DeNiro Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Weisbrod went to Harvard. Was there ever any doubt they were gonna claim him? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might make it more surprising that we did claim Vesey. Weisbrod seems like one of those Crimson alums who loves to tell everyone “I went to Harvard.” Those guys tend not to like having someone else around who can make the same claim. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once Nedeljkovic cleared they waived Forsberg the next day who was then claimed by Winnipeg (because they had just lost Comrie). I think it would have been worth it to claim Nedeljkovic, even if we carried 3 goalies... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I'm aware, it would mean LE would get more real $$$ as it would not be subject to Escrow. Don't think Aquilini wants to lose more $$ than necessary. It’s unbelievable isn’t it? LE has is a cancer extraordinaire 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green tended to lean on his vets on the Comets as well. He doesn't have the job security as Jim Benning so it's hard to blame him for wanting to protect his job leaning on vets for the Canucks as well.

Or how about the Canucks have 5 injured forwards where they almost had to dress a D as F last game, and quarantine rules don't make make call ups any easier. That other stuff....

Bure_Pavel Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Great player in college was very highly regarded prospect but has underwhelmed in the NHL so far, at least has way more skill than Virtanen and the rest of of bottom six "grinders".

Dr. Crossbar Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Saw this earlier and I'm happy with it. At least JB's trying to get something going. Hopefully it's the spark we need and Vesey needs, and it turns into something unexpectedly good. Looking to Vesey for timely offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabychStache Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 This helps with dealing Pearson or Sutter at the deadline. I don't see Vesey as a long term fit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd assign Eriksson to Utica, and keep Michaelis on the taxi squad....for two reasons - one is cap, the other is to encourage LE to retire. Just make Eriksson go through the gruesome school bus rides and hotdog lunches with Utica and see if he'll retire??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
