Out bottom 6 winger where garbage, and Was that sutter with the brutal turnover to lead to mcdavid goal OMG yeah!!! So tough....23 years old today....on an NHL team after working his whole life to get there. Making that team in what will be his FIRST full year of NHL hockey. He must be pretty damn devastated!! Edit: poor Gaud....only making $918,000 a year. To practice his hockey skills with the Vancouver Canucks until he develops a bit more and plays many years as a pro hockey player. DEVASTATING!!

So to your point I didn’t like the way our bottom 6 played they aren’t meant to just defend. Haha yeah dump and change same with Jake must be a game system they follow, abandon ship style Gaudette creates chances Edited October 4, 2019 by Hairy Kneel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reyezone Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 I'm hopin this 3rd line (18-88-17) can complete a top nine of offense that can push play and cause opposing coaches to have to react to. We can cycle defensive players through the 4th line and keep the pace high. Go Gaudette! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tre Mac Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 He was buzzing, hopefully he can bury some of those chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Kneel Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 (edited) That play off the boards though. I think his confidence will only grow and we'll see glimpses of that Hobey style. Edited October 11, 2019 by Hairy Kneel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kootenay Gold Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 I am hoping that Adam slots back into the lineup soon. Watching from the sidelines is not great for his continued development. Tough to do though when the product on the ice is winning games. Maybe he slots in for the game in NJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it'll be tough for Gaud, but I agree that going to Utica and playing +++ of games is better for him. He isn't ready to step into the 3C role, so this could be a situation where he could improve his game enough to put pressure on Sutts at some point. Seeing as he's waiver exempt, it's a good time for him to develop in an environment where he'll be a big fish. Next year he plays on the big team or gets traded, as he will not pass through waivers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHL rocks Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 (edited) Gaudette is 23 now. Not all that young. He needs to start putting up some offense soon if he wants to be the 3C on this team. 5g 8a 13 pts not good enough in 64 games. Maybe best if they send him down to Utica for couple of weeks to get him some ice time. Wouldn't surprise me at tdl if this team is playoff bound JB might trade him as part of package for upgrade on top 6 wing. Need one more top 6 winger to play with Horvat line. Preferably a play making type who can pass the puck.. Edit typo Edited October 19, 2019 by WHL rocks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mll Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) Gaudette will be waiver eligible once he plays 80 NHL games. He is at 64. Green doesn't seem to quite trust him. With everyone healthy it might be best to send him down to Utica and not use up those 15 games quite yet. Edited October 23, 2019 by mll 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we send him down (which we should IMO, so he can PLAY), we still arguably should be trading away a forward or two with Roussel coming back. We have too many middle 6 bodies.

The Canucks are winning, which is the ultimate goal and is, obviously, paramount to developing Adam and making sure he's getting his fair ice time. Right now, going to Utica is probably the best thing for him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tre Mac Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I don't see why there cannot be a rotation, that may prevent injuries down the road. What is so wrong with taking Leivo, Motte, Ferland out for a game here and there for Gaudette? Especially the 3rd in NY and the first two periods last night the Canucks look gassed, Gaudette has fresh legs. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's the guys who might come out, have to play their guts out every shift, or (they know) Gaud will take their place, and they might be the one sitting for extended periods of time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
