  1. Yeah. I get that. But most prospects feel like they could be given more opportunities. There has to be an understanding and a level of trust between organization and player and apparently that fell apart with the Canucks and Dahlèn. Too bad too cause I liked Dahlèn. If he succeeds in SJ. Wouldn't be surprised if he haunted this franchise for decades.
  2. Yeah. I'd have an issue with that then. Don't expect your young players to flourish if you're playing them ahead of veterans and career AHL players. If I was a young player. I'm not sure if I'd wanna stick around either if I felt like management wasn't in favor of developing me properly.
  3. Perhaps. But the AHL isn't necessarily about winning. I think it's about winning with your young guns. Dahlèn should've been a big part of that. But apparently wasn't according to the regime in Utica. I wouldn't be surprised if Dahlèn flourished with SJ.
  4. Captain Hor just doesn't sound......right. How about Captain Bo, instead of Hor. LOL
  5. If Gretzky can be traded..... get lost kiddo.
  6. nobody is untouchable, not even EP40, BB6, or BH53. they're all tradeable, just a matter of the "right" offer being made. with that being said, Virtanen is a valuable piece to the team. He may not be a player of EP40's calibre, or even BH53's calibre, but he's a solid contributer on the team already, at 22. I see Virtanen continuing to improve, and becoming a 40-45 point player, who's physical and difficult to play against.
  7. Wouldn’t look good on the league if EP40 was winning rookie of the year every single month. 12 points in 14 games without one of the better snipers on the team, in Boeser. Unbelievable. Just under a point a game. What’s he going to do with more talent on his line. OMG.
  8. Good. About time we have a Bruin killer.
  9. Maybe this is the reason for his poor play? Playing too much above what he’s supposed to? More minutes than he’s able to take usually leads to being more tired. And being more tired does usually mean more mistakes. And he’s been making a lot of them, no?
  10. Sorry. Haven’t really been able to see the games recently. Has Motte not been playing well on the road trip? The team as a whole hasn’t been doing well. Think they’re pretty tired. Has Motte not been playing well? I thought he’s been very good on the pk for the team.
  11. I’m not convinced about Juolevi taking Pouliot’s place after Christmas. From reports of Juolevi’s play down in AHL. He’s been producing well offensively. But it’s his defensive play that still needs work. Bringing him up when his defensive positioning and play isn’t good is only going to cause confidence issues when the NHL will Absolutely expose him. In my opinion. Let him spend the year with a few call ups here and there throughout the year to give him a taste of the pace of the NHL.
  12. Haven’t really been a fan of Pouliot. And honestly haven’t seen him play much this season. But he’s still fairly young defenseman right? 24? That’s still young for a defenseman in the NHL. And like Bärtschi. He really didn’t get his full season until quite older. So maybe he just needs some time. Hutton turned it around and he’s doing really great this season. Maybe Pouliot can do the same?
  13. whoever asked that question originally to EP, should be ashamed that they asked a stupid question. So embarrassing.
  14. I could see Pettersson inflating Eriksson’s value a little bit. He’s playing better to start the season than he has the last two years. What does that say about EP40?
  15. Yeah. Just came across that. Thanks man.
  16. Depends on how the rest of the league views him right? If Tanev isn’t in the eyes of other GM’s worth a first round pick. Then they won’t give that up. Maybe two seconds? Would you deal Tanev for that?
  17. Wouldn’t a contender maybe take him on for depth for the postseason, maybe? Guess maybe the challenging thing would be his cap hit.
  18. Think that Eriksson is going to be bought out before his contract runs out? Dahlèn I also see eventually taking his spot on EP40’s line.
  19. Rooting for Woo to make it onto the Canucks one day soon. He’s gonna have such tremendous support from the Chinese community in this city.
