Canucks Talk
The Whiteboard: Rebuilding Trust in Vancouver

Because there's already a rink there that the Canucks don't use.

So if they're taking a chunk of it, it's going down rather than adding to it.

Canucks Talk
The Whiteboard: Rebuilding Trust in Vancouver

Yeah.

Canucks Talk
The Whiteboard: Rebuilding Trust in Vancouver

And before we get out of here, I do just want to draw, like, a direct analogy between the practice rank thing and the rebuild.

Canucks Talk
The Whiteboard: Rebuilding Trust in Vancouver

Because you look at the, again, there's been the debate about whether we have one sheet of ice or two sheets.

Canucks Talk
The Whiteboard: Rebuilding Trust in Vancouver

And you look at the site, and I just keep looking at it, and there is clearly room for

on the site, when you take into account the big surface parking lot there, to do a really special project.

The Whiteboard: Rebuilding Trust in Vancouver

And I think it would have a lot of, there's a lot of potential because of the location, the history there, to do something that is incredible for the Canucks and incredible for the community and really does strengthen that tie between fans and the community and the team.

if everyone involved has the vision and the willingness to do it, right?

Canucks Talk
The Whiteboard: Rebuilding Trust in Vancouver

And I think that's exactly how you could describe the situation the Canucks find themselves entering a rebuild.

Canucks Talk
The Whiteboard: Rebuilding Trust in Vancouver

As much as it sucks to be here, there's also an opportunity to do something really special if everyone has the vision and the patience necessary

and whatever else necessary to get that done.

Canucks Talk
The Whiteboard: Rebuilding Trust in Vancouver

And I hope in both cases that the good side comes to fruition here, but there's also, whether it's the practice rink or the rebuild itself, there's also a chance that it gets rushed, that corners get cut, and you end up with something that's kind of half-baked.

Canucks Talk
The Whiteboard: Rebuilding Trust in Vancouver

And so I really do think there is a meaningful analogy between those two things, and again, hopefully the better path is taken there.

Lineup notes, nothing to mention here.

Canucks Talk
The Whiteboard: Rebuilding Trust in Vancouver

Day off for the team today.

I think you had us covered with the Chamber of Horrors stats for the day, Drance, for the regulation win.

So we're all good there.
