Everybody Loves Raymond (except Jim)...Merged


Bite me Burr

His skating blows?! He is easily the Canucks best skater...and when he fully healthy, one of the fastest in the league. He would have at least 4 assists so far if people would finish his passes.

Last year when playing with Kesler and Booth, it was always the same thing. Each of them would move into the zone and try to do it all themselves, no passing, no chemistry, they were terrible. Raymond has his strength back, is fully healthy and prepared fitness wise for the first time in 2 seasons, and his confidence is back.

You can see how hard he has worked. His core strength, skating, his shot is ridiculous, even his passing has been very good.

How long must we suffer watching Raymond "hustle" around the perimeter doing nothing? He brings nothing to the game outside of a token PK role.

What is the point of dressing this guy anymore? Waive him, trade him... anything. There are no positives to his game that make the team better for having him.

I have had enough of this guy.

Why is everybody focused on getting rid of either Booth or Raymond? For fracks sake, secondary offense is exactly what we need. Raymond looks to be getting back to his old self and Booth (coming off a bad injury) really didn't play badly at all for us and put up respectable numbers. We need both of these guys in the lineup.

Booth has yet to show the full extent of his abilities. For now Raymond looks to be the better player, let's wait till the end of the season before we decide whom to keep shall we?

EDIT: On a side note: the Raymond from 2 seasons ago really was a gifted player! It's nice to see him start to come back to himself, we could definitely use the scoring punch. :P
