Debate for this morning.

Does Tyler Motte deserve a chance to play in the top 6 with Horvat instead of Eriksson?

Motte is more physical. He has a higher PPG playing with players that have no idea how to put the puck in the net. They currently have equal TOI and have the exact same shooting percentage at 14.3%

Motte can take face-offs if need be. Is faster than Eriksson.

Is he just as responsible defensively?

That's the key and I would say no as of right now. Ericsson may be many things but he can cover Horvat's mistakes out there too. Not sure Motte is ready for that yet.

Great to see Kassian feed it to him. Loved Kassians post game comments on That tool tKachuk as well.

I liked Tkachuks comments. " We'll take the win and now we are in first place"

Loui has 4 goals in his last 12 games and Canucks have won 8 of 10 . I would wait at least for things to fall apart .

Yes but he also tried to clip him dirty s few times too. Tkachuk got what he deserved. If you are gonna run around like a jackass like Tkachuk is...deal with the consequences just like Kassian said in the post game interview.

The added speed and forecheck and physicality could change how much the amount that they spend defending?

Or get him caught out of position more oft than not. It's a tough call but I say leave Loui there for now.

Lind is the same type of player. They are annoying as fuk and play on the edge and last night Kassian who is also a cheap shot artist cost his team a game or maybe more.

That won't stop Tkachuk next time they play . He will be right back at it annoying Kassian into taking another dumb penalty. Kassian has the IQ of a pack of cigarettes.

I'm so glad we passed on that goof. Many on here want that Kesler/Burrows bite back on the club but they also whine about how embarrassing they are when they were doing it. No thanks don't need that crap here anymore. We didn't win a championship with Kesler/Burrows here just like the Flames won't win one with Tkachuk. is what it is.

I like CGY to battle VGK for the lead in the division and I said so at the years start. But where they go after that is up to them. They need some serious toughness and ingredients to go deep. Lucic will help them in the PO's IMO...but it won't be enough.
