even if that's true. Toews is over 60% on the faceoffs playing over 22 minutes a game, and has the 2nd most penalty killing time as a forward on his team. So even though he's not putting up offensive numbers he's doing the little things that the sedins can't and aren't doing.

You know what else? He's actually proven he can perform in the playoffs as a 21 year old so he's already got the confidence of his coaching staff and teammates something the sedins an certainly not Luongo have done yet in there 8 more years in the league.

Looking forward to your response.

Chicagos best players have not been their best players in this series, that's what I'M trying to convey. It's been ALL supporting players and a hot goalie. (Last night)


Toews has actually been really good.. he had a great breakaway and a lot of chances... What makes a great captain also isn't the amount of goals they rack up.
Duncan Keith has been the best player for the Hawks, and I wouldn't call him him a supporting player... he's arguably the best player on the team, remember he won the Norris last year

I'm not sure what the argument here is but as a die-hard Nucks fan I'd like to say that Toews is a better all-around player then each Sedin
Kesler is a better all-around player than the sedins

Not in the playoffs though... Kesler needs to step-up as a big guy and grind more

Kesler has to be one of the best all-around player in the league. Not alot of 40 goal scorers dive around to block a slapshot like he does. Definatly a superstar.

I'd trade those 40 regular season goals for 1 playoff goal....

Funny how noone is on his nuts....

From what I've seen Kesler has been playing well
Sedins are playing meh, and aren't putting up nearly the points they are expected to be putting up

Because scoring isn't everything...
Have you not comprehended a single thing? It the little things that win playoff
games. Points help, but if your not blocking shots, checking, winning face offs you aren't going to succeed.

It's painfully obvious that you have no clue what a stanley cup caliber team looks like and I'm very sorry for that.

Other than the 2 debacles where as a team, the Canucks sucked shit the Sedins have been a force when on the ice spending at least 80% of the time in the attacking zone.

You just arent getting it.
