I really want the Canucks to take this kid in the 2nd round.

http://www.eliteprospects.../player.php?player=162926

86 points in 65 games. 26g, 60a. Plays gritty and abrasive. Great on special teams... good face off guy as well...

51 pims. Drops the gloves once in a while...

That Pisses me off. I was looking to get Joshua Norris with Van's 3rd rounder. Central scouting had him around 42 in NA.

this team is not giving up on each other...unlike some of the fanbase

Idk but whats the average age of a rookie ECHL goalie?
- Nighthawk

Wtf does that have to do with anything? He wouldn't be in the ECHL if they weren't mentoring Demko with Bachman.

Is Mason Shaw an answer for top 6C.
His midget stature tells me no.
Stats r stats & don't translate into a C in Jr is going to be an NHL C.
Could he like many other C's be converted to a top 6 winger?

What pick would that be & who do u have in mind as a pick?
- Nighthawk

I personally don't have any preference....but if JB feels he has a better chance of getting a player with a mid round 1st...and not such confidence in the second round then do the deal.

Bachman is not a mentor but is for expansion draft a availibility.
Thats wtf it has to do with anything.
Gartieg is grooming for AHL fodder at best.

Well that's really not what JB said last summer when he inked Demko.

Goldobin on third line with Gaunce and Sutter . Can't wait for the whiners to start female doging that he is not playing on the top line seeing it is his second game
- VANTEL

Period and a half and he has played more then he did last game. Team is once again winning. It's literally because of Goldy this team is winning haha i'm kidding btw.

I would have a Nucker sized meltdown and stab somebody
Edit. I'd never pull a Nucker but that's a horrible idea

Then is highly dependent on who is available & who is picking.
Maybe Glass or Valimaki or Hague idk

Kids look hungry on the PP. lots of good zone entry and a couple chances.

Demko has a goalie coach to get the bugs out.

I have no way to guess how the first round is going to play out....it's so wide open after top 5. I could see alot of guys in the 10 to 20 range being of real interest to JB though. If he has the chance on a guy he likes I'd be okay with him moving 2nds to move up

Tyler Johnson isn't bad. Smaller players are finding more spots on rosters but it will always be a question mark.

Nic Petan is the other side, not doing so great.

Fine but i don't put any value in comparisons.
Shaw is Shaw nobody else.
Let the Buttons of the world do their silly comparisons

Glad to see the usurper isn't around. He'd be happy to know I couldnt find a link for the game lol. Oh well later this week back to normal abode to watch what's left of this team. Interesting highlights. First there was Nuckerwhatever and then argue4U as admirers. Lefty must be having a field day. Oh well.

How do the left overs look?

I am not on team tank.

I hate WD.

I just want to see the youth given chances to make some mistakes and learn from them.

I still cheer wildly every time the team scores.

Dorsett is done...not coming back ....heard it here first
- Bullfrog77

The possibility of him not returning has been brought up several times over the past couple months & Carol touched on it in a blog a little while ago.

If the team wins tonight I can see Twitter melting down

Hutton is playing really well as of late.

I'm all for the youth getting opportunity bit not getting there asses handed to them.
Thats rushing them & not the way to go. Eg Leafs marinated Marner/Nylander.

Granlund looks good. The Ducks probably thought they could coast through this one.


Hell, even the AHL line looks solid.

The youth we would be using isn't 18/19 year olds.
