GrizzlyAdams Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I know it should be goldy, and rightfully so. But i feel brisebois is criminally underrated and deserves a bit of love Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-AJ- Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Goldobin and it's not even close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Vandelay Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Tough choice for me. But I think I've reasoned out why I've chosen Virtanen. I wouldn't trade Virtanen for Goldobin; and I would be tempted to trade Goldobin for Virtanen. Really close in value IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is exactly how I was looking at this as well!!! 2 totally different players, but with what we have in our system, I think Virtanen brings more of what we need from a prospect.

I'm sorry, but the guy actually regressed after an underwhelming first NHL season. He's far enough removed from his draft year (in which he was weirdly ranked way higher than he should have been by virtually everyone, the Canucks included) that it's starting to become irrelevant to his current ranking.

Ha, so much crow to ear in the coming seasons. If you're right, they, I'll say so. This consensus thing is effed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had flashes of brilliance in Utica this past season but just didn't show it in a consistent basis . Still has one hell of a shot though, hits like a truck but he could certainly use improvement with his defensive game. With more time here in the A though, he'll have plenty of opportunities to improve on that. Button was somewhat right about his ranking of Jake back then but he can easily prove him wrong. Patience and time will be key with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What other than point totals makes you think he regressed? His motivation? His physicality? His defence? His speed? His stamina? Is he not in tremendous shape? Please give me some information other than point totals that are making some of you give up on him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

48MPHSlapShot Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 25 minutes ago, Hortankin said: His motivation? Obviously. 25 minutes ago, Hortankin said: His physicality? Hugely. 25 minutes ago, Hortankin said: His defence? His speed? His stamina? That's all fine and dandy. If only he knew how to use it. 25 minutes ago, Hortankin said: Is he not in tremendous shape? Apparently only after a season of hockey. And, since you brought it up, yes. His point totals are important. They're damned important. Regardless of the situation, if you can only manage to put up 19 points in 65 games in the AHL after putting up 13 points in 55 games in the best league in the world, there's a problem, as much as his most blindly dedicated supporters would have you believe otherwise. edit: Maybe he can put it together. I hope he can, I really do, but I'm certainly not holding my breath. I'd love to be wrong about him. I really would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
