Thirty Niner Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Kassian - All hype, all bark, no bite. Soft. Showed good discipline early on tonight though. Bieksa - Done nothing since the 2011 San Jose game winning goal. Dude puts on this "I'm Kevin Bieksa face" but is afraid to get his feet wet in the corners. Didn't respond with anything when Sedin was knocked out last year. Booth - Too busy working on his twitter fan base to work on his shot accuracy. Hamhuis - Like Bieksa, this guy is supposed to be a defenseman. USE YOUR BODY, HIT, OR DO SOMETHING. Wiese - This guy skates around and doesn't do much. Can I have Raffi Torres back please? e Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksSayEh Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Why you put Weise in there? dude is having a beast game and has always been a solid player for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thirty Niner Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 I don't like Wiese. When he is on the ice, the opposition is like "Oh look, it's Dale Wiese." When Torres was on the ice they were saying "Keep your head up guys, Raffi Torres is out there." Huge difference. I want a guy on my team that is hard to play against. Like Cooke used to be. Torres. Ruutu. I don't care how hated they are. We need the LA Kings "we're douchebags but we get it done" model. Now or it's going to get too late. We have the skill up front. We need guys that will grind the crap out of the other team. Bang them up hard and run up the score. It's that simple. The new model. AV needs to light a spark under the team and stop chewing so much gum, it's bad for your teeth, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Bang Boogie Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Why would you throw Booth in there? He's not even playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimLahey Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Posters that bother me? The ones who panic and complain about a team on every aspect based on 2/3 of a game. This game has been disappointing thus far, but the canucks will not be going 48-0-0, nor will they go 0-48-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Jane Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 wow this is game one. Look what the kings did tonight and we are missing kesler and booth. Have you ever played hockey before cause every new season the fisrt couple of games some players are rusty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thirty Niner Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 I put Booth in there because he is an insignificant waste of a 2nd line roster spot IMO. Higgins, however, is a beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thirty Niner Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 I loved Raffi too, but he was a 3rd liner for us wasn't he? and a 1st round pick? A guy with some years under his belt too. Dale is a sophomore, has mad potential, good size and speed. He can be a legit player some day and isn't costing us anything right now. The list of 4th line players better than Weise is very very short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thirty Niner Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 What I don't understand is how people can support a soft team that was knocked out in the first round of the playoffs, when we are 3 or 4 big roster moves away from having the powerhouse we had when we were up 2-0 against Boston in the SCF. Then people are like, "oh I can tell who is a fan only when the Canucks are contenders." PLEASE dude. I am about something the management has not been for the last season, IMPROVING the team. Okay. Obviously what we have isn't cutting it. It's time to innovate. Why can't the Canucks be hard hitting and ruthless? The best effort last season was against Boston, hands down. Let's just sit with what we have now. When Duncan Keith levels our top forward with an elbow to the head, then what? We need some Prongeress.
