Look for an outright slugfest in Boston to set the tone on home ice.

Seriously, heartbreaking loses for the goalie from both games.

Series is over. Statistical history is very much on the Canuck's side at this point.

Statistically speaking...

Interesting stats:

First two games won by a grand total of 29 seconds - :18 remaining game 1, :11 into first OT game 2

It would be a miracle if Boston came back and won. I think the Canucks broke their back, for once it's the Canucks who look like they have everything going for them and not the other way around.

Believe me, I've watched the Canuckleheads since 1990 and they've always been either bad or just not quite good enough, but not this year.

Boston goalie has been playing great though and needs to keep doing so if they have any chance to come back.

I am without a doubt cheering for the Canucks, but that said this series is about 30 seconds away from being 2-0 Boston.

Anything can happen and you need four nails in the coffin to get the cup. ;) Go Canucks!

Oh man!

Total domaination by Boston in the second!

Seems like the entire period has been played on the Canucks side of the blue line.

I always wondered what it would be like to fight someone 6'9".

Boston wins the battle of the background music with Prodigy, Rob Zombie, and the crowd singing along with the Beastie Boys. If Vancouver plays Neil Diamond the series should be automatically forfeited.

Luongo had one of those games like he did in the Chicago series, he is usually good but then can let 7 or 8 by in one game, and he didn't get much help from his teammates!

Boston looked good and solid goaltending on their side.

That was the one game I thought Boston could take, if the Canucks win game 4 they head back to Vancouver up 3-1 and will be hard to beat.

This is either a turning point in the series or just a game where Vancouver blanked out.

Boston had the speed to the puck tonight. Seriously, period two was played on the Canucks side.

I not inclined to think this was simply a boston moment. Plus, you are looking at a goalie who still only gave up one goal.

This was a game where the Canucks were simply outskated end to end.

I heard on the news that the Canucks actually outshot Boston in the game, which is hard to believe.

Thomas is a more consistent goalie than Luongo. I wonder which Canucks team will show up tomorrow night?

Yeah, remember this is a goalie who only had allowed a total of 4 goals. And the games lost boiled down to 18 seconds and 11 seconds.

Canucks need to find their legs. They were simply outskated all night long.
