cripplereh Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I agree edmonton could have been better if they let the young players make it in the nhl instead of throwing them in.Many of the young players would be stars now instead of one or two!

DeNiro Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Mark Masters @markhmasters 3m3 minutes ago Lines at 2nd Canada practice Dal Colle-Point-Konecny Debrusk-Bleackley-Virtanen Sadowy-Chartier-Hawryluk Beauvilllier-Barzal-Aube-Kubel Mark Masters @markhmasters 2h2 hours ago Team Canada practises today & tomorrow before facing Russia on Monday; 1st of 4 exhibition games over 4 days v RUS & CZE That is a tiny first line with Point and Konecny on the same line. Something tells me they'll switch that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Weasel Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 In that mic'd up youtube vid of subban and virtanen, I thought Virtanen came across as kind of annoying. Anyone else? I dunno, maybe it works for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austy Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 And as he was 'micd up' I guess he has to say something. Kinda tough from sidelines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibesawesomey Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 (edited) That moment during the WJC when he went after some Finnish guy that had just decked Lazar. Edited August 3, 2015 by ibesawesomey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, maybe it works for him. If you got annoyed by that then you probably think Ovechkin, Doughty and Crosby are annoying as well. So I guess annoying isn't exactly a bad thing.

Magic 8-Ball Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Trust me this kid is going to be a monster. His lower body is huge and his upper body isn't even close to filling out yet. He's gonna be a 225 pounder with blazing speed. That sounds great and all, but at 225 his speed will have to take a step back from "blazing". At any rate, seeing as how many of his hits seem to defy physics NOW, I'm just very interested to see how he turns out, however it may be. 225 and surprisingly fast? Awesome. 205-210, losing fat and adding muscle, with the speed he has now? Wicked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gyllenhaal Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Poor facial expressions and he talks too much. F this kid, trade him, he's going nowhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks want him at 205: http://www.theprovince.com/sports/Jamieson+Virtanen+learning+hard+Canucks+camp/11195615/story.html The general plan is to increase Virtanen’s strength and reduce his percentage of body fat. He arrived at Utica in May with 215 pounds on his big, 6-foot-1 frame, but the Canucks would like to see him at around 205 at training camp.

Could probably skate faster at that weight, and I'm not even sure if it'd affect his hitting much. Maybe with big dmen Edited August 3, 2015 by NaveJoseph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, maybe it works for him. What I saw was a kid in front of a camera in a situation that he wasn't familiar with, feeling pressure to say something.

He could easily gain weight and still lower his body fat. I think this would be preferable, as long as he doesn't lose speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
