    ' What makes a hockey team good? Is it good goaltending? Is it a good defense? Or is it a good offense? All of these make a team good, but the best team has all of them and more. To be the best team in the National Hockey League, you need skilled players in all positions, great leaders and exceptional management. The Vancouver Canucks possess all these assets, making them the best team in the league.

    On the Canucks’ roster, there are a number of names that would stand out in the eyes of a knowledgeable hockey fan. These names include Roberto Luongo, an all-star goalie, Dan Hamhuis, a reliable and consistent defenseman, Ryan Kesler, the leading scorer on the team with thirty-one goals, and the Sedin twins, well known for their astounding and unrivaled ability to find each other with passes in obscure areas of the ice, as though they were telepathic. The twin brothers from Sweden have combined for one hundred and thirty-five points.

    Statistics-wise, it is doubtless that the Canucks are at the top. The organization is tied for first in the league in wins (35), first in the league with the fewest losses (10), and first in the league in goals scored, assists and points. Although they have not claimed top spot in every category, all aspects are ranked relatively high. Therefore, no other team can have a higher overall ranking because although they may have a higher ranking than Vancouver in some categories, other parts are not nearly as high, lowering the average standings.

    Another major point that supports the Canucks is the difficulty in effectively shutting down point production on the team because there is a balanced offense and defense on the roster. Many teams have a few elite forwards and defensemen, but the Vancouver Canucks have several good forwards and defensemen spread evenly on the roster. What this means is that if the opposition commits their best defensive pairing to mark one forward line, the other equally potent lines would not be as closely checked, allowing them to create scoring chances.

    It is the same thing with the defensemen. Since the Canucks employ a number of equally skilled defensemen and not one or two elite players and four lower-end players, the team can closely mark all forward lines of the opposition relatively easily. This explains why the team is also first in the league with the fewest goals allowed.

    However, even with all this skill, bad bounces and luck may come their way. When times of crises happen, the team is not short in leadership. The quiet, resolute leadership of the Sedins, the serious, hard-working leadership of Ryan Kesler and the competitive, perfectionist-type personality of goaltender Roberto Luongo has all inspired the team to succeed. The team now sits atop the league with about thirty games remaining in the regular season. The Vancouver Canucks have proved their prowess in just about every facet of the game, save for winning the Stanley cup, something that every Canuck fan hopes is this year. Therefore, the Vancouver Canucks are the best team in the National Hockey league.'

    Go Canucks Go!

    The Canucks have a few key defensemen out right now, but are on a 6 game winning streak. They're also leading the NHL standings.

    I would bet on the Canucks.

    EDIT: Sorry for bad advice, I didn't realize the refs were watching another game.

    I guess Canucks but I'm not sure if Getzlaf is back. If that's the case Anaheim has some chance.
