What did he say? What was his reasoning for being out of shape?

Is it me or does anyone else notice the twins do not really play well with other players? Watching them play with Oulett on thursday, I didn't notice the twins passing the puck to him. Same thing with Steve Bernier. They started to pass to him as the time went on, but in the begining, very little puck sharing.
Same thing with Raymond.
Are they destined to fail as a line who ever they use as the third man on that line? Or are they waiting for Wellwood or someone who is a natural goal scorer like Anson Carter?

since when is anson carter considered a natural goal scorer?

^^ anson carter fit so well with them because he wasn't afraid to go and get the dirty goals. he understood the way they played, and used it to his advantage. it takes people time to learn the way they play.

not being afraid of crashing the net and being a presence does not equate to being a natural goal scorer.

Just to warn you, next game is on WEDNESDAY not tuesday.

werd..

imo alot of what Anson Carter did was luck

Bernier is a wayyyy more skilled player then carter ever was

The sedins looked decent with raymond last night, but i really think bernier is the player for that line.

Thanks I will edit my post.

recovering from multiple injuries

broken foot over the summer and two hernia operations before that and being forced to play through one or both of them.

They need a player who knows how to find the open areas so they can actually pass the puck effectively to that player.

or maybe the twins just lost confidence playing with different ppl every fucking goddamn night. Am i one of those that clearly know already in the back of my head prepared to see the twins go?

AV needs to build the chemistry and just stick with ONE man on tat top lne

yea im fairly sick of AV juggling shit all the time

trying to succeed with what u have is one thing, but were never gonna get anywhere until we start stickign with some set lines for a while, dont just give it a week, give it a month or 2..

Sedins looked really good last night though, especially the one shift where they were playing down deep in the offensive zone the whole time

omfg, pls stop talking about wellwood, they're not going to send down the leading goal scorer on the team, its pretty obvious, end of discussion.

ppl trying to make controversy out of nothing....

You are correct, but my question still stands. Of all the people the twins have played with in their time with the Canucks, I feel Anson was the most productive, while Linden wasn't too shabby. I still think Pyatt could have done more playing on that line.

We really need to a 1st and 2nd line. Sedins need to find someone they can play with soon.

I think the NHL didn't recognize the sedins as a threat back in the day when they had Carter. Now everyone knows them and their style of play. That being said, if Carter was to play with the Sedins today, I don't think they would do as well. Just my opinion.

...then anson carter got greedy (or his agent)...he shoulda just took the offer and he woulda still be playing till today (in the nhl)

Probably one of the worst career moves in recent history. lol. Short-term sacrifices can lead to long-term gains.

Kev

what's he doing now?

^Sweet FA.

From Wikipedia:

talk about fucking up your career...

Of course, one of the things about Anson Carter was that he'd ALWAYS been a roller-coaster - hot one season, cold the next, and on fire again the next. He lucked out in getting the Twins on an up-swing season...

anyone know who holds the record for most Consecutive shutouts?

isn't' it boucher? when he played for phoenix

ya, Brian Boucher did it. He did 5 games.

I just found the answer. Thx to google.:thumbsup:
