Are you going to the game?

I've been seeing what there is for tickets. Last time I looked was $200 per seat for the worst seat in the lower bowl and the 2nd and last row in the building for $100.

Normally I have my 1/4 season tickets but declined this year. I had no intention to live 2 hours closer.

Just checked again and only a bunch of single seats and then the last couple rows still.

Might be entertaining watching our new top line of Virtanen Chaput and Gaunce.
Not sure it is worth 200 bucks though.

#Canucks will try to beat Jets tonight with just 4 players in line-up with more than 4 goals this season: Boeser (15), Vanek (7), Daniel (6) & Eriksson (5)


This could get ugly as we head into the Christmas season!

Boucher with another couple goals last night.
Never been a fan of his ,But sounds like he is getting it together down there. Maybe worth a look soon.

Had a storm last night. Roads aren't the greatest into the city. Normally those seats at season ticket price are about $135 so paying $200 for them would annoy me to no end. If Horvat was playing I would have strongly considered it.

They dropped 8 spots or something after last years TDL. When you go on a long losing streak it's easy to drop.

Losing Horvat has definitely taken away plenty of the entertainment from this team.
Now I just hope Brock and Jake continue to develop.

And of course Gaunce

Getzlaf and Kesler coming back soon, I'd say they're gonna be ok going forward.

Unless he's picked up his foot speed that won't translate into the NHL IMO, but whuddoo I know.

Team has some good young wingers. Just need someone to dish them the puck. I'd like to see if Jake could have a more scoring role.

EDM may still get it together, failing that it looks to be ARI and us at the bottom unless there's some miraculous turnaround.

No one in the organization fits that description so they're just gonna have to learn to lose gracefully.

Van could of had Jujhar Khaira but instead 5 picks before that MG drafted Alexandre Mallet.

I watched a bit of their game against the Leafs last night, nothing else on TV, they looked good and were unlucky not to win. McDavid was an animal but just couldn't score.

Grind out some victories. Bo only affects one line. They won 14 games with him.

I think you missed it. What he's saying is it depends on which foot bone has the fracture for severity of the injury.
Fracture of a phalange, no big deal....metatarsal is more serious....but fracture your navicular and you'll have a tough recovery especially with running or skating sports. Fractured calcaneus (heel) is known to be a very finicky recovery as well.

Yes this is what I'd meant.

Why would you think that? He was a 4th line winger/PP specialist last season. Spoon feed easiest minutes in the NHL.

They only had one line, that was propping them up, that's why they've little chance until they get more depth and talent in the lineup. In about two years
