Sorry to say but some of the youngsters (Goldobin, Gaudette, Motte etc.) aren't ready for prime time yet. We are lacking experience both on the PP and 5 on 5. Lots of drive but no experience.

Gagner will provide this until some of the injured return. Maybe he will surprise, I guess time will tell.

You might be right, I'm good with this move if it means moving Granny to the wing & sitting one of Motte or Liepcic , those guys have been  passengers for sure

Makes sense really. Gaudette and Motte could really use some more time in the AHL and the Comets could really use them. Guys like Gaunce and Leipsic aren't stepping up with the opportunity so why not call him up and hope he can come back in motivated and make an impact.

 

Might of been the wake up call he needed

Gaunce has 3 points in 3 games and only played 4 minutes yesterday.

Hard to deny the fact something needs to happen. Hopefully Gags proves he’s worth a damn still. He gets a lot of flack, from myself included, for his comments on the way out and the comments around the league about him being waived. But this team needs a kick in the pants with all this losing. Prove yourself Gags.

Hopefully he wants to be in the NHL & realizes he sucked & that’s why they sent him down , but this is Gagne we’re talking about so he might have a good game but that means about 10 really useless games to follow, the guy is such a frack’n waist of bench space surely they can bring up someone else , he’s megna 2.0 

Wow this thread is all over the place. I picked this comment out, because Megna 2.0 is Motte. He skates fast all over the place and gets very little done. He's essentially a PK specialist. Schaller really hasn't found his game yet. Gaunce and Archibald aren't in a healthy lineup for Green, so I like the call up.

 

I think Goldobin is doing fine. He just needs to stay in his role for an extended period of time. Think about how many times he's been shuffled around and demoted since we acquired him. I'm willing to give him the time to develop into a top 6 player, because he has shown flashes of it so far this season.

You really think Goldobin is doing fine? Playing with the best offensive player the Canucks have and he has 2 goals. He is the best penalty killer the Canucks have, unfortunately it’s the Canucks power play that he kills. Might be an N H L player one day but not now. Like Motte Leipsic Pouliot Gaudette they should be in the minors

Canucks draft Jack Hughes with the first overall pick. 

Canucks can come dead last but we ain’t get’n a 1st over all pic , we will pic fourth, so who’s good at 4 , but reality says we’ll come 29th over all & pic 7th so probably better to watch these guys try & win some games our div is weak nuckers have lost 5 in a row & we’re still top 3 in our div

It was more in jest for a recall of a player from another NHL teams farm team.
