If you started Demko back to back, would you then play Holtby tomorrow? Or are you saying play Demko back to back, have a travel day, then play him again for 3 games in 4 nights? Cause then you aren’t getting peak Demko two games in a row.

This narrative is moronic. There is plenty of data to support the “goalies don’t play well on the second half of b2b games”. Starting Holtby was the right call. If you can’t start your $4+m FA signing what the actual fuck?

Ride the hot hand as long as you can. Would have just been nice to see another Demo start after the great game to see if he could repeat it. I get the sched is tough on goalies but Green needs to use a bit more common sense too.

Sure, if you can find someone to take him on.
That contract is structured so he gets almost 6 million next season.
Caphit stays at 4.3

Dude has a “right” not to wear a mask. Everyone else has a “right” not to let him into their business, home, bus etc. I find it hilarious that this is the hill some moron is willing to die on.

Think I read this morning Texas and another southern state said screw it today. All businesses open 100% no masks no precautions anymore.

Positives:

- high draft pick coming
- MAYBE a few extra assets from rentals
- Holtby is only 2 years, thank frick
- Pod will be here soon for a taste
- Lind at center in the AHL and doing well
- it's a short season
- Petey is almost back
- Demko looks like a #1
- OJ will be an NHL defenceman4 and maybe even a good one
- new coach and maybe GM next year will be exciting with even more youth

I stay out of these discussions mostly and do what I think is safe fe me and my wife, but you can see everywhere people are taking it less serious. I read the other day 6 deaths in BC from Covid. Those numbers are not enough to scare the public.

There's really only to that matter, Francesco Aquilini is still the owner and #2 Jim Benning is still the General Manager.

I mean, his intentions are good, but there's so much bureaucracy in Canada's socialist systems it's impossible to implement anything quickly. He's still a clown!!

I lost a dear friend in VAN last month who died from Covid-19, he was 54 with no underlying conditions. I have no time for the idiots.
