TheFleetwoodMack Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Finally every CDC users dream: a big bodied 4th liner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoneypuckOverlord Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 6-5 winger. Decent nhl stats for a 4th line plug. Awesome pick up. Will still miss Volpati, but still. We'll take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottish⑦Canuck Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Well, at least now a good portion of CDC will shut up about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Provost Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Well there goes the belief that Volpatti was sent down to free up a roster space. If we can pick someone else up, it means we sent him down because we thought we could do better. Sestito isn't really much different... bigger version, not a an accomplished fighter though... at least as a heavyweight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ButterBean Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Interesting. Haven't seen many Sestito fights except for the Kassian one where he got worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottish⑦Canuck Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Unfortunately, no. Now begins the great debate on who is better.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonny_Bohonos_14 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Dan Murphy @sportsnetmurph new teammates Tom Sestito and Zack Kassian have a history. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NfuU_bay0kE … Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apple Juice Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 What was the point of waiving Volpatti in the first place then? I do like that Sestito has slightly more offensive skill than Volpatti and I know he can do the job to bang bodies like Volpatti but there really is no difference aside from him being 6'5.

Dion Phaneuf Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Good to see us not replace Volpatti with a midget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuxFan09 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Looks like we replaced Volpatti's toughness. Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger Leighton and Wandell cleared Waivers. Sestito awarded to Van from Phil. Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC VAN claims Sestito. Leighton and Wandell clear News1130 Sports @News1130Sports Just talked with Tom Sestito's agent -he says his client happy to be picked up by Vancouver - sad to leave Philly..

Tanev's Smirk Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Volpatti would win his fights... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Got A Boy Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Canucks Misconduct @nucksmisconduct If wikipedia is to be believed, Sestito scored his first and second NHL goals against both VAN goalies. That GMMG is crafty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
