Glad this team is moving away from guys like Kessler. Yappy Lappy and Ruffy, they were dark days am i right

There's a difference between pests and agitators like Kesler and Lapierre and cheap shot artists like Cooke, Torres and Marchand. Lucic falls in the later category but has a much worse temper than the other 3.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Yeah, I sure miss when we had Kesler and Lapierre...and were winning.

Sedins have better playoff PPG than Lucic. I don't want some garbage playoff choker on this team. Say no to Lucic.

Thing is, Lucic doesn't disappear in games where he doesn't produce points. Then again, he's now a 40 point player and I don't have interest in paying $7M long-term to a guy who's best days are already way behind him.

Guys who play his style tend to not be productive into their 30's. We'll end up paying Lucic for his past successes while receiving very little tangible return on investment.

Don't worry his mentoring ability will be well worth the extra $3 mil per year and full NMC....

Yea if lucic was ppg in the playoffs he wouldnt be a top 6 power forward he would be an elite top line winger arguably superior to burt.

On the canucks he will reach his prime playing with horvat if you think hirvat doesnt have more potential than krecj or bergeron ian afraid u know nothing of hockey

51 point/82 game average over the last 3 seasons. Will be 28 when his next deal kicks in.

He'll be a 40-50 point guy at best on his next deal.

Yes, Lucic doesn't disappear in games where he isn't producing points in the sense that everybody can see him beating his chest like a gorilla and whining about literally everything.

That's what I see as well and hey I could be completely wrong but I see a guy that more and more often is a non-factor in games and at times a detriment with his antics and declining speed/physical prowess.

He's a complimentary piece. Not a high-priced, long term foundational core piece.

Unlike 30 point superstar Brandon Sutter.

Already went through the 3 stages of fan grief a few times over on that one

Shows more passion than anyone on our team plays with. Aren't you tired of seeing the players roll over and die after we get scored against?

He's as much of a 40 point player as Sutter is a 20 goal scorer.

There's a difference between cheap shot artists who turtles afterwards like Cooke and Marchand and a willing fighter who isn't above taking cheap shots at opposing players like Lucic.

A player that gives nutshots is cowardly no matter what they do afterwords.

 

[Jay Cee]

Bring it on.

Nutshots = hard to play against.

You mean playoff leading scorer krecji and selke winning Bergeron? Is horvat the next toews? Even the biggest horvat fan or biggest canuck-homer won't make that claim. Well, except you I guess.

PS: best part was if you don't agree then "I am afraid u know nothing of hockey"

 

[y2kcanucks]

Let's be honest. The Milan Lucic of 2010-2013 I think we can all agree is a great player and is someone who would be extremely useful on our team.

It's the Milan Lucic of last season that I think is pretty much worthless and will be overpaid. Let's see what he does this year in LA, but another 40 point quiet season and I would stay far away from him. If he puts up 25+ goals and 60+ points and returns to being an unstoppable force on the ice then yeah, let's bring him in. But I doubt we ever see that player again.

 

[GrogZilla]

Next off-season is starting to feel like an upcoming dentist appointment.
It's gonna suck, it's gonna be painful & the very best you can hope for is to walk away after the fact saying "well that didn't hurt TOO bad"

Welcome to Vancouver, here have a 2 min roughing and a 10min misconduct.

Having a tantrum on the ice isn't showing passion. There are players that dig deep when times get tough and up their games, but Lucic seems to be a guy who more often than not loses composure when things don't go his way and he becomes a detriment to the team.
