The Canucks dropping game six in Chicago, which puts them on the verge of the greatest collapse in hockey history and quite possibly sports. How else could you describe this series other than something fit for a Hollywood screen? I still can't believe this is happening and the only thing I've seen that closely resembles it is Major League 2, which might not be such a bad thing if you're a Canucks fan. After all, the Indians eventually win game 7 at home in their series against Chicago after blowing a 3-0 lead. They bring their fallen star Rick Vaughan off the bench to win game 7, which is eerily reminiscent of Roberto Luongo. Furthermore, the Canucks even have a redhead rookie backstopper in Corey Schneider to fill the role of Rube Baker. The only major character we're missing is Parkman who abandoned his team for the hated White Sox but I suppose we could insert Troy Brouwer into that role since he was born in Vancouver. Given the similarities here I'll be taking the Canucks on Tuesday night and move on to the Stanley Cup final. I can't make a prediction on what will happen once they get there though because Major League 3 still hasn't been shot. (I don't count 'back to the minors' for those of you about to point that out)
