[VAN/ANA] M. Lapierre & M. Sharp to Vancouver for J. Perrault & 2012 3rd rounder
Ya, Vigneault is really familiar with Lapierre from the Q; he used him as a shut-down centre against Crosby all the time. Has size and speed; Perrault is a career AHLer and we don't need 3rd round picks.
I can't imagine that locker room with all the yapping. Lapierre used to defend against Crosby in the juniors. I'm not saying that's what his job is, that's malhotra's job, but AV will coach him right.

There is no more yapping on the canucks: both Kesler and Burrows have cleaned up their act this year.
They might be having off seasons, but both Lapierre and Higgins are guys who are likely better than certain Canuck forwards at just getting the puck up the ice and turning it into something.
Not sure why the Ducks moved Lapierre unless they felt they couldn't / wouldn't retain him as an RFA in the summer.

He didn't really seem to fit for starters and recently acquired Ruutu has significantly outplayed him. LaPierre last night only played three minutes for instance.
Reminds me of early Burrows
- first the obvious - french canadian sheat disturber
- versatile, and can play on the PK
- not many goals, but some beauties when he does... suggesting a greater ceiling to be realized.
