aGENT Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) Nice. Glad to see all the panicky Pollyanna's wrong about Juulsen extending as well. Edited July 1, 2022 by aGENT 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Me_ Posted July 1, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 1, 2022 Great news! Rathbone on a one way contract. What a show of confidence that is. Juulsen and Lockwood stay in the system. Good day at Canucks. 8 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 One way for Rathbone is interesting but he deserves to be in the team and amongst the rotation, deserves 30-40 games on the bottom pairing but may well get some more if Hughes or OEL get injured. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Hogs & Podz Posted July 1, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 1, 2022 I've been very happy with the management's choices so far. Really happy they see, like most of us here, that Rathbone deserves a real shot with the big club. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post -AJ- Posted July 1, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 1, 2022 The one-way for Rathbone probably indicates that the team is hoping he can be an NHL guy soon. I really do hope his all around game is polished enough to play a bottom pairing role now. Also glad that Juulsen and Lockwood are back, as both are NHL depth and huge pieces of Abby when not in Vancouver. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoosh Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Nice. Rathbone was obvious but nice to see that the team has faith in Juulsen and Lockwood too. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post NUCKER67 Posted July 1, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 1, 2022 Happy with these signings, and pleasantly surprised Juulsen is also re-signed. I thought he played really well, has size, a right-shot. 7 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qwijibo Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Good signings. I actually thought Juulsen would wait and see if he got interest from any other teams for a better shot at playing in the NHL. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N4ZZY Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Glad to see that Juulsen was resigned. He’s a good depth RHD for the team. Can spot duty when there’s injuries. Rathbone I think makes the club this season, if he doesn’t, won’t the team not be able to send him down without waivers? Could probably be claimed by another team easily. Where does Rathbone slot in?

I’m pretty sure Bone can be yo yoed for one more season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

($1.5 million for a healthy scratch is pricey, and unless Myers moves I don't see him in the top-6). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EB43 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 So Rathbone is either on the ice or in the pressbox? Sending him down requires waivers and therefor we lose him, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
