Post-Game Talk: Bruins 4 at Canucks 0

[monster_bertuzzi]

JV has been pretty underwhelming since he was drafted.

Shane Doan really lit the NHL on fire as a rookie didn't he.

 

[Kaboomer]

If this continues WD has lost the team. Bring up Travis Green as interim head coach for the rest of the year and offer WD the door or Utica. See if TG can get Sven to play and bring up others that can produce. Last chance as Canucks for probably Sven, Grenier, Jensen,etc so you may as well give them a chance to play. Waiver or trade some vets to make room. If TG, shows he has it, great. If not, you've got a great pick and you hire when more coaching choices may be available.

 

[The Jesus*]

Bob Mckenzie's poll of 10 NHL scouts did. But obviously that doesn't mean as much as what HF Canucks thinks.

Appeal to crowds >>> Appeal to authority amirite?

At the time of the draft. Since being drafted his lackluster play would obviously change opinions. That's what more information does. At the draft he was a big, strong, fast kid who scored 40 something goals. Since...

seems SUPER logical

Some guys take awhile to get it going.

Shane Doan, heck even Markus Naslund

Possibly. But I dont wanna sound pretentious because Im totally not, but I havent been wrong about a single thing since joining this site. I think the best way to judge a person's knowledge is by the quality of their predictions/statements. I've been bang on about everything, even putting up with countless trolling and ridicule to try and be a voice of reason.

Vrbata sucks - You have no idea what you're talking about
Hamhuis is declining fast - You have no idea what you're talking about
Virtanen wont produce at the nhl level - You have no idea what you're talking about
Willie should bench the kids, the kids arent the answer now #supportwillie #benchthekids #icenhlplayers- You have no idea what you're talking about

Now the new one appears to be:

We should consider moving Horvat for a good young defenseman if the opportunity presents itself - You have no idea what you're talking about

Get back to me when Im wrong about something.

Vrbata scored 31 goals last year. So clearly he doesn't suck.
Hamhuis is declining fast never disagreed with you there.
How in the world can you see into the future that Virtanen is a bust? Please. You are wrong.
Willie is a terrible coach.

Well what an idiot Prust is. Amazing really. THe one thing he was brought here to do, head the mentor-pede, and he looks like a complete idiot doing it.

Thought we learned our lesson during the game against LA when Torts was here.

Prust is just a placeholder for Lucic. Can't wait for the real nut shot specialist to sign here.

What does this have to do with what I said?

You've been proven right that Virtanen *won't* produce in the NHL?

19 career NHL games is sufficient to make that statement?

And to what degree *won't* he produce? We talking zero career goals? Or we talking won't ever score 30?

Cause you're giving yourself a ton of latitude by speaking in exaggerated vagaries rather than specifying a range or ceiling.

JV has been pretty underwhelming since he was drafted.

So was Markus Naslund, Todd Bertuzzi, Daniel Briere, Ryan Kesler...

Want more?

I'm still upset we gave up on Stojanov

Dont even wanna talk about Virtanen. I never said he was a bust, I said he was an awful pick at 6th overall. Which every single stitch of evidence suggests he was.

Im not the biggest fan of Willie either, but benching the kids to try and coax management into sending them down and icing an NHL team was the right call. Are you enjoying this season? I sure as hell am not. And now the kids are in a locker room that looks like it's full of mopers and could soon embrace a losing culture. Willie even eluded to that during the presser. He did the right thing during the preseason. Even he knew better than management.

 

[Jimson Hogarth*]

Would like to see a better physical spark and response. Team needs more effort although it's tough to muster up a full 60 when your goalie lets in the 1st shot.

All in all team is outmatched- both out-skilled and out muscled and tonight the effort wasn't near good enough.

 

[CanaFan]

So how should he have gone in the 20's? Time travel?

Lucic is a hell of a player. I hope we get him for Vrbata's 5 mil.

 

[PG Canuck]

legit lol'ing at this caller right now

 

[Josepho]

Baertschi shoulda played tonight. IK he gets **** on often, but as I said before, his PP60 is tied for 4th on the team (in fact as of tonight with McCann playing more minutes with no results, he might have even slipped into 3rd).

 

[The Jesus*]

Lucic is a hell of a player. I hope we get him for Vrbata's 5 mil.

Yeah, Im on board the Lucic train too. If we could somehow land Johansen, we could be a real team next year.

 

[ATypicalCanadian]

Lol a TSN Bruins fan wants to "see Prust hung high" and compared the Canucks to "Worms."

He's definitely write about that. Hamhuis is playing worse than Bieksa did against Calgary last year. I wouldn't want to retain Hamhuis at any cost once his contract runs out this summer.

Pathetic people.

I'm fine with the Virtanen pick, Im more disappointed that Benning "target" Sbisa, Bonino in the Kesler trade.

We needed that 10th and 24th pick. Why did we trade Garrison for a 2nd and flip it for Vey? Why trade another 2nd rounder for the euro bound Baertschi.

Why sign Miller to that putrid 3year/18 million dollar deal.

The Clendening, Forsling trade showed me how slow Benning really is. Do we have any pro scouts? or is that just another task that Benning and Linden have to do on their spare time??

10th and Theodore were probably never on the table. Unless straight across for Kes. That's my speculation on it anyways.
