Round 1 Game 1 Canucks vs. Kings 2012

Well tonight is the night that we have all been looking forward to since July of last year.  The real season begins tonight.

Louongo will start tonight which is great he has proven himself in the first round of the playoffs to be a tremendous goal tender.   The slate is clean and we will see what the team is really made of.

The whole team is ready for the challenge and we should see what the next level of play will be like this playoff series.  The kings are no pushover team with Quick in net and a good defensive core as well as some size up front.  With Richards possible for tonight's game this could be good or bad for the kings as he has not played in a while and could be a little off.

As for the Canucks with arguably the best defensive core in the league and the possibly the deepest and most balanced forward lines, this should be a great series.

I for one BELIEVE!!!

update:  with only 2 votes on the poll Louongo wins!!! 100% of the vote.

Review:
Well that was painful, with all the penalties in the first and second periods with all of them crossing over the line.  With two, five on threes the score could have easily been much worse.  This was only the first game of the series and there is a lot of hockey left to play.  I still believe.
