OPINION: Canucks’ goaltender has been their MVP over the first half of the season
We usher in an exciting new year with the same old Monday morning musings and meditations on the world of sports.
At that point, their season was hanging in the balance and the discontent among the masses was palpable. Markstrom then responded with four straight wins in games where the Canucks were outshot 152 to 102 on aggregate. If that means losing someone else, that’s the price you pay for securing the most important position on the team.
And here’s Benning on Nils Hoglander, the 19-year-old who led Sweden with 11 points in seven games at the WJC: “He’s ahead of schedule.”• Wouldn’t exactly bet the farm on the Seattle Seahawks making it to the Super Bowl but the NFC’s playoff picture has changed following the wild-card round. Stern was a champion of the Vancouver Grizzlies. He awarded Arthur Griffiths the franchise over the protests of others in the basketball community because he loved the idea of securing the Pacific Rim as a gateway to the Asian market.
That, at least, is the condensed version of the events. We have neither the time nor the inclination to revisit the entire story of Stu Jackson, Benoit Benjamin, Big Country, Doug West, Steve Francis and, lest we forget, Heisley’s henchman Dick “Six Tankers” Versace.
