-Vintage Canuck- Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Tate Olson with 1 assist today. He now has 24 points (7 goals and 17 assists) in 58 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonecoldstevebernier Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 One assist for Olson today, and 7-19-26 in 64 games on the season. His production's down from last year, but the Cougars appear primed for a good playoff run which is invaluable experience. (And its great for Prince George too, they're overdue for a few playoff rounds and I hope they get those.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boudrias Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Watched Olson play against Kamloops last night. Does not appear to be on the #1 PP or #1 PK. Seems to jump up into the play quickly. 1 GA while on the ice but not his doing. Prince George all but has #1 in their division sewed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonecoldstevebernier Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Gotta feel for Prince George, first season in a long time that they've had such a good team and they're upset in the first round. My guess is that Olson will get signed but I wouldn't say its a sure thing... contract space could become an issue for next season and with Brisebois, Chatfield, Olson, and Neill all potentially turning pro next year I wonder if maybe Olson or Neill gets passed over.

I think that will depend on whether Benning can sign more FAs. If a guy like Raddysh signs you could see one or both of those guys passed over. Also depends on what kinds of trades benning makes this summer. Wont be at all surprised if Edler or Hutton and McEneny or Subban are packaged together for a very good offensive prospect. Canucks have a lot of D prospects that could be 4 to 6 D guys and need some offensive forwards in trades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking Olson and Neill lost the spot to Chatfield but I guess it's possible one of them still gets a contract. It doesn't look that way to me but we will find out soon.

I think Neill was drafted in his overage year so he may not be eligible for the NHL draft this year. So, in theory, his signing could be delayed or he may be able to be coaxed into signing an AHL deal. Olson has to be signed to an entry deal or he gets to re-enter the draft. Though, I suspect if he re-enters, he likely doesn't get selected. So, again, in theory he could signed after the deadline but the Canucks are gambling on whether or not he's selected by another team or not. With Neill's history with Brisebois (who is playing with Neill on the Charlottetown Islanders), my gut says that Neill has the upper hand in an Olson/Neill debate. Though, Olson is younger so that may factor into things. Frankly, the Canucks can never have too many defensemen it seems so signing both isn't the *worst* idea. It really will depend if the Canucks can lure a guy like Darren Raddysh or some College UFA D-man or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmonds blew it. Whenever we had something going Portland would come down within the next couple of shifts and take the momentum right back. Prime example was Game 5. McAuley ties the game after O'Brien made it 3-2, the place is going absolutely bananas, then 59 seconds later Edmonds lets one in through his legs.

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Still time but with Vancouver signing Chatfield and looking at Darren Raddysh could mean Olsen and Neill are gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
