I'd be surprised if he ever plays a game at the NHL level. I hope he's Tanev but.......

I doubt we see him play for the canucks before he turns 22 though.

If he turns out to be a solid 5-6 i'm even fine with that, I just want some prospects that van drafts to make it at some time.

Virtanens gameā€¦. a sign of maturity? different line mates? Different role on the team? Wondering what could be the reason why he is the Assist guy instead of goal scorer.

Yeah Benning was probably shaking his head like what kind of idiot GM (Gillis) signs an undrafted player the year of his draft who wasn't listed on any scouting lists.



NO GM does that, give him a few years and hope you can sign him if he turns out decent.

Gillis Loved his diamonds in the rough.

I really don't understand this view. A prospect is a prospect

I didn't really understand what he was saying in the first place but I think he was meaning wasting a prospect on an overager that can be given a tryout instead.

That show had some fierce symbolism going on. Everything from outfits to language to music to gestures...work of art.

The Wire is still by far my fav though
Oz a close second along with band of bros and Generation Kill.

- Whiskey-Tango


The Wire is the best hands down. You guys should also check House of Cards!

Luckily I won't lose sleep over it. I work in a call centre so if I can handle that these guys are nothing. But it was reading posts by people who obviously have an IQ below 80 that made me decide to start an account.

Yeah and teams are limited to 50 contracts, and he signs a player who played 2 games his entire draft year to an entry level deal.

Interesting lil tidbit for you: Breaking Bad has 62 episodes. The 62nd element on the periodic table is Samarium, which is used to treat lung cancer.
- PetrolSexual

Have you seen the Marty Robbins video of El Paso regarding walt and breaking bad?

The Last episode was called Felina, And the video mash-up is phenomenal.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V106RGMPcHQ

This song featured in the finale is about a girl called Felina.

The writing of this show was so genius I cant fathom it.

Better Call Saul is hopefully a winner. Vince Gilligan is officially a legend in my books.

Aswell as Bryan Cranston.

So. How many did Morgan Reilly play. Maybe nobody should have kept him either.

He is built like a brick shlt house though.

Has an assist tonight. 31 pts on the season. Didn't realize he had that many points this yr

- Bieksa#3

Reminds me of Cederholm and I would be surprised if he ever made it either.

Maybe we should start signing even more undrafted players just somebody else doesn't sign them.

I actually watched the Kingston game last night, also seen him in highlights this season. He reminds me a lot of Tanev but more physical is his own end. Nothing flashy but gets the job done. Could turn out to be a good 3-4 D for the canucks. He has been progressing each year.
- manvanfan


I think he'll have a hard time making a 3-4 dman in the AHL.
