    I honestly think the team we have now is in the perfect spot for a Tortorella bump.  The last time, the team had too many older (stale) players in our core. Add to that Torts wasn't really ready at that time, and needed a break, and perspective, after his last gig in NY.  This team is still young at its core, but is just kind of lost.  They are a perfect fit for his style of coaching right now. 

    I agree with you - they need some new tough love coaching and direction.

  2. the team is easy play against because they are too predictable - systems and at the individual level.  Watching them you feel like you can see 5 seconds into the future before they can.    Player wise you would have to give the most predictable award to EP.   If this continues much longer Green's days are numbered for sure.  Playoffs for Jim boy if he wants to keep his job.

    thats old info saumurai. All workers have to be vaccinated by Oct 12th  (Don't get too exicted @drummer4now)

     

    • A new provincial health officer (PHO) order will:
      • require employers to provide information collected from all staff in long-term care and seniors assisted living facilities to the PHO, to allow public health to confirm vaccination status of staff.
      • until Oct. 12, require all unvaccinated staff to wear personal protective equipment (PPE) and be tested regularly for COVID-19.
    • All staff will be required to be vaccinated by Oct. 12.
    • Volunteers and personal service providers entering long-term care settings must be fully vaccinated.

    u are quoting from a 'news release'.  Can you show me clearly in the most recent 'order' or previous ones that show that full time employees need to be jabbed.  The 27th and 6th do not contain such info.   The news release you mention says 'will'.   Much of this is a mute point considering the % of healthcare workers that are jabbed.  But the gov't when it first made the order did not publicly say full employees didn't need to be jabbed but if you read the first act  these employees only had to test and disclose. Third parties had to be.  I would like to see where it says now need to be jabbed - I cannot find it, and don't think it exists?

    I don't think you understand what your position means.

     

    Lets try it this way. Do you think its OK for an un-vaccinated person to work in a long term care facility?

    they are if you read the BC health issue for care homes.  full time employees do not have to be jabbed.  only outside third party caregivers.  How many are in fact unjabbed - who knows, but again read the health act on care homes.  they must under go regular testing if not jabbed.

    In all fairness Lalji references - and quotes - Dregers tweet and his own interpretation "some Canucks players have become very ill". Then he goes on to say "I'm also being told ...." re the IV home visits.  He doesn't say Dreger is the source for that statement. 

     

    As to "Overdramatization", all that I have read suggests that the Brazil strain is more seriously debilitating, more easily transmissible, and for some groups, more lethal.

     

    See:

    This article doesn’t report what u say above.

    See i don't mind dark humour, but the original joke just wasn't that good.  

     

    Season isn't getting cancelled.  It's no different then any of us here.  If you get Covid, you go home for two weeks and then go back to work.  

     

    Btw I'd like to know if that piece of news is for sure by Farhan Lalji, the one about players getting IVs.  Hope they all feel better soon, but if that's some over-dramatized reporting by Farhan I'll be very disappointed. He references Darren Dreger in his tweet (who hasn't tweeted anything about it) and then says "may have gone to homes of players to administer IVs" 

    it came across as overdramatized and so did Ian's fear porn piece.
