Putgolzin Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Nice signing. I like the look of his junior numbers growing year over year (to big-time points as an overager), then his AHL numbers doing the same...who's to say that can't continue to happen... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Management seems to be learning. Good signing. There's no "learning". Established veterans were acquired for the bottom-6 to support the young players in the top-6. As was said, once we had bottom-6 level prospects develop into NHLers (see: MacEwen, Jasek, Lind, Bailey,, etc.) they would take over those spots. 2 1 5 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sutter - buyout (free up cap to get another D) Eriksson - Utica Miller - Pettersson - Boeser Pearson - Horvat - Gaudette Motte - Hawryluk - Virtanen Roussel - Beagle - MacEwen Lind Hughes - Schmidt Edler - Myers Juolevi - ?? Benn Rafferty Not sure about Gaud or Virt in that #2RW spot though I was actually thinking the same thing the other day. I think we have all just put Gaudette on the third because he's there on the C depth chart, but based on his skillset he may actually be much better served as a W in the top 6. He's not as much of a defensive C as we thought, but doesn't get the offensive opportunities that he likely needs. This may actually fill that need nicely.

Sven has next to no chance to make the team even tho JB said he does...writing is on the wall with him unfortunately...LE should never put on a Canuck jersey EVER again, we should waive him now and let it be 1000% known that he has no spot on our NHL roster anymore, he took 4 years of a roster spot away now he can rot in the AHL don't even let him go to europe for the last 2 years. If he doesn't like that then he can do what many of CDC seem to think will happen and retire...which is laughable to me...very few people walk away from Millions of dollars even if they already have Millions in the bank! This guy could be a call up at some point, we have a ton of F and prospects like Lind, Lockwood looking for NHL ice time this coming year also. Toxic fan alert. 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekker Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Perfect. A possible right shot center with an abrasive game. I think a possible Sutter deal with some salary retained may be in the mix. Put Baertschi and LE in the minors and save a portion of their cap this year. I think we are good at forwards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Sutter being traded? He doesn't have size and doesn't produce, an extra C in Utica just in case? Just Depth. Both rosters, Canucks and Comets, will need to be filled. Seems like a Utica signing that will fill in when injuries occur, but we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kloubek Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Love the signing. People say this guy is undersized, but he certainly doesn't play like it. He's really quite similar to Motte in that regard. Nice pickup. The issue with Gaudette on the 2nd is that Green often plays that line against strong opposition lines. From what I've seen so far, I wonder if Gaudette would impede that line's 2-way game. I do, however, support moving him to wing, and appreciate another year of training and experience might lessen his deficiencies. If Ferland was healthy, he would be an option there. Just saying.

I looked on hockeyfights to see what he has done in that department, which was next to nothing when your fighting Point in the WHL and 1 AHL fight since turning pro, so that won't be something he brings to our organization Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is lots of time left for JB to sculpt that bottom 6, plus the depth that follows. I’m hoping it’s Sutter who is gone. I’m also still optimistic for a package trade consisting of players like Virtanen or Gawd + to fill that 3rd line spot with Adam Lowry. If we get Lowry and Savard, I’ll be in fan heaven.

combover Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Pointless signing. we have no bottom three forwards (Under contract) in the farm? After Six years of drafting you’d think we’d have guys that could fill this role. But if it mean the foundational sutter leaves then fantastic. if sutter stays then just another Of the many pointless Line up Plug signings. cap for JV or gaudette doesn’t look great. 1 3 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
