[Trade] Canucks acquire Nikita Zadorov from the Flames

Zadorov is probably a bit overrated in terms of on-ice ability, but I am giddy at the thought of adding this absolute unit to our D corps.

Brings an element of meanness and genuine toughness that we've severely lacked. 

 

I believe he's friends with Kuzy and Mickey too!

Not long ago people were complaining about our GM......

I remember the press conference where they were introducing Tocchet after the Bruce debacle, Rutherford seemed to be in the cross hairs of a lot of fans.  They could have handled that whole situation better but....if they ever put Jimmy and Allvin on the big screen during a game fans should give them a standing O.

Not true, different type players that fulfill different roles. Tanev is a first pass forechek lifesaver. Zads is the guy you need when you play Byfield, Kopitar, Benn, etc. We have Tanev types in Hughes, Hronek. We had no Zads. 

tanev is 6'3" 200 lbs of brains, guts, balls, and heart. his intangibles are beyond reproach. he brings so much more to a team than a "first pass forecheck saver". just ask every teammate, coach and manager he's ever had.
