he's playing well), and a defense that, well.. it has Christian Ehrhoff, so that's nice. Following, the things that make me nervous, and things that, for the most part, overcome that nervousness so that I can resume being an overconfident asshole.
