Nuklhead Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 What reason would prevent the team from trying Jack with the Sedins with Hansen being out ? Anyone able to explain this ?? Speed and toughness they need and shows good hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroCanuck Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Skille to skate thursday. Can someone please explain to me why Willie would put him into the roster? My thoughts are that if Skille is chosen to go in, Willie is guaranteed fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's scored a vouple clutch solo effort goals for us this season. I swear some of you guys haven't watched more than 5 games this season. I just know it.

But the Canucks have to play the young guys now and not be delusional thinking they're going to win a cup. I swear some people say the most wrongly impulsive things. Skille's an older guy who shows rare flashes of skill. Theres no point putting him in the lineup when you could put in a younger guy that you need to get a good look at. Labate for example.

Skille has been our best fourth liner most nights this year. Based on his play this year I wouldn't be at all surprised if he gets another contract somewhere next year, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So scratch Skille for the rest of the year (even though hes done nothing wrong) and show the league and the world how single minded and selfish the Canucks are an organization? Good luck signing new energy 4 liners in future offseasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know, other than Willie said Skille will be out for a while. It appears to be his ankle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cramarossa Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Suppose this thread begins in "Alumni" now. Happy to hear things are getting off to a good start for him right now. I really liked Skille. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
