Pre-Game Talk: Vancouver Canucks at New York Rangers - February 19, 2015

[The Gloaming]

Agreed.

You guys are doing Arrested Development playoff avatars? Awesome.

Are any of your injured defensemen going to be back?

 

[Nash Money]

Not sure if AV said anything about it today other than Cam starting tomorrow, but with a back to back and having to travel to Buffalo due to the rescheduling, any chance we actually see Skapski in net vs. the Sabres? Figure it's then or never, since the next back to back is March 10/11 and hopefully Hank is back by then.

None of Edler, Bieksa or Corrado made the trip. Twitter did report that Corrado could join the team half way through our road trip.

What you can probably expect:

Sedins - Burrows
Higgins - Vey - Vrbata
Dorsett - Matthias - Kassian
Kenins - Horvat - Hansen
MacMillan

Hamhuis - Sbisa/Tanev
Stanton - Sbisa/Tanev
Biega - Clendenning

Miller

IR: Bonino, Richardson, Bieksa, Edler, Corrado

Edit: we're probably scratching Kassian just to annoy the Internet, it'd not be Vancouver if there ain't something to complain about.

 

[Ex Officer Friendly]

I want to move to Vancouver.

This I'll come with you

Not sure how many members here on HFNYR know but this lovely poster was the one who helped us out with our Pokemon playoff avatars last year

Vancouver is a coastal seaport city in British Columbia, Canada.

Discuss.

Disagreed.

Close enough.

I just lived in Portland, OR for six months (I'm back east now) and I concur. The PNW is the best part of North America in my opinion. Now if only the regional economy was booming and my family lived there as well...

 

[Killem Dafoe]

This I'll come with you

Deal.

Close enough.

Walt, let's choose option A.

A couple of my buddies recently moved up to Seattle to join the Navy. Never hear the end of how amazing it is up there.

 

[Kakko]

Walt, let's choose option A.

So... Florida?

Would love to see Skapski in vs. the Sabres. Wanna see how the kid looks.

 

[Leetch66]

Close enough.

LMAO....I live even further East than Moncton....we have 15ft snowbanks on the roads these days after the huge storm that went through here on Sunday/Monday . School has been closed since Monday...and now none for Thursday as most of the rural areas are still digging out . We are OK....as long as the power stays on so I can watch my Rangers !!!!

High real estate prices I believe.

We should record it and make it a sitcom just like the odd couple

Never heard that before you are way off base with that comment

most people say it's actually pretty ugly, but the eye is easily distracted by the Rockies to the East and the Pacific Coast sunsets to the West

The Rocky Mountains are a seven hour drive from Vancouver. The mountains directly north of Vancouver are called the Coastal Mountains. And the only thing ugly about Vancouver is the drug use among the addicts on the downtown eastside. Stay away from the area around Main and Hastings.

Guise.

Do it.

If there's any game to start Skapski, it's against the Sabres.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Guise.

Do it.

I'm travelling to Seattle for a month long holiday in October. We will meet up for drinks

And the huge mountain you can see in the distance from Vancouver is Mt Baker, which is part of the Cascade Range. Rockies are a different thing.

Skapski is the cousin of my old hairstylist. He's a good kid and a really good goalie. Welcome to Canadian 6 degrees of separation.

(You guys can tell me to GTFO if I'm being annoying lol)

It hasnt significantly snowed here since Feb 2012.

Yeah, West coast is a lot more mild than the East. And more beautiful.

Which is why I too, want to move there.
