MoneypuckOverlord Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 calling it right now. Corrado suits up for the Canucks before the conclusion of the 2013 season/playoffs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
higgyfan Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 He tries to do everything himself... every time he got the puck in his zone you could tell he was set on going end to end. The one goal kitchener did score last night was because he was forced to pass on one of his rushes and his teammates made it happen. I see him being a mike green sort of player - great for offense but he'll need a steady stay at home partner to cover him. I can picture it now... Murphy starts behind the Carolina net... Skates it up... Stolen by Hansen... Scores! Great for a young player to have confidence, but overconfidence will burn them. He'll come back down to earth when he starts playing against men.

elvis15 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Great for a young player to have confidence, but overconfidence will burn them. He'll come back down to earth when he starts playing against men. Absolutely. My first thought watching all that skating around was he should be glad Scott Stevens is retired. Against men he's going to get hammered a few times and that'll be it. He can still make rushes, but doing it all himself won't work at the higher levels as he's just not good enough for that. Corrado on the other hand already plays a game that fits higher levels. He plays responsibly and jumps into the play where he can. He'll still need to figure that out against bigger and stronger players, but a bit of time in the AHL and he'll pick it up I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I wasn't so sure we'd see McEneny come over, but did expect Corrado to do so, and he has: News1130 Sports @News1130Sports #Canucks draft pick and defenseman Frank Corrado has joined the Wolves after his Kitchener Rangers were eliminated from OHL Playoffs.

elvis15 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Chicago Wolves @Chicago_Wolves #chicagowolves: Defenseman Frank Corrado Joins Wolves - The Vancouver Canucks have assigned defenseman Frank Corra... http://ow.ly/2wc69L CORRADO completed his fourth Ontario Hockey League season on April 12 when the Kitchener Rangers were eliminated 4-games-to-1 by the London Knights in the second round of the OHL’s Western Conference Championship. He recorded 2 points (G, A) in 10 postseason contests with the Rangers. The 20-year-old defenseman set career-highs with 7 goals, 38 assists, and 45 points in 69 regular-season games split between Kitchener and the Sudbury Wolves. His 38 helpers shares sixth among OHL blueliners, while his 45 points tied for 11th. Overall, the Toronto native amassed 95 assists, 110 points, and 310 penalty minutes in 259 career OHL games with Sudbury and Kitchener spanning four seasons (2009-13). CORRADO posted an assist in four regular-season tilts with the Wolves last season after he was signed to an Amateur Tryout Contract (ATO) on April 2, 2012. He also skated in two Calder Cup playoff games with Chicago. The Wolves travel to Wisconsin for the final time this year when they battle the Milwaukee Admirals in an Amtrak Rivalry contests at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, April 16.

zombieksa Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Hopefully he gets time in AHL or ill be pissed With the Wolves place in the standings, they can't afford NOT to use him. Hopefully Arniel looks at how he played in the AHL briefly last year.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonecoldstevebernier Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Jason Shaver @theshaves 2h Frankie Corrado could make his Wolves season debut tonight. His season began in early September w/ a tournament in Russia. #youthfulEnergy - from the Wolves play-by-play man. Nothing official, but sounds like he could very well play. Tonight's game is huge for the Wolves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronic.Canuck Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Corrado had 1 assist for the wolves in a 3-2 loss last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 TEAM Radio @TEAM1040 Gilman: If Frank Corrado "acquits himself well (with Chicago Wolves) there's no reason he couldn't be brought up to Vancouver" It wasn't specifically suggestive that he would be brought up, but he mentioned it along the lines of if Tanev could play for us in the playoffs his rookie year then it's not out of the realm of possibility Corrado gets the call either. He did mention Joslin got the got the call as Worcester was already out of the AHL playoff race (as Joslin is on loan to them) and he would have been called up with other depth when available as well. The Wolves still have a small chance at the playoffs I believe, so they wanted to leave their roster undisturbed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuck_trevor16 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Frank Corrado called up.........hope he get to play could be Tanev 2.0 Scott Deady @scott_deady Quote: dinner w/ @frankcorrado22 and his pops the night he finds out he's being called up 2 the @VanCanucks. couldn't ask for a better night. #nhl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 who's this Scott Deady? Is he credible? Would be sweet to see Frank for a couple of games just to get some experience; maybe bring Jensen up as well for the Oilers game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Deady is just a friend, but it's confirmed that Corrado is being called up. Not surprising considering the high praise by Gillis and Gillman's interviews. Clearly Cam Barker isn't cutting it.

Not surprising considering the high praise by Gillis and Gillman's interviews. Clearly Cam Barker isn't cutting it. He's also a right handed shot, which we could most definitely use right now.

elvis15 Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Jut a little clarification: Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC Canucks to call Frankie Corrado again in morning...final decision to be made then. Very possible he gets call-up. They told him to be ready. I don't see why not, and maybe a few others will travel with him too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dasein Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Talk about being thrown into the fire! If he gets called up, his 1st NHL game would be as a Vancouver Canuck against the Chicago Blackhawks One of the best rivalries in hockey today.
