Jonathan Toews: The movie
The Stanchion
November 04 2011 10:20AM
As you all know, I have entered the #replacethekb contest for the Province, in an attempt to give myself the validation I never received as a child. You thought my finger paintings looked forced and lacked substance? Well I'll show you Mrs. Henderson! I'LL SHOW YOU..... Sorry.....
Anyways, many of you are probably still debating why I should be chosen to replace the Kurtenbloggers at the Province, and I understand that. It's hard to put your faith in a stranger like this. So the only thing I can do, is keep giving you more and more reasons as to why you should choose me until you are convinced I probably should be nominated as president of the AV club as well.
Post-Game Podcast

Hey folks,
I'm joined post-game by a man who needs no introduction: Jason Botchford. We discussed the Canucks woeful performance in Minnesota at length, and Botchford brought some insight on the team's back-end issue, their reliance on Salo and the struggles of Malhotra, Kesler and Bieksa. We also gushed about Hodgson and engaged in some Weber speculation.
A massive thank you to Botch for coming on the podcast, it was a lot of fun and hopefully we'll get him on to talk some more puck again soon.
Canucks Get Mauled in Minny

The Canucks sucked tonight, but this picture rules.
Clutterbuck getting hit is great, the fans in the shot are funny, and you can see the puck going the other way to spring a Minnesota four on one. Perfect.
Through 12 games this season, the Canucks have been the picture of inconsistency. While, for the most part, they've played well and been the victims of poor puck luck - tonight was a different story. In tonight's game the Canucks were man-handled in every which way, and lost the game in a 20 minute stretch that began mid-way through the first period and ended mid-way through the second period in which they were out chanced by their division rivals by a tally of 17 to 2. Ouch.
First Ever Canucks Army Live-Chat

Welcome everybody to the first ever live chat at CanucksArmy.com. Tonight the Canucks take on the pesky Wild who always bring it when they play the Canucks, even though everyone in Vancouver (and in every NHL city basically) regard their franchise with little more than complete and utter apathy. Should be a boring game, but hopefully we can liven it up!

Sorry about the lack of head-shots posts this week, I've been extraordinarily sick. My personal health aside, let's get to it.
