  1. I have to admit that when I heard about this it really deflated me and I lost interest in the nucks for the remainder of the season.  I hope its not true for Jake's sake but I have no time for someone who would hurt a woman or a child sexually.  I would be happy to have Rape and Child Abuse punishable by execution.

  2. I think Jett was the biggest surprise this year in Utica for me.  His first pro season went far better than I thought it would.  He is not as far away from being able to play with the big club.  Inspector Gadjet would be my next biggest surprise player. B)

    A fine was more appropriate.  Really like Big Mac’s game the last while though.  He’s playing big, and with nastiness.  

    Hey Alf, first time I have seen you in quite awhile.  Good to have you back around. B)

    I agree, I also believe its rigged... Would be easier to believe, if there weren't so many odd decisions within the NHL... 

    I was playing the draft simulation and it has us picking at #7 at this point.  Maybe it is our year to get the #1 pick this off-season.  I would love too be able to take Luke Hughes.B)

    I actually like Hamonic.  But there is a reality to the fact that to get the best out of Quinn Hughes we need to pair him with a legitimate number 2 stud defenseman.

     

    Then he can thrive.

     

    Look at how Reilly improved this year in Toronto when paired with TJ Brodie.

     

    Hamonic is a good 3rd pairing D but we are missing the real deal to pair with Hughes and help him become the player he is destined to be.

     

    Biggest need for the team is that number two stud D to pair with Hughes to create us a real top pair.

     

    Looking forward to it happening! Man that is going to be huge when it happens. We are going to take a huge step forward at that point.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Next season is probably too soon but I think Jett Woo could be the ideal guy to play along side Quinn.  Jett has looked good in Utica this year.

  7. I have to admit that I am not a big fan of Jayce.  I think Will Lockwood is a better option.  He has looked real good in Utica this season.  I haven't been Will's biggest supporter but having seen him play in Utica has totally changed my opinion of him. B)

  8. I am kinda' hoping Mikey might get a game in the next few before he is reassigned to the Taxi Squad.  It would be good to see him play as if Holtby was taken in the ED I think Mikey has a shot at being the back-up next season.  B)

    what is it you see in Hawryluk?

    he has played 1/3 the games of Jake and Rooster

    playing at a 6points per 30 game pace

    while Jake and Roosty are 4/30 pace

    Rooster is more physical and kills penalties and LEADS THE TEAM IN +/-

    Hawryluk seems to lose the puck at about the same rate Jake does

    Way more lately.  Jake hasn't been that bad defensively lately. B)

    Do you watch many comets games? Can you give me an honest opinion about woo and his development this far?

    I just finished watching tonight's game and Woo is paired with Rathbone.  They are the Comets best pairing and Woo got his first goal of the season.  I believe he is +6 or +7 this year and has looked real good.  I thought he may struggle with his foot speed but he looks quick on his feet.  I think the Rathbone Woo pairing is good enough right now to be the Canucks 3rd pair.  They both have looked good so far in their first Pro Seasons.

  11. Jonah had a great game last night.  Many had him written off but I see him as a great LW prospect who will play NHL games.  fun game to watch.  I think Rathbone is better than OJ right now.  He is an amazing skater and he and Woo are making a great defensive pairing.     B)

  12. Jake has had a rough start to the season but the last 15 games his confidence has improved and His defensive game has also improved as well.  he doesn't look lost in the D-zone anymore.  His physical  game has also improve (Third in hits).  He is finely having consistency in his game as well.  The hyper focus on Draft position is not realistic.  The draft will always be a bit of a gamble trying to determine what an 18 year old teenager is going to be when he is 25 or 26.  No one gets it right all the time but JB seems to have been right more than he was wrong when it comes to the draft. B)
