Back in 1982, Canucks coach Roger Neilson was frustrated with the officiating during the Stanley Cup Playoffs against Chicago. He protested by draping a white towel over a hockey stick and the rest is NHL history.At the beginning of May, all the Canucks had to do was beat Chicago to continue on in the playoffs. They lost. I lost the hockey pool at work.
Instead of waving the white towel in celebration, I am crying in my Canucks Hankie. Maybe next year.
