    Doubt there are many leagues, that own Booth, but it's a big blow to Vancouver. Team not look so hot with Kesler and Booth injured. Hopefully Hamhuis' injury is nothing serious, or the Canucks will be in big trouble.

    Maybe I shouldn't have worded it like that. Because the fact is that he is owned in a ton of leagues, but there are more leagues where he isn't owned then leagues where he is owned. On top of that there are even fewer leagues where Booth is an important part of ones fantasy team.

    He knows how to fall on his belly so he can take Kesler's spot up front.

    Word is he strained it DURING his physical ...... if that doesn't cement his BAB status I don't know what does.

    My guess is that he failed the physical right?

    Oh god that is terrible...

    Yet it was Hodgson who was shipped out as 'a disappointment'... effing Booth and his $4mil/year.

    yeah I thought the same thing when I read about this...I never understood the Hodgson hate in VAN to be honest,...I dunno how you see it Loch, but to me it seemed like a horrible mismanagement of a quality prospect on the franchise's part.

    Hodgson's back/neck injury was mismanaged in pretty much the same manner as Crosby's concussion/neck injury. The team doctors got it wrong (though in fairness it was an odd one) and when he got outside help it got fixed and he got back to normal(ish). The difference is, Crosby has more clout in these matters.

    Once he was back I think he pushed hard for an increased role (when talking to coaches/management) which rubbed the coaches and management the wrong way. Vigneault likes 'his guys' and veterans... and Hodgson was neither. Gillis commented about spending more time on Hodgson's 'issues' than anyone else's. That, plus the injury contention, pegged him as a problem and he got moved out.
    I still think it was a mistake, but then again I wanted Vigneault fired two years ago (and still get bugged by some of his decisions).

    My bet for this year is that Hodgson outpoints anyone not named Sedin on the Canucks since Kesler is injured. Maybe Burrows or Edler beat him, it'll be close.

    Seriously though, how does Booth get hurt in the physical?
