-Vintage Canuck- Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Quote Vancouver, B.C. - Vancouver Canucks General Manager Jim Benning announced today that the club has recalled centre Adam Gaudette from the AHL Utica Comets. Gaudette, 22, has appeared in four games for the Comets this season, registering four points (2-2-4) and two penalty minutes. He made his professional debut in 2017-18 with the Vancouver Canucks, playing five NHL games. Previously, he spent three seasons with Northeastern University where he was the recipient of the 2018 Hobey Baker Award. The Braintree, MA native was originally selected in the fifth round, 149th overall, by the Vancouver Canucks in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft. https://www.nhl.com/canucks/news/vancouver-canucks-adam-gaudette/c-300957228 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dombrova22 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I'm guessing this is to replace Beagle. Enjoy the overreaction Vintage, it's coming lmao. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mooby Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Beags was doing a good job on the PK, sad to see him out. Also really glad they ended up bringing Gaudette instead of moving Granny to C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Buzzsaw* Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Kid definitely deserves a chance. He was close to making the team in the pre-season and is a logical choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EP Phone Home Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Guess Adam won’t play against the Marlies today then. Was thinking they would recall him after as the Canucks don’t play again until Tuesday. That said he’s coming off his first few goals at the pro level. Good time to call him up when his confidence is going. You have to look at the silver linings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HerrDrFunk Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 I can't help but notice Gaudette is higher on the depth chart than Gagner. Management probably isn't thrilled with story Gagner tried to spin about going on waivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping they can keep it up and maybe Gaudette 5 on 5 can add some more offensive spark. Granlund has been solid and Id like to see Motte back in for Schaller.

Think you're right right Motte. Might be the best option. Granlund has been real good in the role given to him. Hope he keeps it up, it's an underrated role but so important.

I think that sending him to play in TO with the Marlies has a dual purpose. 1. Respect for Gags 2. Not getting in the way of development for Canuck prospects in Utica. 7 minutes ago, mooby said: Beags was doing a good job on the PK, sad to see him out.

6string Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Good move by the organization by having our prospects know they are in demand! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SingleThorn Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 So, if the Pittsburgh game was today, it would be very useful having our AHL team out East ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got blasted here for suggesting it is time to move our AHL affiliate to our province or nearby in the PNW even California as other teams in our division have currently. Interesting to see where Seattle puts their farm team... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

California to be close to all the other teams - otherwise it's just too much travel. https://theahl.com/team-map-directory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ossi Vaananen Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 o0o0o0o0o0 I thought they'd move Granlund to center and get Motte/Leipsic in. I hope Gaudette gets to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granlund probably moves to C4 and Motte comes in to replace Beagle but at wing. No reason to take Schaller out. Gaudette has probably been recalled in case Pettersson can't go.
