Rush17 Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Baertschi played really well in the first period. I know he took 2 penalities 1 though was forgivable as he was covering for a d man's mistake. So if you erase that penalty and just consider it being 1 bad penality he didn't do to bad in terms of discipline. I believe he has a lot more to show us. Very exciting to have another talented prospect in our lineup. Wouldn't be surprised if we see Kenins draw in with someone else subbing out for rest sometime soon. Baertschi will be a real treat if we take the playoffs. He seems like the type of player that excels when the crowds intensity increases. I think he did very well in his first game given the intensity Winnipeg brought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Karlsson Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 If we play the Flames in the first round it's going to be fun to watch him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdubuya Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Sven started off well, but otherwise he looked pretty timid out there. He's certainly no Kenins. Unless he starts producing and fast I don't see this current stint lasting too much longer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
on the cycle Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Back to his more familiar #47 after this odd experiment with #42 (despite #47 being available and some of our other rookies rocking higher numbers - contrary to the unwritten rule)... Vancouver Canucks @VanCanucks 2m2 minutes ago. @SvenBaertschi sporting No. 47 as he hits the ice for #Canucks practice this morning. 42 is discovery that's why!

people please Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Looked so good in the first against Winnipeg but I didn't notice him after that period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Off_The_Schneid! Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 If players he set up finished people would be talking differently Set up Dorset with a beauty pass Dodged the check to set up Horvat for a partial breakaway I thought that line was in the offensive end the entire time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gstank29 Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 I say Baertschi was very noticable in this first game. Overall i would give him a C+ but it was his firs game in a canucks uniform and he seems to be as good as advertised, especially in the offensive zone. Hope he plays against LA.

Canucks1219 Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Here are the highlights only for Baertschi's debut against the Jets. The line of Baertschi - Horvat - Hansen had a rough night and spent the vast majority of their shifts defending in their own zone. Horvat had a tough night in the circle so the Jets started many shifts against this line with the puck on their sticks. Not a recipe for success against Winnipeg. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DeAEDS4gRI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uselessstats Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Not a bad debut by Baertschi, showed good wheels and some good vision on a couple of plays. That said, he does play like a typical "small, skilled" player, meaning you aren't going to get a ton out of them if they aren't scoring. Considering we only have up a mid-2nd I think it is a good gamble to take but every time people lose their minds over taking Virtanen instead Ehlers or Nylander, just remember that Baertschi also put up 2 PPG in his draft+1 year and is as purely skilled as either of those players. Just because they can dazzle and dangle through junior aged kids or even at the AHL level doesn't mean they are all slated to be the next Patrick Kane at the NHL level. Baertschi may still end up a top 6 player just as Ehlers and Nylander may, but it isn't as much a sure thing as people like to think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't watch it because I knew there would be nothing in it, but that's hilarious I didn't watch it either, but I saw it in my YouTube feed and couldn't help but laugh at the optics of a video of a player re-signing a long-term deal at a $4.45 million cap followed immediately by a career highlight video less than half a minute long. Obviously Tanev's worth is in the subtle plays but it was still pretty funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
