Recap: 1/26/2006 Canucks vs Vipers

“I can’t believe we’re losing to the Vipers!” - This phase was reverberating throughout the Canucks bench for the first half of the game on Friday night. Fortunately a couple of the Canucks took it upon themselves to turn the world right-side-up again and dumped a bunch of goals in the net to get the Canucks the 7-3 victory.

The Canucks knew the game was going to go south quick as soon as they walked into the dressing room and saw our scorekeeper lacing them up. The group thought seemed to be “Ah well, we’re only playing the Vipers…” That attitude was evident early as Chris’s decision to play with his eyes closed resulted in the Vipers putting a couple weak goals past him. After much laughter at the Vipers high hopes, the Canucks jumped back on the ice and scored goal after goal to dash those high hopes. Silly Vipers… wins are for Canucks. Goal scorers for the Canucks were: Dave, Rich (2), Matt, Jack (2), and Joel.

Next week is a big much anticipated match against the Oilers. This will no doubt be a preview of the first playoff round so lets step it up and show ‘em what we got.
