Tale Of Two Goalies

Oh my god Luongo is the worst goalie! We should trade him for a puck bag and used jock straps!
Or
Roberto is a God! He's the greatest goalie in the world! No, not just the world, the whole effin' universe! Gold Medal Baby!

So another trade deadline has come and gone, and the Canucks, as usual, end up doing next to nothing. I'm not here to bash on Mike Gillis, it seemed like there wasn't much out there for the taking. We got a Stastny. Not Paul. Not even Peter, Anton or Marion. We did end up getting Albert Andrews or Andrew Alberts or Andy Whatshisname. There's another guy, but I can't even muster the energy to find his name, so I can butcher it in print. Who has the time that would take? Those would be seconds I could never get back.

It's time to deal with the fact that red has turned back to blue for all Canuck fans. The symbolism of this, so obvious Rick Reilly probably wouldn't even use it, gives us a nice look into the feelings fans face as the NHL season resumes. As we literally exchange all our Team Canada hoodies and toques for a return to our Canuck jerseys and ball caps, I have to say, it just feels strange. Maybe even a little depressing.
The Devil Made Me Do It

If any crimes are reported throughout Canada in the next few days, I think we all have a built in excuse. The Devil made us do it. No, we're not talking about demonic possession here, we're talking about rage based crimes committed after witnessing the way a certain New Jersey Devil "played" goal for Canada. Someone steals a car, blame it on the Devil. A dude robs a bank, the Devil made him do it. Hell, if there are a few typos in my post, you know who to blame.

Instead of racking my brain trying to invent new expletives to describe what almost happened to Team Canada last night, I'll focus on that big ole Russian bear that's lumbering around on the other side of the tournament. While most Canadians were still dwelling on what would've been the most painless way to kill themselves had Sidney Crosby not pulled it out in the shootout, the Russian team was losing in the very own shootout against Slovakia. Bonus point for local hero Pavol Demitra, the best Pavol with an "o" in Canucks` history, scoring the shootout winner (okay, so Pavol isn't quite a local hero, spending much of his time here alternating between being overpaid, underachieving or injured, quite a resume, one that he'll surely be taking to another team next year, but Canucks fans shouldn't be picky).
