playoff frenzy
Here are some things I know:
1. The Canucks have lost the momentum. The Bruins have gained it.
2. I don't know if Tim Thomas is necessarily an objectively better goalie than Roberto Luongo, but his will is stronger, and that counts for a lot in this game.
3. I was really hoping this series would be close and competitive, like it was in games 1 and 2. Games 3 and 4 are really making me doubt the Canucks' ability to compete.
4. The Canucks need more. More Sedins, more Kesler, more Bieksa, more Bobby Lu. More. Or they will be steamrollered. Monday night and tonight prove that.
5. Whoever wins is getting inked onto my body in some form or other.
6. I thought the ticket prices for game three were crazy until I started shopping for tickets for game six.
7. I thought the ticket prices for game six were crazy when I bought them. When I saw what they were selling for after the B's took games three and four, I reconsidered. Seats next to the ones I purchased will be $200 more per seat than what I paid.
8. We should have bought our game 6 tickets just after game 2. They were much cheaper then.
9. No matter what I think about Bruins ticket prices, they pale in comparison to what fans at Rogers Arena are paying. $1750 for nosebleeds?!?!? It really is cheaper to fly out here and see the game at the Garden. That's kind of terrifying.
10. If the Canucks can't eke out a win at home, the Cup will be presented at game 6. Which just might take the edge off those ticket prices.
