Master Mind Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I thought Sundin was a good influence on Kesler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoTheDistance Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 I wonder what the OPs opinion was when we beat CHI in the Playoffs. Wonder if Gillis was GOD in his eyes. Bet he would have given Bieksa his first born when we went to the SCF! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 when you think about it, the Canucks team that made it to the finals in 2011 was almost entirely built by Burke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex the Great Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 All I really got from that was you saying Bieksa is one of the worst all time defencemen to ever play for the Canucks.... Look buddy, shut up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuel Påhlsson Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Lets bring back Dan Cloutier as our starter too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Boudreau Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Yeah this guy's right we all know Gillis worst move of his tenure was letting #1 d-man Aaron Rome go. He was clearly the reason why the Canucks were rock solid. His versatility was second to none. Also bring back Sammy Pahlsson and Tanner Glass. This team is a bunch of pansies yeah!!!

The Kassassin Train Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 And I thought I was freaking out. Bieska gets to much hate around here. Edler doesn't get enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertuzz Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 I'm the OP, and sorry if I offended anyone, There's some interesting points some of you have bought up, but I mostly stand by what I said. The players Gillis has bought in are for the most part average NHLers, and every year in the playoffs, experience and toughness count. Gillis has done nothing to improve that area. As far as secondary scoring, why doesn't he try for Arnott, or he could have tried for Jagr-imagine him with the Sedins? Oh-but Gillis would say "he's too old or he has too much experience!" All I'm saying is if you put a bunch of greenhorns on the ice, that's the product you're going to get. The team needs a mix of veterans and rookies. It would have been nice to keep guys like Jovo and Ohlund, or Willie Mitchell but what's done is done. The Canucks really need to fix the D-get rid of Bieksa and Alberts and get some experienced players who don't make you whince when they have the puck!

The Kassassin Train Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Remember when everyone wanted JBo and he got traded to CGY? Remember how everyone said MG sucked? Imagine if he did. Thank God. CDC would have exploded by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the grinder Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 ohlund got a hefty contract from tampa bay just like salo did , , willie mitchell wanted way too much to play here mike gillis made the smart move by not resigning or overpaying , and beside ohlund prolly wont ever play again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rawkdrummer Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 The OP is a troll... Don't feed the troll! as far as Burke goes??? What an ass (I'm Irish so it's OK), yeah that's what we need. I believe in Gillis and his plan to be on the cutting edge. I've also a longtime fan and have watched (or listened on the radio) the Canucks since the old Western hockey league days. Hey OP, can you say Portland Buckaroos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
