One of the few guys who was actually scoring is finally out of the way.



I hope they keep Sutter in the lineup with his injury.

Thank you Carol!

Seeing Biega on the 4th line RW and Cramarossa as an 4th pairing D in practice makes my head hurt...

You rule as usual Carol!

Would like to see Goldy/Boucher With Bo/Sven.... would be nice to see what another natural RW does for the chemistry on that line ( Hansen was good with those 2).

The subtle/classy tank... liking JB's plan lately, I must admit.

Nothing should surprise you anymore

Thanks Carol!!

Sutter is so bad 5 vs 5 he certainly helps the tank Nucker

Has Granlund been playing with a bad wrist for a while or did this just happen recently ?

Still wondering why Crammarossa was a fan favorite in Anaheim. Even Megaman has outplayed him.

Been told they don't know how long the rehab is for Granlund and that this injury has been bothering him for several years. #Canucks



Interesting. I hope they can fix him up, and it's not a recurring injury. Makes the season he had more impressive.

I disagree, I think he's been okay on the 4th. Wasn't he just picked up to fill roster spots cause we traded Hansen/Burrows? I just figure he's a placeholder till the summer.

I don't see Megna back next year. I can see Cramaross in Utica.

He was more of a wrecking ball in Anaheim. Team mentality makes a big difference for some guys.

That is pretty impressive ...I was going to say most guys that have wrist surgery tend to have poor seasons following but if he has been dealing with it for a while then maybe he will come back even better

Are you saying the Canucks are soft?

Can't stand Megna. I still don't see exactly what he brings to the team. He doesn't really create scoring chances for himself or others, isn't physical, isn't really a good defensive player. He and Larsen better be gone. Unless they want Megna back as an AHL vet.
