  1. You have to play favourites. When every player on your team is the best player from their team, what's a guy supposed to do. I dislike the coach because he is French, but that's my own issue. Jake hit a few guys, missed the net with 2 glorious chances and did tell a swede to drop them on the face off. The way the lines avove him were playing, he has to turn heads (think Tootoo in his wjc tourney). I have no doubt Jake will be a stud for us, but this short tourney, he has to do more to be recognized.
  2. Only a little bit of Homerism. Jake played okay tonight. He was not as physical as usual and a third and fourth liner you need to bang and crash. Ritchie played the role better. Jake needs to step up.
  3. Heard he may be a scratch tomorrow. Lazar and McDavid checking in. That would suck.
  4. Wow, MDC gets cut... That's crazy. Congrats to Virtanen
  5. I don't like French people, so I don't trust the coach.
  6. If Jake gets cut, it either lights a fire or deflates him.
  7. Just wait folks... This kid is the real deal. To the guy questioning me about his ceiling, come back in a decade.
  8. If so, film any off the next 3 games live and upload it.
  9. And yet fell to 28th overall. It's not like he was a can't miss.
  10. No, it isn't, and I did watch Perry play Jr. Again, couple Jake with a Getzlaf and he goes behind Perry. Many believe Corey didn't deserve that Hart but that's another story. It's okay for you to disagree, but Perry was taken 28th overall... Seems like JB agrees with me and I hope he is right.
  11. Agreed, but couple Virtanen with Getzlaf etc and consider that Virtanen is a better skater, has a better release and shot... Well, you will see... Hopefully. I know it's a big if, but if you watched this kid perform. I still think he will play like Lindros
  12. Yes, whether he gets there is another story. His skill set is tops in his draft class on almost every level.
  13. Way more physical and to be honest, way higher ceiling.
  14. Absolutely, and you don't need to verify anything once partnered.
  15. TROLL ALERT! TROLL ALERT! TROLL ALERT!
  16. What boys? We handle it fine... Our giant SUVs plow.
  17. Again, all I can say is I am 100% sure I have watched JV play live than anyone on this board. Just wait and see, as long as he keeps his fire and determination he is can't miss. His family is solid and he plays on the edge.
  18. You're annoying... go troll somewhere else. Were you cut from a team Virtanen destroyed you on because that is what it sounds like. I have watched Jake play since 14. He may bust, but he has a toolbox full of tools that NHL scouts and GMs drool over. He could literally be the next Eric Lindros but he could also be Brad Isbister. I think he will be Jake Virtanen and closer to Lindros. He can fight as well.
