UFCanuck Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I hope Vandermeer is the guy getting put on waivers. Volpatti is a solid role player and I want to see what Barker can do when given a chance. I doubt anyone will pick up Vandermeer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BananaMash Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 I entirely disagree... the best time to put guys on waivers (if you don't want them claimed) is today. There will be dozens of other players on the wire at the same time as every team has to drop to the 23 man roster and it would be much less likely that it would be your guy picked up. Putting someone on waivers a couple of days from now (or even tomorrow) risks other teams finding out a player on their roster sucks or someone gets hurt (expect a dozen groin pulls over the weekend) and they don't have the depth on their own farm teams. I think this is a reasonable roster: Sedin-Sedin-Burrows Raymond-Ebbett-Kassian Higgins-Lapierre-Hansen Volpatti-Malhotra-Vandermeer Weise Bieksa-Hamhuis Edler-Garrison Ballard-Tanev Barker-Alberts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossram Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 You guys realize he can't be plucked off of waivers? It's the only move that makes sense. Ebbett would probably be scooped up. Send him down, and then call him back up shortly after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BananaMash Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 This is what some of us have been trying to say. Waivers are the only reason Jordan was sent down. Any of the other bubble players would have been claimed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remy Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 This thread is so full of fail. To the people freaking out about this and calling the move stupid, you need to relax. It has been said already in this thread but some people don't seem to read. This was entirely a move about getting down to 23 players. Very little doubt in my mind that Shroeder is back up with the big club sooner than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuck nit Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Schroeder came up and played well so he is ready so he will be slowly brought in to play at the pro level. He is going to get his playing time and will be in the Canucks line up this season,probably much sooner than later. However,with Manny,Lappy,Hank,Ebbett and Kes all ahead of Jordan it is tough for him to get quality minutes on the big club and that is not good for anybody. I would rather see him get bigger and stronger down on the farm and then come up and play a full season next year. I could see him come in with limited minutes ,playing second unit PP time.I am sure the club will not hurt his mental or physical development in this manner. My guess is he will be a tweener this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spotted Zebra Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 All I ask is that once Jordan comes up, GIVE HIM THE SECOND LINE CENTRE SPOT. Let Ebett play as the 13th forward, unless he scores at a .66 ppg pace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebreh Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 Why send down Schroeder? we couldnt send down one of Volpatti/Weise/Malhotra and make room for him when we NEED secondary scoring? Dafuq is that? I know its just a scrimmage last night, be he really had some chemisty with Kas and Mayray. We find a temporary 2nd line and then he gets sent down.. I thought the training camp is where players get to earn their spots, as far as im concerned, he has done enough to earn a spot on the starting lineup. What has Malhotra, Volpatti done again? this is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2nastie Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 WOW this is RIDICULOUS, Vancouver is such a dead zone for prospect. Really useless. Play the kid already. Why on earth do we need so many d-men at the beginning of the year. One of Barker or Vandemeer should have gone down. Bunch of idiots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireGillis Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Just another reactionary response from someone looking to have their anti-AV bias confirmed for them without actually understanding the larger issues and reasons for sending Schroeder down. Why do so many people post the first drivel that pops into their head without bothering to give the issues a moment of consideration? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BananaMash Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I'm not going to tell you what to do, but you should probably feel very silly for making this post. There's a 23 man roster limit and Schroeder is the only one not eligible for waivers. He will be back, you just need to go take a deep breath.

The Bookie Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 AV lovers are the worst. He's a failure of coach and can't develop prospects. How much more evidence do you need? How many more years of failure do you need to see? AV is a joke of a coach and should be canned ASAP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebreh Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Schroeder >>>>>>> Malhotra,Weise,Volpatti. Those 3 make up up our 4th line. Thats not even in the top 6 of an AHL lineup let alone be on a team thats contending for the cup. It will be comical watching that 4th line, disaster waiting to happen.
