CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 just bad luck didn't give us a good look at him being a healthy player. Showed so much potential at training camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancaster Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 This is his prime earning years, so it's only fair for himself (and family if he has any) to get his payday. With the new addition of Goldobin and Dahlen, plus with Boeser potentially making the jump next season, Virtanen competing for spots, other guys in the minor and who knows if the Canucks can draft some phenom who is capable of stepping in. I certainly hope that the Canucks can give Rodin another shot next season with maybe some out-clause. Would allow some prospects to spend more time in the AHL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ossi Vaananen Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I think it's more Rodin not showing loyalty. I mean this guy received a pay check for being injured virtually the entire season. He was with the team on flights, and management was more than patient with him. I'd like to think that he'd sign here again next year and earn his backpay.

This is most likely an indication that Rodin is not wanted back by the Canucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the SHL MVP and the KHL has been known to sign players to multi-million dollar deals often, especially star players. I wouldn't be surprised to see him get over a million per year.

Nuxfanabroad Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 If the dude can go get a mill+ in Russia, wouldn't hold it against him. Pretty lousy luck, last 12~13 mos... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cripplereh Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Only way he stays in the NHL is with vegas I think or we trade him elsewhere I do not want him back and think management will trade or let him go with the many players we have to take his spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

86Viking Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 So did Rodin undergo this procedure? If so what is the timetable for his recovery and ability to start training? I hope he is given another contract to give the nhl a try. Canucks need all the skilled players possible, icing a ton of 20 year olds isnt ideal imo at the nhl level. good to let them season a bit in the AHL we have 0 need to rush any of our prospects Hence why giving Rodin another 1yr deal is worth it imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timeline for recovery (as provided by team) was six months (including all rehab and training). So he should be 100% by next season's training camps. Also, based on what I've read on his specific procedure, the odds are very good that he should be completely pain-free and basically "cured" so that he won't have any future knee issues (at least associated with his bipartite patella).

That said, I'd love it if he re-signed and was able to stay healthy for a year or more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaudette Celly Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Would not count him out at all if he can fully recover. Looked very promising in the preseason, but there are more kids now pushing for spots. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
