I coached a team to have this mentality but it happened between the whistles...and standing behind the bench, I at times was intimidated of my own team and the way we played...if that makes sense. ...there were no bench clearing brawls, but on occasion, there were 5 guys on the team fighting on the ice at the same time...lol (usually happened when we faced another team that had a pack mentality).

It's the mind set the hawks had...I agree and Jim brought in Rooster and that turned Jake into a more of a pest when his in the line up....this is when I miss DD...damn neck....yea I get that ha it's good to see I'm not the only fan that thinks this way. Not to take away from the Sedins but that's why I never liked them...they changed the culture of the team going from WCE days to them...still great players but not my type of tea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the players nowadays have too much invested money wise in their careers to play this way...it would shorten their careers. Case and point, DD.

YearoftheNuck Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Does anyone know who all has come to Vancouver for extended interviews? I know that Krebs came, and I believe Zegras as well, but any word on any other players? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you could argue that maybe Boldy's ceiling isn't quite as high as some of these other guys, but I also think his floor is probably the highest. Zegras really excites me. The combined creativity and hockey IQ of Zegras and Pettersson paired with Boeser's finishing ability would be something to see 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His offensive creativity and hockey IQ is through the roof. Really enjoy his game. All the finesse behind the back passes and spinorama no look passes would be amazing with Pettersson doing them right back. I want one of Turcotte, Zegras or Boldy! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you It was reported that the Canucks were brining in 2-3 prospects for extended interviews this past week as well as meeting again with Zegras closer to the draft. Newhook and Krebs were confirmed to be 2 of the prospects brought in. It could just be those 3, or as reported, there could be a 4th that we haven't heard about yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always got worried about these extended interviews because it kind of shows your hand. Like say Philly or Minny really like Zegras so now knowing that we had an extended interview they might try to jump us in the draft. Unless it’s a smokescreen and Broberg is his guy all along in which case I’d cry lol not really but I wouldn’t be happy about it. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not a secret Read stuff on Turcot. Says he’s the fastest skater in the draft. Faster than Hughes even. I think if Broberg is gone, we will take Turcot. What I want is for us to trade down to the Hab’s 15 spot, and pick up another second in the process. Then the Habs can pick Podkolzin (who I think drops, and the Habs like) and we can take Seider at 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
