Really hoping Jimbo smartens up and offers this kid a 15 year 67.5million dollar contract. If not, I want him fired! FEED HIM TO THE WOLVES!

Tre Mac Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Kole Lind, Jonah Gadjovich, and Micheal DiPeitro all invited to Canada's WJC Camp http://www.vancourier.com/pass-it-to-bulis/three-canucks-prospects-heading-to-team-canada-world-junior-development-camp-1.21045154 Quote The last Canucks prospect to play for Team Canada in the World Junior Championship didn’t fare too well. Jake Virtanen was expected to be an offensive leader on the 2016 team after a solid 2015 tournament in a supporting role. Instead, he and Team Canada crashed and burned, falling to the eventual gold medalists Finland in the quarterfinals. Related Michael DiPietro brings a Cloutier-like battle-level to Canucks development camp Canucks take Kole Lind 33rd overall in the second round Canucks pick power forward Jonah Gadjovich 55th overall Canucks grab goaltender Michael DiPietro in third round Canucks prospects will hope for a better result in the 2018 tournament. The Canucks could have as many as three prospects playing for Team Canada, as Michael DiPietro, Jonah Gadjovich, and Kole Lind have all been invited to the Canadian National Junior Team development camp. DiPietro is the youngest of the four goaltenders invited, but still has a strong case for making Canada’s final roster in December, with strong international performances in the Under-17 championships and the Ivan Hlinka tournament. Carter Hart is the incumbent, with a World Junior silver medal already under his belt, which is, admittedly, a strange place to keep a medal. Gadjovich has no international experience, but a 46-goal, 74-point season at 6’2”, 200+ lbs will get you noticed. He’ll be in tough, with a lot of returning players boasting similar size, but another goal-filled season for Owen Sound will make it difficult to leave him off the roster. Lind isn’t listed on the camp roster just yet, as he was a late addition. Like Gadjovich, he has no international experience, which puts him behind the 8-ball, but Canada would be foolish to leave one of the top scorers in the WHL off of their camp roster. All three will presumably play in the World Junior Summer Showcase in Plymouth, MI, which runs from July 28th to August 5th, featuring games between split-squad American and Canadian teams, as well as teams from Finland and Sweden. They won’t be the only Canucks prospects participating. Will Lockwood, their 2016 3rd round pick, is on the USA development camp roster after a strong freshman season at the University of Michigan, while Olli Juolevi and Elias Pettersson will presumably represent Finland and Sweden, though their rosters have yet to be released. TSN broadcast the last World Junior summer showcase, but they have yet to indicate they will be doing so again this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Podz92 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Didn't manage to catch the game myself but @CanucksNow is reporting that Dipietro made 11 saves on 12 shots in Canada white's 2-1 win over USA blue. https://mobile.twitter.com/CanucksNow/status/892557942041395202 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down by the River Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Another good showing for DiPietro today. Button said that Canada has a history of going with an 18yr old/19yr old tandem at the WJHC so that the 18yr old has some experience when they show up for the tournament the year after. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rollieo Del Fuego Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 He is such a young one as well with the June '99 birthday he will be 18 for almost a year still.....lots of time to grow and get better.... If Markstrom takes a step in the right direction we will be loaded with goaltenders for years to come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 A coach wants a goalie that he knows can win the big game. Dipietro has shown he can thrive in the big games and stay calm under pressure. I think that alone will give him an edge. Hart will likely be starter, but if he falters early I don't think it's impossible that Dipietro could be given the reigns.

PunjabiCanucks Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 By the time Demko is at his peak, this guy will be knocking. We may have a nice tandem in net and then we trade one 10-15 yrs down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
