Puck You! The Legend Returns
Saturday, April 17, 2004
Overtime.
There are pluses and minuses of this.
Plus:
- The Canucks had an excellent OT record this year, and won a lot (11 times)
- The team with the most talented players usually wins in OT. At least in the regular season. The Canucks have more talent than the Flames.
- The Canucks have more veterans, and if you think guys like Linden and Keane aren't going to put up a fight, then you've got another thought coming.
- The intermission with hopefully halt the Flames momentum.
Minus:
- The Flames have scored the last 4 goals.
- The Flames have almost all the momentum.
- The Flames have a better goalie, although Auld hasn't played too badly though. But whether or not he's at fault, he's a rookie and the fact that 30 minutes ago he had a 4-0 lead can't be doing wonders for his confidence.
- Bad things always happen to the Vancouver Canucks.
Here are my OT predictions:
- Kiprusoff will commit some kind of gaffe. Daniel Sedin will score the winner. I'm not picking a potential Calgary scorer, because I don't think it's necessary. The Canucks will pull this one off.
Somehow.
