They have Pahlsson. Hodgson was expendable. He's poor defensively and slow. He didn't fit their team make up. He wasn't able to be reliable plying wing on the top 2 lines so the only spot was to center the 3rd line, but he wasn't made for that role. Plus he demanded more ice time.
No idea. All I know is that once he left, I instantly liked him more
Yes he wanted out, and there's not much that you would get for him imo. I dunno if you watched his games with Buffalo but he was one of their, if not worst, forwards down the stretch and was responsible for quite a few goals.
I wonder if the weight of Vancouver fandom at this point in time would lend itself to marshaling the strength to tear their hometown apart. I volunteer to hand out free Five Hour Energy and the reserves from my private stash of heretofore banned 4Loco so as to facilitate their destruction. Just cause, you know, I hate insurance companies

I did see him a few times in Buff and I can't argue that.

He seemed good against us though while on Van...
Why did he want out?
Lack of ice time. There are rumors that his parents were pushing him to ask the coach to give him more time. Funniest thing was that when he got traded he ended up playing the same minutes with Buffalo. I guess he should realize he didn't deserve more time.
Are we aloud to make Vancouver jokes here that involve flames, burning, and a city?
No. Trashing fanbases is against the rules. Smack talk the team all you want, but making it about the fans (and by extension, the Canucks posters on this board) isn't kosher.
And for what it's worth, I'd ask that people at least not do it out of respect for me. I may not be a Canucks fan, and I may not live in Vancouver, but I really don't want to hyperbole and snark about how awful my home is.
