Nucker 67 Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 They have McDonough listed as a C? I thought he was strictly a LW? If so, could Aiden become that #3C the Canucks need? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be nice if he can play center or at least develop into one but my guess is he starts on the wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kootenay Gold Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 If he does play this year it will be with Abby on an ATO as his contract does not kick in till the 23-24 season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
250Integra Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Why 2 years and not 3? I assume the max he could sign was 2 based on his age? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EternalCanuckFan Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Great news that this is confirmed. Can McDonough play in the AHL playoffs? I assume not because he was not on the roster at the deadline. I assume he will get some games down the stretch though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stawns Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 17 minutes ago, HKSR said: Glad to see he's officially signed. I think many of us were worried he might take off considering how things have turned out with his buddy Rathbone here. I guess the reality is it is actually pretty rare for college draft picks to abandon their team. We just take notice of the ones that do, when in reality the majority of the players sign on with the team that drafted them. ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Never seen an ELC get signed that starts next season. So he won't be playing for the big team this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, covid had an impact on it, but at one time thought to be a sure fire top 4 LHD, he likely has a huge uphill battle in front of him to get anywhere near a top 4 defence role in this league now. He turns 24 in 2 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if he can sign a PTO with Vancouver for the balance of this season? @mllDo you have any input on how this could work? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He turns 24 in 2 months. he's playing very well in Abby and I'm not sure why that would have anything to do with AM signing. Are you implying that the Canucks have somehow botched JR's development?
