The Day Of Reckoning Is Here... Hawks vs. Canucks Game 7

Over the past couple days I've been hearing it from a few Canuck fans on youtube and it's funny to see the team and fans complain about the officiating in game 6. They say they are calm and collected, but when you whine and complain the way they have over the past couple days it's obvious to anyone the pressure has gotten to them. For a series that should of been a breeze, against a team that's a ghost of their former selves, the Canucks have put themselves in a game 7 situation with everything on the line. Plane and simple the Canucks *Deemed as Canada's Hope*, is not as good as they keep bragging about. Sure they do well in the regular season but come playoff time, they fall apart.

So what do you make of this final match up this season? You have a Blackhawks team, though lacking in the depth they once had, has players that know how to win. Compared to a Canucks team, stacked with top players but haven't been able to finish. Home ice is in the Canucks' favor but, the Blackhawks have proven in the past they can win in Vancouver. This game can go either way, but in my opinion the damage has already been done. The Canucks are now exposed as the team we know them to be, and even if they move forward will still carry the question marks that have plagued them over the last few seasons.
