SledgeHockeyRules Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 By the looks of it the first practice won't be streamed thru the site. Major letdown & lost opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Just got back from practice. It was a pretty light practice, so nobody was trying too hard. Few things I noticed though: Luongo looked really good (not a surprise really). Alot of fans were Lu-ing and chanting his name. Schroeder looked a little nervous out there, but his skating was a strong point. Only problem was he was shooting it right at the goalie. He also went up against Manny and Lappy in the faceoff drills, and won a few, but overall I don't think he's a strong faceoff guy. Although Manny is one of the best so it's not really fair to judge him there. Tanev looked good out there too. He defintely looks like he's put on some muscle. He was winning battles in the corners fairly easily. Nothing else really stood out for me though, other than the fact that Raymond was probably the most noticable player on the ice. He scored some really nice post and in shots on Lu and Schneider. Oh and Hamhuis and Booth weren't at practice, I'm sure it's nothing though. And Volpatti was there, which was good to see.

SkeeterHansen Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 im sorry but this is the most ignorant saying coming out of the lockout. 2 lockouts in recent history. players fighting with owners. owners fighting with players. and a big eff you to fans. you can be a true fan but to turn a blind eye of what they did to us fans is just ignorance. so true fans never left what? left the canuck organization or players. because the conflict was between the two parties.

canucks.brad Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 The ignorant statement is actually exactly what I'm quoting, friend. A true fan realizes something: The NHL is a business. Their sole purpose(s) are to make money, and entertain the fans. In that order. The lockout was based on money, and how to fairly share the revenue. It's not as though they locked out to spite the fans, although some of the whiners seem to twist it that way. What did they really do to us fans? It's not as though anyone has died due to NHL withdrawl. "Oh the NHL and NHLPA are big meanies, we should let them know they made us saaaad". Get over it. They acted on a side of the business, while it may be unfortunate for the fans, that was in the best interests of the parties involved. I'm sorry, but the NHL and PA did nothing wrong. Quit being one of those whiners and accept that. Stop me when this starts to resonate with your sensible side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkeeterHansen Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 i understand its a business. but the whole notion of "true fans never leave is complete bs." i dont want anything free from the canucks, but im certainly not going to blindly support them with all they have done in the past.

canucks.brad Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 And what have they done in the past? Have they come to your house and taken your family hostage? Have they shown up at your job and requested your boss lay you off? What have they done to hurt you so bad?... I said it before, I'll say it again: Get over it.
