What's interesting is that Volpatti was waived despite Kesler's injury. It either means that they need to free up a spot for both Ebbet and Zotto while placing Kesler on the 7 day IR or another move is coming. My money's on Ebbet though

4th line LW, not much of a hockey player but was leading the team in hits and is the one guy on the team that's a decent fighter. I prefer him over Weise, but I like Pinizotto over both.

Edit: Kassian can fight as well, but most Canucks fans want him to get every second of ice he can get right now.

It's not very complicated, Av demoted him to the fourth line in which he plays six minutes a night.

4th line the last few games. Hasn't been bad, but AV prefers Hansen, Higgins, Raymond and Booth over him for the 2nd and 3rd lines right now. 4th line sucked yesterday though.

AV happened. It's his mission in life to purposely not coach you up (after all, you're a big boy, you know what to do), then punish you for not knowing what to do. I have a hard time believing that Kassian would look as bad as he does if some guidelines & expectations for his current role were properly communicated to him.

Same thing happened in Buffalo. Has he been running around hitting and causing havoc on the 4th? Or just floating?

Eager's a tougher guy when the other team doesn't have a heavyweight, it was awesome seeing Kassian knock him the (frank) out after all these years.

Floats at the line while the crease has three opposition players in it.
