I'm sure he'll do the same in Abbotsford but what a kick in the ass. Too good for the minors. Maybe new management will do him a solid and trade him somewhere where he can help an NHL team. He can’t help any NHL team if he isn’t burying the chances he’s getting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post 204CanucksFan Posted October 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 22, 2022 (edited) 32 minutes ago, -Vintage Canuck- said: This is a direct result of the combination of Boudreau, just like last season, finding a 4th line that he likes and is unwilling to break up and management's inaction on the forward logjam. Joshua - Åman - Lazar is this years version of Highmore - Lammikko - Motte, which mean we have 10 forwards to fill those other 9 spots and of those 10 only Höglander, Kuzmenko and Podkolzin are waiver exempt. And, honestly, I'd rather have Höglander playing top minutes in Abby and regaining his confidence a bit and have Juulsen in the press box. This won't change until the either BB decides he is willing to break up that 4th line, or management finally move one of those 10 players to improve the defence.

Devron Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Who Evers on the ice just get us the win. Defence be better. Demko stop the puck. Miller stop throwing the puck away. Those things happen we might win. Maybe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not knocking that 4th line, again, just like last season it's a very effective line. It just means that, barring injuries, we have 10 NHL calibre forwards for 9 roster spots. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 18 minutes ago, Herberts Vasiljevs said: Agreed. Hoglander has been quite awful. 70% of offensive control on a team that can't hold a lead. Yeah, absolutely dreadful. Why would we need somebody so bad that they forecheck, regain the puck and maintain it 70% of the time they're out on the ice when we can let the other team possess it and try to score against us and get back in the game? Who needs control of the puck to win hockey games these days? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who needs control of the puck to win hockey games these days? Don’t know why the team created an analytics department if they don’t use it. Need a more progressive coach and management if we’re ever going to match the likes of Colorado and Tampa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody focuses on his first game where he couldn't bury goals, but then conveniently forget the other games where he had the highest successful high danger pass % on the team and his line mates couldn't bury their chances either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he has had some time, it beats some of the performances from others. He’s been playing with Pettersson most of the first five games lol what are you talking about? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
