Somewhere

Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright,
The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light,
And somewhere men are laughing, and little children shout;
But there is no joy in Canuckville — mighty Canucks have fizzled out.


Yes the Canucks are finished for the year.  A good run but at the end the team was just a shell of the team that played all year. It was hard to see it end this year with 40 yrs of trying for the cup.  But overall it was a successful season.  The two things that bother me the most are

1. the refereeing of this series.  I think that this was a major factor effecting the canucks.  I believe in letting them play but I think this was a little over the line.  

2. The aftermath in Vancouver with the rioting was just a small percentage of the fans.   Most are appalled at the behaviour.

But wait till next year.  Go Canucks Go
