Every time I bet on the canucks to win they seem to win...now do I bet on them again or not

Wonder if Demko is playing tomorrow and Friday?

Domingue almost certainly will get Friday's game against Colorado.

Domingue almost certainly will get Friday's game against Colorado.

Colorado team without MacKinnon, Rantanen and Kadri, shouldn’t be much of an issue.

Tanev will be sorely missed. If he can't play, I guess Benn comes in. Wonder who plays with Hughes...Edler?

Want to give a shoutout to Demko, who was terrific last game. I'm sure there's one goal he'd like back, but he really came through in o/t and the shootout. Hope he keeps on rolling.

Demko seems to be getting better as he gets more games in..Touch wood.

Tanev week to week
He’s so close to his career high in gp per season

 

[Grumbler]

This team has no defense atm. Even though we are relatively healthy this year compared to others, the few injuries we have includes our critical players.

 

[ziploc]

Tanev out is a huge loss. We are already very poor defensively, and just paper thin for depth. I guess Benn comes in?

 

[Nazzlind]

Hughes - Myers
Edler - Stetcher
Fantenberg - Benn

im guessing

 

[polarbearcub]

No tanev for the rest of the regular season... yikes

 

[Fire Benning]

Tanev out might be season-costing for the team given how awful their defense has been as is. Positive is they might be able to survive the next two games, Arizona can't score at all and Colorado has a ton of their regular forwards out, Winnipeg and Tampa though..yikes

We lost to CBJ twice

 

[Ginger Papa]

Tanev out.

​

OK, wait a minute:

​

OK, HF CANUCKS coping strategies in place

​

All aboard:

​

Time to go play catch & release in Arizona

Animal was fine and was released after being checked over.
Go Go​

Wonder if Tanev’s injury history scares a lot of teams away this off-season. Was looking like he was gonna play his first full season healthy.

All he needs is some better shinpads and gloves, man.

Womp womp

Thomas Drance advocating that Hughes gets paired with Benn.....since Hughes is basically a 'one man breakout machine' , it puts a lot less pressure on his defensive partner, whoever that is. An interesting take.

 

[M2Beezy]

Will this be the LAST Canucks home game this season?

I still find it weird that Benn put up pretty good defensive numbers in Montreal. This year has been the complete opposite has he slowed down this year ? Or is this on Green and Baumgartner on their defensive structure or lack thereof.

 

[Peter Griffin]

Considering it’s in Arizona, I’ll say no.

Yes.

Jimbo needs his rookies to compensate for his trash free agent signings.

It's like winning first place and then shooting yourself in the dick.

And it happens over and over again.

So weird.
