Just another Vancouver Canucks appreciating blog. I love the Swedish trio consisting of Henrik and Daniel Sedin, and Alexander Edler (though particularly fond of Henke), Roberto Luongo, Alexandre Burrows, and Jannik Hansen. My boys are flawless and precious, and I refuse to hear otherwise. (x)

Sam Tageson lives the Shark fan’s dream
”Sam Tageson, a 17-year-old with a life-threatening heart condition, became the first non-active NHLer to emerge from the giant shark head prior to the team’s pre-game skate at SAP Center. After signing a one-day contract with the Sharks, Tageson stood next to San Jose’s starters as they took in the national anthem prior to Tuesday night’s game. When he was introduced to the 17,562 in attendance, Tageson, who suffers from hypoplastic left heart syndrome, broke down crying amid a standing ovation.” {article & video}
