Claus, it totally hurts being a Canucks fan, and the more so for you with your season tickets and all (which by the way if you ever need to sell a few games, im your man).

We ALL saw it coming in the last 2-3 months. The reason it hurts is we're a "don't worry, next year" type team. How many times have you said that phrase? It happens every year. It's a long ways a way till the 2009 playoffs, that hurts. I put my money on us squandering our 10th pick and taking a player who will be Manitoba Moose bound.
