elvis15 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 dude stop, its a pretty simple point hes trying to make, not hard to understand lol But his point is pretty simple too. The only people that are forgetting about Gaunce (or any other prospect that isn't the hot topic) is because they only casually follow our prospects at best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seven pounds soft Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) I wouldn't say forgot about gaunce , but moved him down the depth chart for sure. He might have second line potential. Weirder things have happened. Anyways some people forgot about Dre too. We all know how that turned out.

Lancaster Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 The thing is that Gaunce isn't flashy, speedy or overly physical. He's more or less like the jack-of-all trades kinda player. Initially when drafted, they mentioned how his play resembles that of Trevor Linden. Not the quickest, but a strong skater for his size. Not a behemoth power forward, but have the size and strength to pose a challenge to any defender. Not gonna win any scoring trophies, but can put up points consistently. Not the most offensively gifted, but terrific defensively. Much like Trevor, he'll probably top out as a #2 centre or RW (TL was better as winger). Worst case scenario... a Manny Malhotra shut-down defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lock Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 It's an expression that you guys are taking way too seriously. Over the course of the last year, year and a half, would you guys not agree that we (CDC) have discussed more about our most recent picks? I'm saying his been maybe lost in the shuffle when people are evaluating the future of the Canucks. I see very often circulating on other prospects page, predicted lineups where Gaunce may not even been mentioned. People like to talk about Virtanen, McCann, Shinkaruk, Cassels, etc. "It's an expression" is not exactly a reason. It's more of an excuse. You made a statement that made it sound like you think you know what everyone else is thinking. If he was lost in the shuffle we wouldn't be talking about him at all. I wouldn't worry about him.

Figures of speech tend to do horribly on forums if you use one to put "thoughts in other's brains". This thread is pretty evident of that. lol Edited January 17, 2015 by The Lock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hlinkas wrister Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Wow, I checked in and starting worrying that I had just come out of a worm hole and Gaunce was 26 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah apparently he was forgotten and he's lost in outer space now. Figure of speech of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off_The_Schneid! Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 (edited) Anyone think Gaunce should get the call up If Richardson is out for an extended period of time? Even though we've been winning, our 2nd and 3rd lines haven't looked good as of late Edited January 20, 2015 by Off_The_Schneid! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asian player Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Anyone think Gaunce should get the call up If Richardson is out for an extended period of time? Even though we've been winning, our 2nd and 3rd lines haven't looked good as of late they could probably do what they've done with Jensen, Bo-Sang, Corrado. He may not even have to play, but it'll be a good experience for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dasein Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Anyone think Gaunce should get the call up If Richardson is out for an extended period of time? Even though we've been winning, our 2nd and 3rd lines haven't looked good as of late No, because it's the all-star break after tomorrow's game. If Richardson is out long-term (which I doubt), then I think the call up should be O'Reilly, DeFazio or Jensen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
