Congrats to Connauton for carving out a decent NHL career, has made over 7.5m and as mentioned is a former Canuck The rumour is that they made him do a bag skate during practice. I kid! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like the Canucks roster is THAT deep either else our former GM & coach wouldn't have gotten fired. Not being able to crack the Canucks roster in 2011 is quite a bit different than in 2021 imho. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And has played only one game with the Panthers AHL team in Charlotte. Meanwhile Juulsen has gotten healthy and has played in 17 games with Abbotsford and potted a goal and is only a -1. Also Lammikko has played his depth gritty fourth liner role very well for us and has provided energy. We won the trade. Juolevi has a massive hill in front of him to even be a bottom pairing NHL D-man and he’s likely Europe bound soon. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awalk Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 How many times has Connauton been put on waivers in his career? Pretty impressed he's still in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was Kyle Weelwood’esque in the physical department… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westcoastcanucks777 Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Hope we don’t sad when he gets afew points ..all though lots of different stand-in types could get points on that squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilya Mikheyev Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Both Lammikko and Nash have played wing in the past and Motte can play LW or RW well. I wouldn't be against a Riley Nash claim and then waive Chiasson. At the same time, I think Will Lockwood should be given a look at 4th line RW. He's back in the swing of things in Abby and in training camp he looked as good as anyone, plus he would match Motte's speed, and no one would necessarily have to be waived when Highmore comes back, Lockwood being waiver ineligible.
