Carol Schram: Brock Boeser injured while Brendan Leipsic stars as Canucks beat Islanders Brock Boeser will be sidelined for 4-6 weeks after a nasty late-game injury in a game where Brendan Leipsic led the way with two goals and an assist as the Vancouver Canucks defeated the New York Islanders 4-3 in overtime.

Thanks Carol.
Hoping Leipsic and Motte make Sven and Granlund expendable.

Pretty sure he wants to play one of the last few games to reach the 30 goal plateau.

Thanks Carol.

Picks would be great but they probably "won't be available to us"

VHG wont let me quote.
We would need to add another player to those 2, in order to get a pick.
May i suggest Gagner.

Leipsic's defensive game can't hold a candle to either player.

He's been a fun add because he's like you gave the keys of a Ferrari to a 16yr old who sorta knows how to drive. Its kinda like watching junior hockey in a pro setting.

If Gagner has trade value, he’s the first one I move out of those 3.

Don’t think he’s moveable for a pick until the 2020 TDL

I thought it was a classless comment by Imac last night . I don't believe there was curse of the hockey Gods that reversed his mojo and put a spell on Brock but this is what he wished would happen to Barzal . A nothing serious accident but something that would sideline him. What a classless comment

They should have just let Friedman do the talking

"either player" doesn't have the grit or drive.

I was meaning all 3 may need to b lumped together, in order to get a pick.

I'm waiting on Leipsic for like another 60-70 games to see if he's legit or just another tweener with a hot start.

I don’t think it works that way. When’s the last time 3 bottom 6 forwards were packaged together for a draft pick?

It would be a fun 3 rd line of JV Lipstick and Gaudette

Exactly why even bring Imac there

This

Same with Motte. Chicago fans said he’d come into camp and bust his ass. Play well for the first 5-6 games of the season and then become useless.

If even 1 of these guys ends up becoming a solid top 9 forward, that’s a win.

I like Lepisic so far though, Sven was once criticized for being a lazy defensive player so I’m sure Leipsic can improve as well, as long as he’s willing.

In case he needed to spurt out one of his memorized lines from Linden and Benning about how they rock

Sportsnet is the new 1040. IMac is there to put out the fires.


Too bad he created a massive one

With Lips it would help moving him off the top line next year and find a true top line guy

Hes an idiot. Just trying to stay relevant

Can we add Gaunce to make it more fair, they can have 4 bottom 6 for a pick.

After seeing the history of UFA signings on July first Canucks and all GMs should tread lightly. Rule of thumb no deals over 3 years. Home grow your own prospects.

Cap space is a must . There is no reason for this team to spend to the cap

Team speed is fun to watch but you do need a certain amount of team toughness also.

Stop playing players out of position no more threes dressed up as a nine.

There is a lot of youth playing at top end in the league now Canucks should not be afraid to bring some of theirs in. We really do have enough mentors .
