Canuck_in_AB Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 If we were just talking "in general" I'd say Higgins (heck, his name has half of the name of a particle they're looking for at CERN!)(yes, Higgs). But yeah I thought about it for a while, and while the name Burrows is tempting to throw out there, I'll have to say Hamhuis. It's not all about points.

Ghostsof1915 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Kellan Lain. He signed with the Canucks out of college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kesler's Nose Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I'll go with Lu and Bieksa, both are very sharp and quick with their words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Hamhuis among defenders, Hank among forwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrik Kesler Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Hank and Danny for forwards. You don't put up consistent PPG stats over a number of years without being very 'hockey smart,' especially when you can't use speed to create offensive chances. Hamhuis for defenders. Doesn't have the above average size of a Weber or Chara, but he always knows where to be and almost always makes the right read on the play.

Duds Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Daniel or Burrows. I'm curious why people are saying Henrik over Daniel... They both have Jedi-like passing smarts but Daniel also knows when to finish the play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IginlaFan 2013 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I cant remember which game, or against who, but i remember one time Kesler stole the puck from behind the opponents net just by tapping his stick and calling the opposing defenceman's name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Mind Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Hockey IQ? Gotta be the Sedins. No one in the league can make the passing plays they do. As for defenders, I'd say Hamhuis overall, even though Edler has the best when it comes to offence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nazzybertjovo Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Hanks offensive IQ and ability to see plays develop in advance is unmatched. He is hockey's version of Steve Nash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

galiano Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 No kidding. Glad that idiot has gone to ruin another team. As for the original question, I think it has to be Burrows based on how he adapts so easily to whatever role he's asked to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drouin Posted August 18, 2013 Author Share Posted August 18, 2013 What are you talking about ? AV is the winningest coach in Canuck history - by far. It was time for him to be replaced but he is a former coach of the year winner and he certainly didn't "ruin" the Canucks. Maybe you should do a little research before you mouth off. Look it up.

Absent Canuck Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 He also coached arguably the best team we've ever iced. Of course you'll have a winning record with a team like ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
