Good asset management by Rutherford to get a 4th and Pedan Waiving Rhuwedel would be better asset management than waiving Pouliot. I believe you're making an assumption here - one I wouldn't.

Good asset management by Rutherford to get a 4th and Pedan I don't mind the risk from Jimbo either. Or...vice versa, as Pedan was waived isn't it good asset management by Benning? IMHO, not a fan of using a pick but skill that DP has is intriguing as is the link back to your coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'NucK™ Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 How are people happy about this? We could've just picked the guy up off waivers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebreh Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 If we're looking for a Pedan replacement in, I would watch closely what LA would do with Macdermid! He could be on waivers soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
combover Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Pouliot "earns it" for opening night kinda like Larsen earned it last year. Not upset about wierdcoat 6'5 plays 5'1 and slow hopefully he get picked up Benning probably could have had pouliot for free off waivers later today.

hlinkas wrister Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I have to admit, I'm a little torn about this one. I had pretty much written Pedan off but he kept his game simple and was fairly effective this preseason as a result. It's all about potential ceilings I guess.

He has coached both players and would know better than anyone what they bring to the table. If Travis says "I think Pouliot has a better chance to succeed at the NHL level than Pedan" I'd listen. I think Travis has more say in personnel decisions than we're led to believe. Was thinking the same........Travis seems to have quite a bit of say on who's on the team.......so mgmt clearly has a lot of regard and confidence in him.

We still technically have 26 on the roster and have to get that down to 23. OJ to Finland should get one of those. Waiving Wier another, then it's Archie vs Boeser vs Virtanen for the 3rd guy. thanks that makes sense. Bye Arch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost in all this is Anton Cederholm who while paired with Pouliot was one of the best 1-2 in the entire CHL I'm really interested to see how this pans out over time and fully expect to see that 4th recouped at or before the trade deadline Exactly. There is more to this than meets the eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pouliot is already a success since he's 6' and plays like 5'11" and growing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chon derry Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 so many chances to get pedan into the lineup ,willy stubbornly went with bartkowski and weber last year when guddy went down .they just had it out for him, it was all wishfull thinking only because the little bit I saw of pedan he did show some snarl. so 2 players I don't really know much about.....

If Green can get the same levels out of Baertschi and Pouliot as he did in Portland and manage to get Cederholm over as well id be thrilled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much for "making room". I mean to be honest boeser kinda slowed down once the competition ramped up in pre season, and Benning said he isn't taking the first 9 games into account. Archibald on the other hand has been decent and might shove Dorset out, we don't know yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
