My step mother was an angioplasty nurse specialist at the Jubilee, and another friend had a triple bypass there years ago, it just came as a shock.

That image shows me more of Green's deployment usage. Faceoff win % goes Horvat, Gagner, Sutter, Burmistrov above 50% with Sedin and Granlund below it.

Not that I am not worried about faceoffs in general as I dont think they have a profound impact on the game. Some timely wins are important, but not many are scored right off the draw anymore

The percentage of defensive zone face-offs is WAY worse.

He's been playing well in his role, but hopefully he can chip in once in awhile lol

Going out on a limb here.

Canucks go on a 6 week winless streak.
Top 10 pick still attainable

sign him need a center

Wow what an incredible game - Vaxjo 5 Farjestad 4

Farjestad tied it half way through the 3rd, then got a penalty shot during a 4 on 4 and missed with about 3 mins left, then Pettersson took control dished off to a streaking defender who flew in and fed his winger to bury it, 5-4 with a minute left.
Ep finished with 4 assists, 2 primary, one from his knees, one from his stomach...awesome

Can't believe how many are throwing in the towel. It is brutal that Horvat got injured, that is definitely a hard one for our depth to cover but Sutter should be back in a week. Last year these type of injuries had Megna and Chaput centering our top lines. This year a little more depth, as Chaput has been called up to be the healthy scratch and Megna is still in Utica. As Bob McKenzie said today: FWIW, as bad as “fracture” sounds, it can be preferable (less time) to some sprains or soft tissue damage. So there’s that.

Yup. I had low expectations for this season and like several players in top 10 of this draft. Although it sucks to lose your best player, it opens opportunity for others to step up.

I really hope the team or Bo himself doesn't rush back. No one wants this injury to worsen into something that lingers long-term.

I'd say he's your second best player behind my fellow American Brock Boeser

I'd say the top 3 are Horvat, Boeser and Tanev. The order is up for debate though.
