The Canucks have sent Cody Hodgson back to Brampton.

Was thinking they might keep him for 9 games with Rypien injured, and he could get some RC's this year. Oh well..

Can't say that I'm surprised, given his back injury and how training camp went for him.

My wallet is doing one of these though: :dance:

Sorry Jai...

 

[DogfoodSoup]

Does this mean Jai will be moving back to Ottawa to be closer to him?

The WJHC is in Saskatoon, Chris. I'm WAY ahead of you.

And restraining order in 3...2...1..

That's disappointing... I guess i will have to go hard on shirokov then!

 

[hockeykid87]

Saw this coming. Didn't have a great camp/pre season. Back injury really slowed him down. Time for him to dominate the OHL again...

Well, I guess the YG HG war chest funds can be saved for the time being.

Kind of strange that Matt Duchene will be starting in the bigs before Hodgson. I bet a lot of people would have lost that bet.

I don't think it is that strange to be honest. Duchene is going into a worse team then Hodgson was, and Duchene was also considered by some to be the best payer in last years draft.

Not strange at all.

Vancouver is a deep, legitimate contender this year. Colorado is not.
Hodgson is hurt. Duchene is not.
