Popular Post Nuck1991 Posted June 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 22, 2019 (edited) NO FKING WAY...a russian? whyyy? edit : im sorry for my comment, hopefuly this guy ends up being the next tarasenko. People complaining abt JT miller trade, but Jb did the right thing and got Bo his winger u cant wait till 2021 draft, he cant waste Bo s prime and this gives us lots of forwards to work with. If only we cant get a puck moving Rhd somehow. Edited June 23, 2019 by Nuck1991 6 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post logic Posted June 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 22, 2019 (edited) Big steal, was ranked top 5 most of season. The fact he has two years on contract is not a worry what so ever, we will need good young talent on ELCs when we are ready to contend. Character is definitely not an issue if JB was willing to pick him IN Vancouver. His game oozes Canadian play-style is absolutely relentless and plays 110% passion and wears his heart on his sleeve. This guy IS NOT a finesse, dangle you sniper type of Russian player, he's a puck hound, in your face, dump it in and beat everyone to the puck, sheer force of will, I want it more than you type of player, he reminds me of a Russian cross of a meaner Horvat X Virtanen. -Horvat Goes all in every night, competes for his teammates, very well rounded game, heavy on the boards. Complete 3 zone player, Good all around offensive tools but not elite in any aspect, stride needs work but can be corrected. -Virtanen Possesses elite physical attributes but the IQ isn't quite up to par, has elite north-south potential. Can go from the d-zone up the ice on an end-to-end rush in matter of seconds. Honestly Podkolzin is an a lot more refined version of Virtanen in their draft years, this is because Podzolkin is already been playing mainly against men in Russia's AHL, Podzolkin seems to be gritter than both Horvat and Virtanen in the sense he has the tenacity to get in your face and be more chippy than just playing a heavy game. He can throw big hits against men and isn't afraid to back it up his KHL rights are owned by SKA a powerhouse franchise that are notoriously hard to negotiate with, and are also known to not include young players in their squad as they can afford to buy players every year. 2021-2022 Big name FA/Trade - Petey (8-11M) - Podkolzin ( 900k) elc Or FA - Petey - Boeser FA/Virtanen - Horvat - Podkolzin Edited June 22, 2019 by logic 5 2 4 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhippy Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 (edited) I will say this right now. And PRAY the curse of the Canucks drafting Russians is broken Ewww That being said, if this kid hits even half of his skill set Benning will have hit a home run. The guys neck is bigger than some people's thighs (Edit** Only Eww because I want instant gratification and wanted Boldy because we need some decent LW prospects) Edited June 22, 2019 by Warhippy 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 (edited) Ballsy of Jim. He may no longer have the job when this kid comes over. High risk, high reward. Mayne makes Tryamkin a little happier Edited June 22, 2019 by Provost 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Smashian Kassian Posted June 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 22, 2019 We need strength, look at the playoffs. This guy is strong, can pass & shoot. Competes all over the ice. Plays like a dog on a bone. Imagine him & Bo Horvat playing together. Hopefully he comes over a year early, but either way we'd be waiting for another guy to develop like Jim said. 2 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
