Daniel Sedin Predicts Canucks Victory. Well, Maybe Not

The Canucks’ Daniel Sedin pulled off one of the funnier backtrackings in recent Stanley Cup annals. In Tuesday’s Vancouver Sun he was quoted as saying, “We’re going to win Game 7” against the Boston Bruins. But on Wednesday morning he softened that sentiment to a grand extent.

“You know, that was probably me being excited and the words came wrong out of my mouth,” Sedin said. “What I said was if we put our best game on the ice, I like our chances. That’s the way it’s been all year. When we play our best, we’re a tough team to beat. We show that at home. We like our chances.”
