Well it looks like Paul Bissonette's usually flawless twitter usage has finally got one of his teammates into trouble. That teammate: former Canucks forward Raffi Torres, who I personally loved as a Canuck. Raffi, however, made the idiotic mistake of doing blackface on Halloween, when he dressed as Jay-Z and his wife dressed as a pregnant Beyonce Knowles. Seriously people, don't do it, don't wear black-face on Halloween, or ever. It's stupid, it's ignorant, and it just doesn't fly.

This afternoon I got to talk with Canucks prospect Frank Corrado after his team, the Sudbury Wolves defeated the Brampton Battalion by a score of 4-1. Frank and I talked about the game, Corrado's being an on-ice trash talking chatterbox, the season he's having in Sudbury and Movember. Enjoy!

Though he's had a borderline disastrous October, tonight Luongo has a chance to redeem himself. I may be in the minority, but I for one believe he will get the job done tonight.
In honour of the Canucks embattled netminder, and his hilarious hair, I figured I'd write a quick song to express my continued confidence in his ability to lead a team to a Stanley Cup victory. I call it: "Redemption Luu."

From Chloe Ezra's lovely "Pass it to Comics" series.
On today's postcast I am joined by PiTB co-editor, and Backhand Shelf contributor Daniel Wagner. We debated Vigneault's pairings, "protecting the Sedins", and talked about how tired we are of Luongo/Schneider articles. We then proceed to talk about Luongo and Schneider.
