Now, it's sad that such an allstar player should suffer from such an accident. (ok, I'm a very bad boy but karma man!)

The “if the Canucks were a movie” thread
NewbieCanuckFan replied to Dumb Nuck's topic in Canucks Talk
Nope. That's *MY* autobiography. It doesn't count if you pay for it right? -
Most people might not remember how he got his back injured. From a cheapshot crosscheck by Gary Suter. That sack of manure also took out Paul Kariya with a similiar cheapshot that shortened that guys career as well. Guy who took out two elite players just flew under the radar. But a loser like Ron McLean would prefer to whine about Burrows.

10 years ago there were fewer AHL clubs playing in our geographic area. 10 years ago the City of Abbotsford had to bribe the Flames to put their AHL affiliate there. Not just to guarantee a given amount of revenue but other AHL clubs demanded the Abbotsford Heat pay for the added travel costs they had to expense. We’re talking probably millions of dollars. Team would be bleeding money with low ticket prices. Aquilini is also a businessman. Good luck convincing him to pay that.

You’ll get nothing of tangible value for DiPetreo (eg., very late draft pick) because he’s seen but two games of action this season because I dunno, reasons. Not sure Benning wasn’t getting on whoever’s case to let the kid play. Guess he was too busy amateur scouting. Avs wouldn’t have any interest in a goalie making 5.7 million cash next season who’s 31 years old with a save percentage less than 0.900. Avs are a playoff team. If they’re going to allocate that kind of cap space to a backup, he better have a better than mediocre save percentage.

Tom Wilson fined $5000... wait, what!?

That's actually the Brad Marchand rule. -
I wouldn't care much if it stayed that way the ENTIRE season if he played strictly on the 4th line. Looks like he got SOME time there in the top 6 with whatever Green was able to scrape together with the healthy bodies left. That should end especially if it meant a guy like Lind loses those shifts. Highmore is as inept offensively as Gaudette was defensively.
