Given that Dermott isn't at practice and Burroughs is playing on the left-side, seems like maybe Dermott is actually injured.

Please just go Hughes Schenn

i think it was reported his concussion issues are back

Is our medical staff doing something really f***in weird with players that have concussion issues?

Seems like they are concussed for life when other teams get their players back in days.

Update, apparently Dermott has had a set-back from a previous injury. Unclear which injury.

Yeah, Paterson mentioned it in a tweet. Didn't say it was a concussion, though. If he is having concussion symptoms then it's a little strange that he hasn't been put on IR.

This is going to be a bad, bad, baaaaad look for the organization if another player re-injures themself after being cleared to practice. Surely we can say that something weird is happening with our medical staff then.

Related to this.. there sure is quite a bit of smoke.

I read that most of the smoke has been "over blown" so you cant see the smoke anymore, but it was there.

Eerily similar to a special needs class.

What if the player injured himself in a completely different part of the body than the previous injury..?..Do we start pointing fingers at the medical staff again..?

 

[VanJack]

Welcome back to Vancouver Torts....seems like only yesterday that he took to the podium and announced that the Canucks core 'had gone stale' and needed major change. Too bad the owner didn't listen to him.

But believe it or not that was in the spring of 2013, coming up on a whole decade. And in that time the Canuck roster has gone a complete makeover. But one thing hasn't changed. Other than Hughes and Pettersson, 'the core' still isn't getting it done.

Unfortunately for 'the tank' this is a winnable for the Canucks tonight. Flyers really aren't very good, but you know that under Tortorella, they'll still play hard.

Depends- if a guy has a sore hip, but plays through it, by over compensating, and putting extra pressure on a different muscle group?
If that muscle group or ligament gives up, it could well be cause and effect.

 

[Vector]

Let's not get weird and hung up on hypotheticals. All we know now is Demko left the practice after 20 minutes.

I would love to see a class with that much funding for special needs students!

Hopefully we can see an entertaining loss like with last game. If not, I will settle for a terrible, demoralizing loss. Just Dont Win, Baby!

Pretty clear he was traded and told to get off the Canucks ice

Our fingers should still be pointing at them, so no need to start again.

Let's not get weird and hung up on hypotheticals. All we know now is Demko left the practice after 20 minutes.

I think its pretty clear he went to demand a trade after being injured again.

Should have had Studnicka room with Boeser for the rest of the road trip instead of sending him home

 

[MS]

Jeez ... Studnicka should honestly go to Abbotsford for a conditioning stint or something because there's absolutely no way he's going to play well coming out of a situation like that. He probably needed to add more bulk before getting sick.

crisis averted.
