Canucks 5 Oilers 2

A much better effort last night as the addition of Rick Rypien to the lineup from the Manitoba Moose spurred the Canucks to a 5-2 victory over the Oilers in Edmonton. Rypien had a goal and assisted on Alex Burrows' game winner, a beautiful shorthanded breakaway goal. They also got goals from Henrik Sedin, Brendan Morrison and Markus Naslund. Roberto Luongo was strong, making 28 saves, allowing goals by Sheldon Souray and Raffi Torres. Complete post game wrap up and pregame show will be posted soon, and I make my official debut on Nucks Talk Radio this afternoon with co-host Flinch. More details on that asap.
