[PGT] Calgary Flames at Vancouver Canucks | Mar. 31, 2023
viking mama replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
What??! He opted not to skate in warm-up for: family reasons. I’m a Finnish citizen & have dwelled near or next to Russia & know the real cultural-refugee fear that seeks asylum there, as do their conscription-dodgers. Leaving that propaganda-filled environment & surviving decades of indoctrination & then gaining more freedom is an experience that doesn’t necessarily bring a full peace of mind, immediately. We do NOT know all of the perceived consequences or propagandized pressures that his family may feel they could face in their Russian homeland, via any actions of their now more famous son. I have an inkling. His family might even feel like persons being stalked or experiencing PTSD. Older habits & fears don’t die off so easily…but hopefully over time, they may fade away. Love, peace & full-understanding go out to these Russian players & their families in these particular moments. -
How many minutes in power play time were gifted to the ‘Lames. Down a D. Canucks didn’t allow many shots on a couple of those CGY PPs, but they couldn’t get their own shots then either. Maybe wore-out Huggy & EP40 a little & took away from some of their offensive minutes….especially with EP40 in the box for a very bogus call.

On Sportsnet CGY feed: Crew claims that the ‘Lames have totally dominated this game. What??!! They had a puffter 4 min power play for a zit-scratch & other suspect calls, to get an abundance of power-play time. That’s the real reason for the skewed shot totals. Can’t stomach the Pro-‘Lames feed! BUT - I loved how just 12 seconds after showering the ‘Lames with all their love & praise, that those clowns had to eat some crow & call yet another Canucks go-ahead goal! BEAU-tiful!!! LOL Able to switch over to Shorthouse & Cheech now - where I belong!
