Popular Post CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted December 13, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted December 13, 2019 Breezer has been really really good for the Comets. He is playing with Brogan Rafferty, but before people assume he is getting carried, he really isn't. He has been Rafferty's partner all season and has provided a really balanced defensive game to Rafferty's puck moving and aggressive offensive game. Breezer really does remind me a lot of Brent Sopel/Mattias Ohlund super steady and reliable dman. Canucks going to have some tough decisions this coming year and next summer should guys like Brisebois, Rafferty, and Juoelvi continue to elevate their play in Utica. 2 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Solid season with the Comets. 11 points for a defensive d-man, or at least that was the book I had on him in Junior. He had 11 points in 49 games last season. So he is getting better and better at least in point production. Would like to see him slot in at some point.

VegasCanuck Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 My personal take on this is, the Canucks want to have someone around as a 7th D, and they are mixing it up so that different guys are getting rewarded, and the benefit of some time with the main team and better overall training staff. Unless someone else goes down to injury, my guess would be that in a couple of weeks, Brisebois gets returned back to the Comets and Rafferty gets called up for some time up here. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Tanev-like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Breezer's a guy the Canucks seem to be high on, I'd be surprised if they don't get him into a game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always liked this pick a lot. With you on this Jimmy, I’ve been looking forward to seeing him a little more with us this year. He is one of those players whose curve is gradual but steady and heading in the right direction. GB bought into the process of development That JB is establishing here, and GB is making the best of it. With the right partner GB will look solid.

J.I.A.H.N Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 So, next year, you may have 4 defenseman ready for graduation...….. Brisebois, Chatfield, Rafferty, Juolevi So, in the big picture, Benning needs to know which ones to keep He needs to know who which ones to keep......before the TDL But still it's on going, through out the season, for the same reason 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB preeching paitence, and development and less emphasis on an 18-19-20 yr old being instantly NHL ready by just adding water and stirring. Not a bad thing to have a great interest in College players in men’s bodies already.. Considering, it seems Dahlen felt privileged to be in the NHL asap, is it any real wonder why he didn’t work out? I appreciate a true “farm” system, nice to have players who appreciate it even more. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brisebois was mostly paired with Rafferty - which probably helped Brisebois’ offence (and Rafferty’s defence). Brisebois is a bog, strong guy, a good skater, and reads the game well. He doesn’t walked, but then he also doesn’t make the great passes that Rafferty and Juolevi do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that neither will play so instead of having one guy sitting idle for a month, they’d rather break it up and also reward multiple guys with the NHL paycheque Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
