Ossi Vaananen Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Hmm, Air Canada Centre, what are these guys doing in Toronto? Did we send the prospects together out there, or are they that close of friends to fly cross country out of pocket. Anyways, it's cool to see them hanging out together.

I noticed that Jonathan Dahlen isn't there. Does this mean that he is on the outs with these guys as well? He has been is Vancouver working out with these guys. Seems like a stretch to me.

Great Granny Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Being that Igor is also Goldobin's agent, I found this clip very insightful. The same coaching principle will apply to Goldobin. Willie D coached exactly the same style that Igor is criticizing in this clip. Let's hope Green doesn't use the grade school detention method of coaching either.

Bruce Boudreau Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 I feel like Goldy has an uphill battle just to make the squad. He has to beat out Rodin and one spot is already accounted for Boeser. Sedin-Sedin-Granlund Baertschi-Horvat-Boeser Eriksson-Gagner-Sutter Boucher/Virtanen-Burmistrov-Goldobin/Rodin No more Megna or Chaput hopefully. 4 balanced lines. Gaunce and Dorsett both on LTIR to start year also on roster. Labate first call up.

Well Craig Button isn't the coach and for an eastern media dude to say "something is wrong in Vancouver" is somehow something new? Great thing for Canuck fans as lots of competition for spots this year. Nice change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody who watched Boeser last year knows he proved already he is ready for the big show and it's not to big for him. He already carries himself like a vet very mature for his age group like Horvat they are a cut above the rest of the Canucks prospects. He works out with NHL ers in the offseason back home in Minny. He's got a spot only question is what line. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonberries Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 I happen to think Goldobin is the most NHL ready of our prospects, even more so than Boeser. He looked to be toying with the AHL competition late last year. Most likely they both make the team but 40 games in Utica wouldn't hurt Boeser at all. In my opinion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnt Gravy Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Goldobin is a bonus. Worse case scenario we lose something we didn't expect to have anyway. Nothing wrong with having him as an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with having him as an option. We did lose Hansen for him. He provided speed, grit and some skill. You don't trade players like that for throwaway "bonus" players. If he doesn't pan out, then it's a huge fail on Benning and the organization. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would have lost Hansen in the expansion draft for nothing so yes he is kind of a bonus sure we lost sbisa but #5 defenceman should be filled by prospects with cheaper contracts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are lucky they took him and not Gaunce. You wouldn't get Sbisa for Gaunce straight up in a trade, imo and that is why LV took the more valuable player. With Goldobin and Dahlen, this year's draft and FAs, added to JB's previous repairs to the Prospect Pipeline, I cannot remember any training camp ever with this much legitimate competition for spots on the starting roster. Every position has quality talent knocking on the door; I can't wait to see which prospects kick down the door. NHL GMs and coaches will give the jobs to proven veterans they can count on, and send down anyone that can be sent down without exposure to waivers etc. I think Goldie has the talent to knock down the door, but (imo) he has to play whistle-to-whistle without stopping to show his disappointment when things don't work out as hoped. For example, when he loses the puck on a breakaway or something, he doesn't go right after it, he stops and demonstrates his frustration. Maybe put Ryan Johnson on him to show that non-stop motor, Dorsett too. Luongo used to do that too and it really bugged me. The most egregious example was in the Stanley Cup Playoffs when The Diva called an off-side but the linesman didn't. LaGongo (Don Cherry) was half-way to the blue line with his arms in the air complaining about the call while the puck was put in the goal behind him. May have cost us The Cup when added to other factors. Point is though, you gotta stay in the game between whistles; there'll be plenty of time to discuss objections once play stops. Along with others above, I thought Goldie and the Sedins looked real good and maybe he can help them attain the success they stated they want to rekindle this season.
