  1. The game was fantastic. Still won't be as good as listening to pats fans today.
  2. So you'd be happy with a 5th from let's say the oilers if he signed with them?
  3. Yeah not a similar style at all. Ellis had a fantastic playoff though. But 1 playoff doesn't dictate an entire career. Ville leino had a good playoff one year. So did halak.
  4. I think Ellis was an amazing JR player. I got to see him weekly as I was a spitfire ticket holder at the time he was awarded chl player of the year. His size prevented him from playing his game in the nhl. I thought Ellis could be vintage Mike green. He's turned out to be a 3-4 on a very good team with a good shot to be a lower end Pp defenseman.
  5. Forget it man. Neither of us are going to change his mind. Apparently 27 pts as a rookie D in 49 games isn't that much better than an 7th dman in the finish elite. Smh. Get real man this is getting pathetic.
  6. I just don't really think when you get the 5th overall you have your eyes set on an Ellis type player. Especially when you consider 4 of the next 5 D taken in the first round are projecting to be way better now. Hindsight is 20/20 and benning has crushed some drafting since coming here but OJin my.mind has been nothing more than disappointing. I'm not going to sit here like the user formally known as JR and sugar coat it and say that it's fine that he isn't doing well because it's not.
  7. BUT THIS IS A GOOD THING RIGHT?
  8. And look how is son jaden turned out lol
  9. If benning also thought this we shouldn't have selected him.
  10. I know I'm enjoying it lol
  11. Magical doesn't equal imaginary
  12. Like same grapevine as rob zepps sources? Maybe he was miserable to the grapevine because he had the flu... Jokes aside I've heard the complete opposite to what had heard about gaunce.
  13. I like the way you're thinking but I wouldn't want to throw him in with a rookie and a player who only plays some nights. I would pair him with Sutter to start.
  14. Neither do your fake sources flu boy
  15. To be honest I don't follow other prospects as close as our own. I have expectations for each of our prospects. Those expectations have nothing to do with any player not in the Nhl .
  16. My expectations is for him not to be a healthy scratch...
  17. I thought he was bad. I don't care what some lame tweet says. Besides, what's so glorious about being top 3 player on a team that finished what? 5th? Carry on.
  18. Man it's so great OJ is a healthy scratch. Couldn't be happier. It's obvious that his play is trending upwards and this could only be viewed as a positive. He's done nothing but exceed all expectations since being drafted just like boeser and pettersson. Just going to sit back and let the upvotes roll in here. That's what it's all about right?
  19. Sure man. Whatever you say. Spewing garbage. Pettersson destroying the shl-good news Lind amazing in the whl-good news Boeser all-star mvp-good news Juolevi benched in the Finnish league- good news Goldobin sent down to Ah l after struggling in the nhl- good news Boucher still struggling with fitness level- good news Yup all prospects are trending up just because you can't handle hearing any criticism towards them. I can totally see them all as the top in their positions for years to come lol.
  20. Top 3 what? Defenseman on the team?
  21. Why would you compare him to a non nhler. You don't even know if heiskanen is going to be an nhler.
  22. Why do people keep bringing heiskanen up? I don't care what that kid does. He's not a canuck prospect and there's no sign he'll be a canuck player. I'm talking about olli juolevi here. Olli was benched. On top of that he had another poor outing at the WJC. We're building something in Vancouver and if he wants to be a part of it he needs to play better.
  23. Boeser was benched in the best league in the world while we had a log jam of forwards available. He wasn't benched in the finish elite league for a never will be defenseman. And agreed that it's not anything to get worked up about but it still is a negative that he is benched.
