I was already sufficiently confused thank you. Looks like Studnicky and Bear are both going to get in the lineup against NJ. It has been nice to get a couple days to enjoy the extended point streak and first victories of the season. CDC was getting downright scummy before that last game.

This was taken from a Daily Hive article dated May 3rd. Maybe they have finally decided on a site. Canucks building new practice facility and renos coming to Rogers Arena Rob Williams | May 3 2022, 5:31 pm The Canucks also appear to be in the final stage of deciding where to build a new practice facility. As first reported by Daily Hive in 2018, the Canucks were in talks to build a practice rink across the street from Rogers Arena, as part of the Plaza of Nations redevelopment. Those plans were abandoned in 2021, so it was back to the drawing board. “The other priority, and we’re gaining momentum on it, is the practice rink,” Rutherford said. “Getting down to two, maybe three different sites. Very close to making a decision on the site.” Refreshing the dressing room was a priority for Mike Gillis after he was hired as GM, with major renovations coming in 2009. The Canucks, unlike some other teams around the league, have never had a proper practice facility outside of their home rink, forcing them to skate at UBC and Scotia Barn (formerly Burnaby 8-Rinks) when Rogers Arena is occupied. The Canucks don’t need to look far for an example of a state-of-the-art practice facility, as the Seattle Kraken built one at Northgate prior to their inaugural season.

Bigger, tougher, better. Stetch is over-rated on here.

[Rumour] Bo Horvat Trade/Contract Talks
Goal:thecup replied to HOFsedins's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Tried it lots of times but always got annoyed with the time delay. I think you heard about it on the radio quite a bit before you saw it on TV if I remember correctly. If it was the other way around, it probably wouldn't be such a drag; that is, if you saw it first, then heard the play-by-play. (Which is not some rambling wistful listing of statistics that anybody could read on their phones/computers. Call the freak'n play, John!) -
[Rumour] Bo Horvat Trade/Contract Talks

Thanks guys for bringing me up to speed on the escrow payoff and cap increase projections. Can't help but think if Buttman had forced the Coyotes to play in a full-sized rink in a market that would fill the building, we might have already cleared the escrow. -

Yes, yes, yes. Why are we saddled with reporters who don't even like the Canucks? Jim Robson showed the world what great play-by-play is without bias while still a Canucks fan. Shoulda cloned that guy. I enjoyed myself Saturday night even though the Canucks did not play, because I didn't have to watch or listen to any of that crap HNIC production. -
