RedFX 48 Report post Posted May 10, 2011 Per MSNBC “I know guys will do whatever it takes for a power play to win a game,” Bieksa said. “But sometimes they’re crossing that line of integrity. I think for the better of the game, for the good of the game we need people to stay on that line and not cross it, and not dive and exaggerate for calls.” I'm surprised Don Cherry isn't up in arms about this. But it's great to hear a player actually come out and say that 1 LidsFan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jesusberg 1,256 Report post Posted May 10, 2011 I have a friend who is a Canucks' fan, and he's just been absolutely driven insane by Bieksa. Says he takes a lot of bad penalties. That being said, he's really chippy and I think a PK tandem of Stuart-Bieksa would be awesome to watch. 1 T.Low reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mjlegend 155 Report post Posted May 10, 2011 Nice sentiment, but I would think the Canucks would do everything in their power to keep him - including dumping Ballard if they need to or saying goodbye to Salo. If the Canucks want to give him $4 million/year, I don't see that it makes sense to outbid that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Crymson Report post Posted May 10, 2011 (edited) Why ever would he do that??? I guess Cherry dislikes the Sharks. The Orca is one of the few sea creatures that preys upon sharks. Edited May 10, 2011 by Crymson 1 LidsFan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HankthaTank 1,100 Report post Posted May 10, 2011 That's an Orca, not a shark. In fact, the Orca is one of the few sea creatures that preys upon sharks! No no, it was an intent to show his undying love for the Nucks.... I see where the confusion lies there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

evilzyme 769 Report post Posted May 10, 2011 No no, it was an intent to show his undying love for the Nucks.... I see where the confusion lies there I thought it was because the Orca was Don Cherry's favorite animal. Heard he had a shrine for them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeftWinger 4,959 Report post Posted May 11, 2011 So what does an Orca have to do with the Canucks? Just because you may see some whales in the ocean?
