My anticipation for this game is through the roof! I’m wearing Canucks swag all day, and will be layering up some more before game-time! Investing even more time & energy into the cause, now. The guys are making sacrifices as professionals to get these big Ws for us, so the least we can do is up our game as fans in solidarity with that! Break-out the terrible towels early, add a few more bells & whistles, & cancel whatever else ya got going on this evening to tune in, tonight! Keep the heart-beat of this team’s run towards the post-season party strong! Go Canucks Go!

[PGT] Dallas Stars at Vancouver Canucks | Apr. 18, 2022

^This! I still think Stecher was something special. Tho’ smaller for a defenceman he continues to improve in this league & has bags of the intangibles to give to his teams. Just ask World Championship Team-Canada how they feel about him & his heroics when it mattered most. Team chemistry is elusive, so when it has clearly been found blowing it up - is a very sad thing. Benning’s hatchet job (however forced by the pressures of operating in Canada during Covid-times) was almost like re-seeing the organization’s heartless dismantling of the Linden-era team less than 24 months after their legendary SCup run to game 7 of 1994. -
I think it very much depends on what Boudreau himself wants to do. Is it the team option - to bring him back, or does he have the option to return & coach &/or accept another role in the organization if his health isn’t up to it. What are the nuances of his current contact exactly? As one if not the oldest NHL coach in the league, VanCity has perhaps the worst and most rigorous travel schedule in the league. It’d be a stressful & arduous existence for someone half as young. I’m praying that Bruce-there-it-is wants to come back next year, but concede that the choice to return to the team likely rests with both parties - equally.
