Warhippy Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 There's a part of me that wants to flippantly mock CDC standards and post bust next to what some would consider the appropriate names and future HoF next to the others in true CDC style. Instead I will shrug my shoulders and smile knowing how much better that list will look in two or three years with consecutive years drafting 4 or 5 times in the first 3 rounds with early picks. Kids are looking good, Gaunce looks ready to step in. Shinkaruk looks so promising. Cassels and Subban need 2-3 years to marinate and find themselves. Boeser and Demko will be gems after they leave college and acclimate to a pro level game. We've nothing but time right now and in 2-3 years they'll look damned good, if these fans can stop labeling everyone a bust or putting way to much hope and emphasis on every single shift they play like they're the next coming of Howe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd. Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 How's Cassels doing in Utica? 1A in 21 games played? Yikes, maybe he's being sheltered which I see no problem as Green did that to Shinkaruk/Gaunce and they've turn into performers for Utica. Green really knows what he's doing back there. Neill at 6'3 200 pounds who's also a PMD could be a potential gem. And with Boeser getting recognition from everywhere and the World Juniors just around the corner, hopefully Boeser rips **** up. Demko's easily going to be our number one very soon. Hopefully they both sign contracts and come to us next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i do remember Benning saying that they were going to re-evaluate whats best for him after his first year of collage hockey or as Benning put it when he was asked about Boeser playing in the WHL he said something like one year at a time, next year he is going to UND and we well re-evaluate what best for him after his season is complete.

keredz Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Thx for posting, so far it's been a solid season for most of our prospects. Cassels is still adjusting after being injured after his memorial cup run. Hoping that he has a better 2nd half. Looking forward to watching Boeser play over the holidays.

Chalky Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Kuzma had a nice article on Boeser on the weekend. http://www.theprovince.com/sports/gamer+brock+boeser+could+canucks+next+thing/11602716/story.html Quote “I’m just trying to take it one game at a time, and I just worry about the next day before I worry about next year or anything after that. I’ll just see how things turn out.” I will not be surprised if he bails on College for pro hockey. It must be very tempting to make the jump early.

Lockhart Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 College athletes always say their education is important. I'm sure Boeser would be happy to sign a contract and start getting paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger Gino Brash Ryp Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Gaunce should be on the team next year. Shinkaruk only has a chance if they move out some of the old slow bodies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derp... Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Gauncer is on pace for like a 38 goal season in the AHL. He missed some time due to injury, but still is on pace to score 30, technically, we could have two 30 G prospects in the AHL with Gaunce and Shinkaruk. They could be our own Pearson and Toffoli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down by the River Posted December 27, 2015 Author Share Posted December 27, 2015 Updated Sat. Dec 26th. NCAA and CHL on a break so nothing to report. Looks like Mack Stewart might be going to Tri-City as an over-ager. Subban on a roll down in Utica. Cassels with his first goal of the season. Pedan making an impact on the Canucks depleted blueline. Sautner recalled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid had so much fight in him for a little guy. I was happy to see him sign with Comets. Haven't had a chance to see him play with them yet though. Valk returned to the Kalamazoo Wings Dec 31, 2015, and had a goal and two assists in a 5-3 win - damn, it's like he never left! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down by the River Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 I don't know what goes on with L. Blomstrand. His plus/minus fluctuations by a degree of ten from week-to-week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
