“What is”Odds and Ends” ?, you ask.

Simply put, it is a weekly column containing a variety of sorts of things regarding the Vancouver Canucks, the NHL, and anything else I care to add to the hodgepodge, mingle-mangle, mishmash, omnium-gatherum.

In general, the ‘Odds and Ends’ start prior to Canucks training camp, continuing into the 2024-25 NHL season; and hopefully into the 2025 Stanley Cup playoffs.

Or to put it another way, from the 2024 Young Stars Classic, to the Vancouver  Canucks 2024 Training Camp through the Exhibition hockey games, finally moving into  the 2024-25 hockey season and their competing for—and hopefully clinching—a spot in the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs and earning a chance to hoist the Stanley Cup.

Whew!…that was a lot to spew out.

NOTE TO SELF: I must watch that in the future. Maybe two paragraphs would have been better…hmm. Or not.

I hope I have answered your question. I know it was on the tip of your tongue.

Now before you compare it to Canucks Scuttlebutt—-DON’T—-It is not the same. You probably weren’t. But you were…right? C’mon, admitt it!

Canucks Scuttlebutt represents comments on X (Formerly Twitter) by the Vancouver Canucks, Canucks media, NHL media in general and others on the social media platform.

Canucks ‘Odds and Ends’, the sources are limitless, including the Soviet cosmonauts who listen to Canucks games as the cloaked Russian Space Station orbits the earth, when Nils Hoglander is in the lineup for the Canucks.

I take the most interesting posts off X (Formerly Twitter) on the Canucks and put them in a Canucks Scuttlebutt column, for the occasional two or three people who come across it.

With Canucks ‘Odds and Ends’ everything is fair game, directly or indirectly, including the kitchen sink.

Please check out Vancouver Canucks ‘Odds and Ends’ (hopefully to be shortened to “Odds ‘N Ends” in the near future) when it’s unleashed on the World Wide Web.

That’s a wrap, folks.

Poof… GONE!
