cory40 Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 EP wants to be back. He is watching the Calder race. But it might even the race up a little if he takes a month off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, the rabid Canucks fans would watch our young guys in Abbotsford and make the drive, but that also allows for our toxic media to drive out there as well and drown them with their negativity. Best to keep them far away where they can focus on hockey. Utica is a great hockey town and they've supported our team with passion since they've been there. The Comets sweep the Marlies this weekend. The Comets hit the ice again Wednesday night when they host the Rochester Americans. Puck drop is at 7 p.m. If the Comets game sells out it will be the team’s 120th consecutive sell-out, tying the league’s record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakrami Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I think Boucher really deserves a call in front of Gaudette, Boucher is on fire on the Comets. Hopefully he still gets a second chance later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Sure is nice that we had him down in Utica to call up for just such an occasion and we didn't trade and waive away all our depth like CDC wanted to... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s going to play possessed, so he stays up for good. I watched him in Penticton, he looked possessed then.. so glad he gets a chance in the bigs. it was only a matter of time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer Canucks to have the farm team in Utica for a very long time for three reasons: easier travel and more practice time and also work on other things in gym as they do not play games for 4-5 days at a time throughout the year. If you play a back to back game in Utica and an away game to another town, then you can have a practice time the next day for next 4-5 days rather than having a back to back games then fly back home and practice two days later at a very different time zone is a killer. The call-up is an inconvenience if we happens to be at home. It is not a big deal but very beneficial if we happen to be on the road. We seem to get injuries while being on the road than at home. I would prefer Abbottsford..... get used to travel/city and the fan/media crazy. Feel more like part of the "team" a couple blocks down the road. Players would be more motivated when it's right there...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PIT (where we happen to be playing tomorrow) is pretty close to Utica FYI Makes FAR more logistical sense to keep the team out East where they're closer to more teams (both AHL and NHL), have far less travel time, more practice/training time etc. The only reason to move the team here is so they're closer for Canucks fans. It's not nothing but the other stuff FAR outweighs it IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandmaster Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I thought Sam Gagner would have been called up considering how much that guy is getting paid! Lol. I wonder where Gagner is on the debt chart for returning to the club... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Management probably isn't thrilled with story Gagner tried to spin about going on waivers. was thinking the same thing... they havent even brought that up on the radio because of all the Petterson getting slammed talk.

The D pairings often change as the game goes on to adjust to the situation but not last game. The pairings were kept intact all game long. They don't seem to want to break Edler-Tanev up so it doesn't leave a lot of options. The bottom 2 pairings are averaging less than 17min a game while Tanev is close to 23min and Edler 26min.

EternalCanuckFan Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Good to see Gaudette get a shot in EP's spot. Will be nice to see what he can do at the NHL-level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mll Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 In his post-game in Florida Green on the Baer-Horvat-Boeser line said - 'They are finding their way. It's starting to come. It's good to see' Starting Baer away from Horvat-Boeser must have been part of a plan to get that line going. He always ended up re-uniting them as the game went along.
