    Quinn Hughes | #43 | D

    in Current Roster

    Posted

    Sorry in advance for the dumb question - my son wants a Quinn Hughes Jersey in the black/ retro skate jersey. I’m new to getting jerseys. Any advice on best place to get a quality one? I assume you probably have to buy right from the Canucks store at Rogers?

    I just hope that Green fully understands the bigger picture going on here and is not just treating this thing as another Virtanen issue using TOI as a means to motivate

    Green is around Brock several hours every day. I’m pretty sure he has a better grasp on the big picture than those of us watching games from the stands or as pixels on a screen from our couches. Enjoy the wins. I’m sure Brock is.

    Why the secrecy around the “injury”?  

    Who knows. Could also ask why the incessant fans/ media’s need to know. Could be as simple as privacy, which he is entitled to, or could be they know if they say one thing, the media will jump on it and ask 1000 more things. Taking away from what the real focus should be. I dunno, I trust the team and the doctors. And respect the privacy if that’s the choice.

    Benning said he was supposed to return after all star break, someone can correct me if I’m wrong.

     

    Thought it was due to concussion issues again. They should just shut him down for the season either way imo.

    As much I have concern for the health and well being of all players, I’m simply not a fan of these types of statements given we know zero about the situation. These guys are competitive professional athletes that want to play, and are in the hands of doctors that have knowledge that are not going to risk their professional reputation to green light someone to play. If anything they are more conservative, putting health FAR before the team’s player composition.

    Always scary near the benches when the door is open.

    I’m totally on board with Burke’s take on it that the doors shouldn’t be open during plays. We’ve been jumping over the boards since Peewee (er I mean U12 or whatever it is? Lol). I’m sure these athletes can manage. Would like to see that rule happen.

    I never debated who was at fault here. I think it's contradictory to praise a dangerous act and complain about them in the same breath.

    Disagree here. If the said retaliatory dangerous act serves to reduce future inciting dangerous acts, either through league action on penalizing the careless hits or through people like MT finally getting it and not want to get pummeled again, then I think it’s justified.

    I guess so. It’s just hard for me to imagine the scenario they would use that as opposed to saying something like “the face off is in the Calgary end”

     

    Thanks for trying to shed light on it. 

    For those of us stuck listening to it on the radio on the way home from work, it helps to visualize as if I’m watching. I actually appreciate them saying that for that reason.

    wow, ok so are you on Rogers then? I thought they had exclusive rights on mobile.. 

    I wonder if Sportsnet would just work by itself out of country.. 

    I guess I should have added that info. Lol. I am on Telus mobility, and Telus Optik with Sportsnet. So can stream SN on any device. As others have stated, Reddit is also good. I use that for out of market games. And yes, Bilasports is one of my favorites for quality and ease of use.

    I was just in Hawaii and was able to stream sportsnet fine. Well, I shouldn’t say 100% fine. When on Wi-Fi, I did have trouble at first and video wouldn’t load. But the workaround for me was to go on cellular first, start watching (for some reason SN was fine on cell), then turn off cellular while streaming so it reverted back to Wi-Fi. In hindsight I would rather it not have worked as I had to watch the loser leafs beat us.
