GDT: GAME #38 - Canucks vs. Flames

[M A K A V E L I*]

Ah didn't see Kassian's move on Mak's highlights

It was embarrassing. Maybe I'll make a gif tomorrow, but it was just bad. Free shot in front of the net and he tries to do a 10x slower version of Bure's skate to stick move.

 

[PG Canuck]

I missed the days of Bure, but I can pick out who Cliff mother****ing Ronning is!

 

[Orca Smash]

*shrugs* I would definitely consider both Getzlaf/Perry better than the Sedins, Ryan better than Kesler and Selanne better than Roy.

I wouldn't think twice about it. Each of them are way bigger gamebreakers than our counterpart.
That is a fun fact.

I dont think I would trade kesler for ryan straight up. I would bet if you ask most ducks fans they will say deal if you offered to swap them.

I know the flack kesler gets on here, and not everyone will agree with this.

Hahaha really? Some people made it seem like a decent imitation.

That's the one I couldn't get on board with either. Kesler has way more of an effect on a game than Ryan does. Ryan is big and talented but he floats a lot and isn't effective if he's not scoring. Kesler produces at a similar rate but he's so much better in every other facet of the game.

Oh Kass you so silly

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

No wonder Vigneault looked pissed when he scored

 

[Orca Smash]

Not sure if kassians comments on the move were posted.

“To be honest, I saw that Pavel Bure clip during the TV timeout,” he explained. “I saw him put the puck in his feet and kick it back to his stick and, for some reason as I was skating to the net, I just decided to try it. I had never ever tried that move before and it didn’t work out too well for me. My skate didn’t even hit the ice and the puck went right underneath it.”

Chris Tanev will do ok

This is a bold perdiction.

 

[pahlsson]

lol is he talking to AV in this, i can only imagine what his face looked like at that moment

 

[jimmythescot]

I like that Kassian is willing to try something new, but he should probably practice it a few times before trying something like that again.

 

[StIllmatic]

LOL KASSIAN! Hahahaha that was very bad!

Thanks Mak!

This

"Hey thats cool, if Pavel can do it... I should also just go out there and skate way faster then every one too"

 

[Back in 94]

I applaud him for trying it.

 

[cotillion]

teehee that was horribad

 

[Win One Before I Die]

Had he scored that... it would have been the best goal of the year. Had someone crashed the net...

Shut up haters.

 

[yoss]

that explanation on the bench is priceless

sort of silly but hey i like that he tried it, nice tribute to Bure and would have brought the house down if it worked.

 

[deckercky]

I wonder if he'll practice it, at least for part of a shootout move.

I also wish they had a camera on Bure for a reaction.

 

[HighAndTight]

Kass' face and gestures on the bench are pure gold.

I love that he literally stepped over the puck.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Oh, Kass. It's just so hilarious that he forgot to leave his skate on the ice to kick the puck. I know my face was something like this when he did it:
