Daly said violators of the expansion rules forgo a first-round draft pick, so penalties in the same vein would be "appropriate." New Jersey Devils GM Ray Shero insisted anyone would be crazy to attempt that type of circumvention. Is the chance of maybe keeping rodin (while still losing another player) worth losing our first rounder for? Your tinfoil conspiracy theories are a bit much for me. Pretty sure I've said everything that needs to be said. Btw you might want to troll Ray Shero next, he called you crazy. *Sorry to anyone else reading this for hijacking rodins thread with this machination debunking.* Edited December 24, 2016 by coryberg disclaimer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodin played, but was hard to notice as he did not do anything. WD pretty much stapled him to the bench for the second half of the game. He finished with about 7 minutes of TOI. His stat line was all zeros except for 1 blocked shot. Guys with Rodin's type of background rarely make it in the NHL. And the tendon damage and surgery are a big negative. He may have a full recovery in terms of normal use but if he loses a bit of speed or quickness on his skates long term (as is possible or even likely) it can have a big negative effect. In any case, he did nothing in his NHL debut. And he was so-so in Utica. He will generate very little if any interest from Las Vegas or anyone else as a UFA. (Yes, he scored a few points in pre-season, joining a long list of players who have a pretty good pre-season and never amount to anything in the NHL. Anyone remember Sergei Shirikov?) In my opinion, the Canucks do not need to worry about "locking him up", entering into "backdoor deals" or anything else, because he unlikely to be a impact player in the NHL. I could of course be wrong and I hope I am. Maybe he lights things up in the second half of the year. But I would take long odds against that happening based on his career so far and his injury.

canucklehead44 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Coming in the season late from injuries, on a team that score - I don't expect Rodin to light the world on fire. Maybe something like 10-15 points in 35-45 games. We will have to expose one of Granlund or Hansen - either one would likely be a more attractive target for Vegas if they don't end up snagging Sbisa.

Hockey Stache Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Anyone have any idea why he has not played the last 2 games? He was brought back to help with scoring for a team that has big troubles scoring. His first and only game he plays 7 minutes. I recall reading that while he was in Utica for his conditioning stint that the coaches were raving about his speed and puck skills. Sounds like something the Canucks could sorely use. Not sure why they wouldn't try him with the Sedin's instead of a a plug like Megna. Where is Rodin???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rollieo Del Fuego Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Rodin took a big hit early on in that game....he is going to need to keep his head up more with the way he plays even more so then most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boudrias Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 So much hope and excitement about a player who has played in 1 NHL game. All I know was that he was banged up playing for the AHL Wolves and again in the SEL. Yet on CDC you have fans wanting to move Baer or Granlund in order to play Rodin. I hope he plays against the Oilers as I do want to see his game. Sit Megna and play Rodin. I'm interested but far from convinced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgot where I heard it (tv/radio), but I do remember hearing they wanted to give him some practice time to get him familiarized with the team and into a little better game shape. Just like Tryamkin, I'm sure he'll get his chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like Tryamkin, I'm sure he'll get his chance. I tweeted Patterson this question this morning. We'll see if he responds. Rodin played the fewest minutes by far of all the Canucks (a little over 7 minutes) against Calgary. My impression was wow, is this guy fast. Next thing he was relegated to the 4th line. It was probably a little early for him to come back and his knee was bothering him. There's nothing to lose with this guy. I think they should be as patient as they can with his rehab. He's way faster than Baer and just as skilled (maybe more). Edited December 31, 2016 by Crabcakes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
