Can Luongo steal one or are the Canucks just too banged up?

the Canucks only chance tonight is to catch the Ducks napping...

 

[FriendlyCanadian]

pretty much ya..

but still luongo is of the caliber he can steal a game at anytime if he's on, but he's gotta be a bit demotivated or have a fire lit under his ass.

the nucks only chance is to shutout the ducks imo, hehe. TURCO style. =/

[Spartacus]

canucks got guts

 

[H_T_]

damn. i got hammered on that one.

No one expected that, the ducks got lucky in the third that puck was sitting on the line by the post. They have great goaltending, I can't believe naslund scored wtf..

I expect a better performance out of the ducks in game 3.

I wonder what the odds will be though!
