Alflives Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 7 minutes ago, Rick Blight said: Michaelis is a very interesting prospect in his own right and has scored at basically every level. Starting in the German minor hockey system he was a star with Mannheim’s junior program before coming over to North America and producing in both the NAHL and USHL. Jumping to the college level didn’t slow him down, as Michaelis scored 36 points in 39 games as a freshman. His 162 points in 148 games for Minnesota State actually put him second on the school’s all-time scoring list, while his 71 goals put him first. Not only can he score at even-strength and on the powerplay, but Michaelis also set a school record with ten career shorthanded goals. https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/vancouver-canucks I guess you never really now what a guy can do until he gets a shot. Burr was older, and he was great. Maybe this guy, even though he’s older, can be great fir us too? Do we still have contracts left to sign Rathbone and Tryamkin?

Do we still have contracts left to sign Rathbone and Tryamkin? yes because they'll all start July 1 when we'll also shed a bunch of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big difference IMO between a guy who is 20 and one who is 25. Physically this new guy is a man. Sounds like a Utica guy, but you never know. If we’re lucky he’s a Burr. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Great 8 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 I like this signing. This guy has put up very good numbers over the last 4 years in college. He had more 13 more points in his first year of college than Lockwood had in his last.. Given that he’s played 4 years he’s got tons of experience and he’s been very consistent. Really solid signing IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this guy, even though he’s older, can be great fir us too? Do we still have contracts left to sign Rathbone and Tryamkin? We currently only have about 30 players under contract for the 2020/21 season, including today's two signings, so we are fine right now. The 50-contract limit has an interesting distinction in that the limit pertains to the season(s) for which a contract is valid. All NHL player contracts expire on June 30. The year varies from contract to contract, but the day remains the same (as we’ll discuss more when we look at player contracts in later editions of the feature). Knowing it has expiring contracts coming off its 50-contract maximum, a team can sign players to contracts for the following season. By doing so a team may have more than 50 different players signed to valid SPCs, as long as 50 or fewer are signed to valid SPCs for that current season AND fewer than 50 SPCs on tap for the upcoming season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil_314 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 (edited) Seems like a guy with a sneaky good shot, smart and shifty (knows how to find the open spots in coverage); wonder if he could be a poor, poor man's version of J.T. Miller seeing how he's such a Swiss Army knife guy? Edited March 19, 2020 by Phil_314 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 From the numbers, this should be a good signing. Only concern of his size, if he is over 6 ft and over 200 lbs. that will be perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trebreh Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 He will be 25 by the time he suits up for us. looking at his stats, he's gotten better each year in college. I think he will be Beagle's direct competition for the 4th line C next season. Michaelis has more offence and playmaking ability than Beags and plays a 2-way game too AND he can play PK according to JB. Lockwood - Michaelis - MacEwen could be a good 'modern' 4th line with speed and skill. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
