Lack of talent on the Canucks

“Vancouver doesn’t have any talent… they just work really hard.” What idiot coined this? How do you rate the skill of Luongo? Hank? Daniel? Ohlund? Markus? And on and on.

Truth be told this team has a lot of talent. It’s not the flashy talent they’ve had previously, and it doesn’t have the great speed of past Canuck teams, but this team has a bunch of talent – AND they work hard.

An interesting statistic… Daniel Sedin leads all NHL players with 28 shots in the playoffs and yet only has one goal….

Don’t’ tell me the Sedins and Naslund haven’t shown-up… they’ve played great. But Turco has played better (and so has the Dallas defence and trap).
