JB needs to kick some a$$ down in Utica. Play him or get another coach. If they wont play him they need to send him down a notch so he can play all the time.
QU has one thing all our D don't, high end mobility no other D man on our currant roster can move the puck and generate offensive opportunities like him. He could generate 40 points with out scoring one goal .
Only way he comes back to us is if we over pay 5 mil. would be ball park or he will test free agency. JB totally screwed the pooch on this should have given him 3.5 mil a year for 2 years. Money talks bull $&!#e walks.
Madden looks like a top 6 performer drives the play and has great vision . I think the US had an off game , Madden is very noticeable at both ends of the ICE in a good way.
The Canucks should work on Brassards skating all summer if it helped Bo that much it should do the same for Brassards skating as well. Then we can see what we have in Utica. FIRST WE WOULD HAVE TO GET HIM SIGNED.
Leivo may be the tonic that is needed for Pettersson and Boeser size and compete time will tell. Playing with Pettersson will definitely help his stats.
LOL and you do, have you ever watched the playoffs? Size speed and skill won the cup not a bunch of smurfs . Big mobile Defense , Big forwards that can retrieve the puck. Not a bunch of shinny smurfs that disappear in the playoffs, come on!
Like I said before have him up for a couple games see where he's at then send him back down. Give him a carrot you would be surprised how this could change him.
The same with MacEwen
