Canucks Game 4 against Blues

Quarterfinal series games against the St Louis Blues began last Wednesday. I can't help but to be absorbed in the excitement of NHL playoff season. The buses display cheer it"GO CANUCKS GO". Stores offer game day discounts. 
Game 1: Canucks 2 - Blues 1
Last Friday, downtown was rowdy as hell. Blaring car horns, twirling playoff towels, Vancouverites eager to give hi-5s and share the joy of the win that night. No pictures unfortunately. Above is the captain and shutout capable goalkeeper in figurine form.

I wandered to BC place a day before Sunday's first away game in Washington. And at the GM place stadium, I stepped into the Team Store. Aside from the home and away jersey with the orca, and the third jersey with the skate-in-rink logo, the vintage flying skate design in red, gold and black is pretty sweet too. Anyway, purchasing a jersey was out of the question. I'll go back there again. Maybe a T-shirt or cap will suffice.

Now, I'm really rooting for them this playoffs. Luongo and the team just keeps my mood up despite the slow exam week. Let's see how tonights game turns out. One more to win. 
Go Canucks Go!
