Vey looked okay on 2nd line when Burrows was out.

Put Horvat up there for a few shifts and blow his mind.

Or do as Esplen suggested and try Matthias up there. Another centre on that line would be great.

If Kassian wasn't hurt, I'd say try him up there.

Really, you have to try a few guys, it isn't always an easy fit playing with the Sedins.

I just don't want to see him put people there that we know from experience don't work

True, but I would argue that first line chemistry is more important than third line

Yes, but that ended when Vrbata went down, They could get some chemistry with others on the team, but it might take more than a couple games.

Who would you like to see there if Vrbata and Kassian are still out?

I am against breaking up the 2nd line, they are rolling with Burrows, Higgins and Bonino. It leaves on line consistent at least.

Jensen - I liked his cycle game with them last year.

Gonchar to the Habs for Moen - maybe we can pick up Tinordi somehow?

None of the Canucks injured folk on the ice.. Looks like the line up vs the Ducks might have to go again..

No Sbisa, Dorsett, Kassian for Canucks game day skate.

It is frustrating to see Jensen, with some offensive upside, called up to play in the bottom 6, while Hansen gets promoted from 4th line to first with hands of stone.

Is that Hansen on a breakaway?

Maybe Hansen will get another breakaway today and go for his patented move.

Benning needs to get rid of Hansen and let some of the kids play, send him somewhere for a depth dman.

Bergevin unhappy with coach using vets over Sekac proceeds to waive Bourque and trade Moen. That's how you get it done.

Perhaps Benning can take note??

I think WD wants a righty with the Twins.

If Hansen had a couple more letters in his name he could literally be named "stone hands" in Danish

The old Moneyball move, perfected by Billy Beane.

If Vrbata is still out please NO Hansen on the Sedin line

Who can they put

Jensen? They tried Vey there for some silly reason, I don't see why Jensen shouldn't get a shot

Jensen was invisible last game

Sucks for Kassian because this would have been his chance to get some time with the Sedins with Vrbata out. Vey is the other righty so take your pick.

Hard not to be when you play 5 mins

He's an offensive player who needs an offensive role, as a bottom six player he just needs to play well defensively and chip in on offence if he can. He played 8:21 last game, was even with one shot and one hit playing with Richards and Matthias, what do you expect?
