Plaguez Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Burr gets no respect, shocker. What has Kassian done to be a first line player on any team? Oh, right, forgot, he had a mini run with the Sedins where he scored a few goals. Lets ignore his complete ineptitude in the other two zones, his inability to play consistently even shift to shift and his poor passing. Yeah, much better to put a kid who couldn't carry his weight on the third and fourth lines with the Sedins than the guy who has scored a ton with them.

Langdon Algur Posted July 11, 2013 Author Share Posted July 11, 2013 Bit of a surprise for me on this one, I thought Burrows would take this spot easily. I'll start making the 2nd line LW poll shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alchemy Time Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Yeah I'm gonna vote Kassian, because of Burrows fantastic chemistry with Kesler. I'll nominate Booth for 2nd line LW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodee Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 With Raymond gone we are missing 3 good players in the top 2 lines. You don't just insert Jensen, Kassian, Higgins, Booth, Hansen and hope for the best...................that way lies ruination. It's the reason we do diddly in the playoffs. None of these guys have shown they have what it takes to perform in the regular season never mind the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
higgyfan Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Why some fans give Kass a free pass to the first line, I don' get. So he scores a few goals on a line with the Sedins. Most do. He is nowhere near the player that Burr is (at the moment). The Sedins play better when Burr is in their lineup. Torts may try Kass on that line at some point, but I think it will be short term. I prefer Kass on the second with Booth and Kes or on the third. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFrame14 Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Kassian.. He's big, has good hands and can create space for the twins. Plus he will smash people if they pull a marchand. It's not a free pass to top line like some people have posted. He's gotta get too 6 mins to be effective and his style will mesh better with the sedins then with kesler.

ThaBestPlaceOnEarth Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Burrows does not get enough credit for the Sedins' success. He completes that line, he understands what they want to do out there. He adds a terrific defensive element to an offensively-oriented line, he makes them a two-way line whereas with Kass, as much as I love the kid's game, with him on the Sedin line 5-on-5 they are a defensive liability. With Burrows on that line they are a defensive plus. I am for mixing up who is with the Sedins on the powerplay. By all means have Kassian with them on the powerplay, or anyone else that needs a pick-me-up offensively. But 5-on-5 the standard setup should have Burrows on that line, he is the elusive Sedin winger everyone was clamoring for since the days of Trent Klatt. No need to mess it up now!

aGENT Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Zack will likely start there IMO and it will be between him and Bur on whether he stays there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
