Popular Post alucard Posted October 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) Hello everyone, I am a canuck fan and I am from Iran. I follow nhl and canucks. love Vancouver. As a fan I learn about history of canucks and watch their old videos, personally love West Coast Express era cause it was a stark contrast from boring way of trap games in those days. one of the reasons I love canucks it is how they play differently and they always build attacking teams, they draft Swedish stars and play stylish, sad about this but love how THEY NEVER EVER WIN DRAFT LOTTERY. It is so unfair .yet canucks do their best. maybe this topic has been discussed but it is offseason and covid and things are a bit stale, I thought let`s open this topic to get a bit excited and I can learn more about the canucks and history of it and plus I can say hi to all canucks fans and it is a chance to say how much I appreciate fellow canucks. my knowledge in hockey is not that much i follow and do my best. sorry for the rant. So let`s begin if you allow me , let`s post our best top 2 lines of canucks ever. LW C RW RD LD , first and second lines also 2 goalies. Thanks.

Patel Bure Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) I would do as follows: Miller-Pettersson-Bure Naslund-Kesler-Bertuzzi Sedin-Sedin-Linden Burrows-Horvat-Mogilny Smyl Edler-Brown Hughes-Tanev Jovanovski-Lidster Lumme McLean Markstrom If you’re talking about actual lines however that happened: Sedin-Sedin-Burrows Naslund-Morrison-Bertuzzi Adams-Linden-Bure Gelinas-Ronning-Mogilny Erhoff-Edler Hughes-Tanev Hamhuis-Bieksa McLean Markstrom Edited November 1, 2020 by DarkIndianRises 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ken kaniff Posted October 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 23, 2020 The best 2 lines in Canucks history are easily D.Sedin-H.Sedin-Burrows Naslund-Morrison-Bertuzzi as for the D. It gets more complicated because there were often switch ups but I’d say Hamhuis-Bieksa was one of our best shutdown all situations pairing. If Hughes and Schmidt stay together they will probably be the best. Anyone pairing with Hughes will be our best D pairing lol Goalies is hard. Luongo is probably the best. But Markstrom the last 2 years were Phenominal. I wasn’t around for McLean or Brodeur so idk 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alucard Posted October 23, 2020 Author Share Posted October 23, 2020 Nice. Thanks for the answers. My intention is that you can mix times for example putting bure with the sedins in a line and etc ... by the way in goalies department who was more clutch Luongo or Mclean? There is something about Mclean that just fits my concept of cancuks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.B Cooper Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) Top 2 lines eh? That’s a tough one. EP isn’t on that list yet, but I feel he will be, so he’s going in. Same as Hughes. Sedin Sedin Bertuzzi Naslund Petey Bure Ohlund Hughes Edler Jovonoski Luongo McLean So I realize this list makes me look 18, and I’m well into my 30s, but with the exception of the two kids, the stats can kinda back this lineup. How the hell do you leave out Smyl, Mogilny, Lumme, LINDEN,etc.....? This line up would probably get beat up physically a bit, but damn would it do damage. Twins finally getting that gnarly power forward with the skills and hands to match theirs. That would have been wild to see. Second line is just too fast and skilled for anyone. All can fly, shoot, create..... It would be awesome. Ohlund with Hughes Yup. I wish. Jovocop was the man. That’s all. Lol Edler was an amazing dman and holds pretty much all our dman records. He’s on the list for sure. Goalies....... Who else is even close to those two? Edited October 23, 2020 by drummerboy 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alucard Posted October 23, 2020 Author Share Posted October 23, 2020 Heard good stuff about about lot of players that i have not see their play so I`m not going to be a good judge, from my limited knowledge: love current team, love hughes and EP but they still playing and they will be judged in their later years and will be legends. so, Attack: Sedin-Sedin-Bure Naslund-Smyl-Linden Defense: Ohlund-Salo Jovanovski-Bieksa Goalies: Mclean Luongo Heard good things about Gradin, Lume and others but unfortunately have not seen them play.

I wasn’t around for McLean or Brodeur so idk Agree with your lines, though if it was just best at the position regardless of the actual line I would sub out Morrison for Linden (now) or Petersson (in a couple of years). I was around for both McLean and Brodeur. King Richard, though a folk hero, falls not only behind these guys but also Gary Smith and (maybe) Cloutier. McLean I put at #2 behind Luongo and ahead of Markie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kumquats Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Funny how a few of us are saying: Sedin Sedin Bertuzzi Did everyone forget that was a 3rd line while Bertuzzi was still playing the top line with West Coast Express? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The twins only really became “the twins” from the 05-06 season onwards. Prior to that, they weren’t superstars. Naslund-Linden-Bure also lined up a few times together at the start of the infamous 1997-1998 season when Naslund was pre-peak and Linden was post-peak.

Chances are the lines would not be as good with different players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Led the entire NHL in SPCT in the 1982 playoffs including Billy Smith. Cloutier is ahead of King Richard in beachballs though. And he has the worst career playoff SPCT in NHL history of any goalie with 20 games. I like Cloutier well enough but that is ridiculous. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No question whatsoever that it was McLean. Luongo is probably the most meltdown prone HOF goalie I've ever seen. He got to the Final in 2011 but he had to basically go through counseling to deal with the Yips for two separate stretches along the way. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
