[7seven]

btw. I wonder if CoHo will play with Vanek/Pomm.. CoHo's first test tonight would then be the Getzlaf/Perry/Ryan line :D

It sounds like he'll likely start centering the 2nd line with Ennis and Stafford, though I suspect he'll make his way sooner than later with Vanek and Poms because Roy hasn't really worked well with them this year and Ruff loves to shuffle lines.

Cody might be a bit tired though, he's been on the road with the Canucks since Feb 19, playing 5 games on the road, then flew to Buffalo from Phoenix to deal with immigration/work visa issues, then right back on a plane to Anaheim to meet up with the Sabres for a game tonight, Sabres are also just starting a 4 game west coast trip.

Cody now to wear #19, he was given #12 yesterday but switched to 19 today.

[Blah_Teggie]

The more I think about the CoHo trade the more I think he asked to be traded. I'm not saying he demanded a trade but asked nicely if MG can do it. Why? CoHo isn't stupid. He knows who's he's playing behind at centre meaning he'll never get first line minutes, first line linemates, first line PP minutes etc. It's all about money. Hockey players are one concussion, one bad hit from behind, one bad year from being in the minors. Cody probably wants to cash in before any of that happens. As a Canuck, he'll probably top out at 50-55 pts for the next 4-5 years and that's how much the Canucks are gonna pay him for. Anybody who knows they're better than that, can do more would switch jobs. No different for a hockey player.

[ShyGuy]

I doubt he asked to be traded. He's still young and has plenty of time to get the big contracts later in his year. He may never get a better chance at winning the cup than with the Canucks this year.

Plus he did sound choked when he heard the news.

[MG1]

concussion, one bad hit, etc............

To avoid it, play less minutes? :troll:

He just wants to play as much as possible, because he's good and everyone knows it. I wish him well. Too bad he's not a Canuck right now.........

[MG1]

I doubt he asked to be traded. He's still young and has plenty of time to get the big contracts later in his year. He may never get a better chance at winning the cup than with the Canucks this year.

If anything, he'd be choked at that.

[highfive]

Apparently I heard on team 1040 that Cody's agent Ritch Winter refused all comments with media but was willing to tweet on twitter. He did say Cody had a conversation with AV saturday night before AV and Gillis had their big meeting. It was about ice time apparently. So whatever happened in that meeting lead to the trade?

Honestly all the best to Cody. We have no use for him when we have a hart/art ross centre in Henrik and a Selke in Kesler. Kassian and Gragnani is going to be better off for us during these upcoming years.

[spoon.ek9]

think of it like cory's situation.

does he want to be a starter? yes.
does he want to play a hell of a lot more? yes.
but is he happy where he is? yes.
why? because he's on a winning team that has a real good shot at winning a stanley cup.

if anyone wanted a trade, it wasn't cody himself. i can absolutely understand his family wanting him to be closer and his dad wanting him to get more ice time but if being sent from a #1 team to a 12th place team is worth all that, they are seriously stupid.


but.... now that it's happened, spread your wings and fly high CoHo!! :alone:


7seven: please give us CoHo updates as much as possible, it would be highly appreciated :toot:

[RRxtar]

havent we learned as canuck fans that not every player is out there to cash in? the core guys in vancouver took discounts to play here because they absolutely love playing for the organization, the team, and the city. and they are on a winning team committed to winning and have a shot at winning the cup, and are positioning themselves at being a powerhouse for years to come.

ehrhoff/jovo or burrows/higgins/hammer/hansen/sedins/ and to stretch it, edler, kesler?

To some players; financial security is more important than winning a championship. More money would make life better for their family. Some players rather win the Cup instead.

As much as Gillis didn't want to move CoHo I think him and AV agreed it would be the best move to do it and fetch a pwf. After getting manhandled last year in the playoffs, MG already tried to get big bodies in the team (eg., mancari, bitz, etc.). After giving some of those big bodied players a chance, seems like only Bitz is sort of working. But they wanted the insurance of another big bodied player and since we are so deep in centermen, CoHo became expendable.

I didn't want to see CoHo leave either. But if the addition of Kassian can help us with a Cup. Like ppl say, true pwf(with size) don't come very often.

Perhaps the Canucks can try to use Kassian on the pp infront of the net, like the hawks did with Buffy.

From Twitter account @SabresBuzz: Burke offered Schenn for Hodgson straight up, was told that Hodgson was off limits. Darcy swooped in and made deal by w/Kassian

[sh0n]

I want to chime in on the Cody Hodgson trade.

When I heard the trade, my heart sunk a little bit. Overall the Canucks put in alot of time to develop Cody to where he is today and he is really becoming a very decent player. You need a player like Cody on a team to win with - as you can see he was pretty clutch in the bigger regular season games we played (Detroit, Chicago, Boston - goals in each game if I remember correctly).

However, the moot point is such that Cody has nowhere to go being stuck behind Hank and Kesler for the next 5 years. It's true that Championship teams you'll want all the depth and position you get running down all 4 line's centermans. Look at Penguins when they won - Crosby, Malkin, Staal.

I think the main and general concern that was Cody was never going to develop into a defensively responsible 2 way shutdown kinda C on the 3rd line. He is more or a 1A/1B type of C with offense and intangibles.

Did we get hosed on the deal? Yes I believe we did as of now. We did sell Cody on the high getting some decent players in Kassian & Gragnani.

Do I think we'll benefit from the deal? Yeah we dealt from organizational strength and got a few players that may make an impact in the near future.

Also liked the Paulson trade.

One thing I'm not happy about is how the fuck is May Ray still on the team. Guy's a flopping deer all over the ice.

If anyone is interested in reading more about Cody's "trade request", check out his agent's twitter.

If Cody didn't requested a trade or not, his agent needs to learn to shut the fuck up.

This was his last tweet.
Cody loved Vancouver, the vanc fans and the city. Team had different goals than Cody. The trade supports that. But it was a surprise.

Different goals? ice time? being surprised to a trade and different goals are two different things. What goals did Cody had? Team's goal is to win the cup.

[iwantaskyline]

Apparently his agent had a meeting with Gillis about his icetime.

wonder how much shopping MG did with cody.. always gotta wonder what else we could have got for him..

[Tim Budong]

Trade is done. Im sad
gotta look forward no matter what

A big bruising PWF takes more time to develop than skilled player like CoHo
Its not that the Canucks didnt give CoHo a chance on the wing to develop either. It didnt work out and like any business matter, things had to be done in order to advance

IF infact Coho could play the wing efficiently, he would have been a very good second line winger

Much rather have Kassian than Schenn. I've always considered Schenn overrated. Decent enough d-man but his hype is a product of being in a hockey mad, give-results-now market that salivated at a big, young defenseman. I'd rather have Kassian than Schenn.

And re: MayRay's spinorama...

He went into it too timid and hesitated, so Smith didn't bite fully and didn't slide out of position. He probably did his homework but still, Raymond went in too slow and spun too slow as well so it was totally saveable. Smith probably had a good chance to stop it but it was as much Raymond not doing it properly as Smith's goaltending ability (although he was top notch against the Nucks).

[fliptuner]

MayRay's spin move stinks anyways. If he pulled it off as smooth as Bert's, the puck goes in.

Bert also roofs the backhand, if he tried to just slide it in ala Raymond he would have been stopped too. The spinorama is a bullshit trick play that should only be brought out once in a blue moon just to mess with the goalie. Raymond has done it how many times this season? As soon as he went out wide I said "ah fuck here comes that stupid spinorama" to my roommate and that's exactly what he did. Predictable is easy to stop.

I was trying to explain earlier that it MIGHT have had something to do with how Raymond skated in, making Smith easily predicting the spinorama.
Or maybe not. I'm sure Smith did his homework, buy Raymond has a bagful of dumb (unsuccessful) moves too that involve coming in from the side.
Either way, Bertuzzi would have scored on a low shot anyway in that video.
If you compare the two shootouts, Smith didn't have his right skate against the right post, therefore Smith slid out of position, like every other goalie.
But players that go high on the spinorama pretty much seals the deal.
Because playing deep in net won't save that still.

Just stop putting Raymond in the shootout. He's kind of a one trick pony. Burrows, Edler, Kesler are sound.

Most Canuck players as of current roster haven't displayed a lot of consistency (besides maybe Edler). But Raymond wasn't any better or worse than the rest.
Chances of Raymond scoring with the spinorama was very high rated. Even though it got stopped, it never failed until yesterday.
And it was as one trick pony as Burrows fake, backhand move. 99% of the time when Burrows didn't use this move, he wouldn't score.
Kesler likes to mix things up, which is good... but he's only 20%

So is being a one trick pony a good thing or bad? Cause it sounds like it is a bad thing for MayRay at 22% this season but a good thing for Edler who is 42.9% on the one and only move he has shown.

Nevermind. Basically i'm saying if the goalie plays deep in net, he has a good chance to save the "low shot" spinorama. Given he can reach the post.

Azn, I don't even know where to begin with you.
Basically, Smith played MayRay to do the spinorama, and co-incide with the fact that the move was poorly executed didn't go high on the backhand, that led to MayRay being stopped. All he had to do was keep the puck in tighter and go roof daddy and that would have been in and we wouldn't be having this discussion about MayRay being a "one trick pony".

It's bad if you're Mason Raymond.

I see nothing wrong with being a one trick pony.
Raymond and Burrows' sucess rate comes from their go-to moves.

I'm not sure why people are complaining about Raymond failing at the
spinorama because it's predictable... It's been 100% successful until last night.

I'm not sure if quick snapshot can be counted as a go-to move.
Unless they are being aimed at the same spots every time.

But as far as predictability goes, snap shots are hard to read...
there's nothing to read from. The goalie can see a snap shot coming,
but has no idea where the shooter's aiming. Which is why Linden was so good.

Obviously the best shooters are the ones that can switch things up and have more than one "go-to" move.

I was under the impression we were talking about Canuck shooters specifically.
In this situation, I see nothing wrong with a one-trick-pony (Burrows, Raymond) doing their almost 100% move vs their almost 0% moves.

Noir, you said it has been stopped on more than one occasion. You're not referring to Shannon's attempt, are you? Or are you talking about a non-NHL game?

What?! Why do I got to prove it to you?

1. I showed you a video and there was another instance last night. And that's all you were asking for previously. Now that you haven't just been proven wrong once, but twice, you still refuse and ask further evidence? What's stopping you from asking more once more evidence surface?

2. I'm talking about NHL and otherwise. And take it from a guy who grew up in minor hockey (albeit never juniors but house leagues) and currently plays 3 to 4 games a week in 2 or more different teams plus pickups. (SumAznGuy can vouch for it, I played for one of his teams and won a championship together with him, and am currently playing against his team in the local beer leagues).

And in your case you only started playing no? It's kind of a bit odd when you say you've never seen X and Y stopped and therefore deem X or Y move as unstoppable since:

a) you just started playing
b) any hockey exposure beyond that is limited to how much within an 82 game season you can watch
c) NHL shootouts really only started a handful of seasons ago

So to declare that "you've never seen it been stopped before", you're speaking from an EXTREMELY EXTREMELY small sample size and you got proven wrong within games of your initial argument, TWICE. And BTW, just because you may be personally having trouble saving spin-o-ramas doesn't mean they're unstoppable. Just like Burrows supposedly unstoppable forehand backhand deke, all it takes is for a goalie not to bite too hard on your initial fake.

Why do you think Burrows and Raymond's 5-hole shootouts went in recently? Because goalies are starting to read that these guys don't shoot (they fake) on the first move.


Which also if you think about it... debunks your 1 trick pony theory to an extent. Because as you can see, now some goalies are starting to read the Canuck's players tendencies; and considering how well we know Raymond, even we as audiences could see the spin-o-rama coming a mile away when he approached his attempt in an aggressively wide angle.

edit: whoops. i guess game is not done. http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/boxscore?gid=2012022925

[jeedee]

What?! Why do I got to prove it to you?

1. I showed you a video and there was another instance last night. And that's all you were asking for previously. Now that you haven't just been proven wrong once, but twice, you still refuse and ask further evidence? What's stopping you from asking more once more evidence surface?

2. I'm talking about NHL and otherwise. And take it from a guy who grew up in minor hockey (albeit never juniors but house leagues) and currently plays 3 to 4 games a week in 2 or more different teams plus pickups. (SumAznGuy can vouch for it, I played for one of his teams and won a championship together with him, and am currently playing against his team in the local beer leagues).

And in your case you only started playing no? It's kind of a bit odd when you say you've never seen X and Y stopped and therefore deem X or Y move as unstoppable since:

a) you just started playing
b) any hockey exposure beyond that is limited to how much within an 82 game season you can watch
c) NHL shootouts really only started a handful of seasons ago

So to declare that "you've never seen it been stopped before", you're speaking from an EXTREMELY EXTREMELY small sample size and you got proven wrong within games of your initial argument, TWICE. And BTW, just because you may be personally having trouble saving spin-o-ramas doesn't mean they're unstoppable. Just like Burrows supposedly unstoppable forehand backhand deke, all it takes is for a goalie not to bite too hard on your initial fake.

Why do you think Burrows and Raymond's 5-hole shootouts went in recently? Because goalies are starting to read that these guys don't shoot (they fake) on the first move.


Which also if you think about it... debunks your 1 trick pony theory to an extent. Because as you can see, now some goalies are starting to read the Canuck's players tendencies; and considering how well we know Raymond, even we as audiences could see the spin-o-rama coming a mile away when he approached his attempt in an aggressively wide angle.

I think you've beaten this shootout topic like a horse already. If I have to read 5 more pages about spinoramas or Raymond being in the shootout......

I sure hope so cause I would be chanting if I was at the game!

[jeedee]

As much as I love the canucks, I really hope CoHo lights us up this saturday

Sorry, but you don't sound like a Canuck fan,
you sound more like a huge Hodgson fan.
I am too disappointed to see him moved, but I am
a *much* bigger fan of the team than I am of any
individual player - and as a huge Canuck fan, I will
*always* want what's best for my team, over any
one player. As such, the last thing I want is to see
any opposition player come here and light the Canucks up.

Like I said, I was disappointed seeing Cody traded,
but as an actual *Canucks fan* I want my
team to win, and I want to see Kassian have a huge
game against the Sabres as Cody - and his team -
get shutdown. That's what a fan of the *team*
should want. Cody is no longer a Canuck... Best of
luck to him, but Kassian is a Canuck now, and that
means as a fan of this team I want the guy who's a
Canuck now to be the better player.
Anyone actually wanting to see Cody succeed at the
cost of this team, is less of a fan of the team than they are of the individual player.

I've rambled on long enough, but I'm just sick of reading posts from people wanting Kassian to fail, that he's the next Pyatt/Isbister/Bernier and how this trade is the next Neely2.0 / Stajonov/Naslund trade.

A true fan always puts their team
ahead of any individual player.

It's 5 pages plus because for people who thought that X or Y move is infallable, their world is imploding and it's redifining how they think "hockey" works as whole. Similar to what people must feel like when they discovered the world was not flat in those days.

Just not when playing against the Canucks. When it comes to playoffs, however, gloves are off.



EDIT: haha... beat me to it. gotta type faster, LOLOLOLOL

[highfive]

I'm listening to 1040, and people were all comparing how CoHo was the next Linden or Yzerman. Give it a break....Cody will be a good hockey player but at the moment, he's no where close to what those players are. And I hear Gary Valk saying he score big goals...he scored against Boston and became game winners or game tying goals. I disagree, you score "big" goals in the playoffs. Burrows score big goals. That's why he's MONSTERRRRRR..

Dude, give it a break. You obviously feel you have superior hockey knowledge than 'us kind of fans', and you feel like we are less deserving to be called a fan than yourself.

Read between the lines, when anybody says anything on the internet is a for sure with a 0% chance of failing, do you take that literally? Like 'we' said, we would rather see Raymond do the spinorama or Burrows go to his backhand shelf deke because their success with these moves is probable, whereas when they try their other moves they are IMprobable. Hope the terminology I'm using is ok for you, as they are no longer infallable. Lucky for me my world hasn't started imploding yet. If you feel differently, fine. Put in your 2 cents, that's the end of that. No need to put yourself on a soapbox and everyone else below you.

Seriously, stop taking the shootouts so seriously. You go enjoy your interpretation of the game, I'll go enjoy mine. And we'll both hope that they can finish it in regulation or OT. lol

Looked bad but clean hit. He gets Letang in the shoulder and chest after Letang puts himself in a vulnerable position. Tucks his elbows in, feet on the ice, clean hit.

The only problem is he makes no effort to play the puck but the puck is in the general area so it isn't interference. However, I think that's something the NHL might want to look at...guys looking for the big hit rather than the puck.

Because I do. And it's not that hard when your competing against statements like the spin-o-rama is virtually unstoppable. Secondly, there was no reading between the lines. AznNightmare was dead on serious and so were you before you quickly recanted regarding Burrows forehand-backhand.

So don't go backtracking and try and repainting this unpleasant situation for what it was not.

Personally, I was livid when MayRay did the spin move, becuz clearly Smith has the position and didnt bite on anything when he moved in

But its a SO loss, we got a point.
It took the nucks 6 rnds earlier in the month to beat PHX in SO, and everyone knows that the SO isnt really the strong suit on this squad.

Just be glad that the Canucks havent exactly been "losing" outright because we havent exactly seen lights out hockey from the team as of late

[punkwax]

Yep, all this Hodgson talk has taken attention off of the fact that the Canucks haven't played really well in quite some time. I guess its also disguised by the fact that we're still getting points in the majority of games. With playoffs around the corner here, they had better pick it up...

Oshie is one solid guy. Rocked Edler earlier and everyone is having a tough time handling him.

[MG1]

When's the last time Hammer scored a goal?

[Not really racist!]

burrows is legit..

[xeryusx]

I don't know whether to call this game "tight" or just plain boring. With the exception of Burrows' goal, #9 and the always entertaining Lapi taking bodies after bodies. GCG!

I'm liking the energy (3rd period at least). Lappy's trying to hit everything lol. I really like how Kassian has a good habit of tucking his elbow in on all his hits. Higgins is a fucking work-horse as usual.

[sonick]

Raymond is playing pretty poorly tonight.

Burrows = MVP

[spoon.ek9]

woot woot! #1 still and a shutout for luu :toot:

[punkwax]

Glad they didnt lose the shutout in the last couple minutes like they've done so many times in the past.

[jeedee]

Raymond is playing pretty poorly tonight.

TONIGHT? He's been playing poorly all year long.. :pokerface:

[MG1]

Yup........... I was thinking same thing. Then go into OT or shootout and losing.

That trend is now over.............. a la Burrows stick breaking.


Helps when opposition is limited to 7 shots on goal in the 3rd.

[spideyv2]

Lol at the stoner references on sportsnet

How many giveaways for Raymond in the 3rd period alone?

I'm also sick of hearing about him "losing an edge"

[MG1]

TONIGHT? He's been playing poorly all year long.. :pokerface:

Still not bad for a guy who almost had his body snap into two.

[Not really racist!]

Lappy was harsh trollin this game :thumbsup:

10 hits yee

[Hondaracer]

cody who?

[pure.life]

Lappiere and Kassian are the new Fulton and Portman! Bash Brotha's for the win!

[b0unce. [?]]

so good!

[MG1]

Garry Valk talking about Kassian giving the Canucks some courage. That is so right on. Lappy is like, "I'm lovin' it!" When you have a tough guy on the ice, it has a positive effect on everybody.

[pastarocket]

It was a good playoff style victory for the home team. Vancouver played well defensively against a stingy St. Louis game. Luu played particularly well in the first period when the Blues were out shooting Vancouver by a wide margin.

It's these tight defensive games that the team must win in order to be successful in the playoffs. -starting to see some chemistry build up between Lapierre and Kassian.

Ten hits between Lappy and Kassian. -liked seeing Henrik hit that bum Sobotka near the end of a shift. Then Kesler hits that player back to help out the captain.

Now that is what I call sticking up for your team mates. Canucks aren't taking any crap from anyone!

[xeryusx]

It used to be JUST Lapi runnin around taking the body. But with Kassian in the picture, the Bash Brothers indeed! Out of the team, I'm fast becoming a Lapi fan more and more. Hopefully with Kassian on the ice, Lapi steps it up even more.

Waiting for full highlights of the game :alone:

[Obsideon]

Kassian is pretty solid, good hits, lots of scoring chances. It'll just be a matter of time until he buries one. Also can't wait soon enough for him to level someone (a la Chris Neil to Boychuk)

http://youtu.be/iOnXZpPwkoU

If Kassian can do that to Marchand, this CoHo trade will have more than made up for it!

[xeryusx]

Canucks aren't taking any crap from anyone!

I cannot wait until the Canucks plays the Bruins. Until that rat bastard Marchand tries his fucking antics. The team is looking like a better version of last season's. Not as much skill but definitely higher on physicality. GADDDDD I love hockey.

I also can't wait for the people that doubted the CoHo trade to convert and "believe" in MG again :)

This has been probably discussed to death and I apologize in advance guys but..

I'm looking at picking up tix for Sats game w/ Buffalo off of craigslist..some advice on how not to get scammed?

[kwy]

Meet up and exchange in person. Pretty obvious, but if you get a response involving online money transfer then tell them to f off. I must have hit about 6 scammers before I finally found legit tickets for the last Leafs/Nucks game.

They're often season or partial seasons tickets, so if thats the case it's ideal to see them get ripped off the book. Take a look at the tickets and compare them to old stubs or something to make sure they look legit.
