Brouhaha Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I forget who, but one of our prospects named Etem as his favourite nhl player a while ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyIe Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 And here I thought a medicine hat connection wouldn't be made this year. Best of luck to Jensen. Hope AV gives him the time of day this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I bet AV asked for Jensen. He sees the talent JB wd don't see. Hope I'm wrong and etem scores goals =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by the fact the Honey Badger just joined a gaggle of Canucks on IR - and Etem could only be assigned for a "conditioning stint" I'd guess he's right into the lineup.

Shift-4 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I was never all that impressed with Jensen either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86Viking Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 when hansen and sutter are back we will have 4 extra forwards on the roster. we can only keep at most 2 i would think. Vey may be going back to Utica after tomorrow before he needs to re clear waivers. another move ore two could happen once these two players are healthy to return, or jake could go back to Jr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he was sent down to NYR farm team for a conditioning stint so maybe he continues that in Utica? Don't know but that would make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzy Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Jensen's stock has been falling for a long time, when that happens you know it's something that cannot be fixed. Etem is in a slightly better situation, yes he hasn't been the player he was projected to be but his descent has been on a lesser scale than Jensen's. He'll get a good look with the Canucks now and will be more suited to our team than the Rangers. good move by JB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has to clear waivers to go back to the AHL. Was sent on a conditioning stint of 3 games, I guess he could play those 3 games with Utica? Has to come back up after though.

theminister Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I think this is a great trade. Jensen is going to struggle to stay in the NHL, IMO, and Etem had much more upside even at the respective points in their careers. Etem is still has a far, far better likelihood in my appraisal As I said in the earlier thread, I see the worst case scenario for Etem is a DSP type player that can move up and down the lineup. Best case scenario is a Wayne Simmonds type. And, no, before you ask, that is not influenced by skin colour. Solid, solid move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know but that would make sense. JB said he's coming straight to Vancouver. JH is going on IR freeing up a roster spot for EE. Will practice with the team and Willy will decide if he's in the line-up Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desiboynux4lifee******* Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 etem looks like a another Vey project, either hit the jackpot or miss, Jensen was playing better in Utica, but Jensen's upside is only a Antropov meh this trade is meh. Etem is hyped, I remember callers on team1040 wanting Etem for Kesler LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, AV never gave Jensen a chance. It was Torts who gave Jensen his brief stint in the big leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
