Tyndall2 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Whenever he finally gets into a Canuck uniform the Canuck management need to get someone who will defend him on his line. Not a goon, but someone who can put the puck in the net on occasion and will stand up for his line mates. Any suggestions out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petterson will be useless in the playoffs unless he is at least 190lb ....sort of like Kane did absolutely nothing for Chicago in the early years....oh ...except for winning them the cup.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake flying around hitting people and using his great shot and Gadjovich reeking havoc in front of the net. Elias does whatever the hell he wants!

Pettersson can probably make more in the AHL? AHL salary is probably around 60K USD? Edited March 13, 2018 by khay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No accountability for players, coaches, or management. He had guys like Taylor hall and Jordan beetle show him the ropes both on and off the ice, and they were more concerned with getting girls on Whyte ave (popular bar scene here in Edmonton) than they were about having a good hockey team. They had 3 incredibly talented players that year in hall, rnh, and beetle, but no accountability. It’s no surprise two of them are gone from the organization. If nugent hadve been given players and staff around him that focused on developing all aspects of his game sooner, he’d be as good as horvat in my opinion. In in the past couple seasons there has been a big emphasis on improving his two way game and being more defensively responsible. He’s picking up on it and has developed into a really good second line centre, 55 point pace this season. but if these habits were enforced from day one, he’d be even better edit: just realized your based in Edmonton too so you probably know the saga already, but I think the point still stands I agree. I honestly thought RNH will be a PPG player. These injuries to the shoulder area us pretty tough to completely recover from based on my experience.

Pretty dumb Peaches wasn't challenging anyone except himself. Though, I'm not surprised you agree with him and FTG likes your post. Both of you love to whine and cry about how others can't handle your opinions, but can't seem to realize that many times your opinions are pretty dumb and deserve to be called out.

It makes me laugh people say he can't play at 160-170 because he will get destroyed by hits. How many big time hits do we see a game? How many of them are on light, shifty, quicker players? Rarely any. And even those guys don't get "murdered" when they do get hit. Most of the injuries we see aren't because of the hits. It's the reaction to being hit. Either illegal hits or falling awkwardly and tweaking legs or hitting their head on the ice or something. I can't even recall the last time I seen a dude get hit clean and because of his light weight he was injured, outside of players that received suicide passes. At worst his size just makes board battles tougher. Maybe I am dumb, I dunno. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Housing and transportation are indeed typically provided. Some other perks on a case-by-case basis too. Nothing opulent (except in truly exceptional cases) but the bulk of your contract can be banked after taxes paid which is very much unlike playing in North America. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McDonald’s workers in Sweden make like 10x that! Monthly, take in accord that the minimum wager for a cashier aged 18 who workers in a store for atleast 2 years is 22,200 +128/hr at weekends.. Incredibly low pay for the mvp of the League... Dont know about bonuses though, as it isnt like nhl where you got a set amount of bonuses you can reach as a rookie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
