Seriously, he can't be that bad? I've always thought he'd make for a good second line RW on a line with some size and with a goal scorer.

nah he is more a playmaker not a shooter..

Wah Wah Wah. NHL has a conspiracy. Wah

Nah. Just a favorable blip for the Nucks. Good teams take advantage of that though. Edmonton showed zero mercy to a destroyed Flames team last night. I expected this tonight.

Blatant hook on Tanev right there so I guess the refs changed teams all of a sudden.

enough diving calls

No, he's a good 2nd line RW. And I think he'll remain so for at least anther 4-5 years. He just represents our best opportunity to trade strength for a weakness so it's kind of baffling how he's still around.

Lowe must LOVE the guy.

Boy we're snake bitten in a way I wouldn't have thought possible after watching last night

Yeah I meant that he would be nice on a line with a shooter that has some size.

Honestly, I think I've seen more Oilers falling on the ice than the Canucks. And I'm the first Canuck fan to admit that the Canucks started the diving trend that now seems to be so popular around the league.

I honestly hope he is gone by Draft day.

Its all good friendo. No winning streak lasts forever. Like I said earlier, this one had letdown written all over it.

I'm pretty surprised that he hasn't been dealt yet, I understand wanting to keep around guys like Smyth and Horcoff for veteran leadership but Hemsky doesn't seem like much of a role model or leader for younger players but I could be wrong.

oops

Kassassin mode!

Insult to injury from our friend Zach Bertuzzi

nice Vodkabulin pass to Kakasian

I called a split on these games on the weekend. Wasn't sure how the wins would split.

If only the Canucks played with that much gumption more often.

I don't think he's a bad influence, but he's certainly been pouty in the past from time to time. I think it probably had something to do with probably being in chronic pain from one injury or the other

so Hemsky for anything Oilers can get?

Didnt like starting Bhulin in this one. Whole team was balls but they play different with Dubs back there.

Plus you knew that the Canucks would come out hard(giggity) after that last game against the Oilers, especially as a veteran team getting embarrassed by a young team.

SPAGHETTI IS FOR WINNERS female dogES!

For sure. No excuses, Oil got outplayed and outworked.

Motivated Nucks squad x Oilers on back half of btb after throttling their provincial rivals = tonight.

This should remind them that teams that are not the Flames minus Iggy,JBo etc. will not be easy. Back to reality.

not bad influence but not a Leader is time for another player to take over,I have notice Gagner and PRV offence have drop down since the Coach took Yak from that Line.
