Very sad. RIP Mr. Wuest

Time for me to go get that ol' colon checked.

 

[Six Assets]

Very unfortunate. RIP.

Made such an awesome and useful site.

The greatest reality of life is death.

 

[Sens Rule]

What a great site he had.

Can't believe it was a one guy operation.

Sad to hear he has passed. He had an impact. What a great fan of this sport and a smart resourceful guy. He must have been sick a lot of the time he kept that site completely up to date.

All I know of him was his site. Knowing it was just his site makes me respect him all the more.

Matthew Wuest RIP.

God damnit, go eat a bag of dicks, cancer.


RIP, and best wishes and condolences to Matthew's friends & family. Lost a good one today.

R.I.P

I wish he had passed the site off to someone else to run and kept his baby alive, but it was his choice and I respect it. No resource comes close to matching it, which is incredibly annoying.

RIP Matthew Spent god knows how many hours on his site, truly seemed like a great guy.

Also he had reach, him and his site were so important to the hockey community. If you don`t believe that, he was one of the top 5 topics trending worldwide on twitter today.

**** cancer and **** it hard how thou art a heartless *****

Cancer sucks. It sucks. My mom beat it. She was just lucky. Lucky to catch it early enough.

Capgeek. Lets hope it returns. Returns with Matthew Wuest name on
It.

Very sad to hear. Capgeek was an extremely useful site, nothing else out there even sniffs the amount of information/tools you could find on his website.

 

[Stylizer1]

I used capgeek so much and really miss it. I'm surprised no one has come up with one that is just as good.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Cancer sucks. Seems like it's hitting damned near everyone these days.

CapGeek was a great site. Hopefully someone can use it as inspiration to make another cap-explaining site one day.

 

[StefanW]

**** cancer.

My heart goes out to him, his family, and his friends.

He made an amazing contribution to hockey. It didn't matter whether you are into analytics or think they suck, or what team you follow, every hockey fan could agree that Capgeek was the place to go to get 100% solid information. I cant think of another site for hockey information that has such universal appeal. He gave us a common language, so to speak, to use while discussing and debating our favourite sport, and it is was presented in a way that was user-friendly to the point of being mind boggling.

RIP & my condolences, not too many people these days who don't know of someone who is or was suffering with cancer. Terrible disease.
