1. Rumour.

2. One particular guy.
3. No background information at all.

Perhaps Sbisa shtuppt'd demers wife (or daughter) (or dog)..
perhaps he got herpes here one time from a hooker..
perhaps Dorsett beat him up once
Perhaps Ripper haunts him..
Who the hell knows why he didn't want to come here. Could have been anything.
Perhaps he didn't want to be a 29 year old D-man on a re-building team.
The Cup is soooooo ours!!!!!!!

It IS a team with a lot more young talent. And it IS a city with far superior weather. These two things can't be debated

He Is 29, and we are rebuilding. This can not be debated.

GMs should start putting Chayka's number on call block because he's bending them all over.
Arizona has a good young team and a lot of good young prospects. Vancouver has neither. It's getting better but has a ways to go yet.

Arizona has great weather. Vancouver has terrible weather.

The management..... Well let's just say Chayka has been doing a bang up job.

I can't imagine Gudbranson being too thrilled about the fact Elmer tried to ditch him 30 games after he acquired him. I can't see him re signing here barring an overpayment
perhaps there is an opening for resident dickhead negative nellie over on whatever passes for coyotecorner in Arizona, as you say, the weather is better there :mrgreen:

Maybe its the lack of vitamin D... we could start a go fund me page. Meet Blob a professed Canucks fan who hates the team's owners, management, most if not all it's players and the city's weather. Help us relocate Blob to a more sunny clime and return him to a more sunny disposition. He needs your help and soon before another year of rebuilding from the ground up drives him past the point of no return.

And just like that there goes our #1C for a bit.
Sportsnet Murph:
Bo Horvat sustained an upper-body injury on Thursday and will be out for about a week.
Hank
Gagner
Sutter
Burmistrov

If canucks history has proven, don't rush it bo, be like crosby, don't come back till 100%.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

Unfortunately for Bo I don't think it is a concussion. It seems to be that dreaded shoulder injury : :mrgreen:

He didn't dress last night for precautionary reasons. A meaningless game followed by a long flight coupled with jet leg. To boot, they had to sit four players anyway so everyone could get a chance to play.

Their next game isn't until Thursday so no rush, that's almost a week. A minor stinger but then again if it's the same shoulder....
The only HW the Canucks need
