Senators, Canucks ready for Heritage Classic

:sens: @ :canucks: Preview

SENATORS (26-23-11) at CANUCKS (28-24-10)

TV: CBC, RDS, NBCSN

Last 10: Ottawa 4-4-2; Vancouver 2-7-1

Season series: The 2014 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic marks the second and final game between the Ottawa Senators and Vancouver Canucks this season. On Nov. 28, Daniel Sedin scored his 300th NHL goal to lead the Canucks to a 5-2 win at Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa.

Big story: For teams on the outside of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the two points at stake Sunday will take priority.

"We need the two points badly right now," Canucks defenseman Jason Garrison said. "We have to keep getting points out of games the remainder of the season. It's a lot of fun and a cool experience, but we have to go into this game for a win."

"I think every game we play now is important so this one is no different than the last one," Senators coach Paul MacLean said. "So we're trying not to look past or make it bigger than it is. We know we have to win games if we want to … continue to be in the playoff hunt and this is the next one we have to play. So let's not try to make it bigger than it is, but let's make sure we come out and we compete."

I think the question of whether or not Kesler is traded was possibly answered when Daniel was walked off to the dressing room.

Come on now Doug. It's not THAT bad... there's at least four organizations more ****ed up than the Canucks. Hell, they have a looooonnnngggg way to go to even begin to be in the same class as those four.

Getting there sooner than I'd like though!!!

Saw that, and though 'WTF?! They cart in a Calgary band?!?!? There's oh, say, 10-15 local bands they could have brought in.'

I rest my case.

I rest my case.

Except the Canucks had nothing to do with that. That was an NHL decision.

Sure it was Randy. Sure it was. lol.

Not sure if home audiences saw the ad for ski doos which featured one of our favourite Canuck Captains....Mark Messier!!!!!

Every time his face appeared on the big screen during the ad, fans greeted him with what he deserved...

It was awesome
