He will be 27 years old, and will be at a point where he will want to get paid to come to the NHL. He's had 79 games in two seasons, and 11 points. He's going to want the moon, and the NHL will be very different when he looks at coming back. He's going to stay in the KHL. He's closed the door, he just hasn't locked it. It's unfortunate as he seems to like the Canucks and follow the Canuck while still in Russia etc. Not sure what happened with the last round of negotiations however and whether he still feesls the same way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll get him back probably at the end of the KHL season.Their last regular season game is on Feb 27 2021. He'll still be 26. He'll likely sign a show me contract of 2-3 M which I think JB will do. His intention was to play here, and I still think it is. Edited August 31, 2020 by Hairy Kneel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-DLC- Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Someone put it into perspective for me. So if we'd won this one and lost the next, would we still be feeling like "it's over"? No. We'd feel that this team could fight for it. I still do. Screw Vegas. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 8 hours ago, N4ZZY said: I agree. I don't think we're coming back. Maybe they can win one more game. But that's it. They're not going to win three in a row against Vegas. I hate Vegas as much as I hate Boston. But Vegas more because they're so good too early. Goddamn it NHL - it looks bush league when you have an expansion team making it to the finals twice in three years. That's just utterly crazy. I hope Tampa Bay rips Vegas apart. GO LIGHTNING GO! If they win it all I'm gonna be sick. I'm basically on the anyone but Vegas train at this point. I hope Dallas or Colorado can knock em out so I can actually enjoy the final. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came back from a 3-1 deficit. Against Las Vegas We've overcome a 3-1 deficit before against the Blues, Jets and Flames.

Everyone jumped back on the bandwagon just in time to see them win the grey cup. A huge hill to climb, but it ain't over till it's over. There's a reason they take it one game at a time and don't look beyond that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stecher has more fight in him than Juolevi. This is *NOT* a knock against Juolevi...only highlighting that has little to do with his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Dallas or Colorado can knock em out so I can actually enjoy the final. They're arrogant fools. The way they conduct themselves does NOT look good on hockey. Bawking baby lips and instagram rants. They have to double team a rookie half the size of them and do so using some questionable tactics. They're loose cannons and on the ice they get to practice some of that at will. Reaves does little more than run around looking to play after the whistles. They do have some great players, but their MO is cocky and above the law. When they're winning, they're on top of the world and when they're losing, they start showing their desperate dirty side. Can't stand them. Not because they're beating us...because how they're beating us. Trying to take out Petey and Quinn every chance they get to try to remove them from the game rather than face them in it. Using Roussel as a deflection by riling him up and making the refs somehow miss their end of things. They're punks. I'm still not packing it in with our team yet.

If you told any fan at the beginning of the season that we would be fighting in the 2nd round of the playoffs against Vegas down 3 games to 1 everyone would take it... invaluable experience at the very minimum Biggest game of the year tomorrow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In hockey I would say it's comparable to the crease and slot area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's def gonna be a rivalry that comes of this. Is both teams didn't care for each other on the ice before, it ain't gonna be any better after this. I hope we light em up for years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
