lappykass Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 What did you guys think of his post-season performance? I thought he looked absolute fantasic and did exactly what we thought he could do, all while getting 3rd pairing minutes. He was energetic, smart, and played with speed and power. Would you trade him in the offseason or try him out for the first 15 games or so with top 4 minutes? All opinoins are welcome:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 He played pretty well I thought. Just wish his cap hit wasn't as high Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustNazzy Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Willing to bet my left nut MG already tried to trade him. He was great though and I hope he keeps it up. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sampy Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I would rather Grabner and Howden and have used the cap for resigning Mitchell. MG's biggest blunder, he's pretty good otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 If we trade with Tampa Bay, you can almost rest assured that Ballard is going with Luongo as part of the deal. They are desperate for D-men, and he has shown that even though he is a very good player... he just isn't fitting into the niche we need here. I suspect that his spot will be ripe for the "bigger, stronger" element that Gillis is looking for. With Tanev and Gragnani almost certainly spending the year up with the big club, his skills are a bit superfluous. Expect to see a meaner customer signed on defence in his stead.

Xbox Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I really like our pairings of Tanev - Ballard Bieksa - Hamhuis I just want that key RD from Toronto for Luongo (Schenn and Franson come to mind) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RunningWild Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Sorry to burst the bubble, but he was terrible. I've already posted the numbers in other forums, but he was one of the worst Canucks defenseman (other than Salo) in that series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RunningWild Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 What statistics were you looking at? He was the only damn defenseman who knew how to play offense in that series on our team. Show me the numbers please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goblix Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 ballard -- tanev, the best pairing in the playoffs by far.. if he can return to 20+ minute form then his 4.2m will be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grapefruits Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 . Grabner is getting paid over 3m right now, and he sucks ass. One year wonder. He was on their 4th line most nights. Yes the Islanders have a 4th line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrible.dee Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I want Ballard to stay for one reason alone... ...He entertains me! The team is just more fun with KB4 around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
