So all of these goals against are simply because he's on the ice? 1 player out of 6? I thought this was a team sport... it's not like we were destined to have great defense this year either. Maybe a little improved but not great, yet you want to blame a forward for goals against? Sure, he can be a part of it but maybe try and be a little more realistic about it rather than lazily throwing around some random stat? If you can prove JV's a poor player than do it. I'll listen. Seriously, but you need to actually prove it and not just give me 1 sentence in order to pretend you know what you're talking about.

There are a lot of holes in Goldobin’s defensive game, and in his less than enthusiastic forecheck, let alone terrible giveaways and poor judgement in regard to offensive risks taken. He has gradually improved his all around game in Utica, but he has a long way to go to regain Green’s trust. Green gave him many opportunities - hell, he really needed Goldobin to succeed, but it was just not happening. Offensively, he is an effective AHL player, but he still struggles with the above mentioned issue in Utica- but in fairness to Goldy, at least now he makes an effort at puck recovery or back-checking when he screws up. Another of Green’s issues with Goldy is, in my opinion, okay you did the things I want from two games ago, but not in the last game, how can he be trusted until he does the right things every game?

Pavel the Bure Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 from December 11, 2019 Sport-Express CSKA (Moscow) show some interest in Vegas forward Valentin Zykov and Vancouver forward Nikolay Goldobin. "Currently we are interesting in two forwards -Zykov and Goldobin" according to president of CSKA Igor Esmantovich. 24 year old Zykov played 8 games this year in NHL and have 2 assists, 24 year old Goldobin played only one game .

dpn1 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Watching NG last night and honestly, he will never play in the NHL again. He had so many scoring chances last night and flubbed all of them. Nothing personal, I just don't see him even remotely able to battle on the defensive side of the puck. If he wants to go to Russia just let him go. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but if he could do anything to help the Comets make a long(er) run in playoffs, that would be more than enough reason for the Canucks to keep him until his contract expires. Playoff experience like that is invaluable to our prospects. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't going to bump anyone from the current Van roster. He will be moving at some point. Same as Baer. Good seasons and a playoff run helps their careers. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noble 6 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 BUMP Goldobin showing some moves last game. I think Goldobin has handles the whole situation of getting cut really well. He's seen an example up close and personal of going back to Russia and still decided to stick it out here. That takes character and shows his desire to play in the NHL. He's really helped Utica out as one of their best players this year. There were reports that Goldobin has added more defensive responsibility and urgency to his game, which are the main things he needed to get back to the NHL. I'm not sure if he's improved in those areas to the degree he needs to, but he's on the right track. Unfortunately, I don't think the vision that Green and Benning have for this team includes Goldobin. I would like to qualify him at the end of the year so he can play in Utica for us next year, but the best thing for him might be to look for a NHL spot elsewhere. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devron Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 I really like that kid. He’s stuck it out big time, didn’t mope from what I can tell. Really wants to be in the NHL. Gotta think someone will trade a pick for him in the offseason. Maybe, maybe not. But I do wish him the best. Always wanted him to make it as a Canuck 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see him re-signing Goldy and/or Boucher for Utica/depth. Both are RFA's. Maybe not both for cap reasons but I can see one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tystick Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 I think Goldy gets another shot at training camp. He could be traded this summer, but a full year in Utica to really dig deep and play the way the Canucks want him too could end up being a great situation for him. He's not a bad player, just seemingly lacked the maturity to develop a full NHL game. I sincerely hope he makes it back up here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) I could see Goldobin + Eriksson (Post-bonus payment) sent to Ottawa for a low pick or a super low-tier prospect. Edited March 3, 2020 by Canadian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kloubek Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) According to TSN today, Ottawa almost traded for Goldy. Not sure what happened - Benning would be better off getting at least something for a player who doesn't seem to be in our plans. As far as how Goldy has handled himself - all class. I want this kid to succeed... even if it isn't with us. Edited March 3, 2020 by kloubek 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote According to Rick Dhaliwal of The Athletic, the Ottawa Senators were "close" to a deal to acquire from the Vancouver Canucks before claiming off waivers ahead of last week's trade deadline. Dhaliwal reports two-to-three teams were interested in Goldobin, who has appeared in just one game with the Canucks this season. The Russian winger, however, is just off a point-per-game pace with the AHL's Utica Comets this season, posting 19 goals and 30 assists in 50 games. Goldobin, scheduled for restricted free agency in July, appeared in 63 games with the Canucks last season, registering seven goals and a career-high 37 points. A first-round pick of the San Jose Sharks in 2014, Goldobin was acquired by Vancouver in 2017 in a deal that saw traded to the Sharks. Dhaliwal cites a source stating the 24-year-old "absolutely will try the NHL again next year," rather than making a move to Europe. The Senators, who claimed Hawryluk off waivers from the Florida Panthers on Feb. 17, made four trades at the deadline, shipping out , and from their NHL roster. Hawryluk, 24, has appeared in six games with Ottawa, posting three assists. He had one goal and three points in 15 games with the Panthers prior to be moving moved. He is also scheduled to become a restricted free agent in July. Can't imagine what they would have been offering? One of their 50+ picks in this year's draft maybe? Unless it was a higher pick, I think Goldy is more valuable in Utica right now helping them go as far as possible and getting our prospects valuable p/o experience this year and serving as a call-up if/when necessary.

theo5789 Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 I think the most we can take from this rumour is that it's good that we are talking with Ottawa. They should have some cap room and could possibly be a destination for us to unload some cap. Maybe Baertschi would be of interest to them with only one year left on his contract. If Goldy could be the sweetener, then even better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
