Samuelsson Out Vs Wings / Canucks Re-call Oreskovich
by Sean Zandberg on Mar 22, 2011 1:32 PM PDT
Email
PrintThe Canucks have re-called Victor Oreskovich from Manitoba today on an emergency basis. Mikael Samuelsson will miss the game against the Red Wings because of a lower body injury. He didn't last long at practice today and needs a couple days off. Tanner Glass (ribs) did not practice at all. So that left the Canucks potentially down to 11 forwards. Hence the Oreo call-up.
AND HELL YES it's great news that Kevin Bieksa will make his return against Detroit. Never thought I'd say that. People here and everywhere are already voting Aaron Rome off the Island. Dinks.

I might’ve been half asleep since the first 50 minutes were extremely boring but from what I remember in the last game, it seemed that Oreskovich had a pretty bad game. Hopefully he plays a little better tonight.
good thing
guys are getting some rests for the playoffs.
hopefully his injury is just a phantom one!
Sammy is day to day. He will most likely be back Friday

The injury
Do we know if it’s a nagging, old injury or one that he suffered today at practice?

it’s from the past I believe and Murph said he needs a couple days off

Every time he enters Joe Louis Arena, they try to assimilate him into one of the Red Wing collective. He has tried resisting, but as they have warned him, it is futile. The last resort is to skip this game so that he is spared – and remains a Canuck.

Rome's been decent, imo
But I don’t know who I’d rather sit were I the coach, Rome or Tanev.
Whichever sits, Bieksa being back = good news!

That being said, he should be the one who sits

I don't
There will always be players to complain about. In this instance, they’re not even actually playing badly, we (who am I kidding, its just me) still complain about them nonetheless. I’d rather have no reason to complain but complain anyways instead of real reasons to complain and a LOT of complaining. Does that make sense?

Fuck Hordi
In regards to Raymond and Tambo, sure their slumps and habits (skate fast to the outside! get squeezed out along the boards! hurr durr Im Mason Raymond!) are irritating, but the Canucks are number 1 in the league and in the Western Conference by a lot. The Canucks are still arguably the best team in the league even without their 3rd line center. Its not like we need those guys to pick up the slack along the stretch drive so we can make the 8th seed in the Eastern Conference.

we don't need them to
but riding the hot hand into playoffs tends to help
Going into the playoffs
I’d like to have all cylinders firing but you just have to trust that everyone will do their best in the playoffs. Not to mention thats why we have superstars on our team. Our best players have to be our best players in the playoffs. Sedins, Keslord, Juice, Hammer, Edler, Luie, all have to step up and elevate their play in the post season. If we’re relying on Mason Raymond and Tambo to score regularly then either we’re in serious depth trouble or we’re the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Don’t you dare leave out Ehrhoff. CC will be crushed.
Mayray has been my guy this year too. Think things went almost too well for him last year. Someone mentioned awhile back how career years are just that, very few mid tier players can be that consistent year in and year out.

Has been decent all year, but Tanev has shown he can handle the big league. 27 games played, ZERO PIM.

next year's roster
if we win it, they can nuke the team and i would complain just a little bit.
if we don’t win it this year… i wouldn’t mind something like:
sedin-sedin-burr
?-kes-sammuelsson
?-manny-hansen
glass-lappy-?
on D:
edler-?
hammer-bieksa
ballard-tanev
i.e. i think i’d let erhoff go, as good as he is on the PP. hoping for a slightly upgrade on raymond. torres has been good but he might get expensive if he does well in the playoffs, and if he doesn’t he’s a goner. it’ll be nice to trade away ballard, but he’s probably only about 700k too expensive the truth is. higgins will probably be too expensive?
of course, if we don’t win it this year some GMs would swing for the fences. GMMG doesn’t seem like that kind of guy, but you never know.

Not a typo
Pretty amazing. At this point, if he doesn’t win the Calder I think it’s a travesty. Look at who his linemates have been – Frans Nielson. Couture has played with Marleau and Thornton; Skinner has played with Staal, and Grabs doesn’t get any PP time, just PK

And the
Grabner/ Raymond conundrum just keeps rolling along.

That's still a false comparison though
It was never Grabner or Raymond. And who would have thought Raymond would be having this bad of a year this year?

Pardon me
but wasn’t the reasoning behind dealing Grabner because he was redundant? ie, a small, offensive winger. Obviously, hindsight is 20/20, but one does pause to think, doesn’t one?

Sure
But I would be willing to bet that in the negotiations for Ballard it wasn’t “choose MayRay or Grabner to give us”. It was probably Grabner or bust, and I’d still rather have the extra defense at this point

I agree
Firstly, we got a very good defenceman in Ballard, who I think is one of our more underrated players this season. His play has been reliable and he’s been doing a great job mentoring Tanev (he credits hips). His limited ice time is not because he’s been playing shit and I think his limited offensive numbers is indicative of the fact he’s out there in situations with either Tanev or in defensive situations.
So then going on the trade was good for the Canucks, then, who’s to say that if we had traded Raymond instead of Grabner, that Raymond wouldn’t have flourished in NYI (i.e. same path) and the role he was put in and Grabner would have floundered a bit with a slightly more defensively minded system. What level of competition is Grabner taking and is it comparable to the second line? Has he been injured?
It’s wayyyyyy too hard to compare the two. Plus its just silly to evaluate a player based on a single season. Yes, Grabs is having a good year. But that doesn’t mean that he is the better long term asset.

I know
I know. That’s why I said hindsight is 50/50. We’ll see how everything pans out next season, I guess.

Grabner's shooting percentage
is both insanely awesome and unsustainable.
