Pathetic, but a win is a win.
Full marks to the Nucks for not showing any rust, but just an atrocious meltdown in the 3rd. I would never have expected the Canucks to lose a 3-0 lead at home, with one period left. Hordichuk taking a stupid penalty didn't help. Against the Blues, he was an asset, hitting everything that moved, and not taking penalties. So far against the Hawks, he's going out of his way to make a hit, getting himself out of position, and taking a penalty. Challenging the entire 4th line to a fight also does not help. If he keeps this up, I expect him to be scratched soon. Good to see that they weren't in the box too often (3 times).
I expected the Hawks to come out harder than they did. Looks like they saved it all for the third. How great is Kane.........sick to his stomach a few days ago, and he comes up big when his team needs him, scoring 2. He could have easily been the first star (was the third star). They also took quite a bit of penalties. The Canucks not cashing in on their two 4 minute PP's (poor Welly's face) almost cost them. That's not acceptable.
