TimberWolf Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 What a stupid post. Piss poor effort? Vancouver has outplayed Calgary this series so far. They are not showing a poor effort at all, stop basing effort on results. Just like i will try not to base your intelligence on this one post.... And to think, if no one bumped this thread I would have never seen this little ball of e-thug directed at me. Yeah, Vancouver sure outplayed the crap out of Calgary. Guess I didn't know what I was on about there. Silly me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWMc1 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Benning called 2 teams about Kassian on top of the 6 that called him. I think it is possible that at least one of those teams wanted to wait to see where they wound up in the draft before committing to a trade. It is possible that Kassian is traded for a big center. I like Kassian, but certain attention to details comments were made by Benning, Linden, and Desjardin during the Kassian debates. I didn't want start a thread, so I bumped.

WHL rocks Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Its pretty safe to assume Kassian will be traded. Benning wanted Seguin gone from Boston because he didn't want to "baby sit" the player due to off ice issues. Kass loves skiing too much. Benning not the type of GM who would let that slide.

Has anyone have any news on Kassian ? Zack Kassian is playing like a beast right now. We need a player like him badly here. Prust was a bust. I understand the path he needed to get to this point, but man I'd sure like to watch that at the garage in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-NucksFan Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Watching this was depressing, I miss Play off hockey and yes Kassian was a beast, happy for him he's come a long way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xereau Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Super happy for Zack, he deserves everything. I feel management gave up far too early, and kicked someone in need of help to the curb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingofsurrey Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Garbage trade by Benning. Kass would have been a great addition on our team . Prust was damaged goods when we got him. .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elvis15 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 It was one goal in one game. Sure, he made some hits too, but Kass is the same argument as Grabner. Each went through a rock bottom after they were traded to a new team and only then found their games. We had nothing left of value in him at the time we moved him and he was not a positive in the locker room in his state at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pomorick Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Bull$&!#! With Mattias, Kassian and Richardson as a third line we had over 100 points and made the playoffs. With them gone we finished 28th and 29th. Those are facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel management gave up far too early, and kicked someone in need of help to the curb. It's called tough love. People with addictions (I am one so do have personal experience) need to face the consequences of their actions. We have no idea what was offered to Zach here, but the sequence of events since getting traded forced him to take responsibility for himself and his addictions and now he is doing great. Wish he would have done it here, but I am just glad for him that he's done it at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet Montreal put him through waivers.....without ever playing a game for them. That deal was a 5th for Prust if you take Kassian off our hands. He had no value.

The fact Kassian went to Montreal and carried on party boy as usual after rehab here tells me he wouldn't have straightened out here. He needed to be traded, another stint in rehab, clear waivers, and be traded for a cap dump for it to finally hit home he needed to straighten out or be washed up at 25.
