a top 2 line on a bad team, 3rd line here unless something drastically changes but maybe not even 3rd line, 4th sure but it's perplexing... think he'd be all over this with JT being out, not sure what's going on in his head not to be a force out there and actually dominate when he really gets going.. sighs... frustrating as F!

they quoted most of what some fans were saying that the team took a step back opposed to last season. Bo didn't get into details of his thoughts on it as he was smart enough not to but kept it to "we will prove them wrong as use it as fiery motivation" instead of bothering with the defence of the fact he thought it was it's actually bull$&!#e which shows true leadership by disagreement of it once and then letting that part of it go and turning it into a positive but that's our captain.. NOT short on brains!

Well you still have to be wary of that, NJ was like that when they won the cup, they didn't have a great team but really good, they simply out worked everyone and won it, it was as simple as that.. hard hard and work boots on, foot to the pedal, was surprising but they did it.

As I remember they all had us written off for years, won't make the playoffs, and same b.s. with TJ Miller was a bad trade and we got fleeced etc.. honestly, who cares what they say? meh.. same ole b.s. over and over like a broken record.

tied for 1st overall! WoOoOoT!! Nate looked great! and the Flow does it again! And Hoglander? 1st game, 1st goal? NICE! can't ask for more than that, wait.. minus the huggy bear scare! (heart in throat) Yikes... WTG boys! 7-3 with TJ Miller in the line up? probably! ok so we're in 4th from GA and GF but we'll take it

a simple risk management thing, nothing more... lessen the risk of injury before the season even gets started, it's not like we have a super elite team with tons of depth YET.. and not like a permanent thing.. I wouldn't suggest that! F no!!!

Hi, after I read that earlier, I couldn't believe it but after the shock wore off, I started to think about something un-heard of that maybe should be looked at and you may freak out at it and whatever BUT I have my reasons. Here it is, taking hitting out of training camp completely! I know, I know, WTF?? Ok first thing... a temporary thing, how long? Well it blends into another thing and the most important thing as a Canucks team and where we are in the rebuild, retool (lol) whatever you want to call it, it's not rocket science to know we still need awhile until we have a set solid experienced roster with really good depth so injuries don't knock us out of a potential playoff spot or a serious cup run, so your guess would be as good as mine but I'd say for at least 3-4 more camps... Is there a silver lining to it? certainly! from experience playing contact hockey in my teens and never even dreamed about not being able to take a guy of the puck with a hit but when I got older I got asked to play in a men's beer league and my jaw dropped when I was told it was no hitting.. I was like what??? your kidding! okkkk it'll be weird as _ _ _ _! but ok.. then it came, the guy asked me how well I could do using my stick to get the puck away from someone instead of pasting em into the boards or a open ice leveling, well I said, I never thought about it but ok I guess.. Suited up and hit the ice, wow these guys were amazing at it and I had to work double hard just to keep up and was dragging my butt to the bench out of breath and my buddy just chuckled but said.. see? It FORCES you to get better... So seems to me it wouldn't hurt to be gone for a few years so we don't risk injuries before the season even gets started, the league is way too good for that these days.. I don't know, maybe that's the part of me that been waiting for a cup since 74' and a bit... ummm.. borderline paranoid about it? Lmao maybe! I just want to see this team set up with regular solid lines that can compete with any elite team out there and not even one small set back, we've had more than our share of those... Sooooo... Thoughts? (flame away)

I was thinking the competition thing too but unless he admits it... hard to know... sad but hard to know..

Still thinking that would make SWAT members envious!

Hopefully Benning himself tears a strip off him!
-
Who knows right? bet it makes the news!! lol man I bet some SWAT team members are jealous of that piece of protection!!! wow!

Part of me doesn't even want to click and see what happened and cringe... my ex wife worked with head injured people after accidents so I'm all to familiar with it.. hope it was his shoulder or something, rather than a neck injury or concussion
-
I don't know what he was thinking, that should be a punishable offence and send a strong message, we certainly do not need injuries before the season even begins... that's bull$&!#e! Get em Travis!
-
omg I just saw this too.. ugh.. hope it's not serious.. crossing my fingers to see what exactly happened...

Into our own net? possible, very possible.. in fact.. likely? probably! lmao
