Kid is good
- Redmile247

Same clip as McDavid was his rookie year. Kid will be a major player.

Now we just need one more pick like that...lol

Will we get to see Demko against the Oilers tomorrow, then most of your favourite prospect, Hughes, Wednesday against the Rangers?
- Reubenkincade

Will someone please get that kid a uniform????

Can you imagine what this team would look like or how this fan base would sound without him?

This thread would be shutdown 5 days a week ....

You really need to stop comparing his clip to anyone ...so many players this year seem to be scoring at a higher rate

Just be happy you have him

It is what it is fact is fact. Not many rookies move along at point per game pace bro.

Very happy we have him.

Now...the defense...

Hutton and Spooner out tonight, per Green.

Didn't say if it was injury related or not.

Brisebois was recalled, so assuming Hutton injured.

Just give it 3/4 years and you’ll be in a much better spot ...there will be 4/5 new guys on the backend and you’ll be talking about trading first rounders or prospects

Hopefully he gets into the lineup against Edmonton.
I have high hopes for him as a solid defensive defenseman, similar to Carlo in Boston, who I also think is a very good defender.

Far too many here, think a rebuild happens yesterday.

It’s not how you start it’s how you finish. We are building a dynasty, jimbo style

This current ownership/mngt group won't be waiting 3/4 years my friend.

It's playoffs next year for the teams 50th anniversary or sweeping changes.

but we got 5 years of being tooled.... i mean... retooled on the fly.

- LordHumungous

Jokes aside, maybe a little coke would help this team get out of it’s coma. We should start sampling with deadbeat Loui

Agreed.
Should have started after playoffs of 2012.

Hearing Loui is getting Press box duties tonight, that would be fantastic.

It would be a miracle. And I’d expect an apology to green from Marwood and Macky. I used to defend Loui, but I’ve been hearing he is always the first off the ice and never attends optional skates. (frank) that sleepy b!tch

Will you be holding up a sign, at tonight's game?

I could see you holding that sign up and Vantel with a sign that reads,

Thanks Alex #23, enjoy Florida.
😁
- Reubenkincade

I fully expect Alex 23 to be back next year with a new 3-4 year deal with full NMC and hopefully a clause to mentor and protect all new young Canucks like he has done in the past. We should be back on track in no time.

I keep seeing this, but it's overblown, the impact it has on a single player is still minimal.

there's been 0.33 more goals per game this season compared to McDavid's rookie 15/16 season. That's .17 more goals per game for a team.

Basically teams on average are scoring 14 more goals this season compared to then. So feel free to take out the extra 4 points EP is gonna get, he's still having a McJesus-like rookie season on a poop team
