It's all about net minding.
The only way the Canucks can win is if Cloutier plays a great game (for him). Maybe they can get Cujo out of Detroit next year? What Vancouver needs is a first tier goalie. If they had that, I think they'd have a serious chance at the cup. With Cloutier you never know if he's going to look like Cujo or more like me in net.
I'm still hoping for a decent showing by him, but I've gotta admit, the Wild is looking more like a team of destiny. If they can actually come back twice from 3-1 deficits in the same playoff year, I see a Stanley Cup in their immediate future.

The soul and substance of what customarily ranks as patriotism is moral cowardice and always has been...We have thrown away the most valuable asset we had-- the individual's right to oppose both flag and country when he (just he, by himself) believed them to be in the wrong. We have thrown it away; and with it all that was really respectable about that grotesque and laughable word, Patriotism.
- Mark Twain, "Monarchical and Republican Patriotism"
