Re: Kassian to vancouveR

hodgson has like 16 goals 32 pts,
fits in under Vanek, Poms, Roy, and way above everyone else.

Re: Kassian to vancouveR

Here's the gist on Hodgson from a Vancouver fan:
Drafted 10th. The report coming out of Junior was the same skill set as Stamkos but without the lightning speed. Outscored John Tavares in the World Juniors the year before Tavares went first overall. Good 2 way player but wasn't going anywhere in Van. Wasn't going to beat out Henrik or Kesler. Wasn't really what you want in a 3rd line center although he does score more than the average. Real good prospect and don't like to see him go. Anyone care to give me the breakdown on Kassian?

Sounds like he will make it possible to get rid of Derek Roy in the offseason. We finally got a new center.

However, our team just got even softer by losing both Goose and Kassian.

Kassian is a beast physically. He's a very good prospect, and will bring some good grit. For a young player, he uses his size well. He's hard to take off the puck and is good along the boards. He's not a complete goon either, he has skill (although not as skilled as Hodgson). The biggest problem he has is his mental makeup, at every level he's played at he's become complacent with where he's at. When he got sent back down to Rochester after being called up earlier in the year, he was lazy down there. I think once he's a regular on the big club he'll deal with the complacency issues again, but thats on your coaching staff.

If he maxes out his potential, I think he's a slightly less tough Lucic but with slightly more skill.

Gragnani is terrible. You should hope he never sees the ice.
