Predictions on Rodin

Recommended Posts

Now that the Canucks have officialy signed Rodin to a one year contract , what do you guys think his stats will be like with the Canucks? Do you think he will produce numbers anywhere near Panarin? Let's say he plays 82 games in 2016/17 what will his stats be?

Another low budget signing.  One year is fine...produce or be gone.  Only issue is I see Rodin is 5'11" 185.  Another smallish forward, with no bite to his game most likely.  When are we going to get some size and grit up front?

This thread should be retitled 'Predictions on Rodin -pessimists only please'

 

Good lord people ... it's a 1yr deal. He was just named MVP in a decent league. The Canucks have a boatload of cap space and he's the 'right age' to help bridge till the young guys are ready. If he doesn't work out at least they tried. I'm no expert but I'm fairly confident teams have to take the occasional chance on a player. I'm hoping he's a 15-20 goal player ... if not, he's out and Boeser is in after 2yrs of college.

I remember him from when he was all shiny and new...

 

lots of of talent and decent potential but seemed to be really hampered by injuries. 

 

If if I remember correctly he had a bad shoulder? 

 

Seems like he's doing well and figured out his game a bit. I think the transition from SEL to NHL will be a big one though. 

 

Im betting he plays similar to Granlund. Maybe hope for like 20-30pts on a 3rd line if he stays in the line up.
