But so far he hasn't maintained any consistent forward momentum in his development. It's one thing after another. When I take a chance venturing into this thread, I risk being disappointed more often then not. Oh well... We have have many other exciting prospect threads to visit... And Juolevi may still turn out to be a decent defencemen for us for years to come... But I've let go of the hope that he'll live up to his original billing as top 2 defencemen. Having the flu is not a character flaw. You need a time out of this thread if you really believe that having the flu is somehow related to being injury prone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot the anti Vaxxer??? Vaccines are for pu$$is!! To be fair, it could open a roster spot on the parent team if OJ can get enough teammates to pass it along. Then Edler goes down and OJ gets called up! Genius. It's the same thing kids do to grandparents. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoneypuckOverlord Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 He’s been playing very good at least the last 3 weeks. I’m still hopeful though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need more defensive help than upfront. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is where the hype of the TDL trumps logical thought. Simmonds does not make much sense especially when the prospect pool has options that make more sense. It is a great goal to make playoffs but the Canucks will not be serious contenders. If that is the assumption then the playoffs are an opportunity to give this team some experience and an opportunity by management to evaluate their players and needs moving forward. Benning isn't moving OJ or Woo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to think that if Juolevi is being dangled, then Rathbone is signing at the end of this year and has a legitimate shot at making the team within the next couple of years. With Edler and Hughes in front on LD, there really is only one spot left for the two (Brisebois could be a stop gap bottom pairing guy until Edler retires). So I could see Juolevi being shopped, but I would expect a better return than just Simmonds or Wood. I imagine if this were in the talks that we must have a serious cap dump going back the other way involved. Which would make sense if we are shipping out a bottom 6 cap dump and replacing with a short term bottom 6 player. Woo in the rumours kinda surprises me. RD isn't a strong area for us.
