He likely has knees that are bowed and a back that is somewhat compressed. He’s likely a couple inches shorter now than when 20. https://osteoporosis.ca/height-loss/ HEIGHT LOSS AND OSTEOPOROSIS 66% of broken bones in your back are painless. ARE YOU LOSING HEIGHT? It is normal to lose a little height as we get older… but too much height loss can mean that osteoporosis is causing bones to break in your spine, which is making you become shorter. This type of height loss is NOT normal. You may not be aware of a broken bone in your back because 66% are painless. So how can you tell the difference between normal height loss and height loss due to osteoporosis? HAVE YOUR HEIGHT MEASURED REGULARLY Everyone over 50 years of age should have a height measurement annually. Measuring how tall you are once every year can allow you to keep track of height change. It is best to ask a healthcare provider to measure and record your height for you professionally, rather than doing it yourself. This provides the most accurate measurements. KEEPING TRACK OF YOUR HEIGHT When I was a young adult, I was ____ tall. I had a more recent professionally measured height at the age of ____ and I was ____ tall. Today, I am ____ years old and my professionally measured height is ____ tall. Height loss since a recent measuremennt = (2) – (3) = ____. Height loss since young adult = (1) – (3) = ____. WARNING SIGNS OF A POSSIBLE SPINE FRACUTURE ☐ If you have lost 2 cm or more (¾”) in height, as measured by your healthcare provider, you may have a spine fracture ☐ If you have lost 6 cm or more (2½”) in height since you were a young adult, again, you may have a spine fracture. Spine fractures are not the only reason people may lose height. Other causes of height loss include poor posture or arthritis. However, if you have lost height then you do need to be checked for the possibility of a broken bone in your back. Bone density tests are not designed to show bone fractures. To diagnose a bone fracture, what is needed is a regular X-ray of the thoracic and lumbar spine (the upper back and the lower back). Two thirds of spine fractures are painless so you may have had a spine fracture and not even know it. The only warning sign may be your loss of height. Talk to your doctor if you think you have lost some height. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, this series has shown us that the teams were well-matched for each other (despite the sweep we did in the regular season). Tonight, it boils down to which team wants it more, which team is willing to skate through walls and get that puck, which team is willing to bring superior defence to shut down the other team's stars, which goaltender is dialed in, which skaters are willing to face adversity and chase it out the rink. Reality is, if we bring our A game, we can (and have) beat them before. * ref-induced game management notwithstanding Yup! This game will be beyond epic! It’s time for the extra-ordinary! Help from the other-side of the veil like stuff! We KNOW they are worthy! And, so are WE! The sacrifices are real! The latest setback just adds to the challenges that makes their storied run all the more compelling! More & more eyes around the world are watching it, rooting for them & willing them to win! They can tap that power to do more, skate faster, hit harder & shoot better! It’s their time to shine for one game, & not worry about tomorrow. All hands on deck - all in! No doubters or naysayers welcome! We BELIEVE!!!! Go Canucks Go!!! Win this for the gippers!!! 3 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly think its gonna be a lot of different combos Tocchet is gonna be blending the lines and playing petey lindholm and miller probably close to 24 minutes each might see some lines of petey - miller - lindholm suter - miller - D G hogz - Petey - Miller you get the picture, there’s a big hole to fill tonight and as much as it will be a bottom 6 elevating his game it will be the whole team now winning for Brock and everything else theyve worked for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spook007 Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 2 hours ago, Nucker67 said: Pettersson doesn't deserve his current $7,350,000 the way he's played in these playoffs. Petey needs to dig deep and play his little heart out if the Canucks want to win. Will we be talking about how awesome Petey was in Game 7 and the rest of these playoffs or will we spend the summer complaining about how Petey will become the most overpaid player in the league? More to come. C'mon Petey, do it for Brock What?? How much is a 89 point season worth?... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
