Soren5556 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 So with Jensen's season finishing with AIK and assuming they don't make the play offs there is a good chance Jensen will end up on the Wolves but I think there is an equally good chance he might end up on the Canucks too. I think the regular season for the SEL ends around March 5th and Gillis already said Jensen will be coming to the wolves at the very least so with Kesler now out and Volpatti being sent down to the wolves what are the chance Jensen might join the Canucks over the Wolves. I know the Canucks were playing well before Kesler came back so some people might think him being gone is what might get us out of this funk the team is in but Jensen has the potential to be a top 6 forward and I think playing him along with Schroeder would give us a great second line substitute. So I've made my opinion, what do you guys think? I'm also aware of the likelihood that Pinizotto will replace Volpatti but I think Jensen could be a better replacement. Edit: I thought I'd include his stats and point out the SEL doesn't count secondary assists like the NHL so his point total isn't too definitive of what he could do. He is 4th on his team in scoring. 16 Goals 6 Assists 22 points 47 GP -12 +/- 17 hits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyzer Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Doesn't look ready for the big club, but he might come up next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Killer Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Sometimes you don't know a player is ready until you take the chance. I say they should bring him up to the main roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danthecanucksfan Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Definitly won't be this year, especially if AV has anything to say about it. He isn't going to fit into our roster this year anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tystick Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 AHL definitely, we don't need him right now, unless of course an injury occurs. Next year for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pears Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Why not see what he can do for say, 7 games? Sedin - Sedin - Burrows Jensen - Schroeder - Kassian Raymond - Lapierre - Booth Higgins - Pinizzotto - Hansen Changes can be made but I would like to see how a Jensen - Schroeder - Kassian line would do.

forklift_ole Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 With Kesler out you can move Higgins to center and open up a spot on the wing. That being said, I think he needs to play some games with the Wolves before AV considers putting him into the roster this year. Still, there's a good chance he gets some games to see what he can do.

Sedin - Sedin - Burrows Jensen - Schroeder - Kassian Raymond - Lapierre - Hansen Weise - Pinizzotto - Ebbett I know I'm forgetting someone other than Kesler who won't be back till April or late March. But other than that that top nine looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JensenFan2011 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 realisticly he will join the AHL until MG does his moves at the deadline. Jensens play will determine if MG makes a move to open him a spot or not. So Don't expect Jensen on the canucks until atleast after the trade deadline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik Karlsson Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I would like to see him up here, I think he would be perfect with the twins. He can snipe from anywhere, and he's really good in front of the net. Sedin-Sedin-Jensen Burrows-Kesler-Booth Kassian/Higgins-Schroeder-Hansen Kassian/Higgins-Lapierre-Weise I still think Kassian should try left wing, he seems to have a lot of trouble breaking out of his zone on the right side, I know when I played hockey I liked breaking out on the left side better and I'm a right handed shot, always was a lot easier for me for some reason. It would also be easier for him to try and power to the net on the left side, just my opinion though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OntarioCanucker Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 A Jensen-Schreoder-Kassian line is something that I would like to see, but maybe be cultivated (or should have been) on the wolves. It's no WCE, but maybe 2.0 version. Jensen snipes, Schreoder speeds and Kassian sizes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
