Nikolay Goldobin as a Healthy Scratch is Hot Garbage

When the present is bleak, there’s nothing to do but look ahead and ask yourself, how can I improve in the future?

That’s the question Canucks management should be asking themselves every day when the wake up, when the eat breakfast, when the take a morning dump, and a few more times throughout the day before they go to bed.

When they ask themselves this question, I would really like to know where they get the idea of playing Jussi Jokinen ahead of Nikolay Goldobin.

why is Jussi Jokinen on this team

On a team that desperately needs to see what they have in their young talent, there cannot be a good justification for having the 34-year-old Jokinen play ahead of guys like Goldobin.
