Merci Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 My favourite was when the Canucks smartly decided to avoid doubling his salary to keep him after his play has been declining and amid injury concerns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOMapleLaughs Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Favorite memories: The pp hatty vs SJ. 'Smell the glove!' Least-favorite: "Goddammit Salo! Suck it the frack up!" Marchand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonSolaris Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Me, it was the last Canucks Fright Night when Salo was paired up with Volpatti(?). I wanted a picture with Sami, but he didn't want the other guy left out and nudged toward him. In truth, I was going to talk to the other guy anyways as he was left alone, but I thought after it was a good gesture. I'll need to check my pic to see who it was. Class act, all the best Sami.Later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoaltenderInterference Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Gonna miss Sami Salo. He was one of my favourite defensemen here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vannuxforlife Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Good bye sami! you, your booming slapshot, and your seemingly bizarre injuries at times will all be missed. It is going to take some getting used to seeing you play for someone else! Best of luck! Fondest memory of salo hard to pinpoint, so many wonderful slapshots where you just knew he was about to laser one into the net! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortorella's Rant Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Those two goals against the Sharks. I'm surprised we didn't see more of that last year. Especially 5 on 3. Look how far down into the slot he got for a one timer. NO goalie is going to stop that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luongo_01 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Posted in the Signings thread... but since this is memories... Man I'm gonna miss this guy. His slapshot was so exciting to watch. Best of luck, Sami. Like Mattias, forever a Canuck. Notables for me in recent memory.

derr12 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I disagree. It is fan sentimentality that drives the local opinion of Salo. He was the best of the rest on our defense, and besides a big slapper, I don't think he was as strong a defenseman as some make him out to be. With Salo's injury concerns, I think the Canucks can improve with his departure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
