The Canucks are a bunch of whimps.

This one is way too funny the Canucks are crying about the St. Louis Blues skating through Roberto Luongo's crease and spraying him with snow. This is hockey and it's game played by men not a bunch of girls. Come on Roberto your 6+ feet tall be a man not some sniveling junior high girl.

Well, if you are one who thinks the game has tamed down perhaps too much over the years, the latest round of whining out of Vancouver will make you laugh.

After Game 1 Canucks coach Alain Vigneault complained that the St. Louis Blues weren't just skating through Roberto Luongo's crease and bumping into him a couple of times, they were spraying him with (gasp!) snow.

"I'm embarrassed to talk about that. It's ridiculous. Nonsense," said St. Louis winger Keith Tkachuk. "There is no way our game plan is to go out and try to spray their goalie. You have to stop on the puck - just in case he tries to play it.

"You can tell the game has changed over my 17-year career, when you complain about something like that. As opposed to runnin' someone from behind or starting a brawl."

Vigneault did not want to address the situation again on Thursday. He said on Wednesday that he would talk to the league about his concerns.
