According to Green, He had his best game the other night. I agree leave him down though

He followed that up with his worst game...I wish I was kidding

...and next year, too. Let him develop properly, over time. He has 9 points in the AHL. 9.

Perhaps we should send Burrows, Skille, Willie, Hansen, Miller and Larsen to Utica to help mentor Virtanen?

Calling him up would be retarded. He's done f*ck all on a sh*tty AHL team.


- Marwood

i'm not going to go that far.....

but i agree that he shouldn't be recalled. i think the potential drawbacks outweigh the positives.

if he gets recalled and does badly, hysteria will follow. the management/coaching are dumb for recalling him. he's a bust. trade him. waive him etc.

if it goes really well, i don't want him thinking that he's turned his career/game around going into the off season. rather have him pi$$ed that he wasn't with the big club and train like a demon to prove all the doubters wrong.

a seemingly immature (speculation on my part) kid will think the problem's resolved if the adults are telling him he did his part and all is on track.

rather have him know that he has to prove it in training camp.

The poll question on 1040 today, "Do they trade Burrows or do they re-sign Burrows?"

Anyone get an update on Sven?

If he comes back soon I would hope Hansen and him play with Bo. May add some excitement with speed and skill to watch.

I just saw a tweet from the radio play by play guy....can't think of his name right now that said he was traveling with the team. Can't fly with a concussion so I assume he is at the very least not concussed.

Quick survey of actual Canuck fans.

who wants Burrows resigned next year? regardless if he stays here this year or if we trade him and then resign him.

i'm for don't resign him... time to move on!

According to Tim & Sidney Coyotes may be moving to Seattle or Portland as per a report. Friedman doesn't think Seattle is an option

It all depends. If they have kids ready to play over him on the roster then for sure no. But if they are short players, after the great purge all are expecting, then rather him then an AHL Free agent type like Megna.

Even if there are deals I doubt they will be too exciting if the guys being moved are Burrows, Miller, etc

If they can some how get Edler to waive I think you get a very interesting return.

Two of the following traded and I'll be ecstatic:

Miller
Hansen
Burrows
Edler
Sbisa

I am not asking for much

Typical Laffs fans.

Although to be fair, it's been great seeing guys like Spatso announce they rated Dion highly all this time. It's like the hockey world after Kessel was traded to the Pens.

Thank you walshy

Great point about spatso!!
