Hmm... well I suppose that would be true if we were looking at goals. I would still say Havlat has been much more consistent throughout his career and has put up bigger points. He's had a 70pt. season (77 to be exact, pretty close to 80.) While Vrbata has only accumulated two 60 pt seasons and a 50 pt season. Hasn't broken 50 ever since. Has multiple 50 pt seasons, one 60 pt season and a 70 pt season. Had he stayed healthy, it would be less debatable. 

I will give it to Havlat in this one, as of now Havlat is better point per game in his career than Verby.

Both Sedins are the best players Canucks had ever had in terms of talent (you can argue Bure is better), but they will be in the HOF and it will be a while until the Canucks to find another player to even be close to their calibre again

Yep I corrected myself in the edit. I would even argue that Havlat has had a better career than Vrbata to be honest.

Perhaps 4 out of 6?

Havlat is better early on but Verby is a late boomer, and he is better later on base on stats. This one is a tough one to pick from, both were once All Stars. This one is a tough one.

So was Vrbata right? If we're talking the season before last, we'd have all four!

I just looked up the draftees of that year, I would rank Zetterberg ahead of Radim, but yes we do have 4 of the top 5 players from the 1999 draft

Can't say I disagree. Hurts a bit to acknowledge our three best players are each 35 years old. 

Interestingly, I think we have the 3 best players from the 1999 draft, Miller was a 5th round pick in same draft as the Sedins.

[Burrows? Do We Really Need Him?]

Granted he played well against Arizona but he can thank Smith for that gifted goal and he is still under-achieving given his salary. Don't like him on the PP but he can grind on the 3rd line all he wants because he is good at that and not tough enough for the 4th. I'd love to be wrong about this because he was once much more fearless, much younger, and consequently much better.   

He took a pay cut to stay in Vancouver when he was a 30 goal scorer and makes around 1.2 million per year back then. He deserves his current contract given what he has done over the year as a Canuck. He has a heart of a Canuck and he is still one of the hardest working player on our roster night in and night out.
