People forget that Hamhuis had a NTC.... he didn't waive it. Hamhuis later went to Dallas...

 

Gillis gave a lot of NTCs. It's part of the business.

He's moody and it definitely gets the better of him at times.  But it also fuels the fire that we see (too).  I'd rather have a guy who is this passionate about it than one who mails it in.  

Kesler was the same way, but he's still one of the better Canucks we've iced during our history

And when he's put in a position to succeed he does well. 

Sometimes. Look at the start of the season. He played in the top six with Miller out. I think he’s a player in the league but I ain’t holding my breath on the Offense anymore

For sure.

 

But he’s guilty of both. When he’s pouting on the ice it is effecting his game this season.

Like when he knows he screwed up his assignment he coasts back and throws his head up as if they’ve already scored.

The Canucks reminds of my bout of hemorrhoids...............you can't sit, you can't shat, and you don't want to move!

 

 

So the cure to the Canucks problems is a little bit of Preparation H, got it

You going to ban me for speaking truths? Lol. I'm never gonna shoot rainbows out my ass. 

[canuck2288]

Ahhhhh the Canucks 

 

where its ok to lose, it’s nobody’s fault, nothing needs to improve, other teams are good, we may win .... eventually.... in a few years, all good as long as we try and have fun

It was the meta to bargain down long deals with full protection, and as they do, the meta shifted. Far fewer given out these days.

Agreed. If only they'd put him on Horvat's line for once.

 

Or maybe give him a few games with Pettersson & Boeser.

I've liked him on 2nd line for the most part. I think both he and Bo though, need a playmaker to really make things cook.

Drop Pearson to 3rd line. Bring up Hogz. 36 with those 2 puck hounds to me, seems like gold.

I’ve been saying this for so long now. That would be a very good second line. Pearson would be great on the third with sutter and gauds as well

for an NHL caliber team, yes, you are absolutely right....but for a team that can't pass unless it's to the other team, skate like they are wearing cement blocks, is allergic to hitting, and has a tendency to cough it up in the D zone, one goal will not get this team back in it.

I bet you were cartwheeling when Gaudette scored the tying goal couple nights ago. This is a pretty good team. Not a contender, not even upper echelon but capable of winning in any given night. They are up against a good team tonight that really wants it but hockey is so much about momentum. Just saying.
