You need some perspective on St Louis Blues. They made the playoffs 6 years in a row and then missed them one year because their entire core was injured. After acquiring Ryan O'Reilly, they of course won the cup. We've missed the playoffs many years in a row now. We are in a much much different position then St. Louis.

I think that we already have an O'reilly in Horvat. Bo's (24yrs) having a bit of an off year this season, but he has been improving each year and is not yet at his peak. Ryan (28yrs) didn't really evolve into what he is now until the last couple of years. Besides, adding a $7.5M contract would create havoc with the salary cap, while giving up on a top 10 draft pick who hasn't even started an ELC would be sheer madness. Love O'reilly and would love him on my team. Just bad timing. Be happy with JT Miller for a much lower price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such horrible picture quality from this arena its a joke. If you host hockey you should be able to see the numbers of the players when they move on a 2000 dollar tv. Standard definition on a high def channel. Yay. NHL Network is streaming the games in 720 from what I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckledraggin Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 On 12/21/2019 at 1:21 PM, canuckledraggin said: "So why did Podkolzin sign with a club that probably doesn’t have his development as its top priority? Per Eronko, every 17-year-old in Russia is obligated to sign a standard three-year deal; it’s not possible to sign a one- or two-year agreement. Podkolzin’s current deal reportedly pays him about 300,000 rubles per year, roughly the equivalent of $4,800 USD." --------------- So why wouldn't he buy out his contract and sign over here next year? His signing bonus would be about 90k and he would make 70k US for playing in the AHL next season. Seems like a no-brainer to me. He'll get way more playing time and 30 times as much money over here. Then there's the off chance that he could actually be NHL ready at some point and get a call up to the NHL... I don't usually re-post anything, but I'm very curious. The fans of Vancouver would easily be able to start a go fund me and get this kid over here next year. $4800 for what he is doing for a living is not right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phat Fingers Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 15 hours ago, Bure1010 said: Is podkolzin the next nichushkin both highly rated in there draft year and Most people thought nichushkin was the next malkin. Podkolzins development has been stumped with his deployment by his club team with getting zero ice time in the khl and gets bounced around there minor teams without getting any chemistry or time to find his game. has not looked good in the world juniors. Wasn’t on the ice at the end of the USA game. If anyone saw the timeout in the last minute podz was on the ice larionov drew up a play and he got pulled off the ice. I think the best thing for his career is for jb and aquilini seeing how much it’ll cost to buy out his contract from Russia. Nick and Podz could not be further apart as player types. One works and one doesn't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post AV's Coin Posted December 31, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 31, 2019 This is how snake bitten Podkolzin has been with respect to points... Sets up a man in front and goalie is completely lost only to have team mate whiff on the puck. Throughout the Canada-Russia series and the World Juniors, I have seen elite passes from Pod setting up open looks like this but unfortunately the points arent coming .... yet! 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stat watchers will miss this. They will be surprised when he arrives. Although this is no different than any other prospect or even player (eg Miller) that they don't know about and decide to run down and be "happy to be wrong" or continue to find anything to bash the player to "not be wrong". 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BavarianCanuck Posted December 31, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 31, 2019 (edited) Hello Canucks Fans Sorry for my bad english but i come from germany and this is my first post here. I'm a fan of the Canucks since 2010. Back to topic Podkolzin is a beauty. His passing and motor ist great. What a great player we have in our system!

Dungass Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 (edited) Podz looks very solid today. 1A, easily could have had a second if his teammate was a better finisher. He looks big, strong, controls the puck well (a couple controlled o-zone entries) with decent hands. There have been A LOT of mediocre players that have tore through this tournament (and a lot of great ones too, granted), so I'm not really that bothered by his average box scores. More importantly, he looks like he has the tools and mechanics to be a good player down the road for us. Above average prospect, even if it's not a home run. I think with the previous two drafts of Petey and Hughes, we might have gotten a bit spoiled. Edited December 31, 2019 by Dungass 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seider looks like a stud, Germany has quietly produced some pretty decent NHL d-men. BTW, Bavaria is awesome, I remember I went to a club game in Inglostadt (I think) once upon a time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pavel the Bure Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Podkolzin nice player, but I wish we drafted Pavel Dorofeyev , He was drafted in 3rd round #79 by Vegas, I think he is a real deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
