know his usefulness is limited to the regular season. Second, his primary contribution was not his hitting, but his fists. Yes, he was a consistent hitter, but there are a plethora of that type of player - what set him apart was that he hit _and_ fought. In essence, a middle-weight that could somewhat play. But here's the crux of it, if his primary function is to fight, then there are much better fighters out there also. Further to that, he was limited to enforcing in the regular season, so the logical choice is to get a better regular season enforcer. Hence, rumours of MG targeting Janssen. It's clear to me Glass's time was done here, and for good reason. There's also the question of how he was, and would be, used. He found himself on the third line far too often last year, and was badly out of his depth. I don't doubt that if he was still here, he'd have spent the last couple of weeks on Hodgson's wing, drying up our third-line scoring. He got a ton of playing time for the Jets in December - 15-16 minutes a night, nearly second-line time. And had a big two points in 14 games to show for it. He's also 0-5 in fights this season, according the hockeyfights.com voting, most recently letting SOB use his head for a speedbag: JovX1umUNuM No, we're just fine without him. dave babych returns 01-03-2012, 04:04 PM It's pretty tough to evaluate the Canucks
