Tue, 23 Dec 2008 Canucks Sharks 7:00 PM FINAL VAN (0) - SJS (5)
Sat, 10 Jan 2009 Sharks Canucks 7:00 PM FINAL SJS (4) - VAN (2)
Tue, 20 Jan 2009 Canucks Sharks 7:30 PM FINAL VAN (1) - SJS (2) OT
Sat, 7 Mar 2009 Sharks Canucks 7:00 PM FINAL SJS (1) - VAN (3)
Sun, 29 Nov 2009 Sharks Canucks 7:00 PM FINAL SJS (4) - VAN (2)
From last years games, I would say Nucks might have trouble matching the offense of the Sharks, but if they have the first and second lines going like they seem to be right now, it would be a close and competitive match-up.

And if you watched the playoffs last year, the Canucks play their system and they control the Hawks. If they try to go head-to-head and play Hawks style, they get crushed.
I'm on the fence about which team I would want to see them meet, for both entertainment and winning purposes...
Jaydc:
Canucks are a much different team then last year.They had trouble scoring last year now their one of the best offenses in the league.And they have depth especially now that some of their injured players are coming back they now have three lines that can score.
The-Leak (aka) kingwell (bka) JULES:
I still think they have the same team as last year. The only difference is the upgrade from Ohlund to Ehrhoff.
Sedins/Burrows same as last year
Kesler/Sundin/Demitra < Raymond/Kesler/Samuelsson
Demitra has fallen off, so the Samuelsson signing was a suitable replacement. He now lines up with Wellwood and Bernier, who looked like they would be better this year, have performed the same as last time. Hopefully Pavol can make something happen there..
Would like to see these lines.
Burrows/Sedin/Sedin
Raymond/Kesler/Grabner
Demitra/Wellwood/Samuelsson
Rypien/Johnson/Bernier
Hansen/Glass
Jaydc:
I couldnt agree les with that evaluation.The sedins and teh burrows are the same as last year?Thats a joke right?henrik only had 82 points all of last season.hes already got 74 with 30 games to go.Burrows is also having a career year.If daniel hadnt been hurt hed be having a career year as well.They are far and away better players then last season,they went from great players to elite players this season.
Mason Raymon is also having a career year,and this raymond kesler sammy line is a big improvement over lasy years second line.They play with great speed and lead the play and have chemistry.
I dont know how you can comment on demitra when hes only played a handful of games.Give him 20 games and then we can assess his play.
And of course ehroff has been a beast this season.
The offense is far and away better then it was last season,its not even close.They are currently sitting fith in scoring where as last years team was at the bottom of the league.
