That is certainly A Trade. An odd trade, unless the Canucks are getting rid of some defensemen currently on the roster.



(please get rid of Tyler Myers)

Yeah but he’s a hockey player, teams controlling medical treatment generally seems like a good thing (Eichel case maybe the exception). But in that case the team was able to stop the player getting the treatment, we’re the Canucks just ok with him doing it?

How would you propose to stop him? Even if Sutter is under contract, the Canucks can't legally stop him from exploring any possible treatment when no recognized treatment pathway for COVID exists. It's basically "treat the symptoms and hope it doesn't gently caress up your life."

The issue with Eichel was there was a viable, safe, and recognized treatment for his neck issues - spinal fusion. Eichel just didn't want to deal with the extended recovery time.

What? There are vaccines. Epidemiologically, that is the treatment pathway. When x amount of the population is inoculated it lowers the mortality rate. If he chose ivermectin over inoculation he puts the general population and the team at risk because remaining unvaccinated increases the likelihood of sickness and transmission

assuming that he was unvaccinated as ivermectin and stupidity are kissing cousins

Sutter was vaccinated, but was only eligible to receive a vaccine well after he got COVID. Nearly the entire team got COVID in late March 2021, before vaccines were available for their age group.


Hamonic was the dumbfuck who refused to get a vaccine.

I've binge watched a bunch of Oilers games from the past couple weeks, because Connor loving McDavid, and one thing that really stands out is holy cow does Darnell Nurse look terrible. I'm not saying he is actually terrible. I'm sure he's a perfectly solid second pairing guy. But he's being asked to do so much more than he has the skills to handle, and then also when he's on the ice he's constantly trying to do more than he's capable of, and it's just embarrassing. I'm not sure what the fancystats say about him, but he seems reliably good for one giant fuckup per period. Gives me Matheson flashbacks.

Binnington got a match penalty, so that's auto-hearing and suspension level for being a dumbass. It's not the first time this season for him getting booted either, so it'll be interesting to see if it gets longer or not.

The NHL can, and sometimes do, rescind a Match penalty. That said, Binnington jumped Hartman after the play ended and threw a punch with his blocker, both of which are considered serious infractions. The Match penalty was for the blocker punch.

Horvat was playing with good linemates and was in an offense-first system in Vancouver. Islanders? Not so much, especially with Barzal hurt.

I love Bo, but the contract he got from the Islanders would have never happened with Vancouver (and rightfully so).
