I'm not denying their skills. I'm pissed at how a r-tard makes a r-tard comment about 3 skilled players that face the exact same tough defensemen that the Sedin's do and say that they are going to be punished. Hall/Ebs/Nuge have played long enough and they are still here playing hard. I hate r-tard comments.

I agree with this, and as far as Taylor Hall goes, he is light years ahead of both Sedins put together in terms of toughness. Hall is my favourite player since Messier. Nuge is very much the same as Gretzky was in terms of avoidance, but Eberle frustrates me. I see him as kind of a softie actually. None of the players menioned can compare to the softness of Alex Semin though, he is be far the softest powder-puff player I have ever seen....and he`s BIG.

Kesler is like Backes/Lucic?



Maybe if Backes only tried to fight guys 190lbs and under

Point is, that he battles, and wins those battles, creates space, can back it up. And scores.

I get that no matter what I say, there will be something that you will pick apart, that's ok.

Kesler is a great player. it`s his `me first`attitude that in my opinion keeps the Canucks from making it to the next level. Switch him for Backes and you might have a Cup or two. (btw...never compare Kesler to Backes again...lol)

If St.Louis had a cup, I'd agree. Maybe this year.

I don't get this. He's a decent player, but not a star. I think in 2 years he's another Gagner...someone you finally realize is a solid player and nothing more.

yeah, no

Gazdic tried challenging him twice but Kassian showed his true colors. He has no balls.

Why should Kassian have to fight because he chirped Gags. And why should be Kassian be so undisciplined as to get himself taken off the ice against a scrub like Gazdic? Oilers should be more concerned about their god awful season and trying to win games.

I'd try and frame it like this too if I was a canuck fan
