TheCammer Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 I love how when the Canucks sign some player I have barely heard of I come to these boards and see unbridled enthusiasm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombieksa Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Sedin-Sedin-Kassian (assumed with Torts comments on Kes/Burr) Higgins-Kesler-Burrows (Higgins and Kes play really well together IMO, Burr and Kes obviously have chem.) Booth-Santorelli-Hansen (Booth-Santorelli have played together in the past, assume this is how we start) Lain-Richardson-Weise (Good to have additional center in lineup, Lain is the likely 4th line Candidate, Weise assumed to re-sign) Sestito Hamhuis-Bieksa (We know it worked in the past) Edler-Tanev (Tanev has the defensive abilities Edler doesn't have, Edler has the size that Tanev doesn't) Garrison-Kostka (My choice of next signing, not signing with Toronto, can play 20 mins. a game if need be) Alberts-Weber ( Hoping AHLberts re-signs, he knew his role, Weber allows Corrado to handle #1 D in AHL for season) Lu Lack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BananaMash Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Santorelli could be a good reclamation project. The face-off ability is still there, he's just sort of fallen off offensively. Maybe he still has the talent and the team can bring it out of him. If not, probably a better 13th guy than Ebbett was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Carell Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 I see Xxx Santi Richie Splitting draws. Energy, speed, richie hitting. Xxx could be Hansen or booth or sesito or Weise or.... Booth has familiarity with him. 3c I think is going to be Gaunce or Schroeder at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRussianRocket. Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Some added center depth and good at shoot outs. Can't complain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Specter Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Like this depth signing. His FO numbers look good and well worth the reclamation project playing as a bottom-6 centre or winger. Worked well with Booth in his Florida days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BananaMash Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 I've considered that but Gillis also said he wanted to give Richardson a larger role, and Richardson himself said he could produce a lot more if given such a role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glov10 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 I really think that since Gillis isnt going for big signings, he wants 2 out of the 3 of Gaunce, Schroeder, or Jensen in the lineup for next year. Don't be surprised if our line up looks something like this in October. Sedin-sedin-kassian Booth-kesler-burrows Higgins-Gaunce-Jensen Richardson-santorelli-Hansen Weise, sestito Hamhuis-Bieksa Garrison-Tanev Edler-corrado Weber Luongo Lack Good mix of youth, speed, and grit. Maybe a few more depth dman would be nice, but im excited to see some youth in the line up, havnt seen some since Kesler and Burrows first joined the team.

CB007 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Kosta would arguably be cheaper, plus he has mad flow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canada Hockey Place Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Nice. I like this signing too. Depends on term of course but I can't see it being more than Richardson. Probably closer to Sestito. Even if he doesn't make the opening roster (which I hope he does), he'd still be a great #1C for Utica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamJamIam Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Dat centre depth. Genuinely surprised we got Santorelli. He was on more than a few people's wish lists because he has proven he can produce at the NHL level (doesn't just have "upside"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
