NewbieCanuckFan Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 A result of Sutter being hurt. Nobody else worth of note calling up from the Comets (still an area in the organization that doesn't get enough attention) and at least Green knows what he'll get from Archie (and Archie will know what's expected of him).

theo5789 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 As much as it would hurt Utica, we probably should've called up a center. We are going to be overworking Horvat if he is the only dependable center and his injury will come soon at this rate. If we are not calling up a center then Green simply will have to trust Pettersson, Gaudette and Granlund to take draws instead of putting Horvat out for faceoff duty all game. I assume Gaunce is injured otherwise this would've been a good time for him to showcase himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vannuck59 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Would rather give one of the kids a shot MacEwen, Jasek , or Dahlen. Try them out . give them a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume Gaunce is injured otherwise this would've been a good time for him to showcase himself. For what it's worth, the current Canucks' roster actually has several players who can play center. My guess is management wants to let MacEwen continue to grow in the AHL and is prepared to have one of Granlund, Schaller or Motte play center while possibly giving Gaudette more responsibilities. I agree with others that I would have liked the Canucks to call up MacEwen but the Comets are decimated with their own injuries and it's a good opportunity for MacEwen to take a leadership role there. I do hope the Canucks eventually give MacEwen a call up to encourage him and the progress he has made. When Sutter got hurt last night, it felt like the Canucks are living in a Final Destination story with injury out to get them. It's not like the Canucks have escaped injury before though so this is an unbelievable string of bad luck over several years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(you know, the part that was an opinion..) Sorry I guess scoring a goal in your only game (the only goal scored in said game) = deserving a spot is an opinion. I also guess that scoring 9 points in 27 games as a 4th liner = proving himself is also an opinion. I also guess that being visibly harder to play against and putting out full effort in preseason = proving himself is also an opinion. Opinions that most people hold, and clearly the coaching and mgmt staff hold. One might almost say they are facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm saying is the guy obviously wasn't referring to the part of the post you chose to reply to... and you previously said that the "fact" was that he scored, not any of the above.
