hammertime Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 I believe the KHL season ends fairly early would Podkolzin be eligible to come to NA aftarward? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwijibo Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 11 hours ago, Alflives said: He is actually more like Matthew Tkatchuk. Of the forwards in this draft not named Hughes, this is the player I was hoping for. He’s the perfect winger for Petey and Boeser. I am Certain that I saw you say on an older thread that you didn’t want him and he doesn’t have any high end skill. Seems like you’ve revised your stance significantly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still some gooders out there even if kaliyev gets picked. I for one would't mind trex aka albin grewe for our second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't think this season. He won't be under contract with the canucks until his khl contract is terminated or expired. That being said, if the khl season ends early in year 2, the canucks could quickly sign him andget him over similar to what we do with college players. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that also apply to the AHL could he join Utica for their playoffs was more where I was heading with that question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are saying Tryamkin could join Vancouver in March. So if we run with that theory he could potentially join the canucks for a late season playoff push / run in the 20-21 season.

Podz is playing for arguably the best team in the KHL. The Gagarin Cup finals end around mid April. If we make the playoffs, he should be able to make it around then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he could play in the AHL without restriction (same contract rules as nhl). However that may spook him a but like tryamkin. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JM_ Posted June 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 22, 2019 I didn't realize he's still only 17! two years playing in a mens league and get him here at 19 on his ELC seems ideal to me from a development pov. Another nutty draft, but we ended up with more skill than the lotto balls dictated, again. 1 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sugar baby watermelon Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 The lion will hunt you down!!! Was surprised when the Canucks announced Pod, was thinking Caufield or Boldy but damn if he isn't another hit out the park!! Welcome to the Canucks Vasili, cannot wait to see what kind of damage you can do over in the KHL and soon enough over here with Bo or Petey!!

MJDDawg Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 The only highlights I’ve seen of him so far show him basically putting his head down and bull-rushing the defence to get to the net. Didn’t look at anyone around him. Which is great, but like Virtanen has discovered, he’s not going to be able to do that against NHL defencemen on a regular basis. Looking forward to seeing him develop, but I’d be lying if I said I haven’t already thought about his head space after the first stretch of games where his ice time has been reduced or he’s parked in the press box. I can already see the headlines from the local sports hacks about the rumblings of him wanting to go back home. I’m looking forward to following his development this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB stated twice in a short interview last night (after round one) that Podkolzin will step right in to the Canuck’s lineup when he’s finished in the KHL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
