1. Bear is an RFA currently negotiating his next contract with the Canucks.

2. Hopefully he gets surgery and comes back like a dented can of soup. Still the same quality, but a little cheaper.

3. Watch this be a nagging shoulder injury then we sign him to a long term deal. 💀

4. Yeesh, sucks for Bear.

   I get playing for your country and all, but probably not the best idea if your contract situation is in flux. Secure the bag first.

5. Maybe Canucks should stop going to this tournament, they seem to get injured a lot.
