Quantum Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Wouldn't mind having him. He's a decent prospect and you can't really lose with a free prospect. He's also a Defensive prospect (shoots Right), big, and seems to have good hands. I'm also not shocked to see the Oilers being on the list. Charelli was the GM when Matthew Benning was drafted, Matthew Benning is from Edmonton (and the hometown thing may come into play), and Matthew Benning may not want to be seen as the "Canucks prospect who was signed because he was the nephew of the GM and not because of his quality of play"... so there is that. Still though, he'd bolster the Canucks defensive prospect pool and I'm not against that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB5 Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 If he signs, hope he uses his signing bonus for a nice down filled parka and some warm mittens because its cold in Alaska in the winter where he will most likely play his first pro season.

Hairy Kneel Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Good for one of our farm teams if this is a fit for Green. He grew up playing in Edm he may go there. Sounds like a Biega type RHD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a bonus that Benning happens to know him well. If that were the case with this management group we would have drafted Ty Ronning because of his last name. It's alot different from the days of drafting Morgan Clarke just because he was Ian Clarke's son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like our prospect pool is brimming with defensive talent. I don't think he'll be in that tough to beat out the likes of Sautner and Negrin.

Don't know enough of this player to state unequivocally that he's not worth it. But on the surface, it seems a little fishy. The Bruins aren't exactly bursting with young D-men, and for whatever reason they let him walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lock Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I love how fans just automatically assume he's coming here: 1. The tweet said Vancouver OR Edmonton 2. The 2 destinations above are possible destinations, not confirmed destinations 3. The tweeter could just as easily mention Vancouver because of the ties and not actually knowing if that would happen or not. It's the summer and the pot's easy enough to stir while the water's still.
