Does the assist at least buy him some time...
- jribout

(frank) that. That trade was almost as bad as Luongo's contract.

Kind of what I expect every time the Canucks and Oilers play. At least tonight we're getting it.

Kassian's played solid tonight. Taking runs at guys and has been involved, he needs to bring that energy every night.
- Nucker101

He always plays well against Edm because he isnt intimidated by younger guys. He's a comfort zone performer.

I think these guys are being a shade bit sarcastic...Derek has been very noticeable tonight....I'd say goodbye to Booth if that meant we could keep him

How do you mean?

I've noticed my eyesight is worse than it used to be, but I still think it's fine. Manny has probably adapted to his lost sight. Doesn't make it safe for him, just normal.

I just meant from watching him during the telethon. My eyesight is worse than when I was younger but both eyes have decreased equally more or less. Increased blind spots can't be safe in a professional contact sporting league.

Havnt been watching how's he actually doing?

Why is Horcoff out on the PP?

I think he just needs a vote of confidence from the coaching staff. He's gonna be a stud

Good point. That could become an issue in the playoffs if we're playing a bigger team like Anaheim or LA.

Kassian looked good a couple of shifts with a big forward. He needs a guy like Clowe
- VANTEL

That would have been great. The Bruins seem to really unleash the beast in guys like Horton by having a bully culture. Kassian could use a brute to encourage him. Maybe that's the hope from having him on the 4th line with Pinnizato at times?

Because (frank) sakes I dunno thats why.

Did Schneider stop that with his face?

He blows.

So if we make the right moves/buyouts this summer do we go after a guy like Horton so Zack has someone to learn from?

Pinnizotto isn't exactly a big bruiser and I haven't seen him throwing many big hits since his first game. Clowe would have been perfect, I said it before he scored 2 goals with NYR. The guy was due for some luck and this team's forward group would have been stacked when healthy with him and Roy added.

I miss Ballard

That's the 1st point by a trade deadline acquisition in their #Canucks debut since Sanderson 2004.
- AlexF

That's spooky knowledge.

So far with a couple minutes left. I am Impressed with how we played a team game for almost the entire game. We haven't just patrolled the outside in the offensive zone. Everybody has chipped in on defence. Most notable thing for me this game was in the first two periods the defence joining the rush.
