Mark Spector ‏@SportsnetSpec 7m7 minutes ago Per @JSportsnet, Vey in tonight for Burrows. Baertschi doesn't play.

Darn.

Was really hoping someone could take a sign and put it behind the Vancouver net during warmups.

Hey Sven, Utica is that way

Darn, but with Vey available then you have to play him over Baertschi, especially considering travel (never mind that Vey is the better player at the moment as well).

Why don't they appreciate what Sven can do?

According to... John Shannon? Thanks, I'll wait for another source...

John Shannon ‏@JSportsnet
Expect Linden Vey to be in the Canucks lineup tonight, replacing the injured Alex Burrows.

Also he doesn't actually say it's confirmed, he says "expect" it. Could just be his opinion.

Really hoping we can nullify him and he doesnt get any reason to gain confidence.
Baertschi isn't a threat to us. But what Burrows' injury does do is change the dynamic of the Canucks to an eggs in one basket scenario. Putting Vrbata back on the top line gives them a lethal combination, and not much else.

Damn. I was hoping he would get caught on a line change and Johnny would undresses him at the blue-line and show him way he was made expendable.

Seems like he could be in after all? Some speculation on the HF Canucks that he is playing tonight.

@SportsnetSpec Now Richardson is out for Canucks, joining Burrows. Vey and Baertschi in.
