Abbotsford Canucks Thread | Prospects Starting to Heat Up

[Blue and Green]

They are both on the right track, it's hard to differentiate the two. If there were a callup and one of them had to play NHL minutes right now I'd pick Kudryavtsev. To me, he's the much calmer out of the two. Pettersson can have his little brain farts. Kudryavtsev is much more likely to give you a steady 14 minutes with minimal adventures at this moment, in my opinion.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if next year both of them are taking turns rotating in and out of the Canucks lineup playing some limited minutes. Much like what they are doing to the forwards this season.

I'd probably lean slightly toward Kudryavtsev, too, but the organization seems to favour Pettersson.

Seems like KK is better at handling the puck, something we need more.

Yes, he is definitely better with the puck. Pettersson's advantage is size.

A couple of ugly losses back-to-back in San Jose to end a long road trip. Final tonight was 7-4.

Wasn't able to listen to any part of the game, but sounds like Tolopilo had a tough night. They're still giving up too many goals......but that may be the by-product of a young blueline.

Okay, so only one undisciplined penalty by Klimovich. It's funny, someone had a posted a video of the game in 1991 where Pat Elynuik took a highsticking penalty that wasn't noticed by the referee but the linesman called it once play had stopped. I remembered that, and checked back through the preceding minute of play before Klimovich's 4-minute highsticking penalty. It was actually on a good backchecking effort by Klimovich as three San Jose players broke in; he hustled back and dove to thwart a pass attempt but then his stick just incidentally flew up when he hit the ice and caught the San Jose player in the face. Announcer didn't know what had happened, either.

As Bik Nizzar would say, we are pro-accountability here. I think he may have Satiar Shah using that too.

Aiden McDonough is having a good season 10 goals in 16 games. Did we let him go too soon?

Yeah, it surprses the hell out of me based on watching him last year.

I agree, they need to bring in some better forwards. With Raty in the NHL, they should really think of bringing in another scoring center and some better grittier bottom 6 forwards.

It's easy to forget but they still have Di Giuseppe, Karlsson and Blais kicking around on the shelf. Three very good wingers at the AHL level. I still think this can be a really good team if they ever get healthy. Patera and or Silovs are neccesary as well.

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

Had to settle for skimming through this one. Oh well, 4-2 on the trip and we're back home again.

Yup, a real actor, war veteran too, not one of those effeminate types you find on the big screen today.

Yes, from the era when men were men and sheep were terrified.

I mean, back in the 60s was when a women couldn't get a credit card, it was acceptable to hit women, black people got treated like second class citizens, and sexual harassment/assault was rampart, men were sent to the slaughter in Vietnam. I'd gladly live right now.

It was meant to be funny. I lived that decade and yes, in general, it’s better now in spite of the recent five years.

Just gotta launch the schoolteacher out of office. Almost vanquished the provincial commies. Get rid of Black Face Brown Face

The pendulum is swinging.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not accusing you of liking that stuff. I just feel like people have rose-colour glasses over past eras. As a graduate student, I hear some of the younger people talk like Millennials had it so easy. Just as I got told that boomers/gen-x had it easy.

The only generation I truly feel bad for is Gen Alpha, those kids are f***ed.

The bar was raised for the post boomer generations and I say that with deep regret.
At least in the developed world…
