That effort by Henrik was disgraceful. How can anyone respect that kind of effort from their captain. Disgraceful

Brock with another point


Vanek has to be one of the best snails in the NHL

I respect it deeply.





He's doing what's best for the team.

Do the Sedins know what defense is anymore?

good point

Biega 7 SOG not bad for an AHLer.

You could say Horvat is pretty important

Since he went down with an injury Vancouver has been outscored 37-15

I don't care what anyone says, that was an entertaining game #12goals

25th, behind Colorado

#1C and #1D out for an already bad/mediocre team. This is pretty much going as expected.

Biega Brock and Vanek had a good game , Gaunce not so much


The team was bad tonight but good for a draft pick

More mature and ready despite playing a difficult position means he was and is flat out better lol.

You're putting a ton of stock into Bert's take(who's heart is clearly still in Vancouver). Just because he was a big guy that also played here, doesn't mean what he says is gospel. Ray Ferraro, who has no attachment to Vancouver, said he think JV will top out as Hansen caliber player. A very valuable role guy who is great on the 3rd line and can play in the top 6 if playing with better linemates.


And lol at worry about scoring later...look at most of the legit top 6 players in the NHL right now. Most of them showed more offensive ability in the AHL/NHL/Europe than Jake has, including the bigger/power guys.

You're still making the Bo player to player comparison and that is not why I mentioned him lol. It was that attaching a ceiling within first couple years of play in NHL career is too early. I'll give you Bo started out as better player and showed improvement faster. Probably stay that way cause I don't think JV's hockey IQ will ever catch up.

Ferraro actually lives in Vancouver but why take his word as gospel? That shrimp doesn't know about a power forward's development more then Bertuzzi.

Who are these 21 year old power forwards playing top 6 in the NHL?

For JV have some patience and let it play out.

36 goals against in 7 games is embarassing

even for a bad team.

Vanek's gonna enjoy some blow tonight

Brock has more goals than Danny and Vanek combined


It seems like every shift he can score

Weber has played more as a #6 dman in the NHL than in the AHL/pressbox in recent years. Not comparable to the guys we're discussing.
- Nucker101

That proves my point and where he was on Canucks was where these guys are now.
