Are you talking about their old unis or the new one; they have new uniforms
this year.  I have to give my own opinion about this.  Many people in
Vancouver, especially some ass reporters, gave the Canucks a rough time
about their old uniforms, saing that the reason the Canucks are such a
bad team is their uniforms.  Well, I guess managements proved these people
wrong this year.  Anyways, they have new uniforms this year (at leas the shirts
are a new stile), and I think the new ones look horrible.  I know a whole bunch
of people won't agree with me, but the Canucks went from the best uniforms
in the league to the worst.  In my opinion, the old ones were unique, you 
could recognize them right off when you say some highlights on TV.  Now, they
look just like the other teams, except even less interesting.  Maybe after
this season they'll figure it wasn't the unis, and they'll go back to the
good old days, although I doubt it.

I didn't see the game, but I say some highlights, and I don't think any of
the players went into the stands, but they tried.  Some guy sitting behind the
Canuck bench through beer at their bench (I thought that it was glass, I think
it was plastic cup full of beer); then another beer was thrown at the bench,
possibly by the same guy.  When the police was escorting the guy out just by
the Canuck bench, Cox (sp?), a young player tried to climb over the glass
to get at the guy, and would have done it too if Tom Watt does not hold him
back.  So I don't think anything happened, but incidentally, I think the
rangers were involved in similar situation before.  I seem to remember a few
years ago some players went up to the stands, can't remember if it was the
Rangers or the Bruins and which stadium it was, and one of the players was
hammering at a spectator with the guys own shoes.  Most likely, there were
suspensions in that case.
