I don't think it will compare to Cal Ripken's streak of 2,632 consecutive games played unless he makes it closer to like 1,500 (which would take about 6 more years of playing, and i don't think Phil can do that, at this age).

It does beat the record for most consecutive starts by an NFL player by a large margin, though (Brett Favre, 321 [including playoffs])


More like 1350 and 4 more years. Ripkens streak was 16 seasons, baseball seasons are 162 games or 164, cant remember exact.

What's an idiotic thing to say. I'm very happy he's on Vancouver and not on a team I actually like

He’s not wrong though. You’re spending money on the team and then saying you’re mad at the team, why are you spending money on it then

His ****ty mentality is part of the reason the team can't hold a lead. No wonder Tampa traded him

I can see why Canucks fans want him out now.

still doesn't mean we want him, since ACGM still thinks we do...

He might not be wrong but that is a terrible response from someone you would hope would be a leader for the team.

At least they only have 8 more years of him, moving that contract now is going to be so hard

coincidentally that’s also the amount of dollars (in millions) that he stole from poor people /s

Yeah, doesn't sit right. He's objectively not wrong, but it's bad optics... Not a great response.

Yep, even though that's the honest truth, as a player of that particular team, you shouldn't be talking like that.

You only have to look as far as Horvat to see a decent response... It really wouldn't have been that hard to come up with something.

I 100% agree with what he said. Throwing jerseys on the ice is an absolutely idiotic thing to do. But there are some things you just don’t say as a player.

I'd imagine he isn't in a great mood especially after a bunch of smooth brained Canucks fans decided to chirp him when he was at the pumpkin patch with his children

While I know that this isn't the greatest PR response, at least he is being honest and not just saying something everybody wants to hear.

Bedard said he thinks Vancouver is going to win the cup. He knows that he is the real cup. Bedard is probably the biggest fanboy the NHL has seen in a while. Bedard in Canucks PJs is inevitable

Was a career KHL goalie until the Olympics, then similar to Säteri was given an opportunity in the NHL after leaving there. Ended up signing with Seattle this offseason, and OTT claimed him off waivers after Talbot got injured.
