Provost Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Another guy confirmed to be symptomatic. I think that is Gaudette, Sutter, and Horvat now... the rest unknown from what I have seen.https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/bo-horvats-experience-reminder-human-side-canucks-covid-19-crisis/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whirledpeas Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 ^ I read that sportsnet.ca article above and colour me confused. On his birthday Bo posted an image on instagram of himself outside in the sun kneeling on the grass with Gunnar. That was 2 days ago. Is he now symptomatic? Begs a few questions on protocol, for me anyways. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The recent video of Gunnar didn't have Horvat in it, and it had his wife's voice laughing... so wasn't taken by Bo.

JM_ Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 so... Price and Gallagher both out with injuries, while we're on covid watch. The hockey gods have a twisted sense of humour. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what shape the guys will be once they return to ice. Even 5% off for these guys is a huge hit. They are elite athletes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hockey gods have a twisted sense of humour. The Vancouver /Montreal series is done regardless. Makes no difference. Also. Allen has been strong in the net for Montreal and they have plenty of depth to deal with Gallagher’s absence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksJay Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 So is there any word on when the Canucks play again? Can we wait for our players to get better or do we need to dress the comets? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Montreal just plays 500 hockey they’ll get to 64 points. Vancouver would need to earn 29 of a possible 38 points to tie them. They don’t have any games left against each other do that makes it more unlikely. Honestly , once you factor in the fact they have 5 games left against each other, Vancouver has a better shot at catching Edmonton than Montreal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’ll be sometime after everyone has gone through covid protocol and there’s no further danger of infection stemming from the current outbreak. I don’t think all the players being totally recovered plays into the league’s decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say its about a 50 / 50 chance, but there's only a 25% chance of that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed your point was Vancouver being idle means they won’t get to take advantage Also, are you under the impression that Gallagher plays C? He’s a RW. They also just added a veteran C to the team with Staal. Their top 4 C’s is actually really strong. Danault, Staal, Suzuki, Kotkaniemi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, but he's their most aggressive F and their C depth is not strong, so there's no one up the middle thats going to replace that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
