Kesler's Return?

Canucks Look to get Kesler back for tonight's game against Dallas
Tonight is the first meeting of the season against the Canucks and the Stars at Rogers Arena.  The Canucks have won six straight and now are starting to climb in the western conference, and the Canucks do not see this streak stopping anytime soon in the future and neither do I.

The biggest news about tonight's game is that the Canucks second line center, Ryan Kesler has been cleared to play in full body contact action and may possibly make his 2013 season debut tonight against the stars who will look to end the win streak.  I don;t think there is anyway that the Canucks could lose tonight's game against the stars if Kesler plays.  The team will be so hyped up about Keslers return that anything in their way will get destroyed that includes the Dallas Stars.  This will be another step  in the right direction for the Canucks if Kesler can return which will boost the Canucks lineup. 

The Canucks have been hot as of late with Mason Raymond getting his stride back and showing he can be a second line player again after last years terrible performance.  Alex Edler has been hot as of late and has almost as many points as Daniel Sedin who is the top point getter for the Canucks with ten.  The line of Hansen, Raymond, and Schroeder has been good in the past few games and has been named the fastest line in the NHL at this time, which I do not disagree with.

We are fucked

As my friend AngryHabsFan eluded to already, yesterday was the end of the world as we know it for Sens fans. Matt Cooke's skate caught Karlsson in the Achilles tendon last night on a scuffle in the corner. First off don't even think that this was Matt Cooke being a dirty player and that he did this on purpose. It was just one of those freak plays that happen. No timeline has been given yet for Karlsson's return but I think its safe to say that he won't be back this season. Hopefully he can return from this injury and still be a great player. We already have Michalek playing on robotic knees so hopefully EK can get a hold of Milo's doctor. Speaking of Michalek he also disappeared before the game last night with a mysterious undisclosed injury. No word on what exactly is the extent of his injury yet. So without Spezza, Michalek, Karlsson and Jared Cowen I think its safe to say we are fucked and need to focus on shipping out Gonchar at the deadline and going

AHF NHL Playoff Bracket

With the March Madness NCAA Basketball tournament starting up tomorrow, people all over North America and abroad are filling out their brackets.  Even President Obama gets in on the action each year. Though my knowledge in sports lies pretty much in the world of hockey, I've been attempting brackets for the past six years.  This year my final four are: Kentucky, Syracuse, Missouri, and North Carolina. When it comes to the NHL nobody gets excited and fills out an NHL playoff bracket.  I am here to change that today. Since my creative juices are lacking in humour during this dismal time in Montreal, I thought I'd throw together an NHL bracket of my own based on the NHL Playoffs matches that would be happening if the season ended last night. Please feel free to rip me apart in the comment section. 1st Round  East: New York Rangers vs Washington Capitals Winner: New York Rangers in 5 Boston Bruins vs Ottawa Senators Winner: Boston Bruins in 5 Florida Panthers vs New J
