Carol Schram: Vancouver Canucks wrap up homestand without Derek Dorsett vs. Blackhawks Ryan Miller returns in a backup role as Jacob Markstrom gets his third-straight start and Jayson Megna subs in for Derek Dorsett as the Vancouver Canucks face the surging Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday night at Rogers Arena.

Thanks Carol. Taking on this powerhouse short players will be interesting to say the least.

Thank you as always Carol. At least the Canuck's aren't competing against NFL Football this weekend.

I give it two goals before Taj explodes on Twitter about Benning trading Forsling

Off to Victoria to slap some sense into Lefty.

Big deal, he wanted help now and took a chance. Fortunately that position is in pretty good shape now, thank's to JB. I'm even okay moving on from Kane, no problem find someone else.

Fecking press.

Just a point of interest. I was at that Blackhawks Daniel Sedin hat trick game last year and many people threw hats. Unfortunately all but one landed short of the glass or hit the netting.

I'll give it one goal before the Leafs/Flames trolls are in here telling us how great Forsling is...

Wow Chapoo on 2nd line we really are scraping.

Chi looked fast and hungry last night vs CAL…we are gonna need some strong perimeter hockey to get this game to OT...

Anyone see Tyler Johnsons stick fly into the crowd today?

Yeah we wouldn't have Stecher I bet if Forsling was still here. Besides he'd probably be buried with Subban. Stecher had to show exeptional abilities to even get the chance and even then was sent to Utica if it wasn't for injuries he'd still be there.

My son did that in a beer lineup. Surprisingly it didn't take long to get a beer after that

It was pretty clear it was a joke, as the post right above it had the exact same twitter post time. Don't know why people would believe the Canucks would call virtanen back up.

I'm coming to the conclusion that the canucks might need to consider a rebuild. There still might be a chance at a cup this season (because, you know, anything can happen) with a move or two but I think the prudent thing to do is start the rebuild now.

This ought to be good.

good one .... I think the terminology has seeped through... JB was using it in his latest interview...

This ought to be good.

Just a flashback to preseason topics. Those were good times.

I'm glad WD is using his goalies properly this season. We are going to need Miller fresh for a deep playoff push.

And when I say deep push, I mean balls deep.
