I believe if Aman plays one more game he’s waiver eligible.

 

Might not be up to the coaching staff.

Interesting. So Aman would immediately have to clear waivers after that next game? i.e. There's no waiver exempt period for a demotion after the most recent recall (which would apply to an already player who has already cleared waivers previously)?

I don’t understand why they wouldn’t just eat the whole animal. 

 

Agreed, it's beyond cruel

Hopefully no repeat performance from Calgary

Call ups get 10 games or 30 days to be returned back without waivers I think.  I'm not sure how it applies in this case

Thanks man; I needed that.

 

WARNING: The following has nothing, or very little, to do with being a Canucks Fan:

 

And, you are correct: I am a hypocrite.

It is difficult to not be a hypocrite when all your life you have been supported by forestry, fishing, and mining and then learn that your entitlement and continued behaviour is killing the planet.  My life if full of hypocrisy.

On the Canucks; I don't like it when people trash on Canucks, but I do it myself.

 

I complain about destruction of the forests and oceans, yet had sockeye salmon for dinner last night by the fir-firewood fire.

I don't know the way out of these things, but I try.

I own my house; but it is on native land, stolen native land, and built with stolen lumber, by people who thought they were doing the right things.

I could pay for it because I had great education and other great opportunities, to get "a leg up" which I learned is this White Entitlement stuff, a very real thing.

 

e.g. I phoned the local office of the band (do we still call them 'bands', I don't know, but I'm trying to learn) that 'my land' sits on.  I told the man on the phone that I owned a house I was pretty sure was on their land.  He said, "What are you going to do about it?" and hung up.  We both have a ways to go.

 

I LOVE THE CANUCKS AND THE WAY THEY ARE SUCCEEDING THIS SEASON!  GO CANUCKS GO!

Wow, did somebody hit a nerve or something?

If they killed and ate the sharks, ok.  Catching them, cutting off their fins while they're alive and dumping them into the ocean to drown is horrific

 

I can't believe how many people are ok with someone posting that gif.  

 

Tbh I didn't even see the gif. I was just being cheeky.

[Dr. Crossbar]

So, yeah ... nice weather we're having.

Aman never had to clear waivers when he was sent down (which was a big reason why he was)

 

Once he plays one more game he will require waivers to be sent down. 
 

They’re doing a very careful dance with cap space and roster spots right now so I’m not sure they wanna take away that flexibility.

 

Aman will be with the big club but it might not be till we move someone.

[Googlie]

Abby just scored against - down 2 - 1 with under 2 mins left

 

Edit: 3 - 1 down with Wranglers empty netter

 

2nd edit:  3 -1 Final.  Abby falls to 10 -5 -1 and  Calgary goes to 13 - 3 - 1

Makes sense. Once Aman loses waiver exemption, other GMs will try to take advantage of us knowing we need to offload someone.

Yes, the decision to call up Aman was essentially a decision play him on the big team for the rest of the season.

Not necessarily.

 

They could still send him down. All depends how long Suter is gonna be out.

 

I doubt they wanna carry 14 forwards with our D situation.

I hope there's a trade in the works then

We have too many forwards and no cap space.

Drama aside, I hope we win tonight. Go, Canucks!

Damn it, first game I'll miss this year. 

 

Going on a date to a fancy restaurant, doubt they'll have the game on TV.

When does an emergency call up (not count against waivers) apply? I seem to recall the Canucks did that earlier this year but not clear on circumstances surrounding it.

Probably best they don’t if you want date to go well. 
Unless it’s Deb then they better have the game on. 

[Bob Long]

just looking at the old cap friendly, Allvin is developing quite a decent bargain bottom 6. Assuming we can get Blueger and Suter back on similar deals:

 

Blueger - 1.9

Suter - 1.6

Hogs - 1.1

Lafferty 1.1

Aman 883k

PDG 775k

 

and maybe 

 

Podz around 1 mil if he's ready.

These games against the lower teams are always scary. The team knows they have Vegas in 2 games. The next two are SJS and ANA. I worry that they will overlook one or both of these teams. So far, Rick seems to have them ready and not looking ahead. I hope they come out on fire.

I think Tocchet is applying some of this liberally so no overlooking will be going on.
