Kesler looking to return tomorrow

Is anyone else projecting a Syd Crosby Return? :bigblush:

Seriously though; we have not seen the best of Ryan Kesler since he got hurt against San Jose. Might take a few games, but I've been waiting a long time for the real Ryan Kesler to come back!

What a great highlight goal! But again, seriously, RK's value is that he is our best overall athlete who has hockey skills. Yes Hank & Dank have to be the most talented. Booth is probably the single best athletic specimen. But at 207 lbs Kesler plays like a bull above his weight class, and his work rate wears out opposing players. Then he still has the durability and skills to make teams pay. What this does is draws match ups, as it takes a certain amount of speed and size to play against RK17. And he eliminates many offensive threats as he is also is amongst the top 3 or 5 defensive forwards in the game. He provides room and space for all other Canucks.

If he's healthy; we just got a whole lotta better!

:towel:

Kes will make the decision,himself.At least that is what the .org has reiterated so let's see what Ryan says.

Sorry for Manny.TSN reporting he does not want to retire.

Forced retirement sucks when the big boss needs those dollars for another signing.

Sedin - Sedin - Kassian

Burrows - Kesler - Higgins

Raymond - Schroeder - Hansen

Weise - Lapierre - Volpatti

Kassian > Burrows in every sense of the game right now. He's bigger, tougher, stands up for the twins better and is showing he has better hands and more skill than Burrows too.
