That's a good one! My favourite is, I once heard this guy claim Bo's injury was faked so that the Canucks could circumvent the rules around sending him down to the AHL. What a knee-slapper!

My favourite is, I once heard this guy claim Bo's injury was faked so that the Canucks could circumvent the rules around sending him down to the AHL. What a knee-slapper! What, you actually think making sure that the rookie is at full strength before he gets his limited trial run to make the team before having to be sent back to the OHL for the rest of the season makes more sense than an elaborate ruse where he faked an injury just to get sent to the AHL for a short time where he'll play against a weaker level of opposition before finally making his NHL debut, thus giving the team longer to hem and haw before making a decision based on exactly the same amount of relevant information in the end? Weirdo. LOL (J/K...obviously!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For two weeks (3 games) they threaten to ruin any credibility they have gained as a group? Unless of course they're playing the old we watched him more than anyone in preseason let's not let him practice or play for a week while the rest of the hockey world is now in full swing and then bring him in behind the 8 ball.

EmployeeoftheMonth Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Nuck Nit you deliver buddy. I have to admire your dedication whenever you make a statement. I'd say the injury is convenient but certainly not created. http://www.tsn.ca/radio/horvat-dodges-major-injury-to-shoulder-1.98360 The Vancouver Canucks have dodged a serious injury to top prospect Bo Horvat, as Horvat’s shoulder is not broken following a heavy hit from Edmonton’s Tyler Pitlick. “It’s good news. We were worried for sure, I thought it could be worse than that, but I think it’s just a contusion.” said head coach Willie Desjardins. “But it’s big that it’s not broken. It’ll be a couple days for sure and I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a little longer. It seemed pretty sure.” Horvat has impressed in the preseason and seems likely to have a spot on the Canucks opening-day roster. The 19-year-old is not eligible to be sent to the AHL, and a fourth year in the OHL may not be the best route for Horvat. Forward Hunter Shinkaruk is heading to the AHL, as the Canucks assigned the 19-year-old to Utica on Friday. Shinkaruk turns 20 on October 13th. Shinkaruk had a strong preseason, with two goals and two assists in four games, but Canucks brass felt the extra playing time and responsibilities in Utica would serve Shinkaruk well. “I think that it’s a young guy and he’s got to get more of an all-around game to come up here,” said Desjardins. “I thought he was good offensively. I thought there were times that he showed really well. And that’s what we want out of him. We want to be a guy who loves to score, who’s quick on the attack – and I think he showed us those things. But I think he needs more experience at the pro level. He sat out last year for quite a bit of the year, so he’s been out a while. So to get his game to the best it can be, he needs a little bit more time.” Desjardins admitted on Friday that Shinkaruk needed to improve his play away from the puck. “I think it’s hard for young guys. There were a couple things defensively that maybe hurt him a little bit. What you want as a young player, is when you get here you want to be able to stay. And you don’t want to come up and lose your confidence and that could really hurt your career. I think he’ll get more confidence next time he’s up by playing in the AHL.” Canucks close the preseason on Saturday night, against the Oilers. TSN1040 has the call at 7:00.

poetica Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 The script wasn't elaborate. Yes, but by the time the director finished with his artistic vision of a "stick to Bettman ruse" it had become overblown and lost all semblance to the author's original vision.

nuck nit Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I suspect leadership at NHL head office would appreciate the game being played within the guidelines. Canucks fans should admire a GM that is willing to and can play the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
