  1. sedins can make alot of players look good but burrows is the only one that really made the sedins better as a line...hes been the only one to truly fit right in with the cylce game and not just stand in front of the net...
  2. no more kevin glenn beck or lulay if hes good to go.
  3. that coach knows his days are numbered... jeff garcia will be Head Coach by next year.
  4. too bad hes not the one of the ice...i dont like the adaptability of our players...
  5. to win a cup after leaving van?? brent sopel ,matt cooke, further back scott walker...im sure there are others but im just thinking of guys who spent a good deal of time with us before going to another team..
  6. he was owed it after the ridiculous discount he gave the canucks... no one else even came close to giving that big of a discount... last person to be that unselfish was linden when he took a pay cut so we could give more money to Jovo..when burr signed that 2m a year deal he was easily worth 4-4.5 at the time hes had one bad injury filled year and when he did play his line was rarely together as each sedin battled through injuries... its easy to see that all 3 of those guys need each other. burr can still be very effective in other roles down the line up and PK and hank still does ok with other wingers daniel is completely lost without his brother. burr is one of the type of players even if he isnt scoring he still brings alot to the team... same cant be said for alot of guys on the team including the sedins.
  7. sedins without him dont seem to have one either...
  8. i really thought he was finally getting his game back in the second half of last year... i didnt see a reason to buy him out. one of our fastest skaters and hardest workers last year..now he will go and be a complete bargain for some other team...
  9. no AV just pretty much sat down rick nash after he started playing well vs montreal just ripped him off the PP in the finals ... he didnt do it early in the playoffs when nash wasnt playing well... that wouldve made too much sense... AV decides to take a players minutes away once he starts producing..
  10. we got the furthest with ex blue jackets.. manny and raffi so maybe there is somthing to this... philly will be next to reach the cup with mason, vorachek, and coutourier (who was who they drafted with CBJs pick)
  11. i dont know about them playing their best.. first 2 games they should have lost... game 3 they got it going. some how they managed to take off game 1 and 2 and still walk away with wins . thats the mark of a good team..
  12. well in response to this and pineapples response to this about it being disappointing that we all except this.... I except this because the "OT rules" is how all of us would like to see hockey played... but the fact of the matter is players couldnt survive an 82 game season of the "OT rules" or the "playoff rules" and its not like the players themselves dont know their is a difference . thats why its important to have guys on your team that can battle through it . Its what makes NHL playoffs the best hockey on earth. the problem i have with hockey today is how the 2 referee system works...At the begging the 2 refs were supposed to work as follows ... Back ref watches away from the play for any infractions , and the near ref watches the play itself for infractions... it looks so bad when a ref 50 feet away from the play calls a penalty that took place 2 feet in front of the near ref who didnt call a penalty. Why is there no common sense from the back ref to say to himself "hey , my partner who is standing right there didnt think its a penalty , chances are its not" end of rant.
