[Signing] Canucks sign Jeremie Blain


Recommended Posts

Blain actually put up a lot of points in junior and ECHL, Canucks fans probably would be very excited about him if we actually were the ones that originally drafted him.

This looks to be a solid depth signing for the Comets.

Talent Analysis

Blain's calling cards are his physicality, his effort level, and a nice set of offensive tools. He has good size and uses it well, and is a leader on his junior team. There are areas to improve upon, mostly when it comes to mobility and defensive awareness and positioning, however he has a lot of nice tools to work with.

Future

Blain has much of the skill set of a tough, top four, offensive minded blueliner. He already delivers on both the power play and even strength from a scoring standpoint, is a willing combatant, and loves getting his nose dirty. If he's able to pick his skating and defensive play up by a couple notches, he could well be a quality 2nd pairing rearguard who can contribute with the man advantage. Failing that and he may not be more than a depth defenseman when all is said and done.
