I had no idea he could fight like that. He could be a nuclear deterrent, that rarely fights, much like Guddy. Having two destroyers in the lineup every game would be awesome. Let’s add Tryamkin, and stir.. could be your new favourite drink? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s so rare to find big guys that can intimidate with their physical nature, who can still play 5 on 5. Having Guddy, Big Mac, and Tryamkin would be an extremely imposing trio. Think we could get Tryamkin back? I enjoyed watching him play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you think Brisebois has done in his two games. He looked big to me. I didn’t realize he was so big bodied. I like Brisebois. He's a keeper. He can make the big club next year I think. If Brisebois can develop into a legit NHL defenceman then it will be a lot easier to deal a Dman for scoring help up front. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alot of fans do, but I try to keep him out of my dream rosters as it's a long shot for him to return and it's just not worth thinking about unless he does decide to return. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he goes back to the AHL, after the injury run.. hope to see Sautner re-appear before the season ends... both will look to take Pouliotte’s place next season.. maybe more room made for more developing D .

And I have to add, it is nice to see fair opportunity coming to the likes of our prospects when they are brought up. Green doesn’t seem to have the same problem that Desjardins had.. i think the Dipietro emergency, would have gone differently.. possibly risk the health of our #1 in Markstrom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phat Fingers Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 16 hours ago, Elias Pettersson said: Stone will be a UFA. We can sign him for free. Not saying he would come to Vancouver but not a lot of contenders are going to have the cap space to sign him long term. Juolevi had major knee surgery this year, he's not going to make the club out of training camp. If we re-sign Edler to a 3-4 year deal then we would have Edler, Hutton and Hughes on the left side. No room for Juolevi. If Tanev sticks around as well as Stecher and Woo comes into the fold with the possibility of Tryamkin coming back in a year then there is no room for Juolevi on the right side either. I have no problem waiting for Juolevi to develop and he could very well be a good top 4 Dman one day, but we need help up front, we need legit top 6 wingers who can play with BO. We don't have any right now on the roster. So that is why I propose Huberdeau and Stone, to speed up the rebuild. I thought JB stated that OJ was on track and expected him to be fully ready for training camp. So are you saying he wont be ready for training camp, or are you saying he will need some reps in the AHL before making the jump to essentially complete the work he missed this season? Nothing to do with his physical recovery from the surgery. I want to clarify as I haven't heard of any issues with his recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll consider it a success if he makes the AHL. Looks bad with hindsight.... 'Very dire' indeed. Is he a success now Guntrix? Do you want a mulligan on that one.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes, OJ, Brisebios and others are all on the cusp. Add in the Russian Giant and there is some good reason to think about whom to move next year. I expect Edler to resign, Guddy to resign. Tanev could go either way. Hutton, Stecher and Pouliot are all replaceable to an extent if others exceed their abilities. Stecher is one I would want to keep, but only of there is room for him to take real minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AT some point the decision on Pouliot has to be made. The interesting question will be whether he shows enough that another team might give us a pick for him or that he can be a throw in on a multi player deal. I agree with you I doubt he is with the team next fall. Unlike Hutton, who's biggest issue was conditioning, IMHO Pouliot's biggest challenge is his reading of the plays on ice. I do think he is getting better and think his play has improved in the last month. The org depth is passing him by. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody wants this guy except as a depth seventh defensemen right now. If we get a 6th or 7th rounder for him we should count our blessings. His NHL career is toast after this season.

However, he will need at least until Christmas before he gets enough reps in Utica to challenge for a spot on the big club. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn't done well. If he had beaten out Hutton for a spot with Stecher.... who knows. He can pull a Baumgartner and kick around the league and end up in the AHL as a depth guy that never quite put the pieces together. Unless some miracle happens, his best shot was this season to turn the corner. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EP is the closest thing we have to Hughes...Stecher is the next...distant...far distant...thing we have like Hughes. Same thing with EP...we had no-one like him and he wasn't going to spend a drop of time in Utica...neither will Hughes. As for Joulevi...he was ready to go...he will be a year more mature and there is enough time for him to hit the gym in June and be on the ice in August at latest. I can see him needing a few games to a month in Utica if we still have both Tanev and Edler...we won't have Pooalot and Hughes can play either side if need be... So if we have all the D we have now...then maybe ne needs until the first injury call up but that's it...it 's the show from there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
