  1. I should have been more clear in my post. Watching the game and seeing the hit my first impressions were: direct headshot to a player in a vulnerable position. . But seeing it again im not convinced the head was targeted or was the initial point of contact. Was he vulnerable? Yes. Was there contact to the head? Yes. I also feel there was some responsibility of Burr to be more aware in that situation. And this may sound crazy to some here but im not so sure that burrs change in head direction before his body wasnt a result of the body's natural instinct/reaction to turn away from an impact. My post probably sounds worse to you now but its just my take. FuRther to my second point; the non response by the team with the score in hand was disappointing and inexcusable. Burr has the back of every mate, every time.
  2. Imo the head contact was incidental and im ok with it in a league where discipline is consistent. ...which doesnt seem to be a part of the nhl. Im not ok with us going up 5-1 and nobody tuning up Nino.
  3. Lol Right.Because their physicality and ability to roll four lines, depth at centre, depth in scoring, the performances of doughty voynov andgreen, and coaching had nothing to do with it.
  4. Agreed. You would hope pride and respect is a greater motivator than job security.
  5. If only we could play offensively and defensively simultaneously
  6. Great effort boys! Love the dangle school by hank behind the net there
  7. At this juncture, imo, its fair to say, we are more than a depth centre and pmd away from contention. Lol
  8. I watched lu let in four in the third period last night....still waiting for the snappy tweet though.
  9. Wonder if the top line could score from center?....theyd have to shoot first though.
  10. Turn in your jersey if you mail it in tonight and lose to calgary with a whimper.
  11. Im watching the Panthers vs Sabres...a clash between two of the canucks most polarizing players... Lu has a slick mask on. I must say.
  12. Lol at hindsight we need raymond now bs. He had his chance here. Good riddance. Santo over that perimiter deadweight all day every day.
  13. Good point...if I checked out mentally at work like that id potentially end up maimed or dead.
  14. Injuries aside that theory contradicts the play time minutes of the top line and kesler this year.
  15. I See 18mil per and four plus a no movement clause in his future.
  16. Welcome to Vancouver Matthias. Your ntc awaits.
