Yeah I vaguely recall him hinting about how Perry should've gotten a suspension for breaking his finger with a slash a few years ago.

NHL players pushing for suspensions in the press, never thought I'd see the day.

Here's the Virtanen/Perreault incident:

I don't think either was out to make a hit there, I think they were on a collision course and Jake merely braced for impact.

Perreault got it in the noggin cuz he's 5'2".

Refs could've given Jake 2 minutes there... I guess?

As an aside, I don't recall Mr Perreault asking for himself to be suspended for this knee-on-knee:

Image

Little fucker put Hansen out for 6 weeks! :evil:

The worst part is it was revenge for Hansen absolutely ROCKING a guy with a clean hit in that game.

(can't remember who Hansen hit, but it wasn't Perreault)

The jets were running Jannik all night after that hit, but couldn't catch him... cleanly. :scowl:

FUCK YOU MATHIEU PERREAULT

Doesn't much matter, but I agree with those out there who are saying Jake's elbow was in Perreault's chest.

Still, shoulder contact to the head isn't desirable...

"I’ve got to take matters into my own hands next time this happens, and I get to swing my stick across his forehead."

“So the next guy that does that to me is going to get my fucking stick. And I better not get suspended for it.”


Mathieu Perreault ain't exactly a genius lol...

I watched this many times and I thought the first point of contact was the collarbone area. The slight follow through made it look worse.

Perreault sold that big time.

Someone should re-tweet the knee-capitation on Hansen.

Markstrom agent Pat Morris, : Jacob is focusing on the season only. His next contract is furthest from his mind, team & playoff goals are at forefront. His priority certainly is to stay in Van for the rest of his career if possible. We will get to the contract when it ’s time.

#Canucks prospect Tyler Madden is one of 75+ nominees for the 2020 Hobey Baker Award. Madden has 30 points (16-14-30) in 21 games this season with Northeastern University, which is good enough to be tied for third in NCAA scoring.

Unfortunately, the Hitmen lost Egor Damula to injury earlier this month, but for Canucks prospect Jett Woo, that means a bigger role. So far, so good for the 2018 2nd round pick as he has points in nine of his last 11 games, which included a seven-game point streak.

Jake Virtanen has more goals than Johnny Gaudreau, Giroux, Radulov, Marner, Hall, Benn, Toews and Keller.

Now we see why Joe Sakic wanted JV + for crappy Barrie.

So, we were chatting at the water cooler the other day..

We know we are losing a good player to Seattle. This is a fact. It's also a sign of improvement over the last few years.

We know we have an issue in net with the issue being (potentially) too many good goalies we can't protect. Our problem is we are not sure if we have that issue or not. (Demko doesn't have enough games to truely get a read on him). But we will know in about 18 months.

So how about this?

We sign Marky to the 4x5 contract (or whatever he gets), play them both 60/40 next year (everybody knows what the Canucks have, plus we know what we have in Mikey Dipetro as far a season his development goes).

Then we look Seattle square in the eye, ask them which goalie they want, (Vegas has already laid the blueprint of expansion teams building from the net out, and we should have a couple of the top goalies available) and tell them that for a 3rd round pick (or whatever asset we choose) we will protect the other guy so they can have him - the guy they want. If they say no to that, we simply trade whichever goalie we can to someone else who is looking for an upgrade, and we start the rivalry having earned it.

We could actually get something back in the expansion draft. 😁
