It just seems like there’s a lot of toughness on that club., and a focus for them. I would say so, Alf. Not necessarily fighting tough, but hard to play against as well. Ryan Johnson seems to be building a Calder Cup contender here with these signings. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will certainly draw more local interest as fans, but going forward with BC born players. Alex is a real solid Dman. He sticks to a simple game and consistently makes the plays in front of him. Not fancy, just solid. With the two Giants now, I guess I'll be taking in some games in Abby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucksownyou Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 So, for the guys who don't make the AHL, where do we send them as for as the ECHL is concerned? Do we have an affiliation team there this season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Silovs is eligible to return to the Barrie Colts, so I wouldn't be shocked if he goes back there for a full season as the starter but I'm not entirely sure what the rules are. He'd be an Overager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be an overager and an import draft pick would make it difficult to git him in. However, I don't know Barrie's situation so it may be okay.

Their blueline is stacked with Hunt, Keeper, Bowey, Sautner, Burroughs and Brisebois and Woo. I hope Woo is good enough to outcompete guys like Bowey and Sautner for ice time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keppen was pretty hyped when we drafted him but seems to not progress as hoped. Good show me contract to see if he can take his game to a pro level without using a contract spot on the big club. Hopefully there will be a way we can watch these games on tv/stream. Pretty excited for the Baby Canucks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Glad they are giving Keppen another look. Thought he had a really rough draw getting hurt in his D+1 year and then basically getting no playing time in his D+2 year to prove himself. This is a very smart bet and great signing. Lots of CHL based signings with Nielsen, Kannok-Leipert, Keppen, and Wouters on AHL deals. For a while had thought the Canucks were pretty bad at developing CHL prospects, but this is a great way to farm that league as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First year out long term with an injury and then Covid and all its issues toasted his 2nd year. Basically 2 years with out much ice time. Hope he works really hard this off season and has a good showing in Abby. Edited August 21, 2021 by Kootenay Gold 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
