[GDT] Vancouver Canucks @ Chicago Blackhawks | Mar 21 | 5:30 PM | SN |

[Conscience]

I like watching Chicago play, so this should at least be an exciting game although probably not so much for us :/

[Apricot]

Straight up calling a loss here. No magic.

 

Canucks lose 3-1

Looks like we match up pretty well. Should be a close one

[Dr. Crossbar]

Boucher is definitely getting his opportunity! Now let's see that sweet sniping shot of his shred the back of the net.

I expect two shifts before he gets demoted and Megna/Cramarossa/Skille gets moved up.

Probably not the flu, more likely norovirus (commonly called Norwalk virus) the flu is actually just sore throat, runny nose. Norovirus has all the nasty weight loss techniques (puking and diarrhea) so if he lost 15lbs it wasn't the flu. 

don't make up diagnosis. Flu can be severe. It's not just runny nose. Some people get a lot sicker, and susceptible people get complications and can die. poor oral intake and appetite can caus weight loss, occasionally some can also have vomiting and diarrhea.

Norovirus is extremely contiguous.  if he has it, should stay away from the team.  Usually self limiting in healthy people, 2-3 days of severe vomiting and diarrhea.

unless nux said otherwise, no reason to doubt what they are saying.

Doesn't the flu kill a lot of us elderly folk?  I heard it's actually really bad.

Expect last line to only log 7-8 minutes the entire game, that lineup looks bad.

I ended up getting 2 different flus within 5 weeks back in Nov/Dec (one lasting a couple days, other lasting almost 2 weeks), it was awful but I don't think I lost 15lbs or anything despite having practically no appetite with the flus but some foods taste different now than they used to and I hope that's not permanent because I cook.

It can, my wife works at an old folks care home and said a handful of them have gotten the flu this year and a few of them contracted pnemonia and edned up in the hospital and one has died.

Can't be true Alf, I mean, we're still here

edit:  Had the flu this winter.... survived 3 days of fever but then blew out my lung and ended up in the hospital..... Didn't kill me tho

We totally need way more flu vaccines.

wth is going on with Goldobin?

The article in the Province said he was "down from 195 lbs to 179" ?

http://theprovince.com/sports/hockey/nhl/vancouver-canucks/jason-botchford-goldy-could-infuse-an-anemic-canucks-offence-with-some-colour

The team has him listed at 5'11" 185

So how did he GAIN 10 pounds when his total TOI for us hasn't even been 30 minutes, then allegedly got a flu so bad he's been out for 3 weeks ??

For someone not even 6' tall he didn't look anywhere near 200 lbs ..........

Round and round the young guys go, where they score, nobody knows!

 

But seriously, glad to see him getting the opportunity he needs.

Gained 10 pounds probably from eating over at Subway next door from Rogers Arena.

Willie stated that Goldy has only had one practise and needs more.

Practice for what?

Losing?

lol

[Dumb Nuck]

I bet a large Pizza Hut meatlovers pizza that Vancouver would win against a Chicago fan at work, the only thing I can't stand more that losing money is Chicago fans.

I'm a huge fan of Labate, but these last few games, he hasn't been noticable. He's been floating around a lot and really not doing anything. Hasn't even been physical. Biega's gonna showem how it's done

If he gets the opportunity to stick there then I agree. I have my doubts. Desjardins has been notoriously quick to demote him.
