So whats all the fuss Injuries are part of game, thats why you cultivate your farm team.

Canucks GM Mike Gillis has done a good job of trying to re-stock a depleted farm system, and we all know injuries are going to occur in a season. But so many, so early, it did catch me by surprise.But Im sure Vancouvers management has been planning all summer for the inevitable No Im not talking about Sami Salo, poor guy. His injuries are a yearly thing you can set your calendar to. What Im referring to is the condensed schedule this year due to the Olympics, which see the 'Nucks on a nine game road trip before and six games after.That must be, like, the longest road trip in NHL history! Thats where the injuries will take their toll.

The team would need at a minimum nine defensemen, with the seven through nine being able to fill the five or six spot What the injuries also cause is cap room problems. But thats what teams' capologists are for, but thats for another day.. With Mathieu Schneider scheduled to come back in a couple of weeks.... ...and Christian Ehrhoff performing so well on the power play and penalty kill, the 'Nucks will be just fine without Salo, unlike years gone by. It just shows you the depth that Vancouver has built at the defense position. Hey you Toronto fans, take note! Thats a little dig for my eastern colleague, Mark The Hard Hitter Ritter, who just happens to be the Number 1 NHL writer for Bleacher Report So dont forget to check him out..
