Canuck Spin Zone

Today's Brad Ziemer Vancouver Sun article on the Canucks feels more like reading political spin, than sports. Brendan Morrison first pumps up the Ottawa Senators, ""That will be a big test. I think they're the premiere team in the league right now. You'd better be ready to play or you'll get blown out. We'll have a couple of good days of practice here and we'll be ready."

Then coach Marc Crawford keeps spinning: "Ottawa is a premiere team. I'm sure they are getting hyped no matter where they go. It will be a great challenge for our club, but we have a number of days to think about it."

Translation: We could lose this game. We could lose this game in a very big, embarassing way. This is our way of lowering your expectations. Please don't expect us to win. Not even if we give 110%.
