If anyone is still looking for Millionaires jerseys, Ice Level in Richmond has like ~5 left. No player names, just the blanks for $140. Picked one up today.

They also have blank our normal home blanks for $100, and some player jerseys for $130. Great deals.

BTW +1 doesn't mean a player is defensively responsible.

it just means vanek was scoring at a pace on even strength that made even shitty defensive like him players look better.

Plus/minus is an awful stat to judge a player's defensive abilities by. It's basically useless. A +1 rating literally means fuck all. You have to look at the underlying stats..fenwick, corsi, etc.

Lol didn't you say you've been playing hockey your whole life? You should know that +/- is a terrible way to judge a players defensive abilities.

You may be right, but then again, he has the same amount of points as Daniel, and more goals.
At this point, it's easy to say the trade was dumb and management mishandled Hodgson.
Unless he's a one-hit wonder (like Grabner), I see we just traded away a NHL ready centerman.
Regardless how Kassian eventually pans out in a few years,
we gave up good talent while our Cup window is closing.

I do believe players should earn their role, but considering how well he's doing when given patience and ice-time,
it seems like he did earn more time than he deserved, and it was AV (or management) that fucked things up.

And please... he's almost ppg right now.
Picking on his +/-'s is like complaining about the hot chick with a "pointy elbow".

I'm not saying defense/backchecking isn't important. It very so is.
But to use just that to justify Canucks giving away good talent is ridiculous.

RevYouUp 03-22-2013 03:48 PM

I was just stating what you guys were saying before. You guys said hodgson is a liability because he was -4. You guys do know he's playing on a shit team and playing against top defensive pairings every night. He kills penalties and he has more short handed goals than anyone on this team lol

W/e he has 27points that we don't have. We totally traded backwards on that deal, who the fuck trades backwards. Fk management and AV. Kassian won't make much of a difference once he's developed because we will be a rebuilding team by then lol

Sometimes surgery can shave some time off.
