EternalCanuckFan Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Pahlsson's looked really solid and he has unexpectedly provided some offense (and not just second assists off of shots on net - the pass tonight and his behind the back pass in the last game against the Avs show that he has some flare in the offensive zone). It's also very clear that he's extremely strong. He ties guys up along the boards like nobody's business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsayin Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Sadly. I follow the Panthers, as they're my second favourite team, and Mikael impresses every night. He's healthy now and will be a key piece of Florida's playoff run. Samuelsson > Raymond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van_City123 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Pahlsson is going to be a HUGE part of our playoff run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Aerosex Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I've been hyped about him since we traded for him...like I've said before, you can't not love the guy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VancouverStyle Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 He sure has been a wonderful addition to the Canucks line up. He is doing exactly what he was brought in to do for the team. I, like many of you can't wait to see how he performs in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nucklehead53 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Pahlsson seems like a great utility/defensive guy. Seems like AV has full confidence in his defensive zone abilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Socrates Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Pahlson Kassian and MAG for Cody Hodgson. Seems like a good deal to me... and no... I know he wasn't a part of the trade, but with Cody gone, it opened the spot for Pahlson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zamboni Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 is that since trade or over the season because since trade i'd say pahlson has been better overall than coho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilya Mikheyev Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 It's what I've said since the trade. The guy is so damn strong along the boards he barely ever loses a battle & in the playoffs when the games get a bit more grindy it'll be even more noticeable. There's a reason he's made it to the finals twice and the conference finals once out of four playoff appearances. Plus, he has untapped offensive potential (which he showed pre-NHL and lockout) which comes in handy when having him in situations like the goal against Colorado tonight - imagine if that was stonehands Josh Green or Ryan Johnson instead..

Canucksftw0205 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Good at winning faceoffs and pitching in for assists here and there. He's doing so many things right, you can't help but notice him. I'm not an avid observer of the game and I don't pick up on a lot of things that more experienced fans do, but I'm certainly pleased to have him as part of the team. The third line is clicking so well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VektirDo Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 since trade C. Hodgson is 0.4667 PPG, -2 S. Pahlsson is 0.3571 PPG, +5 first post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Best of all, he knows how to throw big hits. For some reason he finishes his hits a lot more than other guys and they look painful, similar to Edler's hits. Can't wait for him to really shine in the playoffs. What disappoints me is that Pahlsson is out-playing Kassian right now. If we kept Hodgson, we would have had a gritty bottom-6 with Pahlsson and plenty of skill and talent as well.

Bar_Down16 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 He's been a great pick up for us. Loving his play! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needtogetswole Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 it's funny - half of the board was complaining about samme not being himself because he's gotten older - the older you get the wiser you get - he may not be as fast but he's one smart player... he's going to be 1000x more effective then cody hodgson would have been in the playoffs - quote me if you'd like.
