  1. You best get busy Vintage you have 8 more to make!!! I would very much enjoy watching this team in the post season, please and thank you
  2. I came in here looking for this^ If you had not posted it I was going to!
  3. I think he will get compared to Zegras for a lot of his career at least in Vancouver as I believe Zegras was the player Benning wanted. I personally dont think points are everything in a player. Zegras is flash and has put up a good number of points already in his career, but Podkolzin is just such an all round player. He is strong ( and going to get much stronger) on the puck, he wins battles, hits and is in the mould of a perfect playoff player. When the whistles get put away and the contact increases Podkolzin will be a player that thrives in that situation. Zegras is really quite poor in his defensive duties and that is not a good long term projection (perfect fit on a Leafs team). At the draft I was hoping for Zegras...now ive had time to watch them more I am absolutely stoked with Podkolzin. He has become the player I like to watch the most. I am so excited to see his growth as a player and buzzing to follow his career. I hope he gets a lot of opportunity to excel in the playoffs. The Canucks got a win in the first round of this draft!!!!
  4. Yes there is something like 6 or 7 forwards missing from the Abby lineup through injury so there is very little help available down there. Its amazing how well they are going with such a depleted forward group! Here's hoping Pearson is back next game. Anyone know the status on Highmore?
  5. Now i am not very smart so someone needs to explain to me in simple terms....how is Petan an NHL player?
  6. I think we need to get third in the division to get in. My thoughts are the other two wild card spots will get filled by the other division
  7. Can you please keep making them for the rest of the season. I would like to watch some playoff hockey. I miss it!
  8. I know it was only Arizona but Lockwood is an NHLer. Ive seen enough in the last two games to say he should be cost effective bottom six player who wont lose you games!!!
  9. I said this in another thread. Podkolzin is built for playoff hockey. He will be a beast. I am so very excited about his game and think he is improving game after game. You win games with players like that on your team.
  10. With the Pearson injury...far too much Petan for my liking. Surely there is a better option down in Abby?
  11. I know it was the EP show but I honestly thought it was Podkolzins best game as a Canuck yet. He was a beast, continuously threatening the opposing players, winning battles and unlucky not to get a few points. I am wildly excited about his future. May not have the flash of some of his young peers but I really see Podkolzin being built for the playoffs. I think he will thrive in those games. The Canucks have a real good one in this young man!
  12. If my records re correct we have 8 people on 1 @smithers joe @Ilunga @D.B Cooper @4petesake @Cerridwen @gurn @Bure_of_94 and Canuckpuckluck1 With @Elias Pettersson out in front on 3. Lets hope it stays that way for some time!
  13. A few questions for those that have seen enough of his game Can Aidan skate better than Boeser? Can Aidan shoot better than Boeser? Is Aidan stronger than Boeser? Does Aidan hit better than Boeser? My reason for asking is there is some much angst and conjecture about Brock at the moment and if this kid isnt as good or doesnt have the motivation/drive/potential to be as good or better than Brock, is he a fit on the team? Sure he is a prospect that needs a lot of seasoning, but some on this board are getting bent out of shape on a prospect that may not even move the needle. Yes we need talent and no we cant afford to lose them for nothing but is this more of the Frankie Corrado freak out?
  14. A quick look at Capfriendly and the team is missing Justin Bailey , Phil De Guissepe, Justin Dowling, Noah Juulsen and then Petan and Podkolzin I think got papered down. As @Kootenay Gold has mentioned there may be restrictions on number of vets allowed. But thats an awful lot of AHL quality strike power to be added if healthy.
  15. If only a Hockey games was 2 periods...the Canucks would be on fire this year. Just play the last two periods and call it a day
  16. I don't think I could be any angrier than I am right now. That last 10 minutes was just a disaster. I am so frustrated watching this team currently.
  17. Wow Seney just laid down like a child. Realised pretty quick he wanted nothing to do with that!
  18. I seriously think Podkolzin will be this kind of player very shortly
  19. The rink looked a lot like the one we played in as kids...in Sydney Australia.
  20. Ive been viewing this for a few weeks as the only logical option for the Canucks, they need to be third in the division to get in. Just chase down Vegas and then Oilers. Its very doable as we can gain 6 points on the Knights in the next handful of games if we beat them.
  21. Bald thing that skated leisurely circles between the blue lines at center ice - 60 points - surpassed. Ba ha ha Very funny
  22. I just finished watching the game, 3 stars the post, 2 stars Demko, 1 star Petey. What a fabulous performance. The hockey gods smiling on the team today. Full Canuck Puck Luck!!!!! I thought Podkilzin was sensational. So strong and just a beast hounding the puck. Great team performance. I tell you if this team makes the playoffs there are some scared teams over there.
