Who cares about clinching the conference 6 games out? we arent going to lose the rest of the season, we've pretty well got it locked up already. If Chicago lost, Dallas had a chance to make 8th place with Chicago and Calgary out of the show. Id fucking love to play Dallas in the first round!

all the guys throwing out regular season stats, yea they are great but hopefully you realize that once the playoffs comes those mean shit all. look at last year for example 81%pk throughout the year then 61% in the playoffs. some teams have had great power plays that have gone completely dry in the playoffs while those with a horrible power play in the regular season all of a sudden have the best. the game completely changes in the playoffs it goes from a free flowing regular season where a majority of borderline plays are called to a tight checking anything goes type of game.

^ lol. sure the playoffs are a different game, but you're completely wrong. Stats are a fairly accurate representation of a team's performance. 82 games of consistency is hard to maintain.

You're telling my #26 ranked Nashville (15.1%) may produce more powerplay goals than the #1 ranked Canucks (25.3%) in the playoffs?

CKNW email:
Doctors in New York City will attempt to restore the vision in Manny Malhotra's left eye tomorrow. The Vancouver Canucks forward is scheduled to undergo a surgical procedure less than two weeks after taking a puck to his left eye. The 30-year-old --who doesn't wear a visor-- was hurt on March 16th by a pass deflected off the stick of Colorado defenceman Erik Johnson. Malhotra underwent surgery immediately after suffering the injury and last week, the Canucks announced he was out for the season.

I don't know the anantomy of an eye ball but I figured it was either a glancing blow or the eye was squished inward by the puck, guess eye is fairly resilient and kyprios is saying the doctor performing the surgery is the same that reattached Brian burrard's retina in 2000

Wether he likes it or not? Dude you don't make any sense. Why would he not like having an entire year to heal his knee up, so he can come back, show the NHL who's boss and win a Stanley Cup?

And no disrespect, but do you want a round of applause for predicting Corey Perry would rip it up? Of course he was going to, he's an elite player! He should also be more than slightly mentioned when it comes to the Hart Trophy...The guy leads the league in goals right now, and also leads the league in third period and third period plus overtime goals.

Selanne is awesome...but Lidstrom is the best old dude in the NHL this year. Fucking 60 points from the blueline and he's 40...or 41, I forget.

Line that man up for another Norris.

He is, however, in danger of having his first minus season ever. He's a career +431 and the worst he's ever been is +7 in his sophomore year. He's been +40 FOUR times!

Without a doubt the best defenseman to play the game since...well, maybe ever? Bourque has all the records, Bobby Orr was superhuman and had he played 20 years, he would be by far the best ever...but Lidstrom deserves to be in the conversation with those two.

and yes. many predicted perry wouldnt perform like the way he is right now. I can see what Perry is doing, its a fine job he's done. Same can be said for Daniel, he leads the league in opening goals right now and PPG. Perry is tied for Danny for GWG as well. btw..Ilya Kovalchuk is leading the OTG catagory...

I said third period plus overtime, not overtime alone. And not to be a jerk, but have you actually watched Perry play this year? The reason he *is* doing better is because he's not taking so many dumb penalties. Yeah he's still got what, 100 + minutes, but he's got over 40 goals too.

Haha I've been a fan since '93, and with the vast majority of people my age outside of the OC, the movie did pique my interest. The fact they drafted Paul Kariya made me more into the team (local connection y'know?) until he turned out to be a douchebag. Having Selanne come over in '96 pretty much cemented it for me though, he's my favorite hockey player.

Line up Lidstrom for another Norris? Nope. Like I mentioned before, it should be going to Visnovsky (right now anyway). He's first in defenceman scoring, first in defenceman assists, and has the best +/- out of the top 5 scoring D-men. Doesn't hurt that his partner in crime leads the NHL in +/- too. As for him being the best ever? Nope again. Bobby Orr didn't need 20 years to prove he was the best ever. I won't list all his achievements, you can go look them up on wikipedia, but they are mind blowing. Best defenceman ever. Period.

It's sounding like Manny at the minimum had a ruptured globe and sever retinal detachment. I would expect Manny to be out possibly for a least a calendar year.

Bryan Berard went through a retina detachment as well and had to have 7 surgeries, with his vision never recovering beyond 20/600. I went through a detached retina last year and Manny is in for a long road to recovery, I had to have 2 surgeries (vitrectomy & placement of a scleral buckle on my eye), 1 laser procedure and 1 needle procedure injecting gas into my eye to save my vision. A year later and my vision in my left eye is only at about probably 70%, unable to make out letters to my right if I close my good eye and still attempting to recover, at least now I can make out shapes. After the surgeries I was unable to go to the gym or perform any athletic activities for about 6 weeks, as when you are exerting yourself, the pressure in your eye increases. Some of the more complicated cases require you to be inactive for 2-3months. The gas bubble in my eye also required me to keep face down and not experience any altitude changes.

I would expect Manny not to be able to workout probably till about July or so possibly and even by training camp his vision will still be compromised, making it difficult to play the game at a high speed. Berard had to take a full calendar year off from working out and a full season off from the NHL, it would appear Manny's injuries are more severe. If anyone can come back from this, its Manny, but at this point, his NHL career is of secondary concern, best of luck to him today.

My retina detachment was the result of a macular hole that just developed in my eye. Wasn't a result of direct trauma to the eye like in Manny's case, which is more severe. Another point to keep in mind when thinking when or if Manny can come back is that in a large majority of the time, one surgery to repair the detachment can result in future detachments, tears, early on set cataracts and other issues, so I'd suspect more surgeries for Manny after today.

I personally hate comparing old era stats vs modern day stats.
No one's going to get those amazing stats anymore with the refinement (and equipment size?)
of goalie techniques, and even defensive techniques.

Some can argue about better sticks, and stuff,
but I think the defensive side of the game has changed much more than the offensive side.

I'm not going to argue about Bobby Orr specifically though.
This is just a general statement I'm making about anytime someone compares old stats to modern stats.
Considering the game has changed so much, sometimes it's not as simple as just looking at stats and achievements.

This is why I don't get what at the minimum the league won't make CSA approved visors mandatory.

Visors nowadays have zero vision impairment or distortion.



if not, what would be the merits if the club would make it a team mandate instead. I imagine GM's would love to take any measures to protect their assets; especially considering IMO it really isn't at the cost of performance of 'said players.

Impairment aside, don't all the leagues below the NHL level have rules that make visors mandatory? If you've been playing with a visor your whole life, why would you remove it once you make the NHL?

Side note - they should have suspended Bertuzzi 2-3 games for his high hit on Johnson. Intent or no, there was contact to the head. Yet another example of the NHL admin staff dropping the ball... *sigh*

This is why I don't get what at the minimum the league won't make CSA approved visors mandatory.

Visors nowadays have zero vision impairment or distortion.

Looking at that video of Manny's injury, it doesn't look like a basic visor would have helped - the way the puck came up, it could have just gone right up under the visor.

Full face cage FTW?

If Manny comes back at all, my guess is he would opt for the Dany Heatley/Colin White super visor

White switched to the giant visor in 2007 after he took a puck to his right eye in practice, suffering blurred vision. It was a wakeup call for him almost losing vision in an eye.

I dunno man, there's not a lot of space between a visor and your eye area. The puck would have to come STRAIGHT up, and parallel to the visor to get in that area. Even then, it would be a one in a million chance to score a direct hit on the eyeball (as opposed to your eyebrows) or having the visor absorb some of the impact.

it still would have probably decreased the speed of the puck.. or redirected it elsewhere.. all in all, a visor would have probably caused a different end result, although it coudl have been worse.. ie shatter he visor and have the shards rip him eye out.

My half visor has saved me from several high sticks and a couple pucks for sure. In fact, I should replace it soon, pretty scratched up. My last one was so bad the guy at the hockey shop asked me if I wanted to keep it as a memento lol. Guess that's what I get for going to the dirty areas.

Pretty sure a visor would have helped in some way of deflecting the puck instead of
a direct puck-to-eyeball hit. If getting hit in the eye directly is one in a million chance...
a puck going straight up, parallel with your face and visor and hitting the eye, should be one in a billion.

I believe all lower leagues make visors mandatory.
I think only veterans who obviously didn't grow up playing with visors are still the only
ones around NHL who refuse to wear visors.

I don't think anyone that grows up playing with visors (which should/are already enforced in the lower leagues)
would be dumb enough to switch to playing without one once at NHL level.

After further consultation with specialists and team doctors, today Vancouver Canucks forward Manny Malhotra underwent a second successful eye procedure. Manny Malhotra’s health continues to be the primary concern of the hockey club. Progress updates will be made available at the appropriate time. No further comment is planned at this time.

There are rec leagues in which YOU MUST wear a visor becuause their insurance providers will not cover you if you don't. I know Ice604, you have to wear one. I THINK duffers in north van, you do. Coast and ASHL, you are correct, and you don't.

The oakleys and bauer ones are banned because they are not csa approved, I don't think it has anything to do with the height of them. They also aren't safe for direct impact, if I am not mistaken. Those Paul kariya style bauer visors are csa approved and have impact standards.

Either way, I agree it is ironic. It is better to wear one than not to have one at all.. or maybe they failed miserably under impact, where they shattered... They are mainly meant for performance (visual clarity)

In the last couple of years, yes all the draft picks have worn visors, and why woulnd't you. As mentioned, you grow up wearing a full cage, then a visor for your whole hockey life.. then you go to the nhl, why not stick witha visor... maybe it is their way of thinking "I am at the top level... since I have reduced protection to my face at every major level, I will take the next step as a man and wear no visor!!! grr!!!"

Its been mentioned a couple of times, but I don't see the big deal just grandfathering Visors in? Everyone thats playing now are exempt and anyone entering now must wear one. I wonder why NHLPA would be so against this. It would only affect future players who aren't even in the NHLPA yet.

Although you have to admit, serious injuries are pretty rare. So thats probably why its not a real pressing issue. Until it happens to a superstar like Ovie or Sid.

I don't think there should even be a debate for the merits of a visor vs. no facial protection at all.

I wanted to raise the discussion that since it's really unlikely that the NHL will make it a leaguewide mandate like they did with the helmet mandate before, why don't GM's take it upon themselves to mandate it on their team.

Especially with respect to gear that is non-performance inhibiting like visors or kevlar socks that players wear to prevent lacerations from skates (a la Bieksa). Its not going to entirely eliminate injuries but considering teams are struggling to keep their top roster healthy for an 82 game span heading into the playoffs, any injury-limiting measures at no cost to performance just seems like a no brainer to me. (from a GM standpoint)

unless there's a factor I've failed to consider.

I wear a half shield for Ice604 and ASHL.
For the past few months, I have been debating about switching to a full cage since I have been hit in the face with high sticks. This past weekend, in a pickup game, I was cut from a high dump in that require 4 stickes and a 4 hour hospital wait.

I know what my next hockey purchase will be.

Yes, the male urge to act tough has something to do with it.

If wearing a visor is anything like wearing a pair of glasses, I can imagine why some players wouldn't want to wear one. I hate wearing glasses, so I wear contact lenses as much as I possibly can.

Some players don't wear it because it obstructs their vision.

I remember I think it was Salo, a couple seasons ago he had a facial injury and wore a visor afterwards. But said it obstructed his view and timing for his slapper so he took it off again.

IMO, they should all wear one. Better to be safe then sorry. Especially if you are playing on a defensive role, shots can be deflected anywhere...

It's easy to say this after a win against them BUT..

before tonight i feared facing Nashville, but outside of Rinne they have pretty much nothing, the whole game tonight the preds held on by the skin of their teeth and the Canucks are in a totally different class, there's no way the preds could take a 7 game series

03-29-2011, 06:36 PM
Since we scored on the empty net, does that count as a GAA for Nashville's goalie?

from a buddys facebook :troll:

Canucks fans do know that you have to win the western conference playoffs to be "western conference champs". Presidents Trophy and #1 seed doesn't mean you will be western champs. When your western champs you get the trophy no one wants to touch, then maybe you get the "cup"

Philly with 102 points and 6 games left can't do better than 114 points.

Canucks have 111 points and 5 games left - two wins would give us 115 points and the President's Trophy.

Unfortunately three points doesn't guarantee it, as that would leave us at 114 points and 48 ROW, while Philly would have 114 points and the tiebreaker at 49 ROW, assuming they were to win all six in regulation or OT.

As he’s done so many times before, Burrows turned archer after scoring releasing an arrow to the heavens in tribute to fallen Canucks defenceman Luc Bourdon.

It’s been a while since Burrows used the celebration, which is reserved for special goals, but then again it’s been a while since a goal meant so much to the Canucks.
