Adarsh Sant Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Quote Vancouver, B.C. - Vancouver Canucks General Manager Jim Benning announced today that the club has recalled forward Nikolay Goldobin from the Utica Comets. Goldobin, 22, has skated in 14 games with the Canucks this season posting four points (2-2-4). The forward leads all Comets players with 21 assists and has amassed 30 points (9-21-30) in 28 AHL games played this season. The Moscow, Russia native has appeared in 37 career NHL games (6-3-9) and 146 career AHL games (52-72-124). The 5'11", 199-pound forward was originally drafted 27th overall in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft by San Jose. He was acquired by the Canucks, alongside a conditional fourth round selection in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft, in a trade with San Jose for Jannik Hansen on February 28, 2017.

Gaudette Celly Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Hopefully not an indication that Boeser had a bad MRI and is out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajax- Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Good time to get a good long look at these young prospects, about time We really need to have a better idea of what we have in the cupboard. Sit some Vets, some perhaps nursing injuries, play the young prospects and see what they do it can't be any worse than what we are watching and JB come on, pull the trigger make a trade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vintage Canuck- Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 The Canucks tried to get Goldobin to Carolina when they learned Boeser's hand was feeling stiff yesterday morning and couldn't go, but the time didn't work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM_ Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 good, it would be great if he could stay up for the rest of the year. I don't need to see any more of Boucher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammertime Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 This is his big chance!!!!! Don't blow it Goldy there are some O zone and PP mins up for grabs if he can make an impression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd. Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 What's the point? Green's going to play him 8-10 minutes with Dowd and Virtanen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alflives Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Time to play Goldy, and actually let him play. Stop the over coaching, and let our kids free wheel. We’re losing anyway, so why not let the fans see the kids flying around out there? Is there any way to send Ericsson down, even with his NMC?

I haven't seen anything out of Boucher to make me think he's earned a spot over anyone in the top 9. Just my 2 cents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. He has been better than Virtanen in his short time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody should be allowed a free ride to coast no matter the contract. He wouldn't be picked up, he'd be the highest paid AHLer, but it wouldn't be the first time a teams done that either (see Redden NYR). On Goldobin, this is exactly the time of year we should be playing these guys....Dahlen needs to make it over too. Also yes give them some PP time, we already know what the Sedins can do, it's time to see what others can do facing similar assignments, the scoreboard has little significance other than a coaches record...Green wanted the job so he should be prepared to take a hit on his L column. Next year things reset, but this season should now be about giving chances, including some of the peachy ozone starts and PP time. Edit: Checked his contract, he can be waived starting next season, his NMC ends this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phat Fingers Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Well wonder what deal is coming in for Vanek? Early to be trading him for a 3rd. Maybe a bigger deal, either that or they are showcasing Goldy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slegr Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Some sick skill wth him, time to see if the 2-way teachings in Utica are rubbing off at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Hope they give him enough of a shot to prove his legitimate upside. If he's not good enough they should seek to trade him at the deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Green is going to have a tough time preaching defensive responsibility to Goldobin when he allows the vets to get away with all kinds of lazy play. Just let him do his thing. He shouldn't be held to a higher standard than anyone else on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
