apparently Koltsov signed a 1.7 million dollar deal 93million tax free) with same team in russia that signed perezhogin


I think he forgot to press shift when hitting 9. Its 3 million. He nets himself a 1.7 million net which is equivalent to roughly a 3 million NHL contract.

Bourdon is really not developing quickly when you compare him to Marc Staal and Kopitar.

One will bleed for his teammates while the other one cries

Kopitar = Forward.

Thought that I’d just point that out to you since it doesn’t appear that you have noticed this yet.

Defencemen develop perhaps slower than goalies. Other than Dion "diamond in the rough" Phaneuf who can you name that has developed into to a top four D-man by the age of 20.

I only mentioned Kopitar because he was touted to be great by scouting reports and we passed up on a big centre which was a position we need to fill apparently?

As for Marc Staal, he dominated the OHL as a d man and won awards that other Great d man in the NHL had won in the past. While Bourdon although good wasn't a star player in juniors. So imo he failed to meet his 1st round draft expectation as of now.

More Lars Eller write ups:

Eller is the best Dane available this year. He has great size and is a very good two way player. Towards the end of the year, as the competition became stiffer, Eller added a good physical element to his game and began to muck and grind for the puck. Eller has a good skill set; strong skating, good vision and a great shot. He is very responsible at both ends of the ice and is strong on his skates. Eller’s biggest strength is his mature, smart style of play and his ability to dominate on special teams.

Sounds like a player for the "New" Canucks to me <_<

Also, a nice report here:

Right, well we didnt have a crystal ball

Marc Staal had about the same type of year as Bourdon, in fact, Bourdon had a better year

Nobody could tell Staal would have a better final year as a junior

And i don't know why you bother bringing this up, you're not original at all, this had been brought up time and time again, spawning massive arguments, and every time it's come up you Kopitar fanboys go down like Icarus (que you Wikipedia'n Icarus) so here's a word for the wise: fly low.

We have great goaltending depth. Such an improvement from where we were a few years ago with Burke.

Burke was a great trader, but he’s a terrible drafter and he could never get us the goalie that we needed. Nonis, he’s a great drafter, great trader, and he got us the great goalie. The only mistakes that he has made is on the free agent market.

Hmmm, I'm warming up to this kid. Already @ 198lbs, so he only needs 12-20lbs more, and he's only 18 right? Sounds like he's too skilled to drop below 15 though.

Can't spell Kesler without Selke.

Slapyourself if you think Kesler will score 25+ goals, he just doesn't have the offensive skill.

I also like what I’m reading about Eller.

Would it be wise to trade up 5-10 picks to get him?

Bourdon criticism is ok

Bourdon bashing is not

Unfortunately, NOBODY knows the difference, and EVERYONE follows the latter
