I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a look at PP1 right away there, in a spot that's been a major problem for Minnesota for several years.

II would bet almost no money that Jiricek is going to take that job way from Faber (he wasn't even PP2 for CBJ and their man advantage is worse than the wilds') and once Biuim gets there, forget about it.

Adam Gaudette thriving under the same coach that many here claimed,ruined his development.

Gaudette more victim of Benning. Not ready for the nhl when he left college. Needed time to work on his game as his defensive game was weak and his offensive game would not offset bad defense.

But due to a lack of C depth, he got rushed into the nhl.

I don’t understand the point of this article I was expecting to see the roster. Who cares if it’s finalized if I can’t see it it.

He still sucks he is just shooting 40%, highest in the NHL.

Gaudette has 12 goals lmao

Matheson is such garbage. Directly responsible for three goals against and almost a couple more and the games only half over.

Idk if MSL lasts the week (month,year) let alone the rest of the season, I think the habs roster is trash but every game looks like a fire drill, bleeding chances constantly.

Matheson and Savard were their 2 veteran Dmen in a sea of kids.
Guhle had 114 games, then Barron in the 90's, X in the 80's, Struble under 40, Hutson, Mailloux raw rookies.

Just a terrible job of the GM Hughes for not doing something to bolster the blueline to help the kids develop. Guess he figured those who had some experience were just going to get better without a good partner to play with.

Sounds like Van gets to see Jiricek vs Minny.

Hughes has basically caught up to Makar in D points, only 4 back with 2 less games played.

We played Gaudette full time when he was as small and weak as Lekk is right now. It ruined his development as a player.

It’s why I’m happy Lekk is down in the AHL right now developing the right way. You give guys like this a taste, let them see where they’re lacking, then send them back down.

Really happy with how the Canucks have worked on developing guys like Sasson, Bains, Lekk, Raty, etc. Reminds me of how we used to do things with the Moose.

Chicago Bedards lost again, at least Bedard himself caught a goal and an assist.

So putting a fresh rookie with a bunch of utterly useless players backed by a despicable shit stain of an organization is not working out? Definitely didn't see that coming.

Still waiting on an everyday nhl roster guy to make it full time from the A. Hopefully Raty and Lekky do that.

Benning and co, no adoption for sports science. Guy had bloodwork done and as a result had to adjust his diet to put on and maintain weight.
