  1. SO counts btw...well thats what announcer said
  2. ah weird college hockey schedule. i thought this was end of year game due to them playing for a cup he can be signed and sent to utica after that tho, hopefully that is Bennings plan
  3. Demko 9so of the year, breaks Schneiders Boston College record. Now is his season done? can he be signed and join Utica now?
  4. its the BU goalie haha, So annoying !
  5. ya must be the feed or something, was hoping it would go away...they must not know about it, or are trying to fix it glad its just not on the tv here...
  6. you would hope thats the case, as long as he is not taking bad penalties and is playing on the right side of the edge on not doing blind side hits, let him play the way that made him a top pick. His speed is great, hopefully he gains more confidence to shoot more and it gets accurate, still would like to see him slot on with the twins for a stretch of games, most likely wont happen this year, but maybe to start next year off? that or with bo
  7. I think this is the case, or that he is worried about taking penalties as he is already in and out of the lineup as is. a bad penalty or two leading to a gwg could spell him multiple games in the press box. Liked his speed last night tho! Also, so waiting and hoping Vrbata gets moved soon, maybe sparks the trade deals and we give Jake a shot with baer and bo for a few games. Trade vrbata before someone else deals a winger and sets the bar for a return, also he isnt scoring so his value isnt high anyways salvage a 2nd and or a prospect and be done with it imo. was great last year has been a ghost since his removal from sedinery Youth is served, jake has the nhl body to play everyday, we are eating up a year of his ufa etc so lets see him every night for the rest of the year!
  8. ya and if its a 2way signing could he start in utica without waivers to start year? be a depth add, as Pedan is with the big club in some capacity next fall unless we trade him or risk the waiver wire
  9. Well since you insist being sarcastic I looked it up, he is an rfa at season end playing for floridas ahl team. But I wonder if he will get tendered a contract or not, he signed with florida in the summer so he wasnt tendered a contract from dallas at all then
  10. went from texas stars to portland, dallas was texas nhl team, not sure who portland belongs too or how long his deal is for.
  11. any particular reason why Gaunce was playing C over Z? I thought the Canucks preferred Gaunce as a LW? Time to get his brother signed to a 2way deal in the summer? or get Benn's brother and try and hope to hell he wants to sign here as a ufa
  12. never clued in to the 6.06, i just presumed it was 6'6'' as why the heck would the measure 6' .6'' haha, maybe I am way off then...
  13. I go off of hockeydb, and their he is listed as 6'6'' tall
  14. not sure on skating, small? 6'6 tall but yes slimmer at 210, with those numbers I would think his skating wouldnt be horrible I guess there is no deadline in getting a deal with tryamkin out of his contract is their, I wonder how his english is, atleast pedan should speak russian to help him out down in Utica
  15. Oilers nabbed themselves a russian chara also in 2015 at the draft in the 7th round ziyat paigin. Putting up good offensive numbers too! http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=176007
  16. 32yr old prospect eh. Defintely think this thread is not needed and should be removed. He isnt a prospect he is a veteran nhl forward who was waived to clear room for a prospect
  17. has their been any update on his injury? Linden mention 4-6 weeks, but from the sounds of the type of injury it could easily take longer, especially to full recover. Also, when does his season end compared to Utica? Could we bring him over for Utica playoffs if he is healthy or does he need to be signed first?
  18. I think the hope is we can find magic in a bottle like Chicago did with Panarin, obvioulsy he is playing with an elite player so his points are insane. Soderberg was a nice fit since he came over. If we can gain a player to help our club thats the hope. He isn't a past nhl'er who has gone to europe and done well like the players you mentioned, who when here couldn't earn a job. The hope is that if he came over that he could become a serviceable nhl player and help our team. Some who come over make that happen, others go back quite quickly, don't know if you don't try
  19. ya 2 of those guys came here around 27ish panarin is a few years younger. I guess Medvedev is over 30 and this is his first year i think? Hope for a speedy recovery with no real affects to his game.
  20. only recent guy I can think coming over for the first time and being somewhat successful is Lehtera in St.Louis
  21. When Linden was on the radio he had said something like 4-6 weeks, and possible he may return for playoffs? Has that changed in the last hr or so, or maybe he didnt get the latest update?> Too bad they were going their soon to scout him too apparently, still sound like Canucks have interest in him and he has interest in the NHL, could still come over for next year, hopefully rehab goes well and he is 100%
  22. such unfortunate news, especially to happen during practice. He was having another good year over their, and I was hoping the Canucks were going to give him a 1yr deal to try make and be a contributor to the big club. These injuries can take a while to heal from I do believe, Bieksa had an injury like this.
  23. Ya this year and next makes perfect sense. Green will likely be gone from Utica by then, but maybe Baumgartner will the the next Utica head coach? Looking forward to boeser at next years WJ's he should have a more prominent role, and I doubt they bring back Ron Wilson as coach
  24. Would there be any chance Boeser decides to go pro and not play out 4 full years in College? Maybe 1 more year then go to Utica?
  25. send him down, take the pressure off, let him try to find his offensive game in the whl for this year. Hope they go on a run and he is a key contributor in the PLayoffs. Next year send him to Green if he is still their in Utica. No matter how his camp is he needs time, and seasoning. atleast 1 full year in Utica. Shinkaruk had a great pre season a couple years ago and probly earned a 9 game stint and he has spent the past year plus honing his D game and now scoring in the AHL and it has helped his developement. Lets do the same to Jake. Call up Shinkaruk also imo, slot him in baertschi spot
