b3. Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Been told the #Canucks have called up defenseman Andrey Pedan, he's on his way to Tampa Bay. -News 1130 Sports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katobaron Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Perfect! Aside from his toughness he brings a lot to the table, if they can squeeze him in over Biega for a couple games he should be fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallstreetamigo Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I am ok with this. Wouldn't mind seeing him get a few games. Does anyone else kind of want to give a few looks to Subban though while we have the chance to see where he is at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree..but I have a feeling we wont see him..they will play Biega to get those 18 games he needs for the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like Green is sitting him some nights for his lack of defensive play.... he's not exactly a kid anymore so that kind of worries me for his future with us anyway.

LaBamba Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 they'll just do what they always do when they call him up. Nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gets scratched in Utica man, can you imagine how overwhelming defending would be here in the NHL for him? I think they should try the little bugger at forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocksterh8 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 If they are not going to give Suban a look they should trade him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chon derry Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 i hope he gets a few games in and rises to the occasion, and brings some physicality to the back end , hopefully he's paid attention to the lack of hitting that we've not been seeing ,and takes advantage ,but not holding out hope on either happening .

At this point, it would be better to see what we have in him at the NHL level, warts and all. Not calling him up and seeing what they have diminishes his value just as much if not more than him coming up and struggling a bit (even if the ultimate plan is to trade him). He needs a chance to show what he can - and can't - do. Since it doesn't really matter if we lose this season and we are injury riddled right now, now is the right time to stop only taking the safe road and give our young players a real look.

TheGuardian_ Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 I guess they needed some one to open and close the door on the bench OR Eriksson likes to sit on a warm bench, get it? Bench warmer. In the effort to please the Sedins they will have to trade away youth and Pedan is well thought of in the league, a good prospect, so maybe it is a little show and shine then a deal for a high scoring AHL player that is a Medicine Hat alumni, a guy Willie coached against, someone else who deserves a shot because he paid his dues, someone else who deserves a third or fourth chance,......

I think they should try the little bugger at forward Maybe seeing first hand how hard the NHL is might actually help wake him up about the adjustments he needs to make if he wants to play in the NHL. My point was we really have nothing to lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForsbergTheGreat Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 YES, good news to hear. Canucks need to get more intimidating. 6 minutes ago, wallstreetamigo said: Since it doesn't really matter if we lose this season and we are injury riddled right now, now is the right time to stop only taking the safe road and give our young players a real look. Yep, and he didn't look out of place last year when he got called up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kokanee king Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Dress 7d for each game and let the 7th be someone new every 5-10 games. That might be better to watch than Skille for 3-4 minutes a night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonass Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Finally now maybe Mr.T will understand exactly what the coaches are saying to him. I speak a little Spanish but couldn't imagine trying to take detailed instructions in Spanish. I think his Russian translating is priceless !
