Carol Schram: Tanner Pearson sidelined after hand surgery as Canucks prep for the Leafs The Vancouver Canucks will be without forward Tanner Pearson for the next 4-6 weeks as their road trip continues against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday, as part of Hockey Hall of Fame weekend, and against the Bruins in Boston on Sunday.

Thanks Carol!

Like you, I'm really wondering what is going on with Demko as I am very surprised by how ordinary (or worse) he has been so far this year.

Also, surprising to see Auston off to such a slow start after his torrid pace last year! hope that continues thru Saturday!

Thx Carol! No need for Demko excuses. He is healthy he just sucks right now. Time for Demko to earn his starts

Here's an interesting piece that really breaks down how the Canucks' defensive woes start with the forwards.

Intuitively, I've sensed that they're not "playing as a team" defensively. There are a bunch of clips here that show how that shows on the ice.

There are 18 teams with as many or more back to back games as the Canucks.

I did my own research.

Looks like changes atop Canucks forward lines for Friday practice in Toronto:

Mikheyev-Miller-Boeser
Kuzmenko-Pettersson-Hoglander
Podkolzin-Horvat-Garland
Joshua-Aman-Studnicka

- VanHockeyGuy



It’s amazing that Horvat is producing like he is with line-mates like that.

That’s because he’s actually not producing the majority of his points with linemates like that. Nine of his sixteen points have come on special teams playing with much better offensive players.

Thanks Carol, big games this weekend, national media spotlight. If the boys don’t bring an A effort it’s going to be ugly.

Good point Carol. I guess all the forward changes didn’t help the team either 🤷🏼

Every year they make huge changes with role players and it takes time for everyone to adapt to the poopty culture before they mostly get replaced, rinse and repeat.

9p vs 7p... not like there is a big gap. Still remarkable he has any 5v5 points with the garbage he always has to play with.

Also, not like he's on a stacked line for the PK...and actually down a man so no advantage. That's 2 points. So in reality his PP points are the same as his 5v5 points....

Naturally I had to unspin your post.
