The Canucks play Montreal next so we will get an indication of how they compare with Toronto and other teams Vancouver has recently played. It will only be an indication because so many variables can affect the way a team performs. If a team has a morning practice on the day of the game the coach can ruin the team with too much aerobics and bull work. On game day all they need is a brisk skate and some skills practice.
I see Toronto just had a fairly large trade. I haven't got the details. There should be more info this am.
dion phaneuf has gone to toronto, along with a couple of
players, for hagman, stajan and mayers.
Also, Gigere is going to toronto for toskala and blake.
I don't think we have to worry about vineault making mistake on morning practices, or skates
and such, they seem to have that routine down to a science, and players can
opt out sometimes for 'maintenance' reasons if they have a good reason.
interesting, well anyway, we've got rid of phaneuf, from our
division and
toronto is a good place for him, he's a pain in the butt.
I think cammalleri is injured for montreal, so that will
make a difference in their goal output, he has been playing
well this year, lots of goals, don't understand why calgary
let him go.
Don't understand why calgary let cammalleri go last season.
Montreal are a puzzle, not playing up to their potential, but
goalies can be tough, I was surprised when they hired Jaque Martin
for coach, not my choice, but maybe being french canadian, was a factor.
