Riddle me this: Sutter played nearly every game while he was with Carolina and Pittsburgh, but once he came to Vancouver he can barely play half a season.

almost every player misses games
the nhl schedule is insane for hockey
it is designed to prevent proper recovery time
and so injuries are inevitable
70 to 75 games played is a good standard to use for players
not 82
when players play less then 70 games there is likely a significant injury involved
sutter is now getting surgery for his 2nd hernia .. so that does cause a lot of missed games

It seems from the very beginning of the team that over the years I have seen a lot of western players come home to the west coast and think they have F$%^king retired already,"FEW" have gone on the really have helped the Canucks.
Look at Messier he was a total dick when he was here,(they actually made a leadership trophy in his name)WHAT A JOKE!
I don't know if it is the training staff or just lack of commitment by some players but the Twins hardly ever got injured and they played the toughest minutes.
Maybe bring in Henrik and Daniel to help separate the players from the wanna bees and get these guys in proper shape to handle the grueling tasks of the NHL.
OR, maybe this team really is cursed.
