Shane O’Brien has received a one-game suspension for sticking it to Sean Avery on Tuesday at GM Place. The Vancouver Canucks defenceman, who had been benched after taking a double-minor penalty late in the second period, stormed the length of the players’ bench early in the third period to challenge the agitating Avery and stuck his stick into the abdomen of the New York Rangers winger. O’Brien was so worked up that he had to be restrained by Canucks coach Alain Vigneault. “You never want to be suspended and I don’t think it deserves one, but I’ll take my punishment,” said O’Brien, who won’t ...

friom Jim Matheson of the Edmonton Journal via the Vancouver Sun, In Alain Vigneault’s eyes, there is only one positive to Daniel Sedin being on the shelf with a broken foot. “Now, when I see (the twin) Hank in this environment I know it’s him, and when I see Danny on crutches, well, I know who he is … first time since I’ve been here (four years) that I can say that,” chuckled the Vancouver Canucks’ head coach, who makes no bones about the fact he still can’t tell Daniel from Henrik, unless they’ve got numbers on their jerseys. “Any time I crossed one ...

I don't like seeing our defencemen get caught up ice over and over again, or all players running around in their own zone, or having skilled players that don't back check. To me, that was the ...

From Tony Gallagher at the Province : For one night at least, it was back to reality for the Canucks and their fans. And while there were a lot of factors that played into Monday 's disastrous replay of the Alamo with the Canucks in the roles of Daniel Boone and Jim Bowie, perhaps coach Alain Vigneault outthinking himself contributed to the remorseless cuffing. Then again, maybe they were so bad nothing would have mattered. ... What Vigneault apparently did not take into consideration was the fact that with both Hordichuk and Bieksa out of the lineup, the physical edge the Canucks have enjoyed ... Read Full Story

from Matthew Sekeres of the Globe and Mail, Head coach Alain Vigneault said Sunday that Demitra’s recovery from off-season shoulder surgery “is not going as well as we had planned.” Demitra was supposed to miss at least the first three weeks of the season, but it now sounds like he’ll be gone even longer. “It’s not going as quick as he wanted,” Vigneault said. The injuries to Sedin and Demitra have left the Canucks looking fairly impotent on paper. Steve Bernier and Mason Raymond, who started as third-line wingers, have been bumped into the top six. more Related posts: Previewing The Canucks Canucks Hope ... Read Full Story
