There's always somewhere lower..... [cough... calpuck... cough]

I'm glad we could have this talk, now get back out there and earn your ice time!

Soooooo.... she's a well-seasoned vet with a lot of games under her belt???

Hank, I think he's just questioning your will and skill as a two-way player. They all say that's how you get into the bigs.

Good info.
Zhukenov is making things interesting. huge improvement in the playoffs.
He's already 20 years old so pretty sure that's going to be: The NHL Canucks or the KHL. Wagers ?

I think Juolevi played 45 minutes that last game lol.
Now to add some muscle Olli. will have over 4 months this year to prepare for camp, same with Virtanen.

Zhukenov late bloomer, did pretty good in playoffs.

Today last Canucks prospect in QMJHL playoffs saw season end.

In 17GP with Chicoutimi, Dmitry Zhukenov had 6G,15A, tied-3rd in league PTS.

Last I heard he'll be going to Russia to play and will return once he's ready, likely in a couple years.

Probably we get both Russians back Zhuke, Tryamkin in the year 2019 aha, could add A. Svechnikov too? aye.

Adam Gaudette has that goal scorers goal shot...ever lethal, & has some Datsyukian dangles a bit as well.

One thing I noticed after watching some Gaudette and Goldolbin highlights, they both seem to really luv to score. They do the fist pumping thing a lot. Hopefully it'll be something that carries over to the NHL lvl. Chances are Goldolbin will stick with us next season, I'd like to see him get some looks in the shootouts.

Yup they love to score just like that guy in my avi.

Gaudette I can't wait till he signs hopefully next year!

I'm hoping we acquire someone to play with Goldy like another Russian, how about we sign Yakupov for cheap? A one year $800k performance laden contract should suffice if the Blues let him walk.

Yakupov - Sutter - Goldy.

What do the Canucks have to lose? Team can afford to experiment at this point. & Yak would probably love to stick it to edmonton, so there's some motivation ha.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind giving Yakupov a shot. JB should just stay away from high priced free agents that have high salary + term (ie: Erikkson). Just go for guys who had a bad year, are cheap, low term and are young enough to have a bounce back year, so we can potentially flip them for a pick at the deadline. A guy like Yakupov would fit the bill if he's available for cheap.

You wanna talk about a brainless player. Would love to see Yakupov and Booth play chess against each other, the comedy would be top notch
