canuckcam1963 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Canucks farm team win game 6 of semi finals 2-0 and now move onto AHL finals... Jacob Markstrom coming up big again in the win saving all 21 shots... We have some good prospect ready to move up to the big club.. Feel Markstrom is ready for backup duty next year maybe playing 20-25 games, Sven Baertschi is ready for top 6 and he has great speed and great scoring touch... Brendan Gaunce has good size and has had a great playoff, Grenier has size 6'4" and has also had a great regular season and playoff...Corrado, Glendening, and big 6'4' tough Pedan should all be getting close for NHL duty... I Think Virtanen,Shinkaruk, Cassels, McCann should be ready for 2016 -2017... Excited for the young farm team to win the cup.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHodgson9 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Markstrom is a gamer, I'm thrilled we have him in our system. The rest of Utica is deep and rich with talent too, go baby nucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But since this didn't get locked (yet) is there any chance we could some proper GDT's going for the finals instead of just posting in the Comets thread?

His entire philosophy is built around the importance of creating a winning culture to build to greater success. It doesn't guarantee success, but so much is made of experience in the playoffs. Now guys like Virtanen, Shink, Gaunce, Markstrom, Corrado, etc. will have that playoff mentality. 2012-13 Champs: Grand Rapid Griffins: Detroit's development of talent in the AHL before stepping into the NHL is legendary 2011-12 Champs: Norfolk Admirals. Many of these players are now in the SCF with TB 2010-11 Champs: Binghamton Sens: Lehner, Greening, Wiercoch, Borowiecki, Butler, Condra, Cowen.....half of the Sens' roster player on this team.

That Calder Cup team of Sens prospects was truly impressive. IMHO their young talent is one of the best in the NHL. Canucks as a org should be very proud of the performance of the d-men who were brought up during their injury stretch in the spring. Their performance had a lot to do with the similarity of play between Utica and Canucks. It has to really benefit young players to have similar systems.

MoneypuckOverlord Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 The Monarchs were the best team in the AHL, that said, their GF and GA is very similar to Grand Rapid. In fact Grand Rapid had 10 more goals, but the Monarchs have like 10 less goals allowed. If we can shut down the Rapids, we can easily do the same to the Baby Queens.
