Erik Karlsson Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 When I think of the Sedins I think of the recent game against Detroit, where Franzen is pounding on Daniel, who holds onto his leg like a little child crying to his mother. Is there some reason these grown men can't defend themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggins Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 agreed, if we get bounced in the 1st again i wouldn't mind trading them. these guys just can't play vs physical teams and in the playoffs every team is physical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

africaboombutta Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 How about we keep the Sedin's and trade the OP to another team of whiners...like the leafs. CAN NOBODY SEE THAT THIS TEAM IS NOT WHAT IT WAS IN 2011??!?!?! It is built differently....the sedin's were 100+ players for two seasons...before that they were PPG...after they were PPG....maybe it was the supporting cast that helped them reach the 100+ point mark.... Let me guess...you also thought, with about 90% of the media, that Ovechkin was "over the hill" and his "era" was done...then he scores his 32nd and everybody goes gaga...players play differently under different systems. Accept that. The Sedin's have never played a speed game...they will continue being high caliber players for another 10+ years...similar to whitney, salanne, jagr etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airjasper Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 You guys are ridiculous. 1 game in and the sky is falling. I don't even know why I bother coming to this forum. 90% of the threads are people just crying about one thing or another. My mood goes down every single time I visit this place. Good riddance.

Henrik Kesler Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 This, the twins aren't going to lead us to the cup unless we surround them with a lot more grit. I don't understand why AV won't just leave Kassian with them for more then 1 damn shift. The best shift the twins had last night was when Kassian was with them. He's getting better at cycling with them and he draws lots of Sharks to the front of the net to cover him which leave more room for the twins to work with. Sad AV can't see this, maybe he'll try it when we're down 3-0? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllEyezOnMe Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 No, but when their contracts are up at the end of next season they're going to be making a hell of alot less than 6.1 million a year when we resign them (if we do) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Karlsson Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Yep, and same thing in the Chicago game. Kassian by virtue of his size draws players to him when he has the puck and is pretty good in the cycle game. By being a bigger body than Burrows, Kassian can open up space for the Sedins that Burrows can't, AV just won't let Kassian play with the Sedins for more than one shift. I'd also like to see Kassian be more selfish and lug the puck a bit more than he does, but that will come with time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noheart Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 They are still phisically the same players. Anyone find it to be a little more than a coincidence that the rise and fall of their offensive output came and went with the arrival and departure of Christian Ehroff? Give them the players they need to be successful and they will succeed Shame on all of you. And shame on MG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6string Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 this article has some merit going forward with the sedins. as we watched last night the thornton/marleau combination/era has given way to couture's future and the canucks think tank have to be foreshadowing their future by all posibilities to remain a contender. though i think it may be to soon to write of the sedins now and even into next year but it must be tabled just in case...free up some money, play the market, luongo must be dealt along with ballard and booth!!!

Hockey Fever Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Same thing happened with Markus Naslund, if you look at his numbers he was about 32 years old when they started to go down. Sedin's are now 32 as well, i know it doesn't mean much but just saying...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
