RECAP: NUCKS Win! Statement. Lose Game 5-2 to Filthy Bolts

Do you remember September... er...October in Tampa Bay? The Nucks embarrassed the Bolts at home in the 3rd and won 4-1.

Sure, the T-Bay team that rolled into the ROG tonight are a better team than that one - best in the league now - expect they wanted to make that ‘best’ statement in our rink.

At the same time, our young guys want to make their statement. That this season’s Canucks are fast, skilled and hard to play against.

As it turned out, it could be a defining ‘statement’ game for the young Canucks. When Pete was pitchforked by mediocre NHL player Matheson, now with a suspension record, the refs got the call wrong.
