If you hail from BC you have likely witnessed the beauty that is the North Shore mountains, but sadly not many are aware of the dangers they can present if you enter the backcountry unprepared. 

The Vancouver Canucks made some moves prior to the NHL trade deadline with the intention of adding some versatile forwards that could fit into the current age group of the team.

Anders Nilsson's family and friends are always on his mind. This season they're also on his mask.

Hey everyone,

I'm very relieved and excited to be blogging again, it means I'm still with the Canucks! It was pretty tense for me earlier this week while management made their roster decisions; obviously I felt I played well in pre-season and had a good camp, but you never know. Now I know that at least for the time being, I'm here.

Hi Canucks fans, 

How gorgeous is Vancouver! The weather was beautiful yesterday, it's beautiful out today and it'll be beautiful out tomorrow. Beautiful. I had a chance to explore the city a bit last Friday, so Thatcher Demko and I rented bikes and road around the seawall. That was my first time and it was pretty cool. I didn't know it was that long of a bike ride, we were gassed pretty early. But once you get halfway, there's no going back, but we finished strong.

Hello again!

Forgive me for not writing in a few days, I've been busy with work. The boys and I are hoping to rebound this week after a tough start to the season; seems ridiculous to call it do-or-die already, but it's must win for me this week.

The games may not count in the standings, but pre-season never lacks in drama and this year's exhibition campaign is shaping up to be one of the most compelling in years for the Canucks. Here are five storylines that make this pre-season a must watch.

Another day, another blog - I'm getting used to this!

Last time I wrote was Sunday from Penticton, way back when David Johnson was still the best running back on my fantasy football team. Now he's having wrist surgery and is out for the bulk of the season, and I'm in Vancouver taking part in Canucks Training Camp. Oh how the times have changed.

Dear Vancouver,

Before this season begins, we wanted to write a letter to the city, and to everyone who has supported us for the past 17 years. Aside from being brothers, we have always been best friends, and we have played together on the same line since we were 12 years old, so we wanted to do this together, too.

Hey fans! 

The smoke has pretty much cleared in Penticton; the sun was shining this weekend and wow, what a view! This is a gorgeous place and although I spent most of my Sunday inside the rink, I caught some rays from my balcony this morning.
