Your New Coach Mr. Tippett Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 To be perfectly honest, Torres is the prototypical douchebag... I honestly don't think he gives a crap come playoff time lol 24 pts in 56 playoff games say Hi. And stop saying honest, Son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avicii Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Pretty sure he was talking about if Torres would think if a hit is clean or not. Torres would still make the hit even if its dirty because he doesn't care. Is what he meant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Your New Coach Mr. Tippett Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 My bad. I would pick up Torres even if it meant a borderline clean hit knocked out an opposing team's top line forward or top pairing Dman and got suspended for the rest of the playoffs. Like Rome-ish. But without the BS about that hit 'waking up' the opposing team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your New Coach Mr. Tippett Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I was praised (and yelled at for being a "typical Nuck fan") when I suggested shooting AT Chara when the Nuck PP in the finals was being brutal. Not necessarily to 'hurt' him (good side effect though) but to perhaps ding him up a bit and create some room in front of Thomas. Make him think a little.

Drouin Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I wouldn't pay more than a mid-late round draft pick. But while acquiring him, why not also get defenceman D. Morris from PHX? Right-hand shot, he's on the market cause the 'Yotes are sellers. Maybe Ballard and 4th for Torres and Morris? Addresses our needs then we will still be able to trade for Luo and maybe get another 2nd/3rd liner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easton76 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Has anyone recently said that the Canucks are interested in Torres? Wouldn't mind having him back for a third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swedish_elite_4_life Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Oh, Raffi. I miss seeing you storming across the ice to flatten someone into the boards with hits that were borderline charging <3 He was a good pest that could add some critical points, and I feel like Lapierre hasn't been as physical lately. We could actually use someone like Torres. I've personally always been for having guys that can fill that role like Burrows and Kesler used to, and Cooke and Ruutu in years past. So long as he draws more penalties than attracts.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vintage Canuck- Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I would LOVE to have Torres back on this team. Come on MG! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoosh Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 If he is obtained for something like a 4th, then ok, but no point in giving up more than that. But I doubt he will be had for that anyways... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Here's our lineup all healthy, potentially to start the playoffs: Sedin - Sedin - Burrows Raymond - Kesler - Hansen Higgins - Roy - Booth Kassian - Lapierre - Torres Great 1st line. Speedy 2nd line with a couple of 20-goal scorers and Kesler. Gritty forechecking 3rd line, Higgins and Booth are great hitters come playoff time and score hard-nosed goals. Hard hitting 4th line, all forwards can hit and have sweet hands as well. Each line has an identity and finally we have great depth down the middle and on the wing. Gives us a lot of versatility - any winger can play on any line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
