I think Green told Goldy to come back this year in better condition, and lighter, so he would be quicker, and able to compete harder without getting too tired. Looks like Goldy did exactly what the coach wanted. I sure hope we keep Goldy (who would certainly get claimed) over guys like Loui and Schaller. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will cut Goldy some slack though, because it was just the first preseason game. A lot of players are still getting out the summer rust. He does look more fit, that's for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NG was wide open a lot at side of net and transitioning around but no one could get him the puck. I did go holy crap when he didn't go for the puck and straight up cross checked the dude like he had decided he was going to play the body no matter what.

I fully expect Eriksson to be gone within a month's time. The org depth has overtaken him. Goldy gets some time but it will be short as well. He cannot be waived so JB likely would deal him. Bottom line is that Vancouver depth will allow Benning to actually make hockey deals. He has to pick up some CAP space if he wants to tweak his lineup going into playoffs. Yes, Canucks will make playoffs IMHO. This is from a well established "tanker" who has to give Benning huge cred. He has moved my CUP contender timeline up to 2 years from 3 - 4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reyezone Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Sorry Goldy, I like your skill but compete seems to just not be in your DNA. You are no Alex Mogilny and can't seem to generate the points and finnish to justify your place on this roster. I foresee a long and successful KHL career.

Saved a goal with a sliding backcheck, I'd never thought that was him until Cheech said so. I think he's pretty focus on playing in his own end but he still misses pretty easy chances. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaudette is working to hard at the NHL level. He needs to mentally catch up to the game so he can make plays well playing hard. He has been trying to do way to much on his own early on here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanukfanatic Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Goldy can stick handle around obstacles on the ice all he wants but that won't get him a spot on the Canucks. Everyone already knows he is very skilled. Goldy needs to start going to dirty areas and battling guys for pucks. If he continues to NOT do that, he will get waived. It seems, to me, as though he is close to being waived as it is. His only hope at this point is a regular getting injured in pre season allowing him more time to try to get his s&$# together.

The only player I noticed Goldy having any chemistry with was Pettersson, but highly unlikely he beats Ferland or Baertschi out for that LW spot. Sorry Goldy, you had plenty of chances over the last 2 years. This team is getting real good and they need everyone putting out the same "playoff type" effort. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's going to make the team out of training camp. Maybe he's gotten better, but so has the team overall. He just hasn't had much gains, not ones that would outweigh the rest of the team. It's too bad. One of those examples, of having a ton of talent and skill, but just not being able to put it together. I think Goldobin will have an NHL career in one fashion or another, it just won't be with the Canucks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only option for JB would be to trade Jake. I don't see that happening though, especially considering the amount of time the team has spent developing him. Jake is actually a very solid third line NHL player. I wonder why Green doesn't teach Jake to PK? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, I am forced to agree with you. He's one of those players that has all the skill in the world to succeed yet doesn;t have the passion or drive to match. Right now, I can't see any scenario where Goldy sticks anf his opportunities are running low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
