From Canucks Nation at The Province: Desperate times call for desperate measures. In the Canucks case, that looks like it means the the end of the Steve Bernier-on-the-first line experiment. It was flawed from the start as Bernier’s style never meshed with the Sedin twins. Now, the twins get something they desperately need — speed. Admittedly it’s not been working very well lately, but was it really...

The San Jose Sharks lost Thursday, 3-2 in Vancouver at the hands of former Shark Steve Bernier and his new linemates the Sedin twins. While the loss stings and the Sharks continue to struggle on the power-play during the pre-season, there were a few bright spots. Mainly the rookies that were in the line-up trying to win one of the final roster spots available. Lukas Kaspar, the Sharks first round selection...

While $2.5 million should be no laughing matter, I just couldn’t help being amused by the series of events involving Steve Bernier yesterday. Nor could Adam Proteau at The Hockey News apparently, who would’ve enjoyed watching it go even further: The only way this soap opera could be more entertaining would be if the Lightning’s braintrust discovered a hidden clause in the NHL’s collective bargaining...

from Jeff Gordon of the Stl Louis Post-Dispatch, The Blues have been especially careful, adding depth defenseman Mike Weaver to offset the loss of Matt Walker. The team also extended an offer sheet to Canucks restricted free agent Steve Bernier, a pointed payback for Vancouver’s bid on David Backes. But there are always several GMs out to make a splash. Some are new to their job. Others are fighting...

A lot of fans and pundits last week speculated that the trading away of Steve Bernier was because of an impending offer sheet from the Canucks. People thought that Vancouver GM Mike Gillis was trying to avoid looking Lowe-esque by alerting Darcy to the situation before the sheet was offered (I guess you’d call it [...]

The St. Louis Blues just tendered an offer sheet to new Canuck Steve Bernier. Im sure this has everything to do with what kind of hockey player Bernier is and nothing to do with the Gillis' offer sheet to Backes earlier this summer. Says Davidson: “Steve is a good young player who would play a big part in our youth movement,” said Davidson. “Our coaches and scouting staff are extremely positive about...
