Beary Sweet Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Benning may want to give this kid a shot again. He might be the next Forsling that got away and heating up in the SEL. @grantmccagg: Vancouver may want to try to get dman Tommernes back over next season if they still own his rights. Tearing up the Swedish league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigCountry18 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 The Swedish connection between the Canucks and Sweden has always been strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tearing up the Swedish league. I know he's a defenseman, but his story is closer to Rodin than Forsling, no? Neway sure hope his 176 pound listed on hockeydb is not up-to-date, otherwise he'll be the next Larsen, more than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancaster Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Since he's getting up there in age, most likely he'll want to sign on with a team where he can get guaranteed NHL time. He won't be coming back to just ride the buses in the AHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM_ Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I had to look up the circumstances: http://canucksarmy.com/2015/1/8/tommernes-terminated-more-moves-coming I would think if no one else grabbing him off waivers... where did you hear the rumour? Please don't say Botchford.... oops - reading comprehension - I see the tweet now 16 minutes ago, Beary Sweet said: Benning may want to give this kid a shot again.

Derp... Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Always nice developing a player to the point they can start to take off and then letting them go just before haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstewboy Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Not really a rumour that Canucks want him back. Speculation from a random twitter user, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saucypass Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I was literately going to just start a thread about suggesting bringing Tommernes back. Someone please hire me as GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenman92 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Waaaayyy too much skill to play on a Benning team. Just ask Subban how much Benning values defencemen that can score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeak Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 It's not a rumour. The tweet in question just says - "if they still own his rights" (which they don't) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like the only "ex-Canuck player" that works for the team as a scout worth anything over the years has been Thomas Gradin (granted he might only look good because of the craptacular scouts with the team in the past).
