kingofsurrey Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Canuck PTO's this year ? Are they worthwhile to make a more competitive camp ? Anyone that you would like to see invited to camp this year ? So far i see PLAYER TEAM POS AGE RESULT Despres, Simon Letestu, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Wouldn't be opposed if the Canucks brought in Veterans like Stewart or Emelin for a PTO. Even a past PTO in Scottie Upshall would be cool too. Some veterans who know how to play a physical brand of hockey for a preseason filled with players who are seeking to be sh*t disturbers and earn themselves a job. Nice to keep those loose cannons in check. Especially if we are planning to play a lot of the kids to see what they got, having some extra muscle in the lineup is nice.

So far i see PLAYER TEAM POS AGE RESULT Despres, Simon Letestu, Mark I could see Despres well before Letestu; he's younger, bigger, and a potential fill in for Guddy, should he continue his inability to play a full season. Letestu, we have WAY too many wingers to need to bring in yet another grinder. With Despres, I could see (at least to start the season) Edler - Stetch MDZ - Tanev Poulliott/Hutton - Guddy and spares of Despres and Biega. By then, we can hope (pray?!) that a buyer for Hutton or Poulliott is found. I don't really think any of the D currently in Utica are completely NHL ready.

JM_ Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 I don't mind the idea of a couple of guys for competition at camp but we don't really need anyone to fill any roles this year, which is a nice change. Got lots of Skille already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Skylit Drive Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Well your In luck Despres signed a PTO with the Habs a few weeks ago and Letestu signed a PTO with the Panthers today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingofsurrey Posted August 14, 2018 Author Share Posted August 14, 2018 Sometimes the PTO can just be to increase the competition in camp or i wonder if sometimes it is a bit of a favour for a guy trying to land somewhere else.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xereau Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 I think they already made three PTO's to Beagle, Schaller, and Rouselle, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.V.'s slurp Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 There is also a minimum veteran player requirement for preseason games if I remember correctly. So I believe that plays a factor as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appleboy Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Let's bring some more old guys into camp to compete with the youth for the 0 spots that are open. What they should have done was not sign anyone and then invited a few players to training camp. Then sign the best two players to one year deals . Hopping to flip someone at the dead line. What they did was signed two older players to 4 year deals that makes them impossible to trade. Just like Gagner and Zotto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should have looked into their crystal ball so they would know exactly who's going to be available to fill the exact roles they require. Typical Canucks management. Am I doing it right?
