I wouldn't say that kids who go to ivy league colleges are any harder working than students at other colleges. I would bet they aren't nearly as hard working because most of them come from wealthy, entitled families 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaudette Celly Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 On 12/2/2018 at 12:13 PM, Horvat is a Boss said: I don't see any reason to belittle the option of getting a degree while playing hockey. The only decisions Rathbone makes that affects us as Canucks fans are his hockey related ones, but he has to think about more than that. No belittling, that's not the distinction here as a player can continue getting his degree while playing pro hockey. As Boods commented, the incentive continues to increase with players earning bigger money earlier and earlier. If they are ready they come out, as the league keeps getting younger.

J-23 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 (edited) I saw a PNHLe list for defencemen starting at the month of December and Rathbone was 15th on the list. Ahead of guys like Boqvist and Juolevi. Great to see from a 4th rounder. The list is obviously going to change, however this is a good sign for me.

Watching their D play, and a couple of their guys have serious issues turning. They are taller, skinny, and fragile looking. They were actually really surprisingly terrible. Rathbone is a much better player than them for sure. Likely politics had to do with some of those US guys getting on that team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep watching old fella. I love Rathbone, but like every country there is a pecking order. Call it politics if you want, but which player would he replace from the USA roster?

Watch the game tonight, and you will notice two USA Dmen who clearly have trouble turning. They are both tall, and have spindly legs. Neither can keep up with the pace of play. Rathbone is better suited for this elite level hockey, where skating is ultra important. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack didn't do himself any favors by staying in highschool for an extra year. It cost him a couple rounds in the draft an opportunities to play for the USDP, but that's just the way it works. I agree he would look great on that team, but he didn't earn it the way the other players did. Their loss is the Canucks gain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack doesn't give a f---k because he was more interested in helping his family and in particular his younger brother. That is why he will drive himself on to be one of the best Canuck D's ever IMO no mater what schedule he follows. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
