I like Gaudette a lot. I would love someone to get Green to move him up to the top line between EP40 and Boeser while they are killing time during the end of this season. Right now they don’t have a top line LWer. Swing EP40 out there and bingo we have an excellent one. If Gaudette can hold his own against top centres and Bo can carry a second line between Jake and Baertschi/Pearson/Leivo/Russel/Goldobin they might start scoring more.

Careful UDL people are real touchy about talking about Horvat and saying anything bad about him. :o

Held scoreless past 5 games, hopefully he breaks out of his slump.
The guy has been buried for months playing the heaviest, shittiest minutes on the team.
Who do you suggest for those minutes? If the team was higher in the standings, Horvat could be in Selke discussions.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Reported to be a bruise with discomfort. He’ll take the pregame skate to see if he can manage.

This whole city is starting to like Gaudette ALOT. Great later round draft pick by Benning. I wish Gillis could have drafted well, but he didn’t. Completely hopeless at it

Quinn Hughes lost his game today so his college career is over. We should see him in Vancouver soon, though he has a bruised foot which could delay his first start.

ya, they lost 4-1. Benning will give him a day to get over the disappointment but I expect we will have news soon. Unless he decides not to sign until July. No......

Think Lockwood gets a call too.

Hughes likely takes a few days off to heal his bruised foot, get some healing/letting go of his NCAA time, then get mentally prepared for starting his NHL career.

Lockwood ATO for Utica! signs ELC in the offseason.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

Quick conversation with Hughes Family Advisor, Pat Brisson. Quinn Hughes will return to Ann Arbour with his team tonight from the Twin Cities. He and his family will have discussions later tonight.

Benning is already all over it.

Lockwood contemplating returning to NCAA for one more year. Does this mean he’s going to go UFA route?
