Coach V - Luongo is day-to-day with upper body injury.
Coach V confirms Pinizzotto is out for the season after shoulder surgery. Ebbett is indefinite.
Coach V - Schneider will start tomorrow vs. #Chicago.
Straight from the Canucks twitter feed. Sounds like Schneider will be starting against Chicago tomorrow night. Rumblings on Twitter suggest that Luie might not even be backup. Stay tuned.

Maybe Lui got his bell rung by that save he made the other night – sorta like Dipietro did earlier this season

AV is the man
Just heard AV on TEAM. I love our coach. When talking about the injury, he demurred of being more specific with
“In light of what happened in Buffalo, we’re not sure what is and isn’t allowed on goalies, so I am just going to say upper body right now…”
With DiPipietro V’, it was the helmet he was wearing. Lui was even specific in the post game in that it hit where “sometimes it rings and vibrates, but that one I didn’t even feel that much…”(paraphrasing )..with DP, it was a helmet that is not even approved any more, and has a little square on top like a target for shooters.

I can see it happening though. I had shoulder surgery a year ago and with the type of tear I had it was kind of deceptive. 99% of the time my shoulder was fine and felt like nothing was wrong, but it would randomly “pop out” (shoulder subluxation). I have even popped it out sneezing lmao. Turns out the tear was over 180 degrees along the labrum, they had to reattach a ligament that had almost completely detached and repair a hill sachs lesion (a dent from the initial impact). But with how damaged my shoulder was, I was practically symptom free for years after the initial injury, other than random dislocation lol
Go Canucks Go!
I feel bad for the guy. Went from having a good chance of playing on the 4th line, to a year of not playing at all.
Aaron Rome once had an awkward moment, just to see how it feels.
Goaltender is a normal job. Sure. How would you like it if at your job, every time you made the slightest mistake a little red light went on over your head and 18,000 people stood up and screamed at you? - Jacques Plante
I really feel bad for him too, he really did have a good chance, he looked great before he got injured. Plus it sounded like he thought that he was close to returning. (which is what made me think that perhaps whatever is wrong with his shoulder may have been deceptively relatively symptom free)
I hope his surgery goes well and that he has a good recovery and has a decent shot next season. I would also wish for him that maybe he has a speedier recovery than projected but it really depends on the type of shoulder injury apparently. Lol my surgeon actually used nhl players as an example when I was asking when I could return to normal activity and he said even a top athlete in the best shape like an nhl player, he would tell them they can’t even begin to start working out or doing any sports for 6 months. (other than physio of course which for my injury was mostly just range of motion stuff) so if it was a similar type of injury I don’t know that a speedier return is allowed. But I can hope that it isn’t like that and he can get back to things sooner rather than later :)
Go Canucks Go!
Wow shoulder injuries sound brutal.

What’s up with Byron Bitz? I remember he was supposed to be good.

He is still on IR/and it was a groin.
6’5 and 215 though. Giddyup

do they have a projected recovery?
i’d rather him be 6’5 and 251 though

From when he signed
VANCOUVER PROVINCE: Jason Botchford recently reported newly acquired Canucks forward Byron Bitz was happy to have hip surgery in March, as it finally resolved what was nagging him physically and ultimately kept him sidelined throughout last season. He had sports hernia surgery in October and surgery in January to repair a groin tear, but it was the discovery of a labral tear which was the real reason he was having difficulty skating.
SPECTOR’S NOTE: Best wishes to Bitz for a speedy recovery and return to action. Last season was obviously a frustrating one.
Sounds like all the surgery is done, but he is still in recovery mode. He had a fair amount of work done!

more specific from AV on Bitz
and bemoaning what happened to our “depth”.
"Right now the three players that we signed for our depth are all injured. He’s done, we’re not quite sure on Bitz’ status yet, we’re still searching his injury right now and the other signing we had for depth this year was Andrew Ebbett, and he’s indefinite right now with a broken foot."

Probably not very serious
the fact that AV doesn’t want to say because of the Lucic/Miller situation means he expects Lui back in in the near future and doesn’t want players taking runs at him because they know something is still slightly recovering from a) groin injury b) concussion c) haircut

OT: Edler on breaing so many sticks:
“I’m using the same sticks as last year, I don’t know why they’re breaking, but there have been some breaks at some bad times," said Edler. "I don’t really know what to do about it, I can play around a bit with the stiffness and things like that, but I like the sticks so I don’t want to change."
So don’t change then. And keep breaking your sticks. Yay you smart.

So Luongo is out with a “groin” injury. Not only have we gotten into his head, we’ve gotten into his groin too. #Blackhawks

Gotten into his groin? That is just dirty/gross, lol

So she's saying
She’s gotten with Lu? What would his wife think about that?
"Playin hurt, baby that don't faze me. I don't got time for pain. The only pain I've got time for is the pain I put on fools who don't know what time it is!"
rofl
Is he still ‘shaken up’ from the 6-2 loss he helped hand the mighty hawks in their own barn 9 days ago?
it's really just that
when Lu thinks of beating Chicago, he gets one of those 4 hour boners you’re supposed to call your physician about.
Last summer sucked. In honor of the fallen, this season I'm taking a vacation from hate. I'm gonna love and tolerate the !@# out of everyone!

he'd better be careful

Hopefully Lu’s injury isn’t serious. On the other hand, we get to see how Schneids performs as the undisputed #1 for a bit.

Is the head considered an upper body injury?
If so he’s had that since 2007.

He got into a fight with his wife. So..head injury and heart injury.
So sad.

Was this fight after he injured his groin too, if you catch my drift?
"Playin hurt, baby that don't faze me. I don't got time for pain. The only pain I've got time for is the pain I put on fools who don't know what time it is!"
blue balls is considered a “lower -mid body injury”

Since when is the groin considered part of the “upper body”? He must have a big groin.

If he's out for anytime
Vancouver fans are finally going to get a real taste of how lucky we are to have him. Might be the best thing for everyone.
Or Schneider kicks royal ass….

But it’s a giant leap from promising back up to perennial Vezina candidate and one of the best goalies of your generation.
