Canucks End Panthers' Win Streak, Like A Boss
That's what a streak dying looks like. - Anne-Marie Sorvin-USA TODAY SportsIt was all about Florida pre-game. Their 12-game win streak was a franchise record and the 10th-longest win streak in NHL history. A lot of talk by Willie Mitchell, bashing the Mike Gillis regime for its treatment of Roberto Luongo in his tenure in Vancouver. Luongo, when asked about it all took the high road, saying he had grown up and that a lot of things were going on at the same time back then. So you know, shut up Mitchell.
I caught the Panthers' feed for this game. Quite entertaining. When Jussi Jokinen scored only 1:20 into the game after a Jacob Markstrom giveaway, the love affair was on.
