  1. Some interesting stuff in this article. Podkolzin was apparently ranked around 8-9 by our scouts.
  2. Benning definitely didn't seem nearly as excited as he was last year after getting Quin. Might've been disappointed with missing out and Seider and then almost getting Zegras.
  3. Can someone explain to me why bounced around between a couple leagues in Russia last season? Is the MHL and VHL like the AHL and ECHL of Russia?
  4. Really doubt Olli be in the starting lineup since it sounds like Benning is making a push to sign at least 1 another defenceman. Could see him getting a call up later in the season with injuries. Woo is still 1-2 years from the NHL.
  5. Jesus.. this contract alone should be enough to get a GM fired.
  6. I'm sure he'll be back and this is just part of a negotiation tactic. He was pretty damn clear about not wanting to leave Vancouver.
  7. I actually think these jerseys are gorgeous. Fite me
  8. Small sample but so far Kakko with 5gp 6g 7pt and Hughes with 5gp 0g 1pt Obviously, USA has a MUCH deeper lineup so Hughes probably isn't getting that much ice time.
  9. He's a disappointment for a 6th overall pick and I don't see him ever becoming a true top six guy but trading him for a 3rd rounder is just stupid.He's still a great player to have on the third line.
  10. Oh no! The Flames are going to use their connections with the Hitmen to slow down Woo's development like they did with Virtanen. /sarcasm
  11. Hoping for a miracle and that Turcotte or Zegras will drop to us but realistically we'll probably get Soderstrom or Caufield
  12. I'm probably reading too much into it but Aquaman's letter kind of suggests that they're almost ready to give Bo the C. "Bo Horvat maturing into a skilled, durable leader who can play with anybody, against anybody, in any situation."
  13. His value couldn't be any lower than right now so I feel like we should showcase him a bit until the next TDL (if his body doesn't break in half) and trade him for something of value.
  14. If JB figured out a way to get us something for Gudbranson, I trust that he'll find a way to trade Sutter too.
  15. I'd give a bit of credit to our scouts for selecting 5 NHL caliber players out of that draft if we include Forsling to your list there. Just sucks that had some misses in the 1st round, terrible trades, and a certain Russian ditching us.
  16. Guess Bob already talked to the boys about making sure to lose for the rest of the season to go for another lottery win. They've been dropping off in the standings and look poised to finish even lower. Connor should stop wasting his prime there and get out asap.
  17. Only Second? bust I know for a fact that this joke will fly over a couple heads so FYI: it's a joke
  18. Oh damn.. Doesn't look as impressive then I guess. I just started at 12 because I was originally trying to look up the year that all those bust dmen like Pouliot, Koekkoek, Reinhart were drafted.
  19. Just looking back at drafts since 2012 and noticed that every single NCAA defenceman drafted in the top 15 has gone on to become a pretty good NHLer. Trouba, Hanifin, Werenski, McAvoy.
  20. He is a little overpaid but I'd much rather get rid of Brandon "more injury prone that Salo" Sutter. We need at least one vet center defensive specialist in our bottom 6 but we shouldn't be paying that much to have 2. edit: just saw that poster above me already said the same thing
  21. Hate it when my butt types out a message and even ends it with a period
