    It's ok guys. Lek's a home run were lucky. Next Bossy. Lekkerimaki to the moon! It's ignorant for me to come to this thread and talk about tempering expectations. Of course that must mean I hate him. Bad canuck fan bad. 

    C'mon!  If you're going to come on here and say that there's any reason to believe that any Canuck's prospects has anything less than glowing future potential, that can only mean one thing: that you are a "HATER"!  There couldn't possibly be any other way to look at the situation..........could there??:huh:

    I think either option would be good for him, though I think he might be on a more successful team in Abby next season.  He wouldn't need to be counted on, so they could afford to bring him in slowly, like they did with Klim.  I really hope they take the Klim route more often with Euros

    Yes....let's get all his apples in the A!

    A quote from 2021 ”According to TSN's Darren Dreger, Kravtsov is willing to play in the AHL for another NHL club, but simply wants to move on from the Rangers organization. 

    Too bad they couldn't have gotten him down to Abbotsford for their current playoff run.  That would have been such a great situation for all involved.

    As much as this guy isn't my favourite, some valid points here regarding buyouts/OEL:

     

    https://www.vancouverisawesome.com/canucks-hockey/canucks-gm-allvin-my-intention-is-not-to-use-buyouts-6868106

    I didn't like that last paragraph of that article, but, sadly, have to believe it's true: "On the other hand, Ekman-Larsson will be turning 32 and was on the decline for years before coming to Vancouver. It is more likely that Ekman-Larsson continues that decline than that he experiences a renaissance."

    Not anyone I can think of compares to Daigle and his 12 million contract… in the early 90’s!! Number 1 pick that everyone expected to be the next star. I doubt anyone thought Boeser would be a big star player 

    Homer Laugh GIFs | Tenor............................ Oh wait....I thought he'd be a big star!!:unsure:

    He just complimented Klimovich as an afterthought.  After mentioning 4-5 of the other young forwards.  A little suprised by that, consdiering how much attention he has recently been getting for his scoring.  I wonder if this managment team isn't sold on his potential to play the 2-way game he'd need to play in the NHL?

    if you look at UFAs, there are actually a lot of options out there - Rodrigues, Compher, Bluegger, Barbashev, Ellers, plus some RFAs - ross

     

    Tocchet just confirmed they need a 3C...but reiterated same as Alvin but sounds like he feels they need to add externally but name checked Aman - but only for face offs 

    Acciari and Hayden are another two UFA C's that might fit what they're looking for better.

    Hoping oel has a strong off-season and comes in tip top shape . Him and hronek could be a deadly pairing. I knew something was off with him.  You don't just drop off a cliff being that talented of a hockey player. He's scored 20 goals in this league. I think  we see a way better oel next year

    But were OEL's struggles due to a bad foot or bad decision-making?  I am hoping it was just the former, but I thought I was starting to see more of the latter.  I would be interested to hear what others thought.
