Jack to GM "Nah, not nervous. It was your daughter that kept me up after your wife was finally asleep" . That would get him to fall in the draft. Tacky comment. You’re better than that Rob.

cory40 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Is Quinn as talented as Jack? Would he have gone 1 or 2 if he was a forward? I have said since the lottery last year! Rasmus is not the best offensive defenseman in the draft. In my mind (still has to be played out) Quinn will be a high point producing defenseman and the highest to come out of the 2018 draft as he was already playing with men!. And in todays NHL his skating could be something that makes 6 other teams wonder why they didn't take Quinn. Detroit is going to be the team that regrets it the most, because they had their eye on him! We currently do not have a defenseman that can skate backwards walking the line on the power play creating open ice and different looks! Going forward Quinn probably could step right into the NHL! Wait until March! he step in and help with a play-off push? And if he does, would you want to be the team facing the Canucks in the first round? Don't get me wrong to me the 11 game stretch is going to bite them. But man have the Canucks been decent especially if you take that stretch out. (clearly injury related results) And I am proud of management for not letting the kids use excuses! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I'm just happy we've got a player like Quinn tbh, the odds of us getting a top 2 pick aren't all that great. Hell, everyone knows we aren't allowed to pick higher than 5 after we pulled off that Sedin heist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester13 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Just listened to his 650 interview. Stoked he feels so ready and has some swagger. Boy, does he ever sound kinda meh, tho, every time he's asked about the Nucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boy, does he ever sound kinda meh, tho, every time he's asked about the Nucks. Interesting you think that. I watched the draft and the difference in the reaction of his brothers was apparent. What it means can be translated in different ways though. Luke: "Tough luck bro'" Although the only teams he may have wanted more could have been Chicago or the Oilers. I'd imagine he would have felt playing with McDavid in a Canadian market would have been cool, who knows? Every kid will have a favourite but it's not like Toronto were even close. Jack: "You lucky guy, getting to play with Pettersson." or "You were never going to Toronto so you may as well make the best of it" Having said that, joking aside he actually seemed to be elated in the interview and his Mom and Dad looked really happy.

By this you mean micro analyzing his every syllable, facial expression and fragment of body language? To speculate/obsess about whether it means he is going to make the wildly implausible choice of refusing to play for us? But of course, this is CDC.

48MPHSlapShot Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Awesome to see that Quinn is wearing the C tonight! But the real question is whether or not he seems excited of meh about wearing the C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WZRD Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 At the game, crowd’s definitely behind Quinn, gets loud cheers when they announced his name for the assists. See this kid skate is something else; can’t wait to see him in the NHL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
