I don't know if they were even on TV though! Caps have to try and up the exposure.
Went to two Lions games so far this year... a couple of weeks ago we battled with the Alouettes before they finally rolled over late in the game, mostly due to the way we sacked the shit out of their QB. Yesterday, the Stampeders rolled over in about 10 minutes. Game was a laugher.
Can the Canucks really carry this start?.. I have lots of doubts. Our worst problem is our razor thin depth chart. What happens if (by which I mean, when) some of our best players start going down with injuries?? The team is held together by a shoestring as it is.
Still, can't argue with the work ethic.. or the goaltending.. so far.

yeah dude, our depth is hurting this year.
after our top line, who do we really have? a bunch of journeymen really. sure they got lots of hustle, but that only gets you so far.
as long as luongo shuts the door and the top line performs, we should be alright. if luongo or somebody from the top line gets injured.. look out.
I'm still more optimistic this year though. basically if you have a mediocre goalie you'll NEVER win a cup.. i don't think van has ever had a goalie with at least "potential" to win a cup. not that he has much playoff exp. but still.
