Who do the Vannies want in 6th?

With going back to work after a 2 month paternity leave and having my 11 week old baby staying up a lot more during the day, my posting has gone down the tubes. For this, loyal readers, I apologize. Hopefully you've been keeping up with the LSF Tweets, but I figured I'd try and rub out some posts from my cell phone during work downtime, since there isn't any down time once I get home to the baby. I can't produce any flashy pictures on the post, but hopefully my clever writing will see us through.

Today's question is: Who do my Canucks want to face in the opening round of the playoffs?

The Vannies have 7 games reamining, including a little trip down to So Cal before the regular 82 is closed out. It is a foregone conclusion that the 'Nucks will finish third in the West. So, who would we be happiest facing in that first round 3-6 battle?Lets look at the current run down of hopeful first round losers.

Current #6: Detroit- 91 points.

Positives of facing the Red Wings: The Wings are relying on an inexperienced rookie goalie with Osgood sucking ass this season. While Jimmy Howard may have just over a 2 GAA this year, we all know the media tells us that the playoffs are a different beast. Even with Bobby Lu's recent struggles, I'd take him over Howard any day of the week. On the other side, the Wings are old man. There is no way they will be ale to keep up with my boys. We can run circles around them.

Negatives of facing the Red Win.gs: They are the Detroit. These guys could be that team that kind of comes out of no where. I know that's kind of lame, but isn't it true. Couldn't they be that team that goes to the Cup after a tough season? I hope not.

Current #7: Los Angeles- 90 points.

Positives of facing the Kings: I hate L.A. Does that count as a reason? The Kings have been good this year, but have been fading recently. This may be the right time to get them. Quick may be good, but I think we'd have a xhance in 6 games.

Negativies of facing the Kings: They seem like that dangerous team that could sneak up on you and kick you out of the playoffs. Don't you agree? They have shown flashes of being a division winning team, but the Sharks have been nuts, and the Yotes recently pulled away. To be honest, I'd be scared of these kids.

Current #8: Colorado (
