darkpoet Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Time to clear the cupboards and restock the depth. None of these guys are big losses. People may raise their eyebrows at letting MAG go but he was a throw in. Kassian was the main piece of that deal. i would like to see Pinizzotto get another shot. He was lookin pretty good until his injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABurrows14 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Gragnani was a plug. Not sure why we moved Sulzer for him. Sulzer showed he was at least reliable depth. After watching Grags play I often wondered what he was doing. Coughed up the puck alot even in the offensive zone where he was supposed to be good, seemed out of sorts on the pp (would see him down low at the post often),not to mention his horrific defensive play. He can skate thats about it. So who cares. Duco would have liked to have back for depth but I guess we must have plans for that in place, and would have liked to see Parent kept as depth as well but I guess this means they feel guys like Connaughton, Sauve/Corrado are ahead of him....

CB007 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 So each passing day with absolutely no hockey being played makes you know more about Kassian? ...who came from a deal for a player who didn't want to be here? What exactly is your role in the Canucks organization? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canucksbiggestfan Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Should have signed Gragnani, but maybe they are going to sign him to a new contract. They should bring Gragnani back on a 2-way contract worth 625k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bloodycanuckleheads Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 > The Cody trade is looking worse with each passing day. So naive... 1. Kassian is a year behind Hodgson in development. 2. So, you don't compare him to Hodgson of this year, you compare him to Hodgson of last year. 3. Last year, Hodgson had 2 NHL points and was a middling AHL player (0.58ppg). 4. This year, Kassian had 10 NHL points and was a near-dominant player (0.87ppg) in the AHL. 5. Hodgson plays a position we have two trophy winners playing already. 6. Kassian plays a position we need.

Tanev's Smirk Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Bad move not re-signing Ebbett. He was one of our better depth players... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksFanMike Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Ebbett and Rome are both too old to be RFAs so they cannot be qualified... Parent was a bust, and Oreo was in Coach V's bad books. Gragnani should have been qualified though cause we just aquired him and he has time to develop into a solid offensive defenceman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hky14 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Wow......Hodgson deal is looking worse by the minute....basically we got Kassian for Hodgson now. MG losing some of his GM credibility on this one i'm afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkstar Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Gragnani was a plug. If he picks up his game a bit, he might be like a Marc-Andre Bergeron but that is probably his ceiling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaNuCkSLoUiE23 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 MG should've offered Ebbet at least a 1 year deal. He was a great depth player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
