Popular Post aGENT Posted June 5, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 5, 2022 I'd love for everyone's favourite man-crush to retire a Canuck. Make this happen. 3 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 He isn't retired yet? Well, lace em up Kev. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 I've personally never cared too much about the sentimental one-day contracts to retire with a team. It's a nice gesture, but it's not like they truly retired after playing for that team. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it’s nice to know Juice considers himself a lifelong Canuck, as he should. 2 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DeNiro Posted June 5, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted June 5, 2022 That would be a nice gesture. What about Jannik Hansen though? Are we gonna get this guy back in the organization or what?? Every time I listen to him I’m impressed with how well he understands the game and is very blunt in what the Canucks needs are. He would be a good voice to have in the room IMO. 3 8 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alot of guys from that team could be excellent mentors for this organization, Hansen, Burr, Bieksa, Kesler - they were all warriors. We need some of their attitude injected into this group. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Hansen to death - but whenever I hear him speak all I can picture is Burr doing his Crow impression. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both fought their way to the top. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but I also like having him outside of it Hansen pulls no punches regarding the Canucks but goes about his business without an agenda to get clicks or sell papers He's often right on the nose with his takes, even if they ruffle the feathers of some Canuck fans 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more yes men (and women) and country club attitudes. You don’t get anywhere doing that. I’m a pretty big Canucks homer and even I can’t argue with most of his takes. He seems to follow the team very closely and draws from his own experience to analyze the team. Would love to see him in a player development role to start. Not many players have a better idea of what it takes than a guy drafted from a non traditional hockey country in the 9th round. He had to work for everything he got. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, I absolutely agree He's also a piece I could see shaking loose any leftover country club atmosphere, he's still a honey badger 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grinder_1 Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Glad I wasn’t the only one who thought Hansen should be hired to work for the Canucks in some capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
