Sami Salo will outperform Jason Garrison


Swedish Vikings

Recommended Posts

Ohlund, Ehrhoff, Salo, all great players that chased more money than they were worth, good for them. All smart business decisions by Canucks management.

It's gonna be smart come the reckoning of next year. Good luck to most of the good teams next year, when they need to shed 4-6M of cap space in a single year. When we trade luongo, and/or drop ballard raymond malhotra (all fairly redundant players), we will be in good position to pick up someone else and we will be in better position than those teams with 7-9M$ forwards and defensemen.

[sALO UPDATE] As of January 29th. 2013, Salo played 5 games and has 5 assist and 5 points. He's 1 PPG. +9 Rating. TAKE THAT MIKE GILLIS

Salo 0 goals

Garrison 1 goal and 10 years younger.

Unfortunately, for a d-man to get assists, somebody else actually has to score. Something most of our forwards have had trouble doing. Garrison also leads our team in +/-. Not too shabby for the "new" guy. He'll get better as he develops chemistry.

Sami went there to tell Hedman how great Vancouver is!

and as far as Garrison goes,

he wanted to be a Canuck and he took less money to play here, nuff said!

Ah so stats do lie. We have indeed got ourselves a bargain.

How do we go about getting Hedman?

I was sad to see Sami go, one of my favorite Canucks of all time

I like the guy so much that he is in a strange catagory where I find myself happy that he is doing great in Tampa and I only wish the guy the best.

Kinda like when Linden, Bure, Naz, Wellwood, Rycroft and BMO left.

For some reason Burt, Mitchell, and COHO sting me a little different.

I wish those guys the worst

Willie Mitchell left because he wanted to win a Cup and felt Vancouver wasn't the right team for him. Lo and behold, he has his Cup ring....

As for J.Garrison....1 Goal 0 Assist 1 Point +3 and 6 PIM with 8 games played

Garrison is a turnover machine + penalty magnet

Salo= dependable reliable core dman with a shot better or as good as Garrison's shot from the point. + Salo is cheaper

WHY ACQUIRE GARRISON?!?!

Garrison is younger and will continue to play for many years when Salo retires in a year or so

how is 6 PIM's a penalty magnet

Love Salo but at this point Garrison is the better player to have.
