Great game by Hansen, Tanev, Luongo, Hamhuis and Schroeder.
Sedins still aren't there yet, even though they setup the winner, they were flat up until that point.
Can someone cut out tanev and make me an avatar? PLEASE
I agree with you on everything I would add great game by Edler if it wasn't for him and Bieksa's cough up there. Im really hoping Sedins pick it up a notch or two but i said from the beginning of the season it will take them 10 games to get in their groove!
Also Garrison Might be the most overpaid player in the league hes so awkward. Bad skater bad hands. Not overly physical. Offseason Buyout?
Boy could this team use a guy like Visnovsky on the powerplay.
Did I hear right during the broadcast that our pp has gone 1 for 26?!?!?
I don't know why, but I just feel that when the Canucks get Booth and Kesler back from their injuries we're going to have more jump in our step. Just get points, get to the playoffs, welcome back Booth and Kesler, possibly welcome a new top six winger from trade and go ham like the Kings.
Would help quite a bit but our defense is just set. You're not gonna get rid of any of our top 4 and Ballard-Tanev has been our best pairing
I am amazed to see the team do so well while missing two of our top 6 forwards. Great game tonight.
Yep, means that Garrison needs to be a contributer on the PP.
Luongo is playing some of his best hockey in years, right now. No slow start, no rust, just steady work with flashes of brilliance. No way the team can trade this guy.

Just wanted to say that it shocks me to feel this way, but I'm really happy for Luongo. Watching him tonight he looked like he was having fun. He seems like such a good-natured person and the way he has handled the goaltending controversy shows real class.
I think you should keep him.
It will be interesting to see how the Canucks PP unit sets up when everyone is healthy.
Considering how awful they have looked, I think all options should be explored. I suspect the Sedins, Kesler and Edler are all locks for the first unit. The final spot probably comes down to Hamhuis and Kassian, and you would have to give the edge to Hamhuis.
Bieksa/Garrison are locks for the second unit, with the final three spots likely coming down to Kassian, Schroeder, Booth and Burrows.
Although in reality, the first thing they should do is fire Newell Brown. His inability to make PP scheme adjustments is the real problem with the PP.

I could but it wouldn't be as good as if Zombo got his hands on it.
