VANCOUVER — Former Vancouver Canucks centre Cody Hodgson demonstrated
Friday he can stickhandle in front of a microphone Friday as well as he does on
the ice.
Given one, two and three opportunities to admit he asked for a move out
of Vancouver, the new Buffalo Sabre simply avoided answering in a session with
reporters at the Pan Pacific Hotel.
Hodgson and Alex Sulzer were sent to the Sabres at Monday's NHL trading
deadline for Zack Kassian and Marc-Andre Gragnani. http://www.vancouversun.com/sports/Former+Canuck+Cody+Hodgson+dekes+around+trade+questions+Like+said/6243489/story.html#ixzz1o4fYtCPV
Shacks’ Take: Those are some pretty nifty moves Cody’s using there. That last one looked like a Savardian spinorama. It’s hard not to think Cody
wanted out considering AV’s treatment, his limited ice-time and even more
limited opportunity. Vancouver did the
right thing by swapping him now and not waiting for the draft in June. The trade made them a much tougher team to
play against and Vigneault gets his ideal roster. I discuss the trade breakdown in detail in
tomorrow’s Canucks article.
