Have any of u guys notice how biased TSN SportsCentre Broadcasters are, against the Canucks? First thing i noticed is when they called Kronwalls Hit on Kesler Clean and when they were saying Ballards hit was similiar to Marchands hit on Salo.
Towards the end of the game, when they were commenting on how few penalties there have been, they said outright that the Ballard penalty was a bad call, and it shouldn't have been a penalty...

That was an intentional swing to hit something at the very least.

Canucks’ Cory conundrum: Keep or reap the benefits of a trade?

VANCOUVER — Join us now as we plunge into shark-infested waters, fully aware of the perils, of the certain management pooh-poohing to come, of the arguments and counter-arguments, and of the impending umbrage of the most combustible fan base this side of Montreal (minus the 24 Stanley Cups).

To you, we present the great Cory Schneider debate, known to many fans outside Vancouver (and Winnipeg) as: “Schneider ... Schneider ... where do I know that name from?”
Should the Vancouver Canucks trade Roberto Luongo’s gifted, playoff-ready backup goalie at the deadline, or at the very least, shop him in advance of it, to see what they might snag? Or should they keep the big redhead as playoff insurance before dealing him at the June draft?

The debate rears its head anew each time Schneider steps between the pipes and excels, as he did most notably in a 43-save, 3-2 November win at San Jose, January’s still-echoing 4-3 road thriller in Boston, and in Tuesday’s 3-2 overtime win against the Chicago Blackhawks.

No slouches, those teams, and no coincidence that the backup has been in goal to face them. He is either being prepped for a potentially bigger playoff role (unlikely), or showcased (more likely) or merely keeping Luongo’s workload down (definitely).

Whatever the reason given, the Schneider-Luongo conundrum is becoming a recurring theme, intriguing even to the many-headed national TV panels, and is sure to remain so in the 25 days before the trade deadline.

A conspicuous asset, largely wasted on the market where he is currently employed, will do that. Usually it’s when a team going nowhere has a good player it cannot re-sign, but sometimes it happens when a team that is (or thinks it is) on the cusp of greatness has a clear surplus at one position and a clear need at another.

Enter the Canucks, who had two chances to win one game for the Stanley Cup last spring, yet weren’t really very close, by the end.

Since then, they have lost defenceman Christian Ehrhoff and not replaced him, they have added winger David Booth, who has shown flashes of promise as a top-six forward, and they have essentially gained a first-class rookie, Cody Hodgson who, at 21, after a couple of false starts, has finally given them an element of scoring depth they never had before.

But do they have enough to go all the way? Or is their window of opportunity to win a Cup — and the windows are seemingly much narrower, these days, everywhere but Detroit — in danger of closing, if they don’t make the most of this run? Can they risk losing another chance because of a move they were reluctant to make?

The “trade him now” argument is pretty straightforward.

He’s not much use to the Canucks, manning the gate to the bench in April (and possibly May and June). Backup goalies almost never win a team the Stanley Cup, and usually only get in when the cause is lost. Last year, Schneider came in after Luongo was yanked in three games — two against Chicago, one in Boston — and he started Game 6 of the Chicago series. The Canucks lost all of them.

But he is so fundamentally sound, as anyone who sees him regularly knows — and at 25, still entering prime time — that if GM Mike Gillis finds the right trading partner, he might net the Canucks the sort of impact player that would allow them to survive the two-month playoff grind this time: a no-nonsense power forward or a plausible top-four defenceman for when one of theirs inevitably goes down.

The more cautious “hold onto him” case is not without merit, either.

The Canucks were badly battered by the time of the Cup final last year. Ryan Kesler had torn a hip muscle against San Jose and was a shadow of himself. Dan Hamhuis was lost for the duration after delivering a hip-check. Mason Raymond broke his back when hit by Johnny Boychuk. Aaron Rome was suspended. Ehrhoff was beat up. And they still got to Game 7. They could do so again, without losing Schneider, and maybe this time be luckier.

Sure, it’s possible they could run into the same buzz-saw once more, if both they and Boston made it that far, and the Bruins stayed as healthy as they did a year ago. But other than Raymond’s, the injuries were not a result of being bullied. So do they need more horses?

And if they traded Schneider on or before Feb. 27, Luongo would have to play almost all the games in the last six weeks of the regular season, meaning that the plan for him to be daisy-fresh in the playoffs would be down the tubes.

And what if Luongo got hurt, late in the season or along the playoff trail? Unless they got a goalie back as part of a larger trade, the Canucks couldn’t possibly be comfortable handing the keys to 2011 AHL rookie all-star Eddie Lack, who at the moment is being outplayed on the farm team by 29-year-old journeyman Matt Climie.

And then, of course: who, exactly, is that trading partner?

The only teams needing a crack goaltender at the deadline are teams with ideas of making a long run. Anyone else could wait until June.

So which teams (almost certainly in the East; Gillis would be unlikely to trade him in-conference, and risk having him come back to haunt him early) need a goalie badly enough to part with an important skater? Philly? After investing heavily in Ilya Bryzgalov? New Jersey, in case soon-to-be-40 Marty Brodeur powers out? Washington, where Thomas Vokoun’s numbers aren’t blowing anybody away? Toronto, which is probably too busy trying to figure out whether Jonas Gustavsson or James Reimer, or both, or neither, is the real thing?

But here’s what seems to tips the scales: the playoffs in the West, this year, are going to be frightening. Just emerging alive on the other side is going to take all hands on deck.

Can the Vancouver Canucks afford to have one of those hands tied behind their back, wearing a baseball cap?

Ah I didn't notice it. I was just looking for when the puck went in.

It's debatable though. It's not like the league "knew" Doughty would score a few 10ths of a second after the buzzer they then decided to stop the clock for an instant to let them win. :badpokerface:

[AzNightmare]

Think the clock might have just glitched and malfunction.
Doesn't necessarily need to be some clock guy messing with the outcome.

Didn't they review that goal???
I would think a goal like that would automatically be reviewed on since it was so close.
It's not like it was OT and LA was skating away to the dressing room.

With even 0.3 seconds left, they would have to officially end it with a center ice face-off,
and goal review should have been done before the puck drop.

Like most NHL coaches who grew up in Canada and are working in the U.S., Mike Babcock enjoys the give-and-take with reporters when the Red Wings visit Canadian cities.

After going through a workout with a Detroit trainer that would have left one of his players huffing and puffing, the 48-year-old Saskatoon native held court with reporters on Wednesday.

His assessment of the Canucks

“I really like their top four D. Most people see Hamhuis and Bieksa as their No. 1 pair, but Edler and Salo, for me, are outstanding players.
“They've got their guys everyone talks about, but Hodgson was a top-10 draft pick, Canadian Hockey player of the year, he's a real hockey player to me.

“Lapierre and Malhotra gives them a real solid fourth line.
“Higgins seems to be revived, Raymond can really skate, Burrows really skates. And I haven't even talked about their big three up front.

"Then, one-two in net are outstanding. There's no fall-off."

On his much-maligned goalie at the 2010 Games

"I think anyone who's won an Olympic gold medal, won a world championship … did he win a world junior [Silver in 1999]? Been to Game 7 of the Stanley Cup final. How old's Roberto? [32] I'd say he's doing all right.
“I don't know, he had a smile on his face when I saw him in the hallway today.

“You know what, only one team gets to win. I've lost in Game 7 twice. It's not a good thing, it's not fun. But I'd take losing in Game 7 over losing in Game 6 and I'd take that over not getting to the final, any day.”

On the recurring references to the Sedins as sisters by the likes of Chicago's Dave Bolland

“I don't know what they were calling them after the [win over the Blackhawks]. I think sometimes you better keep your mouth shut and just appreciate good players.
“The thing I like about 'em, and I was talking to one of our players about this today, is they have decided to be elite. They've gotten better each and every year.

“There's nobody in the league better on the cycle than them and no one better on the power play than them.
“Wasn't one of them the top scorer last year and the other the year before, something like that? I don't know what you want them to do, they look like pretty good players every time we play them.

“To me, they're real special players. They don't have a 'good-enough' metre. They haven't said, 'OK, we've been good enough,' and reflected on their past.
“They want to win. I'm impressed by them. I like their attitude, I like how hard they play.”

On Niklas Kronwall's leaping hit on Ryan Kesler in December

"He's one of those guys that, if you're going to be physical, he can respond or he can initiate.

"The thing I like about it, he's playing against good players, he's playing fair and honest, and if he gets a chance to catch you he's going to catch you."

[DanHibiki]

Canucks won't get going unless the Sedins do

[jdmhaze]

Pavel Datsyuk is one of the BEST in the NHL for shootouts. He is almost 50% for his WHOLE career. Hudler has just been on fire lately.

Luongo is not good in shootouts. Who gives a fuck? Theres none in playoffs.

Canucks got outplayed for the better part of the game while LU kept us in it.

[Bonka]

Lucky to get a point tonight.

If it wasn't for Luongo, wouldn't have even gotten the point tonight.

1pt for around 2 periods worth of effort? Seems ok to me.

Dont want to goto a shootout? Dont goto fucking OT 6 times in 8 games. Its because of Luongo they were even in it. He earned them the 1 point. He didnt lose them the second.

[dbaz]

shootout stats
1 Roberto Luongo 2-5 sv .476
2 Cory Schneider 1-0 sv 1.00

time to sub in Schneider during the shootouts?
schneider has been better with them. not just this year either.

In addition to that, Canucks have been giving up an unusual amount of odd man rushes and defensive breakdowns in their own zone.

[kristianhay]

The one thing I don't agree with AV on is his lineup in the shootout. I think the go-to should be something like CoHo, Burrows and Kes. CoHo's proven himself in the shootout and has had success in it at every level of hockey he's played. Mind boggling.

[Vansterdam]

lol knew luu would choke in shootout

he was solid for rest of the game though

And give Booth a try.

[kristianhay]

^^

Can't blame it all on him, shooters didn't score either.

And give Booth a try.

Booth, the Sedins, anyone would do! I just feel as if there should be a core few guys who are used - Raymond isn't great in the shootout, neither are Edler, Bieksa or whatever other random people AV likes to use.

[jeedee]

Eh I don't think using either Sedin would help...

@GMillerTSN: in their last nine shootouts, the canucks haven't used either Sedin. Daniel is 0 for his last 6. Henrik is 0 for 3 in his career :heckno:
Posted via RS Mobile (http://www.revscene.net/forums/announcement.php?a=228)

[AzNightmare]

Raymond is useful, but only if he does his spinorama.
I've yet to see him score doing any other move he tries.

Burrows is not a bad choice either, but only if he does his deke and backhand.
His other moves don't work, and he over thinks it just like Raymond.

I would think CoHo would be a sure thing for the shootout, since he's proven he can do it.

And Sedins are just garbage in the shootout.
It's so bad, you'll wonder if they are even trying.

You can't blame Luongo, Datsyuk is one of the best penalty shot shooters in the game.
He has 2 proven moves that has embarrassed countless of goalies, and even if he runs out of room,
he still makes one up on the spot like flipping it over the goalie.

[bengy]

Those were some pathetic shootout attempt by both Edler and Raymond. I don't think it's fair to say Luongo choked. Everything gets blamed on the goalie in Vancouver, nothing new.

[LsquareD]

Sam Gagner with 8 points (4G, 4A) against Chicago today. Dangggg

[RiceIntegraRS]

Pathetic attempts? You serious? When Howard doesnt bite on the fake shot and the deke, ur chances of scoring is almost impossible.

[AzNightmare]

It's arguable that perhaps the shooters just weren't convincing enough in their fakes.
Edler's fake almost looked like he lost control of the puck.
And Raymond DID lose control of the puck. But it's not like it would have mattered,
since even Luongo would have stopped that one with his infamous "belly flop leg spread" move.

Flash Fans: 2012 Budweiser Official Big Game Commercial - YouTube

Not sure if you guys seen this one (budweiser superbowl commercial in canada).. pretty damn COOL

[Not really racist!]

If we put it all on the line in OT, we wouldn't be having this discussion. We were too passive, I don't know about you but I rather lose in OT than in the SO where we are in a sure losing situation, Howard (2 SOG GA this season) and Datsyuk..

We played to passively, normally we see a flying Canucks team that has more than one SOG, but that's what a team like Detroit does to you, they're different from any other team in the NHL.

[skippynixx]

The first period could have been alot worse had it not been for Lebrongo.

Why is AV using a defenceman and a third liner for the shootout? meh :seriously:

David Booth penalty shot goal 10/30/10 - YouTube

Found a Booth penalty shot.
Looks a bit like one of Datsyuk's moves.

For sure, I don't mind others getting a chance. But we all know AV plays favourites.
And sometimes he just sends whoever scored goals in the game to reward them.

Did some reviewing on the past few shootouts.
Raymond actually hit the post twice using the same move against LA and Edmonton.
Maybe just needs to refine that one a bit more.

[cctw]

^i think datsyuk's move was a little smoother..booth's looked a bit rigid when he was deking.

[AzNightmare]

I'm hooked on watching some good shootouts from Linden.

There's so many on YouTube. It's amazing how he doesn't even do any
sort of deke or stick waves or anything. He just skates in, picks a corner,
and snaps it in. So accurate...

I think the jackets coach said it, that while it won't really matter to them, it does matter a great deal to the west playoff race, that extra 1 point might be the difference for the final playoff spot or them overtaking the sharks for the division.

[Hondaracer]

i laugh at all the people who say the kings actually benefited directly from this

you guys actually think by giving them an extra second it meant they would score? the chance of that happening again even if you gave them 3-5 seconds is MINISCULE

[woob]

you guys actually think by giving them an extra second it meant they would score? the chance of that happening again even if you gave them 3-5 seconds is MINISCULE

We aren't talking about the future, we are talking about what ACTUALLY happened. You can argue that an extra few seconds will not change the outcome of a game 99/100 times (NOTE: not an actual statistic), but in this case at least, we can be 100% sure that not having that extra second would have prevented a goal. As such, the Kings did benefit. I hope you see the distinction.

And the reason for the fanfare around this glitch is that it has implications on playoff seeding in a tight Western Conference.

Did you not watch the video?
Kings DID score, and won the game.

[RRxtar]

I think Hondaracer is trying to say that someone made the clock glitch a second to give the Kings more time to score. that may be a stretch... altho it is possible given they were pressing hard and had a chance to shoot.

regardless of speculation or conspiracies, the reality is if the clock didnt glitch, the Kings would not have scored. you cannot argue that. and they might have lost the game.

there werent many of us saying give coho a chance. most fans and most of this thread had him written off in training camp. hes actually developing even faster than i thought he would

[RRxtar]

CoHo had half a season in the AHL and a handfull of games in the big league after missing like 2 years with back problems. you cant do anything with back problems, not even work out. remember how long it took Kesler to break out? not saying CoHo is the same kind of player as Kes, but give him another year. he showed signs of that hockey sense we saw in the Jrs and have been promised about. he just needs to get his speed up. he improved a ton over in the short time he was up

why does everyone think coho has been rotting in the minors for 5 years? he just turned 21 and was drafted in 08, and wasnt expected to break the big league immediately anyway. then add to that, he missed all of the 08-09 season with his back problems, and then was sent back to the OHL in 09-10 and only played 13 games and missed the rest of the season, again, due to back problems. hes only had 1 year as a pro which was this year and it took him half the season to get up to AHL speed.

give him another year before deciding what to do with him. let him own in the A and if we have an injury up the middle, bring him up then

not sure if serious ... because THEY DID, I mean I get where you coming from 99/100 that extra second doesn't make a difference but in this case it just did and now they have 1 point in the standings they shouldn't have, that could very well be the difference in qualifying for the post season, home ice, or division lead. I don't understand why the NHL doesn't make them have an overtime period to start their next meeting, I believe the NBA did something similar a few years ago.
