The People’s Power Forward

We got a great opportunity. We got a dandy out there waiting for us boys.

Offence: Play fast. Defence: Stay calm. Close the gaps and take away the pass. Move that puck any chance you get and keep bustin’ em.

Special teams: Be poised and attack your responsibility.

We can out hustle them. We can out smart them. We can out work em and out play em.

It’s real simple: You out hit them. You out battle them. You out skate them.

And you stay within the legal limits of the game.

It’s Vancouver Pride! Nothing cheap. From the heart. And earn it every shift!

Damn, I’m proud to be a Canuck… and I wear this sweater for us.

Let em know why you wear this jersey. Leave no doubt out there! Leave NO DOUBT!

Start fast! Stay on top of em!

It’s a game boys, but a good one. Let’s go have fun and make it count.

4 Games – 5 Reasons

Lets be honest. That pass to Matty for the tap-in, was straight up Gretzky.

Your 5-point streak is a lesson in leadership my friend.

Just remember – it is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

Strength and honor,

The boys
