Canucks 1 Wings 2 (SO)
Don't get me wrong I was very disappointed with the loss to the Wings. The Wings were very short handed missing very key players but they joined together and had a great game. The Canucks had an great performance by Luongo in goal and he deserved the W. The team couldn't put one goal in and didn't seem to have the juice in the tank they've had recently in the third period to pull away from a team for the win.
The Canucks and Detroit are clearly in a class above most teams in the NHL, but I think Detroit still shows a little something the Canucks don't. I am not 100% sure what it is but it seems like when a game has the playoff atmosphere the game did on Saturday the Wings step up.
The Canucks should be able to take a lot from this game and learn. They kept their point streak going and will hopefully pick right back up against the Islanders in the next game. If they do learn and keep improving from this game we will see one great playoff match up this year because these two teams.
Pre game for Canucks @ Islanders coming up.
