See, the postage stamp thing is at least a direct shot at Hirsch, so I sort of get that. But I've never even talked with him!

He's seen the comics. It's as simple as that. It's nearly a direct shot because he spends most of his day on Benning's lap.
Wow, you know, just a real great job by the General Manager of our team, you know, to not only trade away this guy, but uh, to get a real good foundational player in return. This is a General Manager, you know, who should be around for a real long time, uh, probably should sign a big extension real soon.

Yep but I just wanted to make a point.

I have never understood the point of this.

Looks like the Honey Badger is calling it a career. One of our best late round, flier draft picks ever.

He had a great career for such a late round draft pick. Happy retirement Jannik.

Sucks to read when hes an improvement over many of our excessive plethora of bottom six forwards. Happy retirement to one of my fav Canuck forwards post-cap era.
Farewell to the dulcet-voiced Dane, one of my favourite supporting cast members from day 1. The time he crosschecked the linesman on a faceoff is lowkey one of the funniest hockey-related things I've ever seen

Hansen would still be better than half the guys who floated around in our bottom 6 this last season.
*edit* And also Goldobin.
Confirmed with Link: - Erik Gudbranson has been traded to the Pittsburgh Penguins for Tanner Pearson
Yeah, someone sure showed us.
All that physicality and intimidation reeeeeeeeeeeally worked wonders for the Pens as they crashed and burned in 4 straight.

take a wild guess who said:

"The professor" played over 900 games in the NHL (Canucks 11th round pick).
Patrick Sundstrom is other 9th round pick (prior to Hansen) that played 600+ games.
Skriko was another late round pick.
Granted, there were far fewer teams then so a late round pick in say in the 80s would be a much higher overall pick than when Hansen was drafted.
Hansen, who was consistently underpaid, was one season away from earning a huge pay day. Don't know what happened. A great Canuck who scored some big goals while he was here.

Loved what Hansen brought. Was underpaid but that was thanks in part of the ntc. To me, a very much valued player and something the current roster is in dire need of.
The league non-response still perplexes me to this day. No suspension, not even a penalty, no upset from the referees, not even an explanation from what I can recall... It was like the NHL decided it just didn't happen.

Torts happened....
His appearance with Kesler and Burrows on the third line made me set my alarm to 4 am for every Vancouver homegame, so I could start the day with a good game of hockey before going to work. Miss those days.

Hansen said to Danish news, that he wanted to play, but the style he plays, took massive tolls on his body - He said his body just did not want to do what he wanted to, and also that he wakes up every morning with pains all over the body.
He is back in Manitoba with his Canadian wifw Karen and their twins.
They plan to stay in Canada.
Maybe one day Hansen gets an office job with you guys.

Too bad about the disappointing end to his career, was great for us and underrated for a long time. One of the best 3rd liners in the league in his prime.

He always said he was very attached to both Winnipeg and Vancouver. I seem to remember him saying in an interview that he and his family “weren’t done with Vancouver”, hinting that they planned to retire here. I hope they do - would be nice to see him lace up with the Canucks Alumni.
Bring Jannick Hansen back as a coach to teach this team how to forecheck.
