Time to Get Tougher: Vancouver Canucks

Continuing the Canucks-Blackhawks semi-final action tonight is Home Game 1 at GM Place. Let's see if the Canucks, who remain upbeat following Monday night's 4-2 loss, can make use of their home ice advantage.

Another advantage: a tough lineup including Canucks enforcer Darcy Hordichuk, who was on the ice to skate on the fourth line during Wednesday morning's practice, along with Rick Rypien and Ryan Johnson, who hasn't played since breaking his foot five weeks ago.

Starting on Sunday, May 16 is the Stanley Cup finals. Here's hoping Vancouver has reason to celebrate.
