My opinion would be that he’s bigger and can play lower down the lineup if needed. But that’s just my opinion...If this happens I doubt it’s an easy decision for management 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeManifesto Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Baertschi played so well in pre season and has been awesome for us before the cheap head shots he took. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem with Baertschi is that he isn’t a good fit on the bottom 6. Yes - he had chemistry with Gaudette (Who is slated to be the 3rd line C), but a combination of Baertschi and Gaudette would have too many shortcomings for a 3rd line. I’m not the biggest fan of Eriksson, but he can be used in both a top 6 and a bottom 6 role, not to mention both wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree completely but we don’t save enough salary sending LE down. The fact also remains that if we ever want to have a chance at trading LE for even peanuts....we need to at least show he has NHL value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baertschi/Gaudette Baertschi/Horvat really gives good options. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Hindustan Smyl Posted September 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 30, 2019 2 minutes ago, Dazzle said: Totally serious. Do you think the Canucks were convinced with last season's play? Pearson showed very good chemistry with Horvat last year. Just as good as Baertschi did with Horvat. Unlike Baertschi however, Pearson has grit and is quite sound defensively. Due to this, Pearson can play on both the top 6 and also the 3rd line. Baertschi is pretty much useless on the bottom 6. I agree that Baertschi is a better hockey player than Goldobin, and is more deserving to be here, but the cap hit is obviously a huge determining factor. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post flat land fish Posted September 30, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 30, 2019 I think the team is concerned with Sven’s concussion history, good chance he is one hit from being out of the league , if we waive someone else lose them and then lose Sven 3 weeks from now it’s a double whammy 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schaller showed excellent chemistry with Beagle and Motte. Schaller seems like a different player this camp, and that 4th Line is exactly the type of 4th line that you’d want on a team. Pearson’s chemistry with Horvat is as every bit as good as Baertschi’s. Baertschi and Gaudette have good chemistry, but that pairing is not ideally suited for a 3rd line (ie defensively questionable, lack of grit, etc). 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol remember when Leipsic showed great chemistry with Boeser and Bo those 10-15 games near the end of the season. Where is he now? A lot of players perform well first 10-20 games when they are traded. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from a dismal first 2/3’s of the season last year, Pearson has consistently been a very good 2nd line player. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
