If he learns from it, yes it will. And that's exactly why Green has taken the tough-love approach with him that he has. Same goes for the approach that Cull has taken with both Lind and Gadjovich. The organization will definitely benefit from this approach with their young players in the long run, not to mention the players themselves.

Wells Gray Park - massive cave discovery

Yes, most likely home of the Sasquatch on this end. And on the other end....home of the Yeti! -
2019-20 Utica Comets Thread
Captain Canuck #12 replied to GoldenAlien's topic in Prospects / Farm Team
This is a big part of why, along with the short road trips and increased practice time that the team gets by being in Utica, I would rather have them stay there than be moved somewhere out west. -
I have a real hard time imagining Stecher still being around next year. Too many promising, younger and lower-priced D waiting to take his spot.
-
I agree with everything you say, except that I think Madden would be too high a price to pay. You just need to swap another one of our forward prospects into that package. Maybe try Lockwood instead.
-
The second part of that headline sounds good, although I'm pretty sure I recall one of the Johns mentioning on last night's broadcast that Reaves has close to 200 hits already. And he doesn't skate nearly as fast as Jake.
-
I think you mean Billy "The Axe" Smith
-
Yes, unfortunately, it has to be mutually agreed.
-
As much as I like Motte, I didn't really notice him out there tonight. Not like Roussel in his return. But Roussel and the whole team looked overwhelmed tonight, so not an easy game for Motte to return in!

Aidan McDonough | #25 | LW
Captain Canuck #12 replied to GoldenAlien's topic in Prospects / Farm Team
I'd agree with that. We know that Madden was good without McDonough. We don't know how good McDonough would be without Madden. Time will tell. -
Shame on you for not playing by the rules!!
-
And is there anybody who still hasn't guessed what his mystery "illness" in the preseason really was?
-
a...., a..... what?? Don't leave us hanging here, Slegr! P.S. I'd suggest you stay out of your dad's stash!
-
Haha! Did anyone else hear Brian Burke's between periods take on the Baertschi trade discussions? Something to the effect of: "The Canucks won't need to add another phone line to handle the calls." So sarcastic, but unfortunately, so true.
-
Exactly, anyone could have had him for free if they actually wanted him. More likely it's us having to give something up to get rid of him. That's why I don't see Benning being nearly as motivated as Baer and his agent to make this trade.
-
Hopefully this is not going to be Ferland's fate as well.
-
Sounds like what you're saying is that one thing we can look really forward to with this kid is his ability to jump out of the way of hits! p.s. I know it's not really what you're sayin'
-
Like Hermann, not Rudolf, I trust sir?
-
Yeah, he needs to be given the Baertschi treatment plan. Baertschi's level of play aside, the extended break seemed to work pretty well for him.
-
Something tells me that he's better prepared to play pro hockey this year and maybe, just maybe, it wasn't all Cull keeping him from playing to his potential last year.
-
Are both Edler and Stetcher out? Is going to actually get to play?
-
So you mean he quit KeppenWolf and returned to score his 10th goal now??
-
Oh, and Karel Plasek (sp.?) with the Czech team too.
-
Utunen with Finland, Hoglander with Sweden and Podkolzin with Russia, I believe. Haven't heard yet if any of our prospects made the American team.
-
I agree. Not wise to put a limit on his potential before he's had a chance to come back and develop into his prime. As you say, depending on how things go for him and who he's paired with, he has the raw skills to go a long way!
