Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.
I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

He's highly skilled, he should be a decent scoring winger.

Re: Canucks Young Guns
Krutov was a bit homesick, but I think he intended to fulfill his contract though. He was able to buy a lot of hotdogs with what he was making here.
Don't count on it. *hehe* Wow, u had time to count all my words and look for my 4 abbreviations? Also, I have lots of lady friends, from the English dept. and all over.Puck wrote: ↑Tue Jul 31, 2018 8:36 am ...but more importantly, is it just me, or is Wee Todd turning a new leaf? In a 196 word post he managed to use actual words for all but four. He also used full names for players at least six times. Do you have a new girlfriend from the English department, Todd?

Re: Canucks Young Guns
Heres a breakdown and comparison of Brock Boeser and how he looks against his peers. The closest comparison being Patrik Laine...not too shabby.
Home runs on 23rd overall picks make up for losing lotteries!
https://www.tsn.ca/expect-boeser-to-be ... 1.1150440
On the Laine point – I think he is clearly a top-end comparison for Boeser, even at the age of 20. Laine’s been able to put together two ridiculous opening seasons on top of his pre-NHL draft production, and I think we have relatively much more confidence today in Laine being a star than Boeser.
...
I’m pretty convinced Boeser, one year in, is going to be a major impact player in the NHL. It’s awfully difficult to have that level of production in a rookie season (on a bad team), and these seasons tend to be very indicative of future performance. His statistical comparables last season only strengthen my confidence.
A little talking out of his ass but looking at the 2 charts is interesting

Re: Canucks Young Guns
This kind of ranking depends a lot on who you call a prospect. I mean, is Dahlin really a prospect? Like McDavid, everyone expects him to step right into the NHL on Day 1.Reefer2 wrote: ↑Fri Aug 03, 2018 1:07 pm Canucks with the 3rd best ranked group of prospects.

Re: Canucks Young Guns
Should we try for Jack? What would it take?
Our history of brothers might push me there.... Horvat? Juloivie? What?? Our first plus++

Re: Canucks Young Guns
Not a chance in hell I would gut the team for something that could almost be called, gimmicky.
To come this far, "painfully" at times, and do that?
If it falls to us, fine.
Not convinced the league will travel very far down the road on the small and speedy path.
Besides, the brother thing can get old.

Re: Canucks Young Guns
With us sliding DOWN the draft order EVERY YEAR, what's the point of tanking?? we wont win anyway..
If we get lucky, we get lucky.
If we end up in 31st at the end of the year, Benning probably gets canned and then who do we trust to pick for us at #2??

Is Juolevi out for a few months with a back injury?
The only HW the Canucks need
Re: Canucks Young Guns
A day old. Seems OK. We'll see.
