  1. One of the better rumours to find air. He does not have to luve in van over summer an during winter Hockey travel will consume him an any available free time . i could see him on our west coast. Playing with our core of young emerging stars.He probably would also help sell out arena an bring back more excitement to Van.he will sell tickets
  2. Canucks finish 29 th Horvat cracks 70 points EP rookie of the year we finish year winning 7 of 8 last eight games almost slide out of29 th spot up. we slide 3 pick in draft again losing odds board stats.
  3. Right on the money with observations.++ The Team really really needs to be biased as BPA in D man . This is a need 4 or 5 years from now . ( the current roster is blah too an needs dramatic upgrades”) the team only has OJ projected to on of these pieces. We need more . I would draft earlier not later to fill the void an try get supplement. Picks in first round . JB next milestone would be to achieve 2 picks in first round. This would seem to be the year as there are a bunch of blue chip D men who will not slip to the third round .(this is the big trade off “no pain no gain”)
  4. I like your thinking on this prospective line. i hope Jonah gets real focused on improving his skating this summer off season. Hopefully he will find a skating coach who can dial him in.If not he easily starts in Utica this fall start of season . Two areas I like an hope he improves is his skating with an without the puck mainly speed upgrades right now. 2#his skill getting shot off quickly an accurately A quick release not unlike Brock would go along way to ensuring he make next big step up to NHL . i am excited about his prospects to be successful in Vancouver as a fan.
  5. Yes Elias set up goal but waved off quickly goalie on an outside goal line an defender pushed Vaxxjo forward into goal tender ,play pushed in embellishing by goalie
  6. Other lines shooting from 1/4 mile away easy saves for Finland goalie. A few guys puck hogging trying to play hero tsn play by play really pro Finland
  7. Pettersson playing like a mvp both ends team player Vaxjo coach rolling 4 lines so far has yet to shorten line up .
  8. 1-0 no they Vaxjo Lakers down jyp goalie has been good an lucky so far Elias is playing outstanding both ends a sick player for sure
  9. His reach defending on D reminds me of trymakin . he prevented good shot on net an deters play . i believe he could make team next year an do okay he has dominated as playmaker on power play very very slick skill.
  10. The development curve may be more normalized for a player comming out of Europe by adding perhaps a year or two more or less. The transition to North American ice is some times a real challenge to overcome for most players. I think Ollie will be a solid 1-2 pairing D- man . for the record I did covet Sergachev whom Montreal picked ,an then traded him away. Hopefully Olie,in 4 years is among the best in the league.
  11. Is Jonah playing 13 th man today? First shift seen of him penalty
  12. I believe Olli will legitimately compete for a spot on Canucks blue line next fall. https://www.tsn.ca/radio/vancouver-1040-i-1410/malloy-not-a-reach-to-take-juolevi-or-sergachev-in-4th-or-5th-spot-1.478320 there fixed
  13. impressive playing fourth line unselfish team game player.
  14. Should just call it injury tank ?Seeing as this would seem more appropriate an legitimate.
  15. Too bad he did not go to Utica instead of staying over there.He may have received more NHL development with the Comets. I have a feeling he will have a tough time making next step without that year or two down on the farm in NA developing to the degree he could slot into a functional NHL player. Not sure why JB did not sign him ? If not why was he drafted by JB . It would seem his next steps where to go to Comets. He also seems to be regressing or becoming stagnant over there as getting bounced back an forth to KHL farm team an ice time seems to be limited an curtailed?
  16. I hope so Team Canada is so political . It would be nice to see all three anchor Team Canada
  17. Gadjovich has a pretty high level compete power forward game he has speed tough aggressiveness , smarts an skill set . When on ice there is always positive shift creating chances. I hope he continues to develop his power game. A goal tonight would be icing on the cake.
  18. I think we still need 2 more blue line players an at least one should be a legitimate 1 a pmd .(this is not including Ollie J -as not sure as of this day where he will lot in top four pairing. We also need 2 more legitimate offensive forwards .I suspect the number one center is still a grey area an very pressing need. A second top line scoring winger is also needed. ( while JB has drafted a suit of players this last draft we still need a top up here)
  19. This will be a good draft year coming up ,therefore it would seem more than likely this team makes the playoffs.I do believe even Betman is onside with that conjecture. A team missing the playoffs three years in a row is not good for business or the fans.
  20. The results of last three seasons of team finishing near bottom of barrel reflects a lot of glas half empty sentiment.At some point the glass will fill up to half full ,I am one who is rooting for Brock to fill it up this year. God knows we need a few bright spots to shed some light at the end of the tunnel and light up the goal light.He has ability An potential and is 20 . I say his chances are better than half empty but much fuller.Let him score this year build him up more and play him with linemates who complement An or are capable of scoring shelter his minutes and ease him into critical situations where he can grow out .
  21. All would be good to see him make team this year , but I hope Jim is carefully patient with his development curve .This would not be the year to usher him into the NHL. I would rather he play a year in Europe than play with current version of the Canucks.
  22. These windows for the said players is now open this An next year to be sure is time for them to rise up.I believe both players will rise to the occasion, this is potentially the start of a 18 month make or break for both . Goldy was traded so a team basically cut him loose at TDL . He knows what he has to do. As for Jake his window might be 2 years yet so don't see urgency to pull him back up this season, one more campaign in AHLto hone his game would not disappoint me. It is much more gratifying as a fan to know we have this talent pool with potential to be impact players of the future.
  23. This would be the kind of story to ignite the fan base . They would create a strong enthusiasm for casual fair weather fan to attend more games. Hopefully this could be the storyline of the season.
