Good protection move by Benning. Sucks we had to loose a 3rd round pick but its more important that this group makes the playoffs.

You posted this after two to three pages of people realizing that this didn't happen.

Hearing its a torn meniscus for Marky where he could be out 3-4 weeks

He should just find out what animal/person McDavid sacrificed to have his knee healed so fast.

We are one hit to Thatcher's head away from having a goaltending tandem of DiPietro and Domingue for the stretch run. Ok to hit the panic button yet?

[Coconuts 10,148]

Oof, an injury to arguably our most important player at the worst time. That's so Canucks. 

[captainhorvat 2,915]

All good...Demko is more than capable

[J-P 479]

Like that we acquired toffi but Vegas, oilers and flames loading up and Marky injured dampers things a bit for me. Still - as long as we make the playoffs the season’s a success in my book. 

[NUCKER67 8,790]

So, the MVP is out for the rest of the season. Not feeling overly optimistic with their chances now. VGK, EDM and CGY have made moves and are going for it.

Omg ...Marty out for 3-4 weeks. WTF

how did he go from a eye injury to a knee injury? weird!

Henry Rollins tells a story where he managed to get knocked out by kneeing himself in the face while moshing on stage.  When he came to, he jumped back up with a bloody nose looking around for whoever hit him.

This make a little more sense now, Petey and Dem

3-4 weeks with a meniscus tear is the best news you can hear. Means it is not too serious.

Awful news but he could still be back for the playoffs.  I've had this one:  there's different levels of severity.  Hopefully his is on the light side.

He is pretty bright but has meathead tendencies

If the marky injury’s true This should force the D to tighten things up or it could get ugly.

i like Demko and  think he’s the future here but markstroms having a vezina year and a very big reason we weren’t sellers today. 
If Demko can get this done and be the player we hope he can be might make resigning Markstrom less likely this summer. Very big opportunity for Demko to prove himself

Reminded me of when Miller was out and Eddie Lack had to step up his game to take us to the playoffs. Hopefully, Demko take this opportunity and run with it and take us to the promise land.

not to pick nits, but I'd argue the best news you could hear is that your mvp starting goalie doesn't have a knee injury at all. 

 

that said, this will be good for demko and good for the team to have to tighten things up defensively down the stretch. 

[Horvat is a Boss 3,200]

I don't understand why the Devils would simply help the Canucks out by giving them a more experienced 3rd string option but I'll take it. 

 

Maybe they felt bad for making us listen to Simmonds rumours for a week.
