Vesey claimed off waivers by Vancouver

[Highlander]

His Mandarin will be put to better use in Vancouver.

One day, we'll look back on the Jimmy Vesey era and say "oh yeah, that guy was a Leaf for a while."

Strange how we coveted him when he won the Hobey Baker award.

 

[Bullfrog]

Why would that be strange to covet a highly-touted player?

not strange to covet a HB award winner but strange the road he has travelled down, to actually have come to us and then moving on.

In they come, out they go.  He had more than enough opportunity to show that somebody else should be waived.

Yup. He did. Oh well, next....

ahh. I didn't read it that way. Ya, too bad he didn't pan out better.

No more Vesey to kick around, who is our next scapegoat? I got it Holl

Maybe, but there's always Nylander  Or Andersen.

Vesey...I mean, he's not a difference maker. Someone like Barabanov could do the same job. Besides, with Simmonds coming back, Galchenyuk getting a shot, maybe Robertson at some point (not to mention Anderson or the guy who got a 4 minute cameo the other day, Agostino?), someone had to be exposed. Maybe he'll have more success in Vancouver.

Nylander has been our best forward the last 2 weeks so he is out. Anderson is a goalie so that is difficult, to easy to blame.  Has to be Holl, he has stunk out the joint lately.

Vesey is playing for the Canucks tonight

Correction. Vesey took the warmup but isn't playing

Couldn't even crack Vancouver's line-up, garbage.

I don't know what Benning is even doing picking off Vesey.

Must be problems between him and the coach if Green won't play his prize deadline acquisition.
