I agree, these kids right from september have played a full season, plus playoffs, plus Junior prospect showcase tourneys to showcase their skills, some already participated in the world juniors, NHL prospect camps, to the world junior camps etc. Very little rest.

And there are sooooo many opportunities for TC scouts/coaching staff to judge these players . You don't need to send the kids all over the country, send them to Finland for another showcase, Russia-Canada CHL challenge in the Fall, another TC camp before the WJHC.... it is just too much.

I was thinking the same thing. I am glad Juolevi is not playing for Finland at the World Junior Summer Showcase. I would also prefer if Pettersson were not playing for Sweden, especially if he has a nagging injury. I think there is a pretty big "sports science" literature that indicates that sometimes "less is more" -- getting adequate rest is as important as training hard and good nutrition, and getting full recovery from injury before re-stressing the injury is particularly important. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyndall2 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 See what he can do at the Jr tournament and at the Young Guns but send him back to the Rockets for another big season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonberries Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Lind is playing on the second line with Gadjovich and Cliff Pu vs Finland. The rebroadcast is playing on TSN 2 now. First period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSnipeshow91 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I thought Lind was pretty good. Made some smart plays with the puck, nearly had a breakaway, moved the puck around well. He did look like he was floating ,and he got pushed around a bit. But you can definitely tell he's a smart player with and without the puck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might look a little lost but adjusting his game would be harder for him than Gadjovich. Coaching moved him around and he seemed to get stronger as the game progressed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rollieo Del Fuego Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I though LInd looked great...he was stealing pucks and being in the right place on D., as well as making some nice passes....really don't know why he wasn't getting played at the end of the 3rd period...hopefully just a bit banged up and not a coaching decision...

I think Team Canada has too many players. Heck even Cody Glass didn't play the 1st 2 games or something. Gadjovich Canada's most effective player the 1st 2 games sat out their latest game.

dpn1 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 The coaches must see something in Lind. He played but Inspector Gadget did't. I don't mean to say Jonah is no good. I really like him as a prospect and think he could Make the nucks down the road. Just trying to pump his tires a bit (Roberto Luongo words ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is an evaluation camp for those that 'might' be on the radar. IMHO Gadjovich sat out to give some TOI to others. He has played extremely well and definitely improved his chances to play at WJC. Lind played another game as coaching seems to want him in the 3C spot with a defensive posture. His play reminds me of Cassels with less physicality but more speed.

SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Not sure the details but Kole tweeted this: And others on Twitter have replied with condolences. I read that Kole's great grandfather Lawrence Lind passed in July. I'm kinda hoping that's the "pop" he's referring to and that he didn't just lose his father or grandfather as well this summer.

TFerguson Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 (edited) I'm excited about this kid because of his play but I also love the attitude he brings. A bit of a swagger without being arrogant and a little less filtered than we normally get around here. If he can overachieve even a little in his career - I'm looking forward to having him. https://mobile.twitter.com/Canucks/status/906382722544758784/video/1 Edited September 9, 2017 by AllWeatherFan Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
