Filed under: Blackhawks, Canucks
There can be crying in hockey, for it is a sport fueled as much by passion as it is by artistry. What should be prohibited is whining, and we got another dose of it when the Chicago Blackhawks wiped out the Canucks in Vancouver on Saturday.There was little new about this round of whine, but you'd like to think classy Canucks head coach Alain Vignealt was above pouring the bottle. Vigneault was offended by the Blackhawks' lineup on a power play near the end of the 7-1 carnage.
To Vigneault's eyes, his battered team was facing too much skill.
"We basically embarrassed ourselves tonight in front of our fans, and they did everything they could tonight to rub it in our face," Vigneault told the press after the game. (The score was) 6-0 and they throw their No. 1 power play unit when it's 5-on-3. They have every right to do that. They did it. They were pushing it, and they did."
