GDT: Canucks @ Columbus - 2pm - Snet

[Island Nucklehead]

Let's not forget injuries to Salo, Bieksa, Ballard and Rome at various points of the season.

It really is something, and I'm not putting much stock in the worst division argument either.

The Canucks are 11-5-3 Vs the Central. They are 12-5-2 vs the Pacific, 11-5-2 vs the East and 16-2-2 vs the NW. 34-15-7 is still a .607 winning percentage vs. non-NW teams. Detroit currently sports a .586, Philly a .600. The Canucks would still be the best team in hockey if they played outside the NW.

There is almost no weakness on the team. The depth is being tested but it's been tested all season and hasn't broken yet (knock wood!!)!!!

[Puck]

It certainly didn't look good when he went down. He was motionless for a while, and the way his head snapped off the ice, yikes.

Scary is how bad it could be WITH a helmet. This is something I brought up earlier this year regarding head shots and what's going on inside the skull, not outside it.

Bring on the string of injury good-luck now, please.
