RunningWild Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 The words "thank god" come to mind! Wahooooo!! The Wolves have not been a good fit since day 1 IMO. They prefer to use veterans over the Canucks rookies, and it's not good for development. Maybe now Price, Mallet and other Canucks prospects will get good TOI next season. Very excited.

Jagr68 Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Do the Aquillini's now Own the Peoria team? Does this mean we have the ability to move it where we want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonecoldstevebernier Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Yeeeessss. This is amazing news for our prospects. Hopefully there'll be a minimum amount of players on AHL-only contracts next season, and no more relegating players to the ECHL where they don't belong. (and moving them to Abbotsford would be even better) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockNroLLa. Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Great news for the long term future of our team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 Great news for our prospects. With all the money the owners having been dumping into scouting and player development, this was a must. Now the Canucks can have complete control over how their prospects get developed. This team should do great in Abby if they move there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
