Gurn Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Well Kuzma thought Jake was looking good, so whatever goals Green had set, if they were fitness related, can't be that far off from reaching. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s that simple. Yup, Podkolzin is on the horizon. And he looks like he'll be better than Jake. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey God Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 I have a feeling that Jake may be taking the hit for Loui when all is said and done, with a ticket to Utica being the reward. Easier to bury the young guy still learning what it takes to make it in the big league (accountability and responsibility among other things) than the vet who "may" get back on track (is that an oink I hear in the sky above me?). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except that a total of approx. 30 teams would be willing to take a chance and pick Jake off waivers, while precisely 0 would take Eriksson. 1 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's guys that have done much more than Jay has to deserve it. Here's to hoping he actually has a good season... But so far he's done almost nothing as a Canuck. This is the world's most iconic sporting franchise, u can't just hand out letters. Bo Edler Brock Petey are guys that deserve letters.

The coaches found out... so they got everyone to eat a big breakfast. Then bag-skated us till just about everyone had puked.

Get the big guy fire up and make him work for.it. Alot folks jumping on Jake. Fair enough. Don't think for one moment he is getting waived. Sooner or later he could be dealt for a player in a similar situation. Risto for JV anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred65 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 I can forgive Juolevi if his knee is not ready or a set back, but Virtanen no excuses. Being close to ready means squat. Remember the Sedins at every camp up at or top of the physical preparedness. Virtanen sad to say just doesn't have the intellect to understand his position. Jake, close only counts in hand grenades and horse shoes. Not passing the physical mean you simply didn't apply your self to the task. There are no excuses no consolation prises like I'm close. Sad about Juolevi but this is not looking good for his long term career 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayinblack Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 I didnt see anywhere that said he didnt pass the physical. Green set a specific individual goal for JV which he fell short of (big difference). My work has 100% target levels and 150% bonus target level... passing the physical would be the first and Green's goal for him would be beyond that.

Cap be screwed Someone would take Sutter off our hands. LE needs to retire or produce. I would take either atm. Not advocating a deal, but having two players with the pedigree of JV and Risto, they could both use a change of scenery in some ways. Deals like that happen all the time.

stawns Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Sure a lot of people jumping ng on Virtanen who didn't actually see him in practice. All I know is he looked in good shape in the golfing video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
