The Dark Knight Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 First and foremost for his career, he needs to be sent down to play with Schroeder Jensen as a top unit on the wolves. Here is why... If Schroeder got sent down for poor play why is Kassian still up? He's younger too I believe. Everyone knows power forwards take longer to develop. Fact his both Schroeder and him aren't good enough yet His development with this team and coaching staff is horrendous with how he's being coached and used. He looks completely lost and useless out on the ice and I have no idea why he doesn't get benched . Let him develop in the AHL because he clearly in over his head at the NHL level right now. He's not physical, weak on the puck, defensive liability and turnover machine. Hardly looks engaged in the game or takes the body consistently. He is lost! From a fan standpoint we shouldn't have to see a player so bad get force fed a roster spot. I feel like the only reason why he's still on the club is because Mike Gillis wants to try an prove to everyone that he traded hodgson for another top prospect/nhler. He's hurting the club, everyone can see this except for the hardcore non critical Canuck fans. Give the roster spot to someone more deserving or make a trade. The organization clearly has no confidence in him by failing to put him in better situations to succeed. Let him develop in the AHL please, anyone can see that he's not a good NHLer right now.

kanucks1 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Unless he is with the Sedins, I agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlurTriX Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Only way we can do that is if we trade for a winger (I believe), but they sure would gain a ton of chemistry down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Magician Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Kassian looks better than Schroeder in the NHL thats why. He also isn't bad with Booth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AppleJack Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 They should put him back with the Sedins it would improve his game 100% and he will be there to protect them. Plus putting Burrows on the 2nd or 3rd line gives more offense to the other lines, its the obvious thing to do, so you know AV won't do it.

Bananas Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 I'd want Kassian sent down because he shouldn't be exposed to the horrible attitude that is obviously present in the Canucks locker room. So yes. Send down Kassian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tokasmoka Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 This is so hilarious. Force feeding this kid minutes because you wouldn't give a better player more icetime. I am sure that size and toughness will come in handy getting a better tee time in the spring. There's fighting in golf right?BTW Cody got a point tonight. Feel free to insert whatever lame excuse to justify this trade again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Knight Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 When was the last time Kassian made a big hit? Let alone hitting consistently? If he's not being a physical force then atleast show some offense. Fact is he's doing neither while being a defensive liability, this is the whole point of this thread.

thad Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 You guys are nuts.. He's playing awesome with booth.. Just wait till kesler gets back those three are going to start racking up points. Flame me all you want but ill hit you back with I told you so's when the seasons over.. This is the best play I've seen from those 2 since they've been here. They're both skating and hitting like crazy, playin mean. This is our new second line. Get used to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Stamkos Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 People keep complaining about Booth and Kassian but they've been the least of our problems lately.. Sure they haven't been able to put the puck in lately but they have been skating and getting chances. Why these two haven't even been tried on the power play the past few games is a mystery to me.
