Tanev's Smirk Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 We're forced to look at his downside because of the amount of times he falls face first in to the ice. I'm sure we'd all love to see his upside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Doctor Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I'd give him one more shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raph Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Speedy wingers with an inaccurate shot? They are a dime a dozen in the NHL now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginu Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Hard to look at his any positives for a guy who has many troubles. Unfortunately upsides<downsides for MayRay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lateralus Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Wait so his UPSIDE is that he's a small speedy winger with a hard but inaccurate shot? I'd hate to hear what his downside is. yikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c00kies Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 We already have Jannik Hansen who can be a speedy 2-way forward, so that diminishes Raymond's importance on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TACIC Posted May 9, 2012 Author Share Posted May 9, 2012 Well Raymond shot has never been the same since that broken thumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TotesMagotes Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Raymonds upside isn't his shot. It's alright, but he can't rely on it. His strengths are using his speed and agility along the boards to create open space for himself to drive to the net. We have seen this from Raymond before. A full off season of training and working out is going to do wonders. Raymond will be the biggest surprise next season. Quote me on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c00kies Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 the downside is that it's not a hard shot, and he falls down when he comes in contact with any of the following: a player the boards a ref a players stick a loose stick laying on the ice the puck a groove in the ice a chip in the ice a small breeze a speck of dust a photon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOMapleLaughs Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Upside: Blazing speed. Downside: A breeze knocks him down. He is a 'New NHL' player. Unfortunately at the moment the NHL looks old again. Cheers. TOML Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesman60 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Raymond is still playing like he is nervous about his back (understandably). If he would start busting to the middle or taking the puck to the middle, he would be way more effective and that may take time for him get over the injuries. Vancouver has to make the right moves now so that they can take advantage of the Sedin's and Kesler's talent while they are at their peak. In order to do that, they need a big forward like Nash to play with them and Raymond does not fit that bill....Raymond is not a player that is going to play a gritty skilled game...he is the roadrunner....meep meep gone... He can be a valuable player on a team that needs speed on the forecheck and has enough skill to score a few perimeter goals. He just needs to go to the right team...and that team is not Vancouver...he just doesn't fit the skillset that is required for next season.
