Dats hockey Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 @N7Nucks@Ray_Cathode can we just be happy we are scoring goals and the games are atleast close. Also so what is Goldy is feed off pettersson that is production, production we NEEDED. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Leipsic and Goldy were average at best at the time of my posting this. If you wanna hit me with the hindsight card fine, but even then Goldy is largely feeding off Pettersson's electric start and Leipsic has done next to nothing in the NHL thus far this season and when Roussel comes back I imagine his name will be one of the first when it comes to who gets waived. 1 goal in 2 games played is definitely next to nothing on a team that's struggled to score goals...

Against that you have to allow for his greedy puck hog approach probably costing 2 goals and his line mates a goal each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentSam Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 (edited) Guadette may have come from College Hockey, but he is a “blue collar” player.. agree that yes, he should be in Utica.. but when this one has his 3 speed game defined and has bruised a couple of elbows, Vancouver is Home. I see his game galloping by Christmas, and being a huge contributor in the playoffs. Next season he takes a solid position in Vancouver full time.

His first full season pro will be very telling. I personally see him as a clutch offensive threat third line centre but wouldn't be surprised in the least if he forced his way into the top 6. Just love the way he plays the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From everything I've heard, the Canucks firmly believe Gaudette has top-six ability. However, the way our roster is being constructed, he'll probably play third line. Possibly in a similar way to Kesler back in the day. Slotted into a third line role at 5v5, but still playing top-six overall minutes due to his usage on special teams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John McClane Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 I don’t think it’s just the #17. AG looks a little bit like a Manitoba Moose R. Kes. But with a more polished offensive skill set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, Petterson will inevitably take over the number 1 centre position from Bo as early as this season. It will be tough for Gaudette to push aside Bo for the official number 2 centre role but I can see them as a 2A, 2B in a couple years time. Whatever the outcome, with the emergence of petterson we are looking better and better down the middle. With the injection of youth and exciting prospects not quite in the show, I'm excited to watch canucks games again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering a lot of teams are running 3 scoring lines these days, I would imagine him after that extra bit of potential will be really nice for us on that 3rd line. We may not be able to roll 3 scoring lines now, but I think it's very possible after a few more prospects find their way onto the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post richado Posted October 13, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 13, 2018 Gaudette with 1 goal and 2 assists in Utica's 7-4 win over the Marlies today. Looks like he's gaining some traction. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re sure right about exceeding expectations from a draft position perspective, especially in light of today’s performance against Toronto - a goal and two assists in a 7-4 Utica win. Just needed last night’s ice breaker, I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westcoastsniper Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 Hope Gaudette get's called up if Beags and Petey are out. Get him going while his confidence is high. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
