Canucks coach Alain Vigneault cried about Tim Thomas after Game 1 and now he's crying again. As the guys over at DaysOfY'Orr said it best: "Vaginault is just pissed Timmy Thomas can throw better clean (and legal) hits than anyone on his team."
Make sure to check out the GIF that DoY have (via the link above) it clearly shows Thomas was in his crease, you know the blue area, and Sedin came into his kitchen so he got what he deserved.
Here's what Vigneault said today:

Here's what Vigneault said today:
"Part of Thomas's way of playing is playing out of the blue paint, initiating contact, roaming out there," Alain Vigneault said. "He seems to think that if he's out, he's set, and makes the save, he can go directly back in his net without having anybody behind him. Well, that's wrong. He's got the wrong rule on that. If we're behind him, then that's our ice. We're allowed to stay there. We've talked to the NHL about that. We've talked to the NHL about him initiating contact like he did on Hank. They're aware of it. Hopefully they're going to handle it."
