Hi,
I'm new to ice hockey and I'm in the process of purchasing new gear.
Question about hockey pants,
I'm 6ft tall and about a 30" waist, according to the sizing charts I should be M for length but a size small for waist.
I was wondering for hockey pants like the QR Edge that has the 1" extension in size small would make it long enough for me or should I be sizing up to a Medium?

Could turn out to be a solid shutdown defensemen for the Canucks.

The management probably wanted to talk to Virtanen and let him know what they want him to improve on if he wants to crack into the lineup next season.
-
Matthias is really impressive so far. Him and Booth line combo has made Booth more visible on the ice too! Jensen has also looked very good, liking him a lot and hope he sticks around for the rest of the year.

My bet is he is being traded. There is no way the Canucks could be this classless. It's not like Lack is leaps and bounds better than Lu and Lu has been playing poorly.
Love him or not, Lu is arguably the best goalie in Canucks history and I fail to believe an organization can be this stupid and classless. I can sit through a rebuild or a team that doesn't score but combine that with classless I may hurt my ankle jumping off the wagon.
Something has to be up....
I agree with you. I can't think that Tortorella would be this classless to not play a goaltender like Luongo at the Canucks Heritage Classic. Gillis probably had a talk with Tortorella and said something like sit Luongo until the deadline because we're going to try and move him or something along those lines.
In my view, it makes complete sense. If we can get a decent package in return for Luongo that helps us, we should do it. We all already know that the damage in the relationship between Canucks organization and Luongo has already been done and I think in Luongo's mind, he would prefer to not be here anymore.

damn. You've really proven why AV was smarter to keep the Sedins at Offense only. Let them focus on what we need them to do.
Well good players in this league play in all situations and help the team out in all parts of the game. I believe that this is just an off year for the Sedins as they are still adapting to the new style of play brought along with the new coaching staff.
Sedins will work hard and adapt to the Torts' system and then when they become comfortable with it, the offense will come. Right now they are focused on Torts' new system and playing the game he wants them to play, once they get used to it and it's in the back of their minds, I think the offense will come. As smart as the Sedins are, they will overcome their offensive struggles especially with Burrows back who suits them well.

RIP Kassian.
Right, I totally forgot about him!

If Canucks trade for O'Rielly straight up for Edler and then make a seperate trade to acquire Steve Ott.
Next years possible lineup:
Sedin - Sedin - Burrows
Higgins - O'Rielly - Kesler
Ott - Horvat - Hansen
Sestito - Richardson - Santorelli/Lain
Hamhuis - Tanev
Garrison - Bieksa
Stanton - Corrado
We would be really deep in the center position with Henrik, Kesler, O'Rielly, Ott, Horvat, Richardson, Santorelli.
Kesler will finally have a legitimate young top-six forward to play with him. Horvat would run the 3rd line and he will be mentored by Kesler and O'Rielly throughout the season. Ott would provide that grit and toughness on that checking line.
Or Imagine, O'Rielly - Horvat - Kesler as a shutdown line, that would be one heck of a line to try and create offense against.
-
Maybe it's not the money issue that's the hold up and rather the term of his next contract. Gillis may be wanting a longer term like 3 or 4 years and Tanev could be seeking 1 or 2 years max.
-
I just hope that AV will give Kassian the opportunity to play in the top-six and not just plug him in on the 4th line because he's got the skills and talent to be a top-six power-forward.

Winter is one of my favorite seasons, I actually love snow. Last year when they said that it's going to be a horrible winter for us and with a lot of snow, and it turns out to be a rainy winter ..it was very disappointing. I hope there's a lot of snow this year, snow cheers me up. GO WINTER!
-
I love snow, but last year it snowed hard around evening but over night it was all gone cause it rained. Hopefully we get more snow this year.
