PhillipBlunt Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 If Torts actually gave Kassian a few games with the Sedins we could have a top 6 Sedins-Kassian Burr-Kesler-Santorelli Higgins-Richardson-Hansen Nothing is going to come out of Hansen playing with the Sedins so might as well try Kassian who can make passes and doesn't have stone hands Hansen should be looked at as tradebait after the freeze is done and before his new contract kicks in.

Daretodream Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 im tired of this "twins need a linemate" alot of great players have been stranded with 2 sub par players on their line... look at what rick nash had in columbus...a first line that had him and 2 3rd liners with him... the guy still put up big numbers.... the sedins are 2/3rds of the line..... if they are elite players they shouldnt need a 3rd to make difference.... but thats where they are today as players neither of them want to shoot ... the creativity is gone and they look like they did before they broke out as superstars and thats just a ton of plays along the boards and minimal chances going towards the net... the odd time they make a pass or play that makes you think they are back but it doesnt last....for the most part they look like they are waiting for other lines to draw a penalty so they can eat up most of the PP time. I couldn't agree more! Our pp looks horrible, and they're both on it 80% or more of the time. 5/5 they look slow, and the other teams first line outplays them practically every game. I'm tired of hearing how its Hansen or burrows fault all the time. Last night we noticed seguin and Benn the whole game and against Minny, it was all parise and koivu; tonight its all kane...where are the bloody twins?

DIBdaQUIB Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 The Twins are brutal tonight. No pace, zero creativity, all board play. They need someone other than Hansen on that line. They need a skating coach! so slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kassquatchian Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 yeah well you need to have the puck on your stick , be in a shooting position, and have the shot actually hit the net not go wide or get blocked for a shot to be recorded.... so when your rarely in a position to shoot the puck and most of your shots are blocked and go wide you usually have a pretty good shooting % Guys like booth and hansen and santorelli are within 10 shots reach. Not that bad. Most goals ont the team as a rw this year playing 3rdand 4th line minutes. This kid is going to be a force Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbdoubleu Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 In a tough spot going into the 3rd down a goal here. If the Canucks are too patient waiting for chances they might not get one.. open er up and the Hawks blow it open. Need a greasy one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RunningWild Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 These last losses have been on he coaching staff. Not sure what they're thinking. Hansen with the twins is a disaster. The twins played too many mins this season and we're seeing the long term consequences. Kassian, short of 1 game, has been playing his best hockey of the season and is still playing on the 34rd/4th line. None of it makes sense.

I understand they want him to be able to play defense against top offensive players, but he's never to learn how if he's never given a chance. I'd rather see Dalpe get a look with the Sedins than more of this nonsense with Hansen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
