  1. I have seen MT play live a couple of times and he definitely benefits because they jammed him on a great line. He doesn't create much on his own, is not fast and in my opinion will always just be a complimentary winger which are always available. Nice pick but he is what he is. I think he will be a 30-40 point guy at best. Never a top line guy.
  2. He just had to raise a forearm to Ferland and that would be the last time he charges a Canuck!!!
  3. What are you talking about!?!?!? Look up Gaudette, Lockwood, Brisebois, Neill and even Abols for Pete's sake!
  4. Vesey was the top prospect out of the NCAA as a senior and it has translated to three NHL goals already this season. Brock is already the hottest prospect in the ncaa as a sophomore!!!! Enough said!!!
  5. Brock is only "over rated" because he is making headlines every night in the NCAA. Tough not to place high value on a guy who is knocking off Oshie, Parise and not to mention Toews records in the NCAA. Just my opinion, but come this time next year, Boeser will have climbed half way up your list.
  6. Agreed. Showed no real push tonight. I don't think he even registered a meaningful hit. Let Green give him the Gaunce treatment and make him an everyday nhler.
  7. I think this kid is going to check a huge box for the Canucks as a stud 1st line winger! No pressure Brock! Is Yost his center this year?
  8. Seeing Stecher and Caggula out there tonight makes me think that Boeser is going to be a stud!
  9. Why would his junior team give him the C? not all leaders are loud and outspoken. Naslund was a pretty unemotional guy
  10. Hamhuis was about as laid back of a player I can remember but maybe that was later in his years. I really noticed GB at the Young Guns! I thought he was our third best defensman. Played on special teams as well
  11. Green seemed to disagree saying his skating looked great. He only needs to endure about 15 mins a game so I think he will make life hell for opposing forwards for every minute he is out there. I look forward to it. Nobody seems to knock Buffs weight, they just fear him!
  12. What is our answer for Lucic?....oh, never mind
  13. I hope we play Calgary early! Remember putting coins on the tracks? That is going to be Ferland in the corner, if Ferland can crack the lineup.
  14. I think with the right wingers, Bo has a chance of one day becoming a legitimate 1st line center. Hopefully one of those future elite wingers is Boeser!
  15. Do we actually care? He played some excellent minutes in every game after that. Including pk time. He did just come over after a full season plus playoffs. I think he could very well make some third and fourth liners cry this year. Skate around Sbiza just to run into a tree!!! Can't wait
  16. Sooooo. Edler Tanev Hutton Gudbranson Sbiza Larsen Tryamkin Stecher/Subban/Pedan
  17. I have huge hopes for Tree this year. I dream about those games where the Ferlands of the league try their brand of hockey only to meet Tree on the ice and get tossed into the crowd! Or he just picks him up and breaks him in half. It's great that we now have legit call ups for our big men (Pedan) and a growing list of smaller but skilled defensman (Stecher, Subban, Larsen). We have never had it so good!
  18. Brisebois looked great in game 1 at the Young Guns tourney! Made a couple of nice hits along the boards and played great positionally. He was solid all around. Ihope he can crack the WJ lineup
  19. With Jerseys recent trade for Hall it is great to see the high price for defensman. I hope a couple of our prospects can make a push for the pro club and Benning can dangle a few for a future elite line mate for Boeser.
  20. I was enjoying the comments on the various prospects we have.

      Is that more of what you are looking for?

      Yes. That's plenty of content now.

  21. In reference to Toews number of games played. He now has beaten Toews numbers in 9 less games
  22. We have been coveting a pure scoring winger for so many years, could Boeser fulfill that role? Is it too soon to start getting excited about this future star? He has rather quietly matched Jonathon Toews NCAA rookie season in goals and is two assists shy of the forementioned Toews assist totals...oh ya and he has 10 games to go! Keep it up Brock, we have a 1st line wing ready for you!
  23. After stewing over this trade for the latter half of the day I have come to accept this trade even though I don't understand the timing of it. This could have been done in the summer if Benning was done with Hunter. Also why wouldn't you package him with one of our hopefully exiting veterans to sweeten a great return. I think this trade means that Hansen is getting traded and Granlund is our new Hansen. "Versatile two-way player" "Plays center or wing very well" "kills penalties" "Can slot in up and down he lineup" sounds a lot like Hansen.
