Sorry it was Hockeyball that made that claim, not yourself.

Sedins are good puck players but they are not even close to being as physical as Clowe is and that is both in terms of overall physicality and in terms of how physical Clowe is on the boards in the cycle. You've proven my point. Sedins have some board play skills but even if you give the Canucks that, every line that you expect offense from needs those skills and that simply would mean you have one line with those skills...which will not be enough. The Canucks as they are currently comprised up front is ripe for an upset.
