DeNiro Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Tied with Mitch Marner now, a guy projected to be a top 10 pick in a deep draft. And only 4 back of Domi, an 11th overall pick in the same draft. Yea I'd say he's a pretty good pick for a 3rd rounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gyllenhaal Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 What a stud! 2013 could turn out to be the best draft in Canucks history. With Horvat, Shinkaruk, and Cassels likely to have long careers in the NHL, and Subban could turn into something great as well. Thanks Gillis, I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Tyson Giuriato (Canucks prospects guy) he plays 5-on-5 with Hunter Smith and Bradley Latour. Smith is a 2nd round pick who was passed in his first year of eligibility. Latour is undrafted. So you know he is the big piece of the line. He does get prime PP time though. What a stud! 2013 could turn out to be the best draft in Canucks history.

Thanks Gillis, I guess Cederholm, as a 5th rounder, has a chance of becoming a reliable depth (5-7) defenseman for us too. Obviously you want late-round gems, but these depth guys are the types of players you try to get with those late picks. If Cederholm becomes a reliable, physical, every day 14-ish minute bottom pairing guy for us, that's a successful pick. Anything more he offers is a bonus.

Also goes to show he wasn't riding Dal Colle's coattails last year either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Looks like Cassels is developing into our version of Marchand... Two minute penalty for kneeing today followed by a 5 minute penalty and a game misconduct for a check to the head. He was tossed halfway through the game before the Generals started scoring, so no points for him. Love that he's getting involved physically. Don't love the dirty play.

Devoted Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 He's got snarl, that's for sure. That mindset will surely help him transition to the pro game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canucks1219 Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 1 - OSH C. Cassels, 6:25 - Kneeing, 2 min (PP) 2 -OSH C. Cassels, 13:51 - Check to the Head, 5 min (PP) 2 - OSH C. Cassels, 13:51 - Game Misc-Check to Head, (48.3) 0 min I agree, it's nice that he plays with such an edge but he'll need to be a little more disciplined than this. Luckily he's a 19 year old junior player and not a 26 year old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High totals in juniors don't set a guy on a certain path in their pro career necessarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had pretty high PIMS in the first half of his NHL career too before settling down.. I had no idea Hammer was a little sh!t disturber LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derp... Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Cole is going to be our Bolland for sure, but hopefully better. They are the same size, similar Junior numbers, and fiesty hard to play against styles. I expect Cole will have a higher peak than Bolland in the NHL just based on his playmaking ability, and some serious speculation. Perfect third line centre to play with Kassian in my opinion.

High totals in juniors don't set a guy on a certain path in their pro career necessarily. There's a difference between being a player that crosses the line and one that battles, gets into scrums, etc. There's more than one way to get PIMs. Cassels gets most of his PIMs from getting into it with other players but he does need work on his discipline. He is coming off of a sort of recent Super Series where he gave a Russian player a pretty bad spear. I don't worry about him though. He's a mean player but is a pretty relaxed and even-keeled guy off the ice. Well, that's the impression I get from interviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't claim to have watched Hamhuis in junior but to get that many penalty minutes, there had to have been some undisciplined plays in there. The point I was making though is that racking up PIMs in junior doesn't necessarily turn into a problem as a pro. I personally prefer forwards who have to learn to curve their aggression rather than a guy who has to manufacture it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
