Ugh....can't we just forfeit, or better yet postpone it until after the Olympic break?

So banged up...and Higgins/Richardson for Henrik was a lateral move at best, you could tell they were beat up too.

Tanev, Bieksa, Hamhuis, Alberts, Weber, Henrik, Santorelli, Higgins and Richardson...not to mention Burrows and Edler for prolonged tracts of time. I say we Robocop the next injury.

 

[BobbyJazzLegs]

Going to the game! So pumped but I hope I don't get chirped too much

Hope the boys can get up for this one.

Win this game have a good end to horrible 2014

 

[Grumbler]

How long has it been since we lost to the leafs? which means we will lose this game.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Win it so the Leafs' ten year winless record against us continues. Moral victory!

10 or 11 years I think. I believe we did lose a few years ago, but maybe that was in OT? I don't remember. I think there was some sort of record snapped a few years ago to do with the Leafs and Canucks.

Have been dreading this game... mind is not ready to get blown out by the Leafs.

So bieska/weber practicing not very specific

I think Bieksa's not even on the trip, so they didn't mention him.

 

[BobbyJazzLegs]

and Weber went home, right?

 

[y2kcanucks]

Win this game have a good end to horrible 2014

You know we're only in February right? Long time before New Year's Eve.

 

[canuck4life16]

and Weber went home, right?

Bieska and weber not part of trip....with hamhuis back no more Sauve

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Hamhuis! Save us!

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Hope we roll with

Hamhuis - Garrison
Edler - Diaz

Garrison needs a babysitter right now and this worked in the past. Just no more Edler/Garrison.

I'm starting to think that having 3 different d-men making north of $4M that need babysitters might not be the best model for success.

Maybe he knows something we don't....
