Hogs & Podz Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 On 11/12/2020 at 5:04 PM, Outsiders said: I can't wait for Podz to get over to Vancouver. Miller-Pettersson-Podkolzin I think this line could be incredible. JT is so good at retrieving pucks and winning battles it is perfect for Podkolzin to play along side him. Pod does this very well and has enough skills and IQ to play along side Petey. Could be a great puck possession line. Then after this season Hoglander-Horvat-Boeser The HoBo line!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had no idea either but Pods is just warming up for lift off, too much drive to fail I think, he just keeps getting better even with crappy ice time but finally getting his shot was inevitable, too smart and skilled to be kept out of it, I'm liking the potential of this team and with Pods we're one big step closer, the kid is slick! With better linemates and ice time since his draft Day we'd be even more stoked about him since I'm sure his numbers would be a lot better... I still can hardly believe we got him...

I feel the same iceman,. time to grow up, stand and account for something.. even then, I think Podz is going to make Jake expendable,. Hopefully for at least a 2nd rnd pick. In a perfect world , I see Podz exploding on our team the first opportunity he gets.. the kid is all hammer and nails,. Jake is still playing in a sandbox. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok kidding but since his outing at the tourney I expect he'll see more ice team but who knows, it's not like he's not coming to North America soon.. think it depends a lot of how the team does, as in, are they winning without him on the ice anyway? Haven't looked at their stats but he's going full out now and won't be disregarded easily... Like it when your draft pick does that despite being buried.. Wtg Pods! F them!

Linden Vey isn’t an NHL player but since he’s been in the KHL he’s always top 3 on his team in points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred65 Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Comments re Podkolzn in Sortsnet Quote Dan Marr, director of NHL Central Scouting Vasili Podkolzin -- Vancouver Canucks Another standout for Russia at the Karjala Cup, the 10th pick in the 2019 NHL Draft captained the young squad to victory and led the tournament in scoring with five points in three games. Despite his recent success, the 19-year-old hasn’t had the breakout many expected from his second KHL season. He has four points in 19 contests and he’s averaging just 11:58 in ice time per game on a deep SKA St. Petersburg team. While the powerful two-way winger has the tools to become a good NHL player, Pechonkin says he needs to work on his skating and he has questions about his maturity after seeing him sulk when he was benched for the third period of a game against Avangard Omsk in September. “He was just sitting there and didn't even watch the game,” said Pechonkin. “You have to control your emotions, control your feelings in a way and still be with the team,” he continued.

Not assuming anything of the sort. Simply pointing out that the author of that article states that Podkolzin, with 6 points in 21 games 'hasn't had the breakout many expected from his second KHL season' but Amirov with 6 points in 19 games 'has continued to open eyes'. Both are strong, legitimate prospects in their own right with strengths and weaknesses but both have essentially the same production in the same league and one is praised and the other is criticized. To me this demonstrates bias. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
