Ugh. Rather he just continued to play well in the AHL. Why ruin a good thing down there? Hope it doesn't frig up his confidence.

I haven't gone to a game since game 5 vs LA and I didn't even pay for that. Before that, I think it was the 2011 season. Not worth the money at all.

Not sure if you want to take Schroeder out of the line-up. He's actually good against Flames

I'm happy. As someone else said earlier, this is an NHL prospect we're talking about, not a baby who needs to be coddled. The main thing is he's playing really well in the AHL right now and deserved a callup. I'm sure if you ask him, he cares a helluva lot more about getting a stint in the NHL than continuing his AHL hot streak.

I think the concern could be that it's possible the entire dressing room is pretty toxic at the moment, and it's probably best we keep our prospects away from it.

Perhaps the Canucks can borrow "The Isolator" booth from the UK game show "The 64,000 Dollar Question" and have it installed in the dressing room?
And when he is on the bench replace his helmet with the "Isolator Helmet":
Plus, he's like you or me . . . he gets paid a hell of a lot more for his time in the NHL. What's not to like? That's the carrot: the pay, Vancouver, and the Show itself. Reward the guy a little for his recent success.
He lives and works on the farm in Utica. That's the stick.

Excited to see Jensen. Hopefully it doesn't derail the confidence he's built up over the last stretch. But if he can bring a hot hand to the team, it'd be a welcome sight.

Considering the season is over, I think this is the right time to call Jensen up. He has a ton of confidence right now and deserves the reward of an NHL call-up.
I hope they give him a prominent top six minutes and let him run with it. The NHL experience can only really benefit his game, especially considering he has a legitimate shot at a top nine forward spot next season.

Well....I was hoping we could just tank shamelessly like we were doing....but at least the hopelessness that is infecting the Vancouver Canucks should probably bring Jensen down as well. We can't have him playing too well and ruining the tank job. But maybe out of this he can play well and hopefully gain some confidence to make the team next year.

NHL prospects don't need any sheltering? There's a reason players thrust into the NHL when they're not ready have a tendency to bust. Good, he's happy with the callup. Not sure it benefits him right now though as he's just finding his game in the AHL. Why mess with his confidence there to call him up to a team that scores no goals?
