someone give Willie a pat on his back for simply screwing up Baerstchi's confidence level. LOL well done Willie, because Baerstchi wasn't playing so bad in the start of the season. Baerstchi seems like he is done lol Benning made a blunder move that made our rival land Dougie Hamilton wow. one thing I do have to say, how could it be Baerstchi was lights out in the ahl, Green turned him into a skilled player, remember him in the game against the Oilers! it was still a impressive performance, and even in the playoffs he had chances, THANK YOU WILLIE for screwing up this kids confidence, keep playing Higgins 2 points in 11 games yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! more grinders!

Agreed. Higgins is useless and terrible and shouldn't be playing over Baer. Bush league coach.

im surprised Bartkowski gets so much hate on these boards. Hes probably been our best puck moving D-man . Every game he is able to take the puck from our own end and lead the rush into the opposing teams end.

His speed is great and he can dangle up ice. Not too great in his own end but he at least play physical.

Boy the Stars are fast. Nice we went toe to toe but they are so much better. They do seems to be the NHL darlings though. Yes we had a ton of PPs and probably did not deserve to win but this team does not need favours from the refs. The Edler missed call was blatant, as well the Higgins take down. their strategy must be "eventually the refs will stop calling because PPs are not even" lop sided. Then the make up calls come in the second where it's so much harder to change.

I'll take the point and do the same in CA guys. But please bring some hits.  Put Vert and Pedan in, Bear and Webber out.

Please don't make me cry...just thinking about Weber being our PP specialist makes me want to cry.  I have one Christmas wish...and that is for Weber to be put on unconditional waivers for the purposes of being released.

that's his only asset to the team too smh. Yet somehow, the management and coaching staff feel we need him on the team.

Well Nashville has a superstar goaltender, and most nights he was the one keeping the team in it. Phoenix was competitive also for the same reason. Smith, as I recall, was playing out of his mind in 2012.

They also played a style that made it tough for other teams to get chances, along with opportunistic scoring.

They still managed to have a team full of grinders who were 15-20 scorers though. Willie's gotta get more out of the rest of the lineup plain and simple.

Maybe Baer isnt cut out for the NHL, some players look really good in the AHL but disappear in the big leagues.

Probably because after he does that the puck dies on his stick, usually with losing the puck to an opposing player, but ya, love his skating

dont even compare the two lol come on man!

Did I compare?

 

my point is, and I've watched Calgary play.  (Centre ice package)

 

dougie is earning the title "overrated". He's lazy, not intense, and plays small.

 

so it appears we didn't hypothetically lose out on dougie as you infer.

I totally agree. I guess you didn't see my edit! :P

Same ole same ole - Canucks can't score.

3 shooters.... ZERO goals...

Just can't score when they need it.

 

 

hmmm .... last time we went to shootout was against Anaheim (only other time this season).  And, who won? Vrby with his patented move.  (but I dunno why he didn't try it this time)

time before that - 3rd last game of last season, versus Kings.  Who won?  Higgins with his s/o goal

prior to that, Nashville - Bonino with the s/o winner

then in march, a s/o loss in Phoenix, but 2 games before, a s/o win vs St louis, with the winning goal scored by Vrbata.

So i think Willie was going on the percentages and on recent history.

When was McCann's last shootout winning goal?  Or Hansen's?  Or Horvat's?

Baertschi shouldn't even be with the team.  If it wasn't for Waivers, he'd be in Utica.  He was gift-wrapped a top 6 role and has shown nothing offensively and tonight takes a stupid and untimely penalty when the team is struggling on the PK.  Hansen was clear in his interview how he felt about that penalty.

Agree on Weber.  Put him on waivers and use the kids from Utica.

I dont know why the hesitation from the coaching staff to do this. I mean, its not like they can be any worse the Weber ffs.

People forget but, Higgins won us at least 3 shootouts before.

Not forgetting the before, its the now. Who has the shootout book on McCann!
What would be so bad with Hansen just ripping it past the goalie.
Willie needs to change things up, what worked before doesn't anymore.
Liked that if we couldn't win in regulation, at least we didn't lose in OT. (close though)

The Canucks have a bottom 10 defence group, it would be a waste to lose a guy who scored 10 goals last year for nothing. Im not saying Weber is our saviour or anything but our organizational depth on D is horrible.

he was money with Ehrhoff and Salo. I think the coaching staff rely on him too much to be our offensive defenceman. 

Was being the operative word. 

The organization needs to move Edler this summer. He's not a number one defenseman and never will be.
