Why Kenins over Gaunce? Is Gaunce injured or simply being outplayed by Kenins? Bad Goalie?
Because dumbass coach won't play Gaunce but will probably play Keninis because he was here last season.

Read in the paper today Gaunce was hurt. Beyond that...
And here's to hoping the Kenny bomb plays like he did last year, not this preseason.

Well when your team is soft as this has been this year yeah it is exciting. Henrik had more hits than Prust and Dorsett last game so its good to have someone in the line that can hopefully throw some good hits and possibly contribute to the offence too.

Spooky action at a distance
Holly puck I'm excited. I'm surprised, that this happened this quickly. Great, yasss, can't wait to see him play.

Super excited to see Ronnie back in the lineup. Put him with Bo and watch them go to work on the forecheck and create turnovers.

FINALLY! Send Virtanen to the World juniors and run with:
Sedin-Sedin-Hansen
Kenins-Horvat-Burrows
Baertschi-McCann-Vrbata
Higgins-Cracknell-Dorsett
Until Sutter comes back!

This means a couple of games of line testing and too many men penalties. It will be interesting to see who goes where.

Our forward lines actually look passable when deployed like this. I purposely left out Baerstchi for now, if Higgins or Prust get traded he can slot in there but right now he doesn't fit anywhere. I had high hopes for him but I'm expecting him to go the route of Vey now. Too little too late plus waivers.

No reason to break up Hansen and Twins for this, IMO. Considering Horvat's poor play, Kenins being a question-mark who may not be hitting his stride the way he was last year, and Hansen clicking with the twins far more than Burrows has, it makes no sense to break things up.
The better option in my mind is for Burrows to try to play the role Hansen did last year and hope Kenins and Horvat click. That would be a decent line either way, with a chance of similarly catching fire, and Hansen with the twins is doing great either way.

That's why he didn't report to Utica for the playoffs. Don't you remember that. He went home to heal up. Usually we don't hear why. most likely had an influence on his camp play and the resulting assignment to the Comets. Then he got hurt here.
He might not be what you all remember just yet. Question is if not, how does WD respond and do they send him back and start over with another Comet?

Well, he said he would be injured 6 weeks but then he went out to say he got injured for 14 weeks.
The thing with Kenins is that he really did not heal that injury for 100%. The remains of his injury tortured him in the preseason and in the Utica too.That is why he admitted that he did not deserve to play in Canucks from the start of the season.
He cured all injuries, played a game in the Utica and the recall was logical since Bo is struggling and has +/- -12
lets hope that Kenins will make Canucks a better hockey team! Cheers!
And I am not the real Kenins who tries justify myself

I hope you are right because the Kenins I saw in pre-season was the same east-west player I saw last season after he got hit really hard. Kenins stopped his heat seeking missle routine, started his overstickhandling routine and got benched as a result.

You sound like the real Ronalds ....... Hmmmmmm
Didn't see much lomotiving out there in his time back so far, and Virtanan and Kenins is about all we've got for players who play that sort of style. Man, remember when our guys played with HEART and PASSION and were tough to play against? It wasn't that long ago. Look at this and compare it to what we ice these days. So much has changed in a few years.
The Canucks threw more crushing hits in that single game than they've delivered in this entire season so far. The Hawks were up to their ears in blue and green jerseys.
Kenins, we need you buddy. We're now a one-line team and can't rely on the same skill level we used to have, so we have to start playing tougher and grittier. Finishing checks, and being strong positionally.
