Replace him with booths salary.

No guy, you clearly dont get it. why bother, when the guy is more injury prone then kesler. hes almost salo level. if we are spending money on players it should be on players who dont have a lengthy injury history. More over hes a player who should clearly stay in the east, the west is too rough for him

I know what you mean... but I also think we don't really know what happened in the background? Maybe he didn't even want to be captain and was forced into it? I completely agree he looked depressed and downtrodden and I felt like it rubbed off on the team... but I think it's management's mistake for keeping him with the C when it's obvious he wasn't the right kind of guy for that (at least outside the locker room)...... I don't really feel like it discredits what a great player he was though. Just another poorly handled situation by the Canucks on the management side of things.

Bobrovsky rustles Nash's jimmy's by shoving away his stick. Ricky answers back with a shove.

Pandemonium!

Hate crashing net goals. Nash has a history of these borderline goals.

Agreed

What are you Aquilini's accountant? If he's injured it means nothing. That cap space would have been sitting there doing nothing (enlighten me on who you would sign in his place). No one is signing him to a long term contract.

Bruins are the first team to clinch a playoff spot

There's no point in signing him cause the nucks aren't winning the cup next year just cause they signed ales hemsky....
The window is closed on this core so it's time to retool, rebuild, or whatever you want to call it.
I'd much rather give that roster spot to one of the young guys so we can develop them.

even if he gets injured, say we get the IR space

well, the opportunity cost to have even have signed him in the first place was a waste. could have cast another FA
or like f3 said, better just use a kid in the farm rather than even bother with this underachieving hemsky

And if we wanted an Ales Hemsky, we could've just kept Mason Raymond ... Who would be cheaper, younger, and less prone to injury.

Just sharing a few pics from my trip to FLA/TAM on March 16/17, enjoy :hotbaby:

Of course it means something if hes injured, it means the line up you projected to have, isnt there, and it fucks shit up. IF the canucks do add someone..moulson, callahan, stastny, bolland, ott would all suit the team better. They are all physical or have shown the ability to continue a level of play in the west, plus they are more reliable defensively. Its not so much about cash, but the fact Hemsky is not built for playing in the West. Basically for a team like the Canucks(In the pacific division, playing the kings, ducks, sharks so many times + the other big teams from the west that physically dominate) Hemsky is a stupid fucking investment, and if you cant see that, I dont think you understand how to hockey.

Any word on how long Burrows is out for?

:lawl:

GOOD! i find it super annoying when fans bang on the plexi like that.

It looks like Kesler may have hurt himself during practice today:

Kesler back on the ice just 3 minutes after storming off. We'll see how he does for the rest of the day. Hurt himself on a spin-o-rama.

Nux gm Mike Gillis on thumb injury to Alex Burrows: 'the preliminary analysis is not positive. It doesn't look very good,' #Canucks

And now Kesler is back. Quick healer... #canucks

We sent Archi back down the other day so we don't have any extra skaters I think.. which means Kes/Daniel will draw in next week

On another note Santo ahead of recovery

nope.. too late, can't even find it cause it wasn't even me that put it up :lol
elb/tachy put it up when he changed my username many years ago

I think its time for the Canucks to shutdown guys like Kes and Daniel. No point rushing them back into a season which is basically over.

fify

Malkin beasting this year. Too bad he missed that time with injuries. I think he'd be challenging crosby for the Art Ross.

I'll see if either of them remember where they got that pic from then haha.. unless I start a google search for hilariously racist photos :pokerface:

was it this one?
