When Salo is healthy he is arguabely our #1 dman

But coming back off an ACL injury well see how it goes

werd.

Despite how great Edler is at the moment, no defensemen in our current roster matches his offensive hockey-sense which also comes at no cost defensively.

If our PP is hot now, wait til Salo is back manning that point with Edler.

ugh, saturday's game is at 4pm haha. i'm gonna miss a ton of it while working..

It's actually perfect timing for me

Nucks vs. Leafs then Pacquiao fight afterwards

That might be debatable. Ehrhoff has pretty good offensive hockey sense and he is almost never a reliablity on the back end.

So if he's almost never reliable on the back end, does that not make my case then? :D

jk.

I like Erhoff but I observe some overly individual plays from him from time to time. Like instead of passing it up, he'd rather skate it up which pretty much kills the rush as it leaves all his forwards along the blue line.

True I'll agree with that, but there are also times where he does generate good chances as well.

This is a nice read:)

TORONTO — Nobody here cares that the Vancouver Canucks have come to the Centre of the Universe to play the Toronto Maple Leafs tomorrow (4 p.m., CBC, Team 1040).

The Canucks shouldn't take it personally because if aliens chose Friday to land the mothership in Toronto, then marched down Yonge Street led by Randy Quaid, no one would have noticed. Because the Maple Leafs have recalled Nazem Kadri. NAZEM KADRI! And he's going to play for the Leafs Saturday against that team from Vancouver or Seattle or Portland or whatever. Some team from out west, past Brampton.

“It's hockey central,” Canuck goalie Roberto Luongo observed of the sport's mecca. “That's what they say. It's always fun to play here.”

Especially when the Canucks have won seven of their last eight games and just beat a hot Ottawa Senators team 6-2. And especially when the Maple Leafs have lost seven in a row and just got dusted 8-1 on a two-game tour to Florida.

NAZEM KADRI! made the Canucks' practise today here a Toronto-media-free zone. Everyone was working the NAZEM KADRI! story.

The Canucks worked on keeping their game simple: pucks deep, fast forecheck, shots to the net, crash for rebounds. It was the formula that worked in Ottawa after the first period, when Vancouver decided a strategy of defensive-zone turnovers wasn't generated any offence, except for the Senators.

“Yeah, the backhand saucer pass up the middle wasn't working,” Canuck centre Manny Malhotra said. “We've been learning what works for us, what game plan works for us.”

The Canucks will try not to stray from either the game plan or the winning lineup Saturday.

Keith Ballard appears to be headed for a third straight scratch on defence, and the new fourth line of Mario Bliznak between Tanner Glass and Rick Rypien is intact, meaning winger Peter Schaefer will sit out again.

Rome was brutal last night, directly gave up 2 good scoring chances.

Scratching Ballard again:facepalm:

Lol, I like how the other guys are giving him a hard time.

Ryan Kesler drops pants, draws mockery from Canucks

http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/ept_spor...iiwEEDi5ZKmh0S

As he discussed on Puck Daddy Radio, Ryan Kesler(notes) of the Vancouver Canucks is making inroads in the fashion industry by helping to design a signature line with Firstar sports.

And, apparently, he's also becoming Canada's Next Top Model. (Are Americans even eligible?)

This image appeared with a Vancouver Sun feature story on how marketer and former Umbro Canada VP John Catliff brought Ryan Kesler, Russ Courtnall and Brendan Morrison(notes) to Firstar to help promote its "performance polyester microfibre for underwear" as well as other hockey apparel. Said Catliff:

"Hockey players are the sweatiest creatures on the planet," Catliff said. "No one sweats more than hockey players and no one's equipment smells more than hockey players' and our product is specifically designed to combat the sweat saturation as well as the odour."

Aaaaand gross. Naturally, Kesler's beefcake portrait was not ignored by his Vancouver Canucks teammates, who were confronted with a copy of the Sun and relayed the following reactions to Ian MacIntyre after their 6-2 victory over the Ottawa Senators:

"Oh, wow," [Tanner] Glass finally muttered. "Was this airbrushed?"

"That's embarrassing," Canuck defenceman Kevin Bieksa(notes) chimed in. "I don't think the guys know about this." Oh, but they will. The newspaper's circulation department could open a kiosk today in the corner of the Canucks' dressing room.

Bieksa endured endless ribbing from teammates a couple of years ago when a B.C. magazine named him one of the 10 most beautiful people in the province. And Bieksa didn't do a photo shoot in his gonch, looking like he was waiting to have his pecs oiled for the final posedown competition.

"You have to be pretty confident to do something like that," Bieksa said.

Or at least know that no matter how your underwear ad looks in black and white, it's always going to be less alarming than Zdeno Chara's(notes) "Ogre in Repose" portrait for ESPN The Magazine.

One last thing on the Canucks: Their canceled-practice tribute to veterans on Remembrance Day (read about it here and here) deserves another stick-tap. Great stuff.
