From Center Ice!

[FrEaK4877]

I have that stick he is carrying, signed by him hahahaha

[jonski0911]

was that osgood in net for vancouver?

[waterfordjim]

@jonski0911 ^ What he said! XD ^

[VancouverCanucksRock]

@jonski0911 Osgood wasn't the only one to wear that ugly ass mask

[fcharest1]

Who are the goalie???

[jaj43123]

@fcharest1 Dan Cloutier

[fcharest1]

@jaj43123

ok thank's

[selannekariya]

To this day, I'm still having nightmares

[HigherPower2010]

danny boy that pretty much killed your career and you know it

[isohockey92]

What if Nick Lidstrom didn't destroy Cloutiers career?

[hockeydude161]

tht pretty much ended cloutiers career

[shanimal47]

imagine if we had luongo on that team instead of cloutier.

[FrankyBoy2323]

Detroit Rulz!! ;)

[mattcat9]

thats what we call a tsn turning point

for the series

Wings went onto win the cup

Van city was actually a fairly good team...but not strong in the net

[JimB667]

@mattcat9 they had one of the best top lines in the nhl if I recall correctly, Naslund-Morrison-Bert

[turfturbo]

He HAD been having a excellent playoffs until then. That goal destroyed his confidence and the rest of the series he just wasnt the same. His lack of playoff success is why Van sent him packing eventually.

[xlatinabebe]

im glad that wont happen to us again since we've got lui and even if he leaves next year after his contract runs out we have schneider =) lol i cant believe cloutier sucked so bad .. we thought he was better then cause he was hot but i guess not .

[selannekariya]

I put a paper back over my head when that happened...so so embarrassing

[limsniff]

Lidström :D :D :D

[canucks212]

clouthier sucks

[crashtestdumby5]

that was a sad moment because it was the turning point in the series

[dangleman1]

cloutier screwed us up in the playoffs

[bishoppx]

not really, he kept you guys in that series. otherwise you wouldn't have won games 1 and 2

[ScrillaVilla1]

Well if we wasn't there I guess you would have a point but If we had a better goalie things would've been different.

[bishoppx]

what?

[alvinlalala]

Clouts is probably eating crackers at home right now lol

[futuredetts528]

still made more money than all of us commenters combined lol.

[DXEXPRESS3000]

@alvinlalala and his topping would be Failure lol

[RedShotX87]

lol of course its against the canucks (im a canucks fan btw)

[Tonza27041993]

nice

[isohockey92]

pwnt

[Lwojcik77]

i remember this...this goal changed the whole series around

[Nazzylund]

cloutier sucks in my opionion even though i'm a canucks fan, like he always let in easy saves

[Cromulus420]

I still remember this goal. Lidstrom stole all the momentum back with one shot.

[PTHoeksema]

this just happened against the predators like 5 minutes ago!

[raph4485]

...the beginning of the end of dan cloutier.

[kibble45lol]

hi briana

[bansheeboy19]

are you nuts cloutier friggin sucked i feel bad for the team that has him  in the minors.

[grezgorztube]

I remember that goal. The Canucks were winning the series until that goal was scored, then everything fell apart. I liked Cloutier, but he just wasn't good enough.

[maddogmatt44]

what music???......ohhhh the post ringing ha ha i get it now~

[Willowjasper]

fucking horrible music

[DiddyIsGod]

Ha, the beginning of the end of the 2001-02 Vancouver Canucks. Cloutier just turned out to be a sieve after that goal.

[slpsbest]

CIV CIV CIV

[ukapu]

its fucking "sieve" not civ. sieves are what you use to drain and sift things.

[BooyakaBooyaka619Hey]

Canucks had a great year that time around.. They won the first 2 games of that series with Detroit (the hottest team in the league) IN Detroit... All they had to do was win 2 at home and they were on to the next round. But noooo Cloutier sucks ass and lost 4 in a row.

Now we have Roberto Luongo and things are changing.

[HolyHellPreacher]

Vancouver had that series, until that goal! Cloutier was a great fighter. We just wasn't a great backstop. Canucks fans, you won't have to worry about a goalie for quite a while! I hate you guys!

[OjackiejackieO]

cloutier sukcs , lidstrom kicks ass, detroit kicks ass, canucks too, and im a nucks fan

[ramennoodles54]

detroit sucks yet is in the western conference finals? how does that work?

[tripleplay1111]

they won the stanley cup that year.

[canucksfan94]

MoTown97 - 8 words "Detroit is the worst city in North America" (outside of Mexico).

[icuwoot]

Hey lets take a shot at Detroit for no reason! YAY.

Oh well, coming from someone who will probably be cooking fries at McDonald's for the rest of his life, it's not a big deal.

[damagedone37]

hmm lets see...still in the playoffs. hows the golf up in vancouver.

[DetIzRed]

Why do you guys always think you're better than us?? Stop being dumbass snobs

[MoTown97]

runescapesucksbadly- two words 'fuck you!'

[runescapesucksbadly]

2 words 'Detroit sux!'

[DetIzRed]

you are so lazy if you cant type one extra letter to type the word sucks and Vancouver didn't make it to the second round that year.

[arkantos980]

We have luongo now we made it to the second round this year we kicked Dallas's ass and u kissed their ass

[DetIzRed]

what are you talking about Detroit made it to the third round.

[arkantos980]

Detlzred-But 06-07 was our greatest year

[DetIzRed]

so there's nothing great about the fact that you guys never won the Stanley Cup

[arkantos980]

Im not a Flames fan ok im a canucks fan Im just spreadin out stories

[skinnymilk]

Vancouver has, but not the canucks, canucks have only been around since 1970.

[arkantos980]

We are going to make it next year our offense just got better with: Isbister, Ritchie, and all those guys and defense: Ohlund, Salo Miller, and all those guys

[DetIzRed]

Good luck with that I'll see you guys in the playoffs this year The Canucks are awesome now that Bertuzzi's gone

[HolyHellPreacher]

The new goalie helps a little, too.

[DetIzRed]

yeah it helps a lot! Luongo is amazing he deserves a cup.

[HolyHellPreacher]

Patience, grasshopper...

[RaidersRock]

Dan Cloutier is one of the worst goalies in the NHL - lets in way too many soft goals

[Prometheus666]

Cloutier was never stable after this goal and Detroit gained confidence as every minute passed after it. This goal DID turn the tide.

[apy99]

cloutier sucks

[00ColdFusion00]

Finally, I've always wanted to see a goal from center ice, dissapointed with the goalie though, there was no excuse for missing that!

[Canuck204]

The goal that sank the Canucks to playoff futility and made Dan Cloutier a douchebag when it comes to pulling it in the clutch in the playoffs. He did shut down St.Louis the next year but couldn't shut down Minnesota...

The only goalie that resembles this fool is Marty Turco..he has good regular seasons but chokes the big monkey balls in the playoffs..

[robertoluo]

well its a good thing i play for the canucks now eh?? i'd never let one of those in. ;)

[ScootGod]

We FINALLY recieved compensation for this goal...Bieksa scored from the red line on Smith of Dallas tonight en route to a win.

THANKS, hockey gods!

[rjsbird287]

What a shot by Nick Lidstrom (probably was deflected in)! That began the Red Wings' march to the Stanley Cup in 2002, oh what a year that was!

LET'S GO RED WINGS!

[ScootGod]

That's such a lame goal. Imagine what could have happened if that goal had never been scored.

[Crymson1]

Cloutier played very well, in the first two games of that series.

And Lidstrom is no slouch.

[Jordanux93]

The greatest goalies out there have proven themselves when it counts, and thats in the playoffs! Cloutier was a god in regular season a couple sesasons ago, but in the playoffs, he for some reason could never pull it off. That goal sealed the Canucks fate back then, and he coudln't shut down the Wild the year after. He was great during the season, but he dissapointed when they needed him the most. Lets just hope that Luongo can do what Cloutier coudln't.

[Crymson1]

That goal by no means sealed the Canucks` fate. That goal made it 2-1 Wings, in the second period of game 3; at that point, the Canucks were up 2-0 in the series.

What sealed the Canucks` fate was dropping that game and the next 3 in a row.

All goalies have bad bounces. Osgood took several in the 1998 cup run.

[mnaslund19]

wow.. i like cloutier and all but that was SAD

[War3zAficionado]

Loungo for EVA bitches!!!!!

[cablecharlz]

what coulda been..... if this goal never happened

[ollie7777]

And thus began the end of Cloutier's career.

LOL Exactley! ^^

[Leung338]

cloutier sucks balls always getting injured wtf is that its a good thing clouts is gone they should have got rid of him a long time ago

[Lithium1991]

Lets be honest here people. Cloutier is a good goalie during the regular season. The Problem is his playoff performence. He still has time to improve on that and I wish him good luck in L.A.

[xo0tinkerbell0ox]

omg you guys you better STFU before I track you down with hound dogs. Cloutier is a GREAT goalie and just because he let in that stupid goal doesnt mean he lets in stupid goals all the time, so you better SHUT UP.

[PhenomenalKing]

Remember the Minnesota series the next year (round 2)?

The wild scored 16 goals on his ass and made a historic comeback.

GREAT goalie is pretty high for someone like Cloutier, especially after this goal.

[xo0tinkerbell0ox]

are you just reminicing on his bad games? cloutier wasn't a consistent goalie; he had good days and bad days but when his head was into it, he was great. i'm not gonna take back what i said two years ago.

[PhenomenalKing]

I'm talking about when it actually MATTERS

His ONLY best playoffs series he had was against St-Louis.

He was good with the canucks in the regular season.

Now the guy is in the AHL (talk about being a great goalie, lol)

[anasaziapache]

And thus began the end of Cloutier's career.

[XKR]

SUCKKKAAA!!! LUONGO FOR LIFE!!!

[ScootGod]

cloutier blows

[Orwar]

LIDSTRÖM!! (thats how its really spellt) Im from Sweden and play icehockey and LIDSRÖM RULES!!!!!!!!!!

[cuyler1234]

What kind of sorry goaltending was that? But, you can't blame him, lidsrom's shot is ridicious and he rocks

[Honkanen89]

cloutier is the best goalie the canucks have had since mclean. over 100 wins for the canucks, dominating in the regular season but not a single fucking person shows an ounce of gratitude. i hope either luongo refuses to sign or fucks up worse then garth snow

[ckamo4]

I'm not saying that he's a crap goalie. I appreciate what he's done in the past few seasons, he's just a little injury prone.

[ckamo4]

I don't think they would have taken Cloutier.

[dopey44]

cloutier is an idiot. COME ON CANUCKS! SHOULD HAVE TRADED HIM INSTEAD OF AULD!!!

[bobcatnation]

yea, and cloutier sucks as well

[bobcatnation]

YEa!! thats my boy rite thur. Seven NHL all-first team selections, 4 time norris trophy winner, 3 time stanley cup winner, conn smythe trophy winner. THE BEST

[stupidsh1t]

Oh God, don't you remind me of this...

Goddamn it, Cloutier...

[drunkhomer]

cloutier suks
