For God sakes if Higgins and Burrows are still on this roster next year ,you will have a lot more to complain about than whether we sign Fehr for 2 mil.

If they are as bad as you say who the (frank) will want them ?

Dillon cross check on Dorsett while he's about to fight Goodrow, if Burrows did people would want him out of the league.

Hansen is a decent fighter. He use to fight more until he broke his hand in a fight.

Of course as soon as Higgins off of the 2nd PP unit they have a decent scoring chance.

Hansen is definitely a nice combo of speed/grit/hockey sense. Not the biggest guy, but not soft.

I think the point that I am trying to make is that if the guy is good enough to play with two of the best players in the world he should be ble to crack our lineup.

I am not a huge Fehr fan, don't get me wrong but with this UFA roster he may be one of the few bargains to go after. That's all.

He is no where near Simmonds or Nino.

If he is such a great steal/bargain, plenty of teams will look at him and over-payment is guaranteed. Just because he hasn't had a huge profile, managers know what he is nonetheless, and that is an inconsistent utility player who can pot 15+ goals for you playing with some good linemates. He is nearing thirty and has never shown any sort of consistency, even though he's had plenty of opportunity to be a staple on that line (including power play time). He just hasn't come through. He'll score 5 goals in 10 games and then not score for the next 10 games.

Basically, teams will typically over-value him and pay much more than the market would usually dictate for such a type of player. And I don't want that to be us

First of all we will sign Matthias so no need for Fehr. We will pay SM 3 + mil.

Our problem is our older players not the younger bigger players

I confess I'm not quite sure how I feel about that either. Once again we are looking at a player that has really never panned out, but who is having a very good 'career' type season. I suppose $3 million wouldn't break the bank, but I don't want the Canucks to fork out big coin only to have the player revert to his usual style of play statistically and performance wise. You are gambling that this year's new and better 'Mathias' (who has now been in the league 8 years, however) will suddenly start to perform consistently, playing like he has this year, in terms of going forward. At this stage in his carreer, and based on his unremarkable historical data, it's not like a player can suddenly reinvent themselves to be the next 'Crosby' etc

Canucks look sloppy. I like the intensity, but the don't look very crisp with their passing.

Weber is just awful. I wish Willie would get him off the PP.

The other option is let him walk bring in Gaunce and our three top scorers will be
Vrbata at 24
Hansen 15

Can I ask why u are begging for Mathias and want burrows gone? Regardless of age its not close.

Burrows is faster
Burrows goes to the net more
.burrows is more versitile
Burrows is better defensively
Burrows has better instincts
Etc
