DeNiro Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Huh, called up eh? Whoever saw that coming. I kinda did. I also wonder if he's there gauging whether Jensen or Baertschi deserve a late season call up. Sven showing his stuff for Benning? Maybe hoping for a call up.

Webster6 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 I really don't wanna see his time squandered on a 4th line. He may as well be in Utica if that's the case. I'd rather him go hard at winning a championship than try and make a team that is unlikely to go too far in the playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crabcakes Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Junglesniper I'm feeling the same way about this. If they're bringing him up, he should stay up and he should play. If they just give him a sniff of the big club, then send him back down, it does nothing for Baertschi's fragile confidence. I expected him to stay in Utica and be a part of the Calder run. Wouldn't that be better for him than playing 8 minutes or less with the Canucks? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather him go hard at winning a championship than try and make a team that is unlikely to go too far in the playoffs. Which is the 4th line? With Horvat, that would constitute at least the 3rd line. Sven / Horvat / Dorsett or Hansen Edited April 3, 2015 by Rollieo Del Fuego Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Canucks don't go far he can always go back to Utica. I don't see how it hurts to reward a player who has proven himself on the farm.

I don't see how it hurts to reward a player who has proven himself on the farm. He has shown quite a lot of excitement and gratitude to the Canucks you can't help but like him and his interviews are soo endearing. He really does seem genuinely excited to be here. I'm looking forward to watching him play tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how it hurts to reward a player who has proven himself on the farm. If he plays with Horvat then I'm okay with this, because that line will be called upon. I'd just hate to see his confidence diminish by playing 6-8 minutes and not getting enough of a chance to make a big impact. People expect him to shine right away, and if he only gets a half chance at it and disappoints. Vancouver may end up calling for his head irrationally and hurt his confidence once again. Here's to hoping we play Calgary in the first round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snizzle_ Posted April 3, 2015 Author Share Posted April 3, 2015 I'm excited to see him play with Horvat and Hansen. Kenins has been off the last few games, hopefully this lights a fire under him too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he follow that up or has he hinted as to what that might imply? It's about style of play. He explains it here - starts at the 17:30 mark http://forum.canucks.com/topic/362636-official-2014-15-utica-comets-thread/?p=12695919 Also at some point I remember them asking him to take example on Brendan Gallagher...

mll Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 (edited) Craig Button on Sven. He thinks it was a real astute move by the Canucks. Starts at 34:40. He also gives his take on why Calgary traded him - thinks that they recognized that he would not be able to reach his potential under their current regime (- it happens that some coaches prefer some players over others.) https://soundcloud.com/the-moj/bob-marjanovich-april-3-hour-2#t=34:40 Edited April 4, 2015 by mll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
