Erik Karlsson Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 got a prospect trained him well time to trade for a bench warmer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortorella's Rant Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Pretty much how Vancouver seems to work, ship out prospects and keep giving guys like Raymond and Rome chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik Karlsson Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 In Raymond's defense, which prospect do you replace him with? And with Rome, he at least brought physicality and size that Tanev does not, so that can justify the reason to play him over Tanev. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Karlsson Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 That's why we re-signed Rome right?... Also Rome would have got less ice time if Ballard didn't play like utter crap 50% of the time he played... And before you cry about Raymond some more, he may not put up big offensive numbers but he is very solid defensively... But I suspect you know more about evaluating players than MG, AV, and Bowness right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vintage Canuck- Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I could see him having a strong year with the Canucks this upcoming season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uber_pwnzor Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 For now, but at the end of next season I don't know, Bieksa is overrated on these boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kassian Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 He almost reminds me of Hammer in a way. Not exciting to any degree but he can get the job done without leaving a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avicii Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Raymond is probably one of the best 3rd line LW defensive players in the league. But, meh, I like Higgins better. I honestly think Raymond's defensive play is better than Higgins', but I Higgins has a better upside in terms of offense. Yeah yeah, Raymond scored 25 goals, whatever. We'll see what happens in training camp. It's pretty much Higgins vs Raymond for that 3rd line LW spot. With both playing at their absolute best, that's a serious question mark.

goalie13 Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 *Shrug*.... Have you seen how people on CDC praise Schneider? He has only played 68 games, yet he is treated as the next coming of Patrick Roy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
