TheWheeler Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Except Pinni also brings hitting, fighting, much better size and versatility to the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I'm really rooting for him, he's had a tough go of it the last few years with all these injuries. Hopefully he can provide this team with a spark. We really need one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dancin'Droid Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 It's great that he is.healthy again and hopefully he can add energy to the fourth line. I wonder if he will play C and if lappy will take 3C? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wshdrvvn Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Funny. Last I checked this team needed scoring and players that can actually make plays. I figured Kassian, Weise, Lapierre, Higgins, Sestito, Hansen, Edler, Garrison, Hamhuis, Bieksa, Alberts, Burrows would have had the size/fighting/hitting aspect covered...

NuckleheadFan Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I can't wait to see him get a chance to get in the line up. When he was picked up, I recall in an interview he showed a lot of confidence that other teams weren't going to take liberties on the Sedins any more.

elvis15 Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Both the Canucks website and NHL.com list him as a RW. He's also called a winger in articles. Do you know if he has center experience before the one game you mentioned? Wonder if the Canucks asked them to try him on center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poetica Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Here is hockeysfuture's scouting report on him from 2008: "Pinizzotto’s game combines great offensive ability and some grit. He can set-up and finish plays. Where Pinizzotto is particularly dangerous is around the net. He can often be found making things happen around the net. He is also quite strong along the boards and in the corners. Pinizzotto is a tough competitor and won’t shy away from the physical aspects of the game. He moves the puck extremely well and possesses nice passing skills. Pinizzotto has a strong shot with a quick release. He is strong on skates and has some good speed but needs to have a quicker first step. Like all young players, adding size and strength to his 6’1 frame will be crucial to Pinizzotto’s future success. " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kesler's Nose Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Sestito - Lappy - Pinizzotto/Weise Looks like some grit and agitation thrown in a nice little bundle, best I've seen the 4th line in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
