Wow, tough loss! I hope Baertschi draws in tonight, it would be exciting to see him play against the team that gave up on him!

I wonder if Burrs is still going to play in this series (not tonight). Probably possible to play with broken rib, but he won't last too many shifts. Also having this disclosed to the public would be a concern if he does play - probably too much disclosure for Willie's liking

fuck that...would you want a guy with broken ribs to play?
he'll be more of a hindrance than a benefit
this ain't 94.

i think Hank tried to play with broken ribs before too...it doesn't end well for the player or the team.
sucks that he's gone but that just means somebody has to step up.
If Canucks can't manage without him then they deserve to lose anyway.

how the hell did he break his rib? That's kinda messed up at practice

Apparently by a puck or something? Definitely messed up

it had to of been cracked all ready, sounds like a freak accident to me but at least not all that bad I guess

Dude seriously? If it means this much to you I rescind my comment.

It's just his general answers to all the hockey related questions, lots of "duh" pauses and not understanding the questions or giving answers in the direction the interviewer is pretty obviously trying to go. If you think he's the sharpest knife in the drawer then by all means have at 'er

Baertschi recalled but Vey in the lineup tonight :pokerface:

What the fuck?? I don't understand Willie's lineup change. :fulloffuck:

Oi Vey!! Baertschi gives you offense. What does Vey do??? Win a faceoff?
Sure, when pigs fly.

jesus fuck, really? VEY?

wow...seriously.
we're just giving the series to Calgary like this?!

Fucking McMillan is a better fit than Vey. Hell, Darren Archibald is a better option than Vey.
Ryan Miller playing as a forward is a better option than Vey.

WD's quickly proving that he's no playoff coach.

Wow, I'm surprised they disclosed the exact nature of Burrows' injury, especially at this time of year. The media basically painted a bullseye on his ribs should he come back at any point during this year's playoffs.

Fuckin cunt muscle.

They might be saying that because he might be out for a long period of time?

Yeah totally agree

Friendly fire fells Burrows. Practice shot. Displaced rib. #Canucks

You gotta be lucky to win the Cup... something the Canucks are not, unfortunately.

Calm down. Just trying to get an idea of how you came to that conclusion. I would think that if you conclude someone is stupid without even knowing them personally, there has got to be a good reason.

Well FML.....
Is Sven not in cuz he can't make it in time?

Or cuz Willie thinks he just didn't get the practice run by not being here with team..

Or is he already here and Willie is being Willie?

He'll be fine.

I'm one of the few people who actually likes Vey / thinks he will turn out to be decent one day if he adds some size.................. but this is a dumb move if he's coming into this type of series.

I mean, Baertschi doesn't have size either... but still..............

i will understand WDs hard on for Vey...

Vey to WD is like Rome to AV.

WD's banking on Vey finding his inner playoff beast
He did put up 25 pts in 15 playoff games for the tigers in 2011



but srs, coming back to Van 3-1 sucks. The Flames have all the momentum now and we lost a game changer in Burrows.
I swear to god if Sedins play less than 16 mins tonight i'm gonna burst a blood vessel in my eye

I hope the Sedins play 19:59 mins each so ppl can lose their minds again.:troll:
