etsen3 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Well okay, not any team, but most teams. He has great puck possession because of his size, he's got hard forecheck and is liable defensively (making him an effective two-way centre), decent at draws, and makes great passes. All for pretty much peanuts; this, along with Pahlsson, are some of the best acquisitions MG has made, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Blart Molly Cop Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 An amazing acquisition by MG. I never get bored watching him. He's just a workhorse. Higgins is a beast too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ButterBean Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 This thread was made based off of his performance tonight, and you say he's a 2nd liner? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dak72 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Great pick up by MG. Higgins as well. Perhaps Kassian will eventually get the message and see how he should be playing. Think Kass has a ton of upside - and will be much better next year - but he needs to start finishing his checks. Max never turns away from a check...never. He's young (think 26?) and I'm sure MG will ensure he sticks around with this club for many years to come! +1 to Maxamillion for tonight's game!

Tearloch7 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Yes, Lappy got 3 points tonight, but he's no second liner... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roland Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Lapierre is definitely a player that stands out when he is on the ice. Similar to Higgins, he is a player who plays his heart out every game putting all his effort into his hits, fore-check and puck possession. Hope to see him in a Canucks uniform for the years to come.

tas Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 did you guys miss the 60 or so games this year where max was a total non-factor? don't get me wrong, i'm a lapierre fan and i appreciate what he brings to the table, generally, but let's be serious here.

Avicii Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 LOL at people thinking Lapierre is a legitimate top 6 forward. The guy is an ideal bottom 6 guy, someone who can step in when needed, and only that. He barely brings any offense to any line, but he does get the puck with his excellent forecheck. He's definitely one of the best 4th liners in the whole entire league, and he definitely can be a 3rd liner. (As we saw during last years playoffs) He will never ever be a regular top 6 forward though. Even now, he's only there cause Danny's injured.

HuddieJ Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Whatever line he's on, I feel like he brings it every night. He knows his role and he plays it damn near perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
