Canucks lines going in to the playoffs.

Against small teams in the playoffs

Sedin-Sedin-Borrows

Higgins-Roy-Kesler

Raymond-Schroeder-Hansen

Kassian-Lapierre-Weise

I kinda dug what Raymond and jordan had going, some nice dishes and sweet plays and

probabaly one of the fastest lines in the league.Av likes to match lines and they could

be a stinger inserted Strategically against slow lines when chances arise.

Sedin-Sedin-Kassian

Higgins-Roy-Hansen

Raymond-Kesler-Burrows

Pinizzotto-Lapierre-Weise

These ones against the bigger teams Kassian,Hansen,burrows give each line attitude

and grit and what can ya say about the 4th line playing against them must me like sliding down a

park slide lined with 50 grit paper.

Booth isn't in the equation right now but of course there is a small chance that might change if we happen to

go deep into the PO's

Doesn't matter what our line ups are, as long as AV is our coach, Canucks will never win the cup with him. He always gets outcoached by the opponents and makes dumb decisions during the playoffs like keeping Luongo in for 7 goals straight.

Here's what I would go with;

Sedin Sedin Burrows

Higgins Kesler Kassian - play them against opposing team's top line

Raymond Roy Hansen

Weise Lappiere Pinnizotto/Sestito

Also, I like the idea of putting Kass on the top unit every once in a while.

D.Sedin - H.Sedin - Kassian

Raymond - Kesler - Hansen

Higgins - Roy - Burrows

Sestito - Lapierre - Weise

A few things: If the Sedins and Kassian aren't really working out, switch Kassian and Burrows. We all know Daniel-Henrik-Burrows is the go to line. Also, don't really like that 4th line. If Booth is healthy, I'd stick him with Lapierre and Weise and if he plays well, promote him.

Sedin-Sedin-Kassian So no one pushes the twins around, line needs some grit

Higgins-Kesler-Burrows Secondary scoring, sound defensively

Raymond-Roy-Hansen Checking line so 2nd line can focus more on offense, could swap roles though

Sestito-Lapierre-Weise Crash, bang and check

sedin - sedin - burrows/kassian

higgins/raymond - roy - kassian/burrows/hansen

raymond/higgins - kesler - hansen/burrows

pinizzotto/sestito - lapierre - weise/kassian

lots of decent options, but not enough depth or high end talent to go far.

the lines i'd start with would be:

sedin-sedin-burrows

higgins-roy-kassian

raymond-kesler-hansen

pinizzotto-lapierre-weise

If Booth is fit, I feel we have to go with a strong speedy team. The bottom 2nd,3rd, and 4th lines will run the legs off the opposition. There is deep scoring in this team and you need that in the playoffs.

Sedin - Sedin - Kassian

Raymond - Kesler - Burrows

Higgins - Roy - Hansen

Booth - Lapierre - Weise/Pinizzotto/Sestito

Hamhuis - Garrison

Bieksa - Edler

Ballard - Tanev

Barker, Alberts, Vandermeer.

Luongo/Schneider
