Perhaps Green is blinded by his "rage tears" however. Least I have the nuts to make that statement, 4 surgeries? Hopefully a regular now? I hope he plays amazing. Might want to give him a dozen games before gloating however. I'd go snipe some year old comments if I cared as much as you. Guess your still working through your rage tears that I cheered for Russia because his captain is our best prospect outside the NHL... Even before team Canada dropped an egg in the gold medal. Notice I didn't see you the entire 3rd period after spouting off to me about getting quiet in the Russia game. Tough when the skates on the other foot, isn't it comrade?

Why can't we just enjoy what we are seeing for now? Whether he makes the team out of the gate or not doesn't really matter if he's at least showing flashes of what he could become. Instead, we have a conversations with a bunch of adults pretending they're in kindergarten class. Do you want to share your boogers too? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have been high on this kid a long time before Canucks drafted him and still am very high on him. Injuries are part of professional sport. Go and do as you please with anything including my old posts. I have no idea what you are whining about with regard to Russia game. My timezone doesn't always mesh with where you likely are so ever think I simply logged off? I still have not a clue what thread or item you mention but if we crossed paths on another thread and you were an equally obtuse wambulence type, I probably engaged.

KirkSave Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 So if Juolevi makes the top 6, who do ya'll think Green will pair him with? My hope is Hamonic and have the D as follows: Hughes Scmidt Edler Myers Juolevi Hamonic I think each of those pairs in theory would compliment the other's game, plus Hughes and Scmidt would be fun to watch.

My thinking is Hamonic slots in with Huggy and Juolevi with Myers. Regardless I love the depth on D this year much more promise especially come playoff time, but first let’s get game 1 of regular season in the books. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A cursory look suggests no. Pettersson hit 731 pages about a month and a half into his NHL career though. Virtanen hit it after one season.

I agree will be good to have Hamonic play with Hughes as he is a solid veteran and plays more like Tanev..Hamonic plays with an edge 6'2, 210 lbs will help protect Hughes and will be that reliable stay at home D man and PK... I like Hamonic more then Tanev..So stoked we have Hamonic in Vancouver and a much better salary then Tanev... Hamonic was second with ice time last year in Calgary think he avg over 21 mins a game.... Myers and Hamonic will rotate with Hughes and Juolevi...Great for Juolevi to have 2 very good D partners to play beside..

Technically we haven't signed Hamonic yet so we don't know what the cap hit will be... but it's pretty obvious both the term and cap hit will be significantly lower than what Tanev got. I agree with everything you're saying here. This is the best mix of D-men we've had in a decade and to have so many solid pairing options is gonna be huge for this team taking the next step. Just adding Hughes last year made an enormous difference, and now we'll have a player with that breakout ability on the ice for most of the game between him, Schmidt & Juolevi, whether it's via skating or excellent passing.

Popular Post MrCanuck94 Posted January 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 14, 2021 Solid game by Olli, one rookie mistake. This d-core is miles better already with a rookie and a guy who hasn't played in 11 months. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Rob_Zepp Posted January 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 14, 2021 For a "rookie" playing first regular season game, he was actually outstanding. So many cool, calm and collected plays that oozes confidence. The one hiccup was more of him being hooked but as he didn't have an Oilers jersey with 97 on the back, it wasn't going to be called. He made some really good passes and some well-timed pinches and rush joins. Foot speed looked good. Nice start OJ! 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddogy Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Olli made some mistakes but he was OK. As expected his mobility was not great. If teams start exploiting his lack of mobility then Rathbone or Rafferty may get a shot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He stopped Draisaitl from walking him several times. 2 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
