Carol Schram: Vancouver Canucks Game Day: Jan 21 at Boston Bruins; Prust Out, Zalewski In Mike Zalewski and Jake Virtanen will be in the lineup for the Vancouver Canucks when they take on the Boston Bruins on Thursday night.

No doubt JB is eager to get Z into a game to see what he really has at the NHL level. If skill set is good, then Cracknell is disposable. If the DZV line works, then look for prust to be gone soon.

Any word on Prust's feelings?

Hard to say...tantrums usually happen closer to game time...

Cracknell has basically been disposable since day 1...injuries kept him in the lineup.

Times are a changin

I thought the tantrums were after the morning skate?

Oh yes sorry..I stand corrected.

am I the only one who wouldn't mind seeing Prust play tonight, could get interesting with the little douche canoe marchant running around.

No, I want him to play. But my opinions have always been controversial. There are his feelings to consider as well as diminishing his trade value by benching him.

prust may also be being sat due to the spearing incident and not wanting this to turn ugly. Particularly with the injuries we currently have, not wanting a high cheap shot game.
Id prefer to have seen him on the ice or even bench however. Perhaps itd keep that puke marchand busy worrying about prust and not trying to take our guys out with his illegal tactics.

No heart, no speed.
He's done as a Canuck.

Dale Weise?

- CanuckDon

His skating and his lack of passion are doing that.

Vrabta for Weise? Change of scenery for 2 legit scorers.

The rest of us, that ship has sailed.

knowing Boston the way we all do, I think they will be cheap shotting anyway and i'd rather Prust be around than Jake....and i'm sure Double D wouldn't mind the help.

Don't worry, sheriff Sbisa is on the job.

What am I missing here? What/who is General Fangler?

Prust to Montreal for a 4th and Jon Scott.

It is like a Capcentral salary cap site.

Cracknell is a great guy in the locker room as well as a bread and butter 4th line player. Seems to get along well with the younger group.

Its not like he plays bad, he plays his role on the fourth line. decent defensively and can bring some momentum when we need it.

He was a good addition, a little bit of insurance. It'd be nice if we had better options, but I haven't been disappointed in Cracknell.
