My hope is that he adds that scoring touch the Canucks have needed since the end of the Naslund/Bertuzzi/Morrison line.
They have everything the team needs now
Good defense - if they all stay healthy
A serious number one goalie
A team that preforms better than the individuals are expected to
A management that is not pissing off anyone
A coach that seems to know what he is doing.
The potential for a great season except for San Jose and even if you get by them, what about Boston?

The acquisition of a veteran star in his late thirties should be just what it takes to get the Canucks to the next level.

We need two good seasons from him with a point a game. I would love to see 18 goals and 24 assists from the rest of this season and them 30 and 50 next year.
I am hoping he is hungry for the Stanley Cup - he has a World Championship and Olympic Gold, he is missing the holy grail of hockey, his name on the Cup.
I do not think they can do it in 08/09, but I think they are the team to do it in 09/10. I see them falling to San Jose in the second or third round of the playoffs.

Didn't we go through this already? Oh, sorry, that was Mark Messier.
"Beaver, ahoy!""The bridge is like a magnet, attracting both pedestrians and over 30,000 vehicles daily who enjoy the views of Victoria's harbour. The skyline may change, but "Big Blue" as some call it, will always be there."

The difference is that Messier had already won the cup several times and he was also clearly no longer very motivated to play hockey.
He also came into Vancouver as a Prima Donna, took away the C from Linden and forced them to unretire Wayne Maki's #11. Talk about coming into town and wrecking the team moral. It also did not help that Messier was supportive of the corrosive Mike Kennan
