After the first period I had my doubts. Right off the bat, a stupid penalty by Morrison and I thought, "oh no, here we go".
But the Canucks did what they had to do.
1) They penetrated to the front of the net.
2) They played a disciplined game and it was Dallas that couldn't stay out of the box.
3) The Sedins woke up.
Luongo's great save against Stu Barnes late in the first will remain a highlight for years, depending on how far the Canucks go.
It's the stuff that creates legends.
This was a psychologically tough series for the Canucks, one that will help them in the upcoming physically tough series with the Anaheim Ducks.
