Game Recap: Canucks Defeat Avalanche 5-1
Oh, man...that score is awful, but it's not the full story.What transpired tonight is difficult to describe to anyone who didn't see it. Generally, a person who has seen enough hockey can look at a box score and have a pretty good feel for what took place on the ice. Oh, they had this many shots on goal, that many penalties -- that's why the score was what it was! Well, not tonight. The final tally was 5-1 in favor of the Vancouver Canucks, but with a couple of breaks, it really could have been very different. The Avalanche probably deserved better tonight; yet, at the same time, they also didn't. Confused? Yeah, me too.
