This guy is going to be a fan favorite, big hits, fights, point production and egging on the other team!! I always remember this when I think about Roussel and how he trolled the Chicago fans haha
-
Use Sutter and Beagle as the bottom 6 C's and top PK guys. Interchange Sutter with Granlund or whoever is the 2nd line C when they need a switch-up. Move him for a pick/prospect or both to a contender.
-
I would be all for Sutter staying out of the top 6 period, have him and Beagle center the 3rd and 4th line and handle PK duties. Would rather have Granlund over Gagner between Baertschi and Pettersson, so underrated offensively and has a nice shot he can get off quick with some nice feeds by Elias. That is a good idea to swap in/out Goldy and Leipsic, both bring their own qualities to that line.
-
Does Goldobin get 1st shot at LW on the top line this year? He does have some nice passing ability to setup his linemates but his leash is so short with Green. Let him play through the mistakes Coach and let the line develop some chemistry.... put Baertschi on the 2nd line with Sutter and Elias.
-
Just out of curiousity, do you think if Jake played with Elias, Elias could bring out the goal scoring from Jake? We know how nifty Elias passing can be and if Jake can get himself into scoring position for some cross-crease passes, he could be in line for a definite uptick in some goals. Not if but when Elias draws the opposition towards him, he can thread the needle to a wide open Jake for some one-timers.

went back a few pages, looking for any updates on his size and weight if any one has this? elite prospects has him at 6ft1 and 185lbs but I am sure he is heavier than that

We all know Woo was a ppg player up until his injury, and then he lost his spot to Clague when he got back and this was the reason for his drop in the draft... does he get top pairing minutes next year? Will he continue with his offense from prior to his injury?
-
Have you seen his passes?? Boeser is a 30g scorer in his rookie year.... now he is going to receive some of these tape-to-tape passes and with a quick snap of his wrist, instant goal scored!! Boeser might just be a 50+ goal scorer with Hughes feeding him seeing eye passes right to him in his office
-
when Svechnikov was picked, and they started talking about people talking about lying about his age, hahahaha, he looks like a fully grown man, and then he started talking at his draft interview and he sounded like a 28 year old man ahahahahha
-
Let's just go back to the day Brock lucked out against Matt Murray shall we, Brock must have been carrying his lucky charm that day for sure.....
-
Yes!! This exactly... His speed, size and hitting are exactly what this team needs. He has been smarter with his hits versus looking for the big hit and when he plays like that, other teams look for him when he is on the ice and that takes them off their game. Those takeaways are not going unnoticed by Coach Green either, so hopefully Jake can come out blazing and have the Coaches trust right away.
-
Granlund is such an underrated player. Just don't put him with Sutter. He would probably be a really good complement to Boeser and Horvat or playing with Pettersson. I can see why he was paired with Sutter as he is a capable defensive forward but in doing so just sucked the offense right out of him and in a contract year too. I hope he stays, I like what he brings to the team.
-
More backhands too please!!! Nice stickwork, keep up the hard work and training, it will pay off.
-
Just looking more into this stat for Jake and it gets better, was looking at all players with the same amount of takeaways, (keep in mind it is only 5 with the same amount of takeaways at 51, [Monahan, Hoffman, Oshie, & Zetterburg]), and they all averaged between 1300-1500 TOI, versus Jake with only 898 TOI. So as his minutes increase, we should actually see a nice bump upwards in his takeaways.
-
One thing that impressed me with Virtanen and his speed, his ability to takeaway or strip pucks from the opposition. Takeaways always lead to good goal scoring opportunities and he had 51 takeaways last year. Put him with someone like Gaudette and I bet they can convert alot of those takeaways on the odd-man rush.
-
Whats the ceiling for Gadjovich? 3rd liner that plays well with puck distributors, as he did with Suzuki, but from what I read on him in the past, he put up alot of shots while playing with Suzuki, so that's a positive.
-
Roussel and Virtanen on the same line!!! Imagine the hits from that line, maybe switch out Sutter for Leipsic though, at least he could feed both of them.
-
Most likely spends the next year in Utica but if he has a good year this year could be a injury callup, can't wait to see what he can do for the Comets!!! Let him acclimate to pro hockey and learn the ropes before putting him on the 2nd line with a good centre.

Elias Pettersson | #40 | C

Were there people here that were actually worried he might not sign his ELC this summer? Just curious -
Elias Pettersson | #40 | C
Sugar baby watermelon replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Current Roster
there was a lot of hand wringing on will he/won't he sign... sound familiar? I recall this was done with Boeser too lol... we should be in for great things -
does anyone know who Dipietro will be competing with for starters duties at the upcoming WJC's? it should be his with his valuable experience from the Worlds but just wondering..
-
Does anyone really think that the BFG is coming back? If he did come back where does he slot in? He will probably want a top 4 role.
-
Good now we can all just move along and support Olli and his development path to the NHL.
-
Less blocking shots and faster outlet passes but that is easy to say and harder to do... seriously though, Tanev is so good at absorbing hits when retrieving pucks and taking the hit and moving the puck out a split second before, but it definitely takes a toll on his body
