The Vancouver Canucks beat the Dallas Stars last night 4-3. The fight of the night between Zack Kassian (Canucks) and Antoine Roussel (Stars) wasn't as evenly matched though. Stars rookie Roussel didn't seem to land any punches, and had his jersey covering his face pretty much the whole time. I guess you could say the Stars were 0-2 on the night. Check out the brawl in the video below.

Vancouver Canucks forward Zack Kassian is listed as 6’3″ 205, while Dallas Stars rookie forward Antoine Roussel is listed as 5’11″ 170. Roussel skated at Kassian full-speed and had the advantage early on, even knocking Kassian down, but once Kassian got back up he was pissed off and he went to work, just obliterating Roussel. I give Roussel some credit for going after...

NHL Fights: Zack Kassian vs Antoine Roussel Who Is Hiding Behind A Visor Helmet

Dallas Stars rookie Antoine Roussel can’t be serious rushing Vancouver’s Zack Kassian to instigate a brawl while wearing a visor. And you don’t even man up and throw off the helmet during the fight? So it’s fair for you to throw bombs at a guy whose face is exposed while your nose is hiding behind a wall?
Give credit to mountain man Kassian for continuing to throw bombs...

Dry spell of little concern to Stars' Eriksson
FRISCO, Texas -- Loui Eriksson definitely knows it goes with the territory. As a goal scorer, sometimes it seems as if the opposing net is so wide open one could drive a Mack truck through the crease while there are other times where nothing a goal scorer does seems to result in the biscuit hitting the back of the basket.
Well, the veteran Stars forward is definitely experiencing...

Cry me a river, don't do the crime, if you don't want to do the time. This is why people hate/despise the Vancouver Canucks. You're responsible for your actions on the ice.

Stars hope to salvage a win against Sharks
DALLAS-- A week ago Friday, all was well with the Dallas Stars. The club was fresh off a come-from-behind win at Vancouver where they trailed 3-1 midway through the second period before storming back for three unanswered to leave Rogers Center with a huge 4-3 win, their second in a three-game trip through Western Canada.
Glen Gulutzan's club headed back to the Lone Star State...

I am tired of watching the NHL Department of Player Safety go light on players that should be suspended for multiple games, this was a situation, that I believe warranted a 2-3 games suspension. By going light on Jannik Hansen you pretty much guaranteeing he's going to be a marked man in the next game between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Vancouver Canucks.
In summary, there...

It is no secret that the Dallas Stars are not a team that is particularly adept at defending the rush or clearing traffic out from in front of the net. When Kari Lehtonen is in goal, the team can often survive these shortcomings. When he's not between the pipes or has an off night, the Stars struggle.
In last night's 4-3 home loss to Vancouver, Cristopher Nilstorp was...

I’m not even quite sure what I watched when the Canucks took on the Hawks the other night.
The Blackhawks came as advertised and dominated the game to an embarrassing degree. Cory Schneider‘s best game of his career kept the game close but this was a lopsided game.
The ‘Hawks were pushing the puck through the neutral zone with ease and creating odd man rushes every...

They were still a little rusty looking at times, but last night the Vancouver Canucks looked about as good as they have looked in about a week.
Despite falling behind 35 seconds in on a goal that Iâm sure Cory Schneider would like back, the team competed hard and played as a team. While...

Dale Weise scored the lone goal to lead the Vancouver Canucks to a 1-0 win against the Nashville Predators on the road. For Vancouver, they were able to win both of their games in their back-to-back in Dallas and in the Music City. Head coach Alain Vigneault has to be happy about getting four points in two nights.

It’s never a good sign when you out-shoot an opponent 13-3 in the first period and nothing gets past their goaltender. It’s an even worse sign when the balance begins to tip back in the favor of the opposing team as the game stretches along.
While the Predators battled to capitalize on one of their many chances throughout the game, the Canucks...
