Brady Tkachuk, captain of the Ottawa Senators wearing a Flames shirt getting bombed going to watch his brother play in a playoff hockey game on the road is great on so many levels.
Believe the changes in Vancouver will include Jim Benning and John Weisbrod out as GM and AGM. Chris Gear likely steps into an interim role. Travis Green and Nolan Baumgartner out on the coaching side. Bruce Boudreau and Scott Walker in on coaching staff.
No one would have guessed this Canucks team would have 50 wins, win the division, have a 40-goal scorer and a 103 point man, win a round and be one win away from the conference final. I'd say this season as a whole was a pretty good one.
RIP Ryp. Nine-years ago today. Far, far too young. It’s ok to ask for help, and it’s ok to not be ok. Let’s keep the conversations going each and every day and maybe one day we’ll begin to scratch the surface on Ending the Stigma surrounding mental health.
An Indo-Canadian man who grew up in Surrey is set to make his NHL debut for his hometown team. This is one a lot of people especially Arshdeep and his family will remember forever.
Lots of talk about Elias Lindholm in the regular season when the Canucks made the trade from a lot of people. Two goals this series including the overtime winner. Proving to be exactly the guy they traded for.
Sounds like the Toronto Maple Leafs have some interest in Tyler Myers from the Canucks. We’ll see where it goes but the two sides have talked this week.

Chatted briefly with a couple people who are dealing with the current Covid situation with the

- it’s tough, some of these guys can’t get out of bed. “Absolute shock to the body.”
Burrows on people he would love to be here today - “I’d love for Luc and Ryp to be here. We were all very close. I’m sure they’re going to be looking down from above.”

We want players to show personality and speak their mind when in front of the camera. Nikita Zadorov does that in every aspect of his game on and off the ice. Seven points in nine playoff games for VAN. He’s walking the walk too.
Talked to a couple guys in
#Canucks
room about fallout from a week ago. Forget about Matheson getting death threats. I was shown DM’s from VAN players receiving death threats from their own fans. Have fun, Twitter, but don’t be an idiot.
Brock Boeser isn’t on the trip with the Canucks in Winnipeg to finish the regular season. A couple extra days off before the playoffs begin will help. He’s been dealing with something as most players are during this time. Will finish the regular season with 40G 33A and 81GP.
The Canucks are going to search long and hard for a new general manager or President of Hockey Ops if they decide to the that route. They need a new culture from the top down. And today is the start of it.
Doesn’t sound like it’s a major injury for DeSmith. Likely back for game five. Team is confident in Silovs and wants to be able to let DeSmith get back to full health for rest of this series. Team decision to not play him this afternoon. He has played through worse.

People crapped all over the trade when the
#Canucks
acquired JT Miller, but they knew what they were getting not only on the ice but what might be more important was his leadership. Guys look up to him. Proved yet again by his comments today.
It’s May in Vancouver. Pretty nice spring day outside. The Canucks are a few days away from hosting games one and two of the second round. Enjoy it Vancouver and always remember, mix in a water.
NEW - According to those who have been briefed on the plan, sounds like BC Government will announce on Monday those eligible who are unvaccinated will not be able to access non-essential businesses. Could include movies and restaurants. No details on when it will start.

Boeser said Pettersson missed a pass to him during morning skate said he told him he better figure it out before he gets back into the lineup. 😂

June 16th FIFA will be making its announcement of host cities for the 2026 World Cup. Sounds like the two Canadian cities will be Vancouver and Toronto. Edmonton is out.
Horvat says Hamonic came in and talked to the team and explained his process and what he was going through. Noted it wasn’t easy for Hamonic to do that but happy he did and they’re excited to have him back in the lineup.

Silovs is likely going to get to 50 shots against tonight. He's 23-years old in just his sixth playoff game. Needs to be talked about way more for keeping his team in the last two games.
