Just a difference in growing up. If someone said like that to me back in the day then I would have handled it with him man to man then just let it go. There are many people who have said racist things to me over the years that is wrong but as much as that is morally wrong. It is also morally wrong for me to try to ruin someone's life over it.

As much as you want to teach the younger players what not to do, you don't want them to think that the organization will bury him either.

If he's going to the AHL, I would rather they do to him the same as they did with Gagner and loan him to another team.

He has already shown he's bitter with his icetime in the off season. He's played like he doesn't care anymore. The games he has played in looks like he is just showing up for a paycheck. Most players, when they come off the press box has an extra step in their game to show that they belong. Has Eriksson done that? And that's with him still in the NHL. If he gets to the AHL, I just don't see him working his but off to get back into the NHL. Now if you are a young player seeing a six million dollar player floating around you don't think that it's going to cause an affect?

wait till he gets waived

Yeah, No. The pairing of Edler and Myers is one of the best defensive combo I have seen in Vancouver in a long time. THat and he plays an entirely different role to Eriksson so you can't really compare. One is defence and the other is a forward. Also if you were an opponent who is thinking of running Boeser or Petey, who would make you reconsider Eriksson or Myers.

I would not want Eriksson anywhere near our young players right now. A bitter 6 million dollar player playing with our impressionable young players? I would rather have him eating nachos in the pressbox.

Does Bo have it in him to be a "Linden Type" Leader?
smokes replied to EdgarM's topic in Canucks Talk
No, Linden was the better player period. Right now, Given everything Bo has done at his age and what Linden did at the same age, the comparison isn't even fair. Better stats and he was already the captain. If Bo can captain the Canucks to a Stanley cup then we can circle back to it. But as of right now, maybe the status of a Naslund. -
I am also sure that they would but to me it's not about that. It's about the attitude. People have the freedom to participate and not participate that's true but can there be something that can bring people together. The people who have been here for while with the people who have not? From what I have seen a vast majority of people who come here from other countries end up conglomerating with other people who come from the same parts of the world and stay within those social circles. If you immigrate to Canada, great! Glad to have you, now let's celebrate together and mourn together.
