Rush17 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 22 minutes ago, Canuckster86 said: How did Demko look, let in the 5 goals, but did he make some nice saves? Hoping he has a solid year and will be our #1 going forward and not have to pay Marky big bucks long term for a goalie nearing 30. My take on Jake is this: He is never going to be thin, he is built like Ovechkin. Who also happens to be a pure sniper, who hits and skates well...to this day in his 30s with the frame he has. So Jake may get more gassed then other guys and it is to be expected at the beginning of camp. The key is how quickly can he up his cardio and be than hard nosed forechecker who finishes his checks by using his speed to create mayhem...that can also snipe goals if he can pinpoint his shot more and pick those corners. I hope Jake can put it all together, but I can see why fans would be uneasy about his start. Trade him now for JP is what those people will be wanting. Jake knows our coach, he knows what to expect so he has to put that effort in and do what the coach wants. If he does he hopefully will get rewarded...if he doesn't the leash is only going to be so long, eventually all teams cut ties with players who dont seem to "get it" in the teams eyes of course. Goldy is in the same position but will be let go or moved on before Jake Demko played the first half I believe. I'm not sure who played the other half I was on the opposite side of the ice. It was Markstrom and MacIntyre for team white. I'm guessing Demko / DiPietro unless they threw Keilly in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knucklehd Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Just Marky and McIntyre on the ice with Clark and coaches right now. Doesn't look like the last group comes on till 12:45. They will mostly Utica and junior players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyHarry Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 So Jet Woo is on the A group and not on the prospect C group. i like that, even tho Jet isn’t Playing in Utica or Canucks this season it’s telling him, he is high on Canucks list of future Canucks.

Nice to hear, I hope he plays with more of an edge this year and runs more guys over and can get his shot more accurate. If its not too much to ask, when he drive to the net, hold on to the puck, get passed the goalie and flick it in the air into the empty net!

Because Jake seems like an easy going and goofy guy, and maybe doesn't have the tunnel vision desire to work like say EP, I think the coaching staff have to stay on him to make sure he's focused and motivated. He seems lime the type of kid u have to be hard on from time to time to keep him on the right path. I have zero doubts Jake wants to be good, but tough love when he falls short is sometimes needed 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Knucklehd Posted September 14, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 14, 2019 Well Olli seems fine. I don't see anything that can cause worries about his rehab. Skating well, turning equally well. Good acceleration. Doesn't seem to be favoring any kind of movement. Has taken some knocks too. 3 2 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
