Hey even Calgary fans realize what's going to happen....


Calgary puck,

"That Kassian kid is going to be a pain in our arse for years to come....he is a genetically enhanced Clowe.

...and ugly too."

those shots go in past most goalies. post and in. not his positioning, great shots. and seriously??? best player in the league? who the f* said that? shake your head man, they've played 3 games.

I will say that move in the shootout was just sick.
- KABLOOEY

Agreed, kipper bit hard on that one.

Rolling rock in Cumberland? Isn't that sacrilegious? I thought you only had lucky there.
- abware

Bucking the trend. Expanding peoples pallets.

Can I get a comprehensive list of Canuck trolls? You guys seem to flip-flop from reasonable to unreasonable at the drop of the hat. I've only just got the Leafs posters straight...

He did the same thing to Lu in the training camp scrimmage. I have no idea why he wasn't in the top 3 shooters. AV is a franking not, D. Sedin, pleeeeeeeeeeeease.

He's drastically improved from last season though. Way more fit and in shape. He's literally gained two steps and is one of the best skaters out there. He's finally came to a professional organization. He's been taught how to be a pro.

It's been 3 games, he's been playing while half the NHL has been sitting at home, same with Cody, he has 2goals in 2 games. I'm not ready to crown him a bonafide number 1 center. I'm sure Kass will be a solid 25-30 goal guy, but 40? come on now, you guys are smarter than that

We only have one and he's serving a lifetime ban.

Just add a gram of mushrooms to your blender drink, 20 minutes later your hands look weird and you can't stop grinning!!!

........I dunno...maybe me? I'm just more of a homer than anything.

Playing with the Twins ....I'm not sure what top think.

You start the list and then we can offer additional suggestions.

Not trolling but don't any of you think the Nucks primarily Kass were taking liberties on Kipper.

That being said we are so soft now who is going to do anything about it.
- KABLOOEY

His game is going hard to the net so of course there is going to be instances where he crosses the line. Not sure about 'taking liberties'.

Hmmm, how's that going? I'm from C.R. and a lot of people there don't accept change.

Ill just say this, if it wasn't for Foligno, no way we would have let him go, he was way too talented to let go

I really don't see how a goalie is supposed to stop an open slot, quick release, off the post and in....Maybe give credit where credit is due, both Tanguay and Backlund had perfect shots there. Not much a goalie can do.
- Boinker

I disagree; he should have stopped the first Calgary goal. Elite goalies make that save. Not worried about Schneider though -- more about the Canucks scoring (lack of). Kassian was good...and I'm still not convinced. I hope he keeps playing well and consistently so. He has a long way to go. Schroeder did not impress at all. Now, is it just how I view it or does Burrows look completely (exaggeration) dis-interested? That would be a worry. The Sedins are picking up on the way Garrison plays, but Edler doesn't seem to get it yet. Garrison knows when and to where to go and also stays responsibly defensively. Looks like a good move by Gillis there.

Lots of new people moving here.

He probably will be top 3 next time.

I said it all along Kassian has a lot more potential than Hodgson. Hodgson will be a great pp player and offensive zone player. But he's not the type of player you win championships with. He's not hard to play against. Kassian is a f*cking handful. He's gained two steps this year. All that time with the Sedins in the offseason must have really gotten to him. He has the potential to be a game breaker. Looks like the Sedins have found a new linemate. Burrows has passed the torch. That bodes well for the depth of our lineup.

Booth Kesler Burrows (maybe Burrows is the playmaker we've been looking for, for Kesler)
- Boinker

If Kassian only had Hodgson's hockey smarts and vision....

Nice win last night and a huge trade today...for my baseball team. I know this is a hockey blog but I'm happier than a pig in poop right now. My Braves just got Justin Upton. They are gonna have a stacked line up this season.

Simmons
Heyward
JUpton
Freeman
BJUpton
McCann
Uggla
Johnson

What's a great morning, minus 36.... Looks like the dogs will be going out on the balcony

Car won't start, no work

Kassian is not only becoming the best power forward in the game, but maybe one of the best players in the game. He can score, hit, pass and his defensive game is impressive. If he keeps playing with the Sedins I think he can make a serious push for 40 or 50 goals this year. IF he keeps playing with the Sedins. He is a total force out there. Kassian can score at will. Something we haven't seen in a long time.

Hahahaha
