PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."
For me, the series was over for Vancouver when Henrietta Sedin got punched six times in the face by Brad Marchand in the third period of Game 6 ... and there was no penalty. Even more telling was that nobody rushed to Henrietta's defence.
To me, that is incomprehensible. You stick up for your team captain, period, and you knock Marchand down to let him know that Sedin is hands off or at the very least show the Bruins that they're not going to get away with pushing the Canucks around.
That's a clear signal that Henrietta doesn't have the respect of his teammates and there was no heart and desire in the team, so it was easy to predict what would happen in Game 7. The Canucks, as a roster, is pretty much set (other than at goaltender as Luongo needs a heart transplant) but they need to demote Sedin and install a fire-breather as captain.
I guarantee you that if Mark Messier was still in town, Marchand would have been knocked ten feet back after the first two or three punches, then the Canucks would have won last night after he railed at his teammates to step it up.
