Sorry bout the rant. Dont take it personal.

He just seems like a big pussy now and it's hard to seperate the heart and soul captain and the guy consumed with staying skinny and pushing glasses

Edit* also personally if you want to keep talking about Cody = linden, I'd rather have another bertuzzi than another linden

Come on guys. No need to talk shit about Linden.

If you want to watch a huge difference, go look up the Washington/Toronto game from a week or so ago on the first goal that happened 30 seconds in.

Ovie brings the puck over the blueline and FOUR leafs collapse on him. Obviously someone said "DEFEND AGAINST OVECHKIN." during the pre-game. Then even after Marcus Johannsen takes the puck around the back of the net and scores, there's still 3 Leafs on Ovie.

Watch the Canucks in the defensive zone. Often it's a perfect box with two guys going after the puck at all times with a third floating behind and the other two moving into better positions to clear. Watching the guys that AREN'T near the puck is usually a great indication of how good a team is defensively. Bad teams chase the puck. Good teams were there before the puck got there.

Here are some "good" calder trophy winners from the past.

A 5' 10" centre who was 22 years old and had 44 points in his rookie year.

His name is Chris Drury.

A 5' 11" centre at 19 yrs old had 70 points as a rookie.

His name is Scott Gomez.

Where are these guys now?

IMO, any player in the NHL can become a good player. It takes hard work and determination. I don't give a shit if you're 10th overall first round pick. It doesn't mean you're locked to stardom.

Look at Burrows. Never drafted. Played in the ECHL. Worked his ass off. Remember that year where he can't even buy a fucking goal? Look at him now. A leader playing on one of the best line in the NHL on one of the best team. Did he complain throughout the process? Nope. I honestly hope Cody didn't complain about ice time and all. Just cause you're a 10th overall pick, you get all this shit and be treated like the hockey's Steve Francis?
lol whats your point? isn't that the case for every single fucking player in the NHL ? you gotta go back and work hard every season. Also why do you bring up drury and gomez, you realize they both have had a pretty successful career, yeah they kinda shit the bed in recent years but both had success well beyond their rookie season, I think a better example might have been andrew raycroft lol if you were trying to imply one and where the fuck is he now lol

dinamix is talking about Cody's personal characteristics, ie. how he conducts himself. A lot of people see a young Linden in Cody.

I'm sure Linden didnt have an impact on communities that early his career either... seems like you pulled your argument out of your ass.

First off, you diss Linden........ that's your prerogative.

Then you say, "No cup, no care."

Buddy, the cup is great and all, but it's the journey, the struggles, the sacrifices, and a thousand other things. So we win the cup. What happens after that? I love the Canucks, win or lose. You sir, are a bandwagoner of the worst kind.

Good timing I have the famous Linden/Kirk picture with only Linden's autograph.

However, when I looked up the website it says

"As part of the free signing Kirk McLean will not be signing the Trevor Linden/Kirk McLean duo famous picture after game six of the 1994 Stanley cup finals. Additional tickets can be purchased to have this item signed."

Oh well at least he will still sign it just need to purchase tix

Should have posted link to McLean: 2012 Spring Vancouver Sports Collectors...
I wonder how much they will charge to have the hug photo signed, admission to the show is $8 so sounds like they want $x on top? That's a bit of a crock IMO.

Mayray is also signing at the oval this Monday.

Nah, McLean rarely does signings and I just think it's a big "fuck you" to the people that sell autographs for a living.

Linden always does free signings and I'm sure he's signed the hug photo. Adding a McLean signature WITH the Linden signature on the hug photo is worth a lot.

One thing came across my mind. Kassian idolized Bertuzzi, Bert played here for a while. Maybe he should of chosen to wear #44 instead.

cody always look so down/depressed, even after he scores lol

sorry to pile on, but it's nice that MG kinda decided to move away from the "pussy" model of players or at least how they look/are perceived and actually get a hard nosed guy
