Smell the Glove by Spinal Tap? or the hockey gloves of Daniel, Henrik and Mats? The Hoff says watch out for the Nucks’ in the playoffs and here’s why.
11. But what about 10? No, 11. It goes up to 11.
The Canucks have been my team since I was a fetus. If you think i’m lying ask my mom. 3 kids. Catholic.
Through all those years we’ve had two Stanley Cup runs but only one I can remember (sniffs). Suck it up Hoff because this year is different. Its a feeling, a very strong feeling, in the my bowels. Did I just refer to myself in the third person? Anyway, as the regular season comes to an end we see the Canucks reel off 11 straight home wins, a franchise record. I know its only a little more than half of the longest home win streaks of all time shared by the 29-30 Bruins and the 75-76 Flyers, but I find this much less interesting than how the previous 3 Stanley Cup champions finished the season. Last years Red Wings went 12-4 to finish out March and April. The Ducks, 07 champions, finished 15-5, but also 12-4 at home during that span. In 06, Carolina finished 13-6 but at home were 9-3. The Canucks are presently 16-3-1 in their last 20 games including 11 straight at home.
Eleven.
They have 12 games left in the season with only 4 being at home. Even if they even split those games, which I doubt they will with the way they’re playing, they will still finish the season 22-9-1. Listening to the stats on the last 3 years champs ringing in my ears, I can’t help but think that the Canucks will be playing at an 11, and the rest of the NHL at a 10.
That’s one louder.
