  1. I was watching it on SN live, but I'm sure you'll soon find the audio archived at the TSN 1040 website. But he very clearly said "a couple of our college players".
  2. Of course it's possible that we're parsing his words too carefully and he's really talking about Boeser and someone like Kerfoot or Aston-Reese?
  3. Well I guess he could have been referring to Boeser and the freshman Lockwood, but that doesn't really make any sense, unless he is struggling with the books or just doesn't like school. He is far from a developed college prospect yet.
  4. Benning said he would be signing "a couple of our college players" at the post TDL press conference. I would assume he was referring to Gaudette and Boeser. So it sounds like Gaudette will be turning pro this spring.
  5. I'd like to see him at least squeeze a drop of jelly from that donut of his before the season is over. That's gotta be embarrassing for him.
  6. I think Green is trying to train him for a bottom six role on the Canucks. If he picks up what Green is putting down maybe we'll see him on the big club next year.
  7. If this is a four star thread I'd like to see a five...
  8. Let's not forget Tkachuk's dominant performance at the 2016 WJC where he was probably the best forward on team USA. He would have been an impact rookie just about anywhere in reality. I'm not here to pump his tires but he is a helluva young player and he's only going to get better. What at he has done in Calgary at that age is impressive. I think most fans were, and still are genuinely surprised we passed him over.
  9. Great point. As media goes, unless it's coming from Ferraro or Tomlinson I don't pay attention to it, it's just noise. I believe Green has said Jake is playing better and progressing with his understanding of how to play the pro game. Sounds encouraging to me. My only real regret is that we pushed him into the lineup prematurely last year. This should really have been his first pro season.
  10. Maybe try that in training camp next year. Gotta try to win games now and that's not gonna help.
  11. It still isn't working for me today.
