So You Think You’re Tough - Round Two CLOSED

As you would expect, things got a little heated in Round 2 of our little game determining the “toughest” Canuck ever.  We will commence with Round 3 on Monday.  And promise to pick-up the pace.  This will end long before training camp.

Here’s a quick recap of Round 2 results:

1. In our most controversial match-up, Trevor Linden barely out pointed Ron Delorme.  You, valued reader, turned out in droves to vote on this one, which featured many lead changes and was basically a split vote from start to finish, with Trevor edging out Chief by the narrowest of margins.  So clearly the broad definition of toughness wins out.  For now.

2. In another ridiculously close encounter, Stan Smyl bested linemate Curt Fraser by a single vote.  Clearly, Smyl’s enduring legendary status in this town provided him with the momentum to get past the more dangerous Fraser.

3. In a battle of top defensemen, Harold Snepsts, easily out voted Ed Jovanovski.  We applaude your discerning taste.

4. And in a match that should have never happened, Gino Odjick pretended Mattias Ohlund was the St. Louis Blues, with a most logical conclusion. 

Thanks for playing.  Round 2 featured a record number of votes; we can only hope you’ll hang around for Round 3 (starting Monday).
