Watching Carl twerk over Chiasson getting 1st unit pp time is worth it though

Is that the guy Micky calls "girlie"?

Because they're on the same page when it comes to Chiasson.

I think Mick wants to be like Carl when he grows up.

Or perhaps Roseanne Barr?

Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

is this where Ghomers defensive 'PK structure' of "getting pinned on the boards" takes on new meaning??!?

There's too much focus on Chaser and his limited role I think. You're getting a bargain for the $750,000 we're paying him, I'm not sure what people expect. I think he's been exactly as advertised so far.

I'm more concerned about the skinny guy that gets knocked down all the time. He seems discouraged.

Doesn't matter if he's making $750.000 or 3 mil. If he's not really qualified to be on the team's power play, why is he?

The skinny guy has always got knocked down all the time. He's always contributed greatly to the offense. Don't know if its discouragement

or lack of confidence. Either way, lets hope he figures it out.

Perhaps he lacks confidence because he's feeling, you know, discouraged? Sheesh, Canucks fans sometimes :lol:

Alex Chiasson - 2

… your calling our leading PP scorer ‘not qualified’?

The only reason he was kept on the team is BECAUSE he is 750k AND qualified for PP!! His only skill set is in front of the net.

You're not qualified to say he's not qualified. :D

You don't know what discouraged means.

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/discouraged

discouraged (comparative more discouraged, superlative most discouraged)

1. Having lost confidence or hope.


Yeah, one of those Gomer lol...

I still say Pettersson is playing tentative. He does not want to physically engage. He needs to push through that and I think he will. If he doesn't then aren't we smart only locking him up for three years. Still own his rights and trade his ass.
The only HW the Canucks need
Locked
