So help me out here... Do you have to be vaccinated to go to Roger's Arena to watch a game? Jim Benning lied as all the players aren't vaccinated? I am so confused.

Even though I don't think he's NHL ready, I hope he plays if he's called up. Give him another chance to win a spot over the rotating 6th men or at least continue to learn. Me, as well. Burroughs has some really good moments, Schenn has some really good moments, I hope Hunt has some good moments. I don't want to see all the pressure on JR, for the sake of his development. He needs AHL games and practice, not 10-12 minutes in the bigs. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have to be vaccinated to go to Roger's Arena to watch a game? Jim Benning lied as all the players aren't vaccinated? I am so confused. Benning never “lied.” Whenever he made statements as to the team being “fully vaccinated,” he was careful to not include Hamonic. When Hamonic was holding out, Benning would only say that everyone who had reported was vaccinated. Once Hamonic was demoted to Abbotsford (EDIT: more accurately, once Hamonic had cleared waivers), Benning said everyone on the Canucks NHL roster was vaccinated.

I doubt it Anyway Rathbone shouldn't have been sent down anyway, the way Schenn was playing defense. I'd rather see Rathbone making those mistakes than Schenn. 2 hours ago, #Canucks said: Schenn is pretty good in his role and he always stands up for his teammates. Schenn over Rathbone for me. I kind of disagree with both of these two extremes. They are two very different types, and ages of players. I agree with #Canucks that Schenn is pretty good in his role. I don't get all the criticism. He brings an element to the table we are sorely lacking in. Toughness from the back end.....or anywhere. And I have not seen Luke make a lot of mistakes either. He mostly makes good passes. Hits, And yes, stands up for teammates. His speed is not really a factor for the role he plays on the team. For his cap hit, he's a bargain. I think we need both. Not as top four obviously, but Rathbone could be eased into more ice time as he progressed. While Schenn is used more sparingly throughout the season. The two don't have to be linked, either / or. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its fair to say, if we want to be heading towards the play offs, so we don't have room for Rathbone to learn as he goes... Schenn has a skill set Rathbone doesn't, and he is better defensively... Unless Rathbone has improved defensively, I think he'll be sent back as soon as Harmonic/Schenn is ready to go again.

Sounds like a political move though. By definition absolutely correct but in spirit I doubt Hamonic was signed as AHL depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austy Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 It's a shame rathbone cant get into a game with harmonic, I have rathbone a bit better than Burroughs (on his offside) but pretty close for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
