Carol Schram: Derek Dorsett's career comes to an end as Vancouver Canucks take on Preds The Vancouver Canucks announced on Thursday that Derek Dorsett's playing days are over due to his ongoing neck issues as the team prepares to finish its six-game road trip against the Predators in Nashville.

Such sad news about DD15. Hope he heals up and stays healthy for the rest of his life. Tough to replace such a determined individual

Why is everyone still in the old thread?

Thanks carol!!

Nsh has a scary roster

Thanks Carol.

Go Canucks! Big ol' 4-2 L tonight, but ya know, go and try your best

I don't see him on this team next season to be honest. As usual, we are all sky high optimistic when it comes to a D rookie but moving forward their is little progress. College kids always look better than junior kids when it comes to D at the same rookie age bracket. We mistake the upside college kids have right away because of this. More likely we get Huttons and Stechers rather than Tanevs. If the are free agents, you celebrate more. Which creates more disappointment. That's what's happened to me over the years at least.

Stecher is in tough to make our team next season. If not then our D still needs lots of work. Time will tell i guess.

TY Carol,

Lets see if the room can sustain the loss of a leader on a consistent basis. Who steps up?

5-1 Nashville

Hard fought, defensive battle, 1-0 Smashville

Damn, I wasn't a fan of DD's contract but he played his heart out here.



Tough way to end a career. Wish him nothing but the best.

Vaxjo were up 3-1 going into the 3rd, took a 5 minute major, got scored on 4 times, lost 5-3 - brutal

Thanks so much Carol and yes it does suck about DD...he was a trooper out there salt of the earth kind of guy. Will be missed.

But it doesn't change our reality. Injuries are starting to be a factor and we just don't have scoring depth or proper goaltending to make that push. Our D contributes little to nothing from the back end in terms of points, just eating minutes.

We have had some past luck vs Rinne however...still looking at 6-2 Preds or close to it. They are just too deep all over that lineup. Hopefully Boeser gets back on the scoresheet.

Monitoring his energy levels throughout the season will be interesting as he adjusts to a much longer schedule.

Does Dorsett get the final year of his contract if he is technically retiring?

It's be nice to see him get that money.
