Popular Post HorvatToBaertschi Posted July 30, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 30, 2018 SO much hype around Hughes (and rightly so) it’s crazy to think that we’re talking much less about our SHL playoff and season mvp, U20 record holding golden boy. This prospect pool that we have is insane. EP will be on the squad, I say pair him with Virtanen and Eriksson. Virtanen has that PF style that he’s putting together quite well, with blazing speed that im sure EP will thrive off of. Eriksson has size, technique and is incredible defensively. I see EP waking the sleeping offensive side of Loui and I think that line will be by christmas a legit NHL calibre 2nd line. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dats hockey Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 From a being competitive stand point, if the price is right would making a package for patches from Montreal be a good idea so he can play with EP if we choose to put EP at centre? He is a pure goal scorer that’s been looking for a playmaking centre his whole career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tre Mac Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Honestly I could see anywhere form 40-100 points from EP40, and wouldn't be surprised with any total in between. Nucks really need to start marketing this kid, at least get a confirmation on a jersey number so we can start buying his jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any price Montreal is going to be willing to accept will be more than we would want to pay for one year of Patches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollieo Del Fuego Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 I remember comparing Boeser to Laine at the beginning of last season....WOW...did I take some flake for that.... Here is what Travis Yost has to say about that: The player who most closely compared to Boeser was none other than Winnipeg Jets super sniper Patrik Laine, though it should be noted that Nikita Kucherov, Rickard Rakell, Phil Kessel and William Karlsson are also in that top 10. Again, these are descriptive measures – any time a player blows up in a season like Boeser did, he’s going to have some very favourable comparables. But what’s interesting is how many of these big goal-scoring names get into the top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollieo Del Fuego Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 EP doesn't really compare to anyone currently in the NHL... Frankly his on ice "Look and vibe" are as close to Gretzky as I have ever seen....he will blow Nico's last season out of the water... Just watch...! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a pure goal scorer that’s been looking for a playmaking centre his whole career. Pacioretty doesn’t really make sense as a trade target. Montreal is looking for high end assets in return. Ideally a young top 6 C. You’re not gonna get him for the usual “Baertschi +” proposals. Add to that that he’s UFA next summer and I don’t see a fit for Vancouver Edited July 30, 2018 by qwijibo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB is a better winger for EP than Taylor puck-hog Hall would be....and will score more goals this year than a Late 20's Hall...! I think EP would have outscored Nico last year...this year he will better 52 points by a wide margin...given the games... Lol The guy has double more points than any of his teammates (except 1 and was very close to double on him) and you take a shot at him? Seems like if he wasn't scoring no one would be ! He doesn't play 60 min games ! Where was everyone else and secondary points? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenhodgejr Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 I just don't understand how we could consider not putting Pettersson and Boeser on the same line. Brock is such a good goal scorer that we need someone with the vision and skill to get him the puck. Other teams goalies all knew the puck was going to Brock last season. This season Pettersson has just as lethal of a shot but on the other side. I think the two of them will get a lot of goals and assists together. Horvat seems like a good solid fit for a net front presence and a big body to get rebounds. They will be our most dangerous line in my opinion and we need to keep them together. Pettersson Horvat Boeser Baertchi Sutter Virtanen Roussel Beagle Eriksson Leipsic Schaller Goldobin Granlund 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the most part anyways, even though I think Pettersson may be better served playing centre in Utica or the Canucks. In the future though a Dahlen-Pettersson-Boeser line could be amazing. Dahlen is a good shot and goes to the net. Pettersson feeding sick passes and shots and boeser just racking up the goals!

Well Horvat, Boeser, Pettersson, Gaudette, Virtanen, Leipsic are all guaranteed to be NHL players for us. So theres six. Dahlen, Lind, Goldy aren't guaranteed to be NHL players but they are all very good bets to be so! So theres nine. Palmu, MacEwen, Gadjovich and Jasek are all extremely hard workers and have real drive to become NHL players! So these 13 are my best bets and I think most of them will pan out! Others with high chances include Madden, Lockwood and Manukyan but each are questionable as to how their development will progress.

He'll have to show a whole lot to prove he's an NHL'er. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
