Swedish coach has just been running with 3 lines (9 forwards and 6 D-men) and has been loading those lines with his vets. They added 2 forwards and 1 D a couple of days ago after the first playoff round so I am guessing the 2 or 3 who have been sitting out are injury spares 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Googlie Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Ah. He's with the team, but not yet added to the official roster. Sweden still has a goalie and 4 skater spots available to be filled and I am assuming before they add Linus they'll wait to see who might still be available from the ousted playoff teams. Maybe they are still hoping Petey will show up. (These 3 highlighted players below are in the list I posted earlier) Sweden is playing with a short roster in the anticipation of NHLers. Having started with a minimum roster of 15 skaters and two goalies, the Swedes added yesterday forwards Nils Aman and Oskar Lang of Leksands IF and today added Skelleftea AIK defender Jonathan Pudas. Tre Kronor has now two goalies and 18 skaters and could still add one more goalie and up to four more skaters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 So can we just sign him already since it doesn’t look like he’s gonna get any games let alone even make the roster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Torts Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 This is bad treatment of a Swedish superstar in Sweden in Swedenian fashion! Play Karlsson immediately or fold the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanfor42 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 We're waiting to sign a guy who isn't on the WC roster for Sweden nor is he playing for them. He is kind of on their taxi squad...hmm. Politics I guess. Disappointing that he hasn't made their team. Get him signed and come over for camp and see how he looks. If he's not ready too bad down to Abby. I'm still hopeful he can be an NHL'er and produce for the Canucks, but this isn't the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They tend to reward the older guys. Especially guys who missed the Olympics or may be getting down to their last few chances. Karlsson is young he should get plenty of chances in the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget though, EP played in the WC at 19 and again at 20. So they will play the younger guys if they see them as really helping the team. And politics can come to play as well.

D.B Cooper Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 When he comes over next year, where does he play? Personally, whether he makes the team or not, I think a year or two in Abby should happen. Enough of rushing kids onto the team. I want him to fully develop to the best player he can be. If he is NHL ready, then a season or two playing every situation as the AHL teams top liner would only help more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of the reasons McDounnah didn't sign this spring. He was only offered a spot in Abby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeneedLumme Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 If he is good enough to make the team, they should still keep him in Abby for a year or two? Brilliant. So take 20 or 30 percent of his NHL career and keep him in the minors cashing minor league paycheques. That should certainly earn his loyalty to the team and cause other players to really want to play here. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According this senile furball^^^every player who isn't promised an NHL roster spot and is allowed to burn a year off their ELC will sign with some other team as soon as their signing rights expire. Time to panic over Karlsson because apparently every unsigned prospect shares his lack of loyalty when it comes to signing their ELC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wants to play in the NHL in the next several years he must sign with us. McDonnough has a choice. He can wait an extra couple months, after his 22/23 college season ends, and sign as a UFA eiththe team of his choosing. There is n reason why he shouldn’t see his options. Karlsson will sign with us because he has no other path to an NHL career. These are facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you're entirely talking out of your ass. Canucks retain Karlsson's rights until June 1, 2022. Give it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Warhippy Posted May 24, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 24, 2022 (edited) Every time I hear someone say or post something about "facts" "These are the facts" "Facts are" I know it's all opinion based and the most loosely used use of the actual facts as they but twisted to fit or suit a narrative. To my knowledge and as has been posted numerous times, as well as by Karlsson and his agent; he will be signing with Vancouver after the Worlds are done. I will stand by that until he signs or doesn't. McDonough, also has stated he has interest in signing but wants to finish his education which is a huge thing as it shows true character and a willingness to finish what he started.
