  1. https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/467334748851810304/VJsw1MaU.jpeg Shaw Channel 4 for all the JV fans who want to see.
  2. Very creative, the fact you keep responding to me means I have a bigger impact on your life than you want me to. What does society think of you?
  3. Agreed, or have his team miss the playoffs or get ousted very, very early.
  4. Awww, goosepimples has a little protector... How cute. I do take my own advice, everyday. I am happy to sell you some if you like. Retainer of $5000 and $550 an hour. Call my secretary.
  5. My Canuck buddies who have relocated to Calgary are season ticket holders their. They have been to 80% of the home games. That echo your statements and also mentioned that he is being shuffled lines every game almost as well. Hard to gel that way. They love his physical play saying it is more intense than anyone they have seen in a Canucks uni that they can remember. These are nearly 2 decade Canuck season ticket holder's and now transplanted to AB. Their word is something I hang a lot of weight on with regards to hockey. They say if he can stay healthy and out of the box, he will dominate. I asked about Kass and Virtanen in a heads up battle, my one buddy said "Kass wishes he was as talented as Virtanen and the physical is multiple times more effective than Kass"
  6. Okay, we get it, you don't like Virtanen. Maybe go post in one of the prospects that you do like (obviously means going to another teams board.) Kid hasnt played a game yet and you are writing him off. I bet I can find posts where you harped on Horvat as well. We get get your gig. Its old, move along...
  7. A hahahahaha, says the guy who hasnt seen a hitman game all year. Jake is doing just fine. He is elite at 3 areas of his development already, shooting, skating and hitting/checking. Elite to where he would be the fastest skater on the Canucks, likely the most physical and probably only slightly be Vrbata in terms of sniping. His defense needs work and he has spent a lot of time working on that. His role will be increased in the playoffs.
  8. Gordie Howe Hat Trick or Busto
  9. That hit against the Seattle Dman is awesome...
  10. Or he is focusing on a different facet of his game...
  11. JV usage is in question, which is a coaching concern. Good team and organization.
  12. I'd rather he gets a little turmoil now than having to experience for the first time at the pro level. Guys like Daigle were pampered etc and come out flat.
  13. It's only getting better. Wait until you see him at full speed.
  14. I am sure the Canucks are aware, but that is pretty impressive.
  15. It's a thing to behold. Skates like Gartner, hits like Stevens, shoots like LeClair. He is still a boy and has 2 years of growing. The biggest detriment may be his temper. He has that Finnish temper like Ruutu had. May take some retaliatory penalties.
  16. If he isn't playing wing in the NHL...
  17. Are they trying to get others going and hurting Jakes production?
  18. And you are? First off, it's 'you're' and 'their'. So now that we know your education level, let's go ahead and talk about uneducated facts... which by the way makes ABSOLUTELY no sense... I discussed as a season ticket holder for decades seeing Pavel first hand, for years. I secondly stated that I watched Jake train, skate, play etc... live and even pointed out where. Now, if that is uneducated, trolling etc... then so be it. As for beating it... I just beat you...
  19. Where Virtanen will excel, straight line at you and then through you.
  20. Honestly, it is not close. Pavel was probably top 30 at his best in the NHL for speed. JV comes into the NHL in the top 5 and could be the fastest. Remember, he was the fastest forwards and backwards. I watched him train. The things he was doing will transcend the future skaters. There are a group of guys in Abbotsford that are phenomenal.
  21. Well, you've seen 50% of them both live. Considering Jake is the fastest skater you have ever seen, pretty hard for you to say Bure is faster. Jake is faster, Pavel got to top speed faster but Jakes top speed is higher.
