  1. I take full responsibility for Burrows' play over the past five games. I started trumpeting his "return" to 2011 form by proclaiming him the best player on the ice vs. Columbus and New Jersey. This is after beating the "trade Burrows" drum all summer/fall. I should know better because the minute I start talking positively about any player, it's the kiss of death for them. So to all Canuck fans and Burrows, my apologies for being the reason why Burrows has fallen off the cliff the past five games.
  2. A nasty Brendan Gaunce clocking in at 6'2" 210 lbs. to go along with his defensive awareness and 200' game would be a welcomed addition to the Canucks/Comets.
  3. How about Burrows for Nathan Beaulieu? Habs could probably use Burrows and Beaulieu could very well be the decent prospect on the back end that we may be looking for. And the Habs may be one team that Burrows would waive his NTC to. IMO, there's enough depth on the Canucks to move Burrows at this stage, and to boot, Burrows has done enough to re-establish some trade value for the Canucks.
  4. Dare I say it? Horvat has arrived. All it took was one goal and now, the floodgates are about to be opened up. The man-child does so many things so well. Plays a mature, seasoned, professional, disciplined game...he's making it tough on JB and WD to send him back to the O. Other than the turnover in the neutral zone against Ottawa when he tried to dangle (? can't remember if this was the game), he hasn't made a noticeable mistake. The age of Bo has arrived in Vancouver.
  5. Conclusion: anything is possible.
  6. No sweat, Nazzy...hope McEneny goes back to Kingston and dominates as a 20 year old. IMO, I think another year of junior will be good for McEneny. He looked lost at the YS tourney (the little I saw) and the YS tourney is just a step above junior A exhibition games.
  7. Kid's got a late b-day (turned 20 in late May) and he's been in the O for four seasons. Could easily be sent back to the O as an over-ager, though I think you're right about where he'll be assigned. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets assigned by the Comet to the 'zoo. Comets D: Huskins -- Biega Andersonn -- Corrado Negrin -- Sanguinetti Tommernes -- Lafranchise 'zoo D: McEneny -- Blain Humphries EDIT: Looks like McEneny is heading back to juniors...http://vansunsportsblogs.com/2014/09/22/camp-cuts-mceneny-pettit-stewart-sent-back-to-junior/
  8. Based on the little I saw of the YS tourney, I'd say he could use another year of junior...so a year as an over-ager would be a good option. I see that McEneny is not on a sliding scale anymore...does that mean his contract is counted against the 50 max and that even though he's back in junior that one year gets burned off his elc? Anyone have an answer?
  9. Curt Ridley...mask revived by Luongo.
  10. Beg to differ. Pit Martin wore one of those round Northland or Lange helmets. The same kind made famous by Denis Potvin.
