You don't have to be his agent to see what transpired , Jim should have traded him to Tampa and would have gotten a great return , instead he will end up trading his rights for a second or third if he's lucky.

This was start of last season without Virtanen and Archie in line up. They are not the "smallest" team in league by any means. But, but, size man. If we add a guy the size of akebono then instant cup win man. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm curious as to what your source is on this though. Also curious as to what your source is on this apparent Tampa Bay deal. Also curious as to what your thoughts are on why Tryamkin still has a picture of himself in a Canuck jersey as his profile pic on Instagram.

Popular Post nowhereman Posted April 21, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 21, 2018 (edited) All I hear about these days is that small and speedy is the way to go. And, yet, there's confusion when bigger teams like the Jets have success. At this point, it's pretty easy to see that there is no "right" path to success in the NHL. There are so many factors that go into a successful team. Edited April 21, 2018 by nowhereman 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being big is still a good attribute as long as it doesn't sacrifice speed and skill. The problem is that players like that are rare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are so many factors that go into a successful team. That's not true. I don't think anyone is actively calling for "small" players, but rather fast players. The two aren't bonded together. Wheeler can play the speed game. He just also happens to be 6'5 and 225 lbs. Ehlers can also play the speed game. He just happens to be 6'0 and 170 lbs. Speed is just the underlying foundation of a lot of recent successful teams. Size and skill are other factors you consider on top of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted April 25, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2018 Quotes from a recent Sporting News article: http://www.sportingnews.com/ca/nhl/news/vancouver-canucks-prospects-lukas-jasek-jonathan-dahlen-kole-lind-utica-comets-north-america-professional-game-analysis-statistics/smqaooandwh41n5z9cxpflaxk Lind: “It was an up and down season,” said Lind who was forced to miss the world juniors because he wasn’t fully recovered from mono. “Disappointment and heartbreak at times too, but I think it’s big for a hockey player to try to battle through those things and be mentally tough. I think that’s something I’ve tried to work on throughout my hockey career, use it as motivation and play with more of a chip on your shoulder more than anything.” “It’s been a big transition for sure,” he said. “It was a quick turn around. I hopped into games right away and it was a lot different for me, a lot faster and I had to make those plays a split second quicker and it was a lot different, but I felt good out there. “I think the pace picked up a little bit in the (WHL) playoffs out there, but it’s still a lot faster out here and the pace is just continuing to pick up every game leading into the playoffs now.” Cull: “He’s a hockey-smart player, kind of anticipates the play very well,” Cull said. “His hockey sense is good. He’s come in and he’s a good young prospect, looks like. “It’s going to be a tough battle for any of these new guys coming in, catching up with the pace of the game, but it’s great to have him.” Linden: “He won’t be back in Kelowna next year,” Linden said. “He’s going to be a pro. He’s going to be most likely in Utica, but yeah I think he’s played six games and understands time and space is a different animal at this level. “Kole coming from junior, he’s a really skilled kid, but he understands where he needs to be better.” 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Father Ryan Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 The kid needs a year or two in Utica. The WHL is not like playing in any pro league. He needs to get some time to get used to the speed of the game, especially in combination with some size. I see Lind as having a ceiling of a borderline first line, but more likely a good-very good 2nd liner. He likely could pair up with a center that likes to drive the net, and is more of a scorer than playmaker. Great find in the second round. I was originally a bit peeved that we didn't draft Nicholas Hague (who was the very next pick). But after Lind's season, I'd say we got a really good player, potentially.
