aGENT Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Be interesting to see who/if they paper any kids down at the TDL to join the Comets when the Canucks season is over. Virtanen I could see but not Boeser (though he'd clean up down there ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it wouldn't make any sense to paper down Boeser, he has already proven he is NHL calibre, making him play more games would be dangerous as it would likely make him susceptible to fatigue, and even worse injury from fatigue or from reckless AHL goons targeting him. I would like to see Virtanen down in Utica playing prime mins. I believed from the beginning he should've started in Utica despite his solid preseason. Kid has no confidence and the mismanagement of his development has really hurt him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hobart16 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 If Holm gets a chance the Canucks games are going to be very interesting. I suspect Biega will get the nod though with Tanev out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugar baby watermelon Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I hope they give him a chance to play versus letting him watch Biega throw empty hits and take the puck successfully through to the offensive end only to waste any kind of opportunity by giving up the puck for an odd man rush the other way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure he's ready yet, according to Cull's recent comments. He's made lots of progress but still has work to do. Would expect he's here at least until Tanev returns but yeah, certainly hope he gets in a game or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virtanen’s last NHL goal was a very confident goal. There Is no issue of confidence, why make one up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cory40 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Nice to see Holm called up. This is JB's last chance to see what he has in Holm. I bet if they don't play him , he will become a decent defenseman for another NHL club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holm himself has gone on record saying he doesn't intend on heading back to Europe, pretty sure he's viewed development time in Utica as his path to the NHL with the Canucks.

Rollieo Del Fuego Posted February 14, 2018 Author Share Posted February 14, 2018 Score a goal or two Holmy...that will give Greener something to think about...we could use a goal or 2 from the back end and Stecher is looking like the only one that might start doing it...

Not just that, the fact that he's shown that he can handle the AHL must give him more confidence in making the NHL, so why bolt now? If he plays some NHL games, it will show if he can transition to a higher league or at least show up what he needs to improve on for next year.

Uh, ok. Holm was one of the more intriguing UFA signings last summer in my book as he developed so well over past two years in Sweden to become a very sound 2-way Dman. I think it is great he is getting his shot at the NHL. Not sure anyone "stumbled" here but am hoping Holm puts a stop to the silly comments.

Not only that but Holm is a RFA after this season. The only NHL team that he will be playing for any time soon is the Vancouver Canucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
