That and referring to him as the best pure passer in history whenever he gets an assist. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think the comparison to Burrows in term of work effort is spot on. I think he has better skill and of course speed. From the interview and the on ice performance the Canucks have a good skilled hard working player, to help boost the team in time of need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its often actually an advantage, when learning language, that you are the only one using your native tongue... forces you to constantly use the language. In saying that, having a team mate, who has the same back ground and speak the same language as you do, can add a lot socially, and make the player feel a lot more comfortable and at home... I remember reading Naslund put an “English only” rule into the locker room when he was captain. Would probably upset some people nowadays but good idea for building up the room. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely the right decision still, but it comes across a little differently from a Swedish captain instead of a Canadian. I'd suggest someone like OEL would be better to lead this instead of a native English speaker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vancan2233 Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 1 hour ago, CanucksJay said: This feels a little similar to when the Canucks were looking for compensation for Nedved. Canuck fans were hoping for a big return. the rumour was Canucks wanted Shanahan. The Blues wanted to give up Craig Janney. The end result was Jeff Brown, Bret Hedican, and Nathan Lafayette. Ppl were up in arms about the return yet in hindsight, we all remember the Brown to Bure pass in Rd 1 Game 7. We remember Lafayette hitting the post in finals game 7. Hedican went on to have an excellent career. I would be ok if Miller gave us multiple assets that filled multiple holes. With our future cap structure (Boeser, Petey, Hughes OEL and prob Horvat) do. We have cap space for another superstar? I'm sure there is a way to clear the cap space but yeah I'm interested to see what the return is and our reaction to it Canucks could use Brown's hard accurate shot (righty) from the blue line on the current roster. Hedican's speed would fit too. Lafayette was hard working forechecker with good enough skill. A return like that would be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seannnp Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 4 hours ago, Bure_Pavel said: I disagree, I think Garland and Kuz are much better fits in a top 6 role and have better offensive skills + are younger. I think its fair to say Ilya is ahead of Podz, but that could change quite quickly if Podz takes the next step this season. The best course or action would be to trade Garland and Miller hopefully getting a top 4 RD and 3C back + futures. Ideally, I wonder if Miller (extended) + for Weegar, Bennet, 3rd or 4th rounder would be something doable. Fills our top pairing right side, 3c and we get an additional pick. I would not be trading Garland now or in the future. Sign Evan Rodrigues Trade Pearson, Dickinson for whatever closer to training camp. Not sure if this works cap wise, just an idea.

From where I was at the time (British Properties), and the way sports communications were back then (day old news on paper), I probably read it in The Province. But my old brain says it was The Big Irishman that said it (and he did not take it back). Brown was good for us and the others as you mentioned. But Pat wanted the battleship.
