Jet Woo is scoring at the same rate as Adam Boqvist, an offensive Dman who was taken in the top 10 in the same draft and who is being highly praised right now, in the same OHL league. That and Jet Woo brings intangibles to the table that Boqvist doesnt. Time will tell but I think he's tracking to be another homerun pick.
Right because we haven't heard that before.. Lind soooo much better then Glass..
How about we let these prospects develop before hyping them up so much.. On that note.. Where are all these previous home run picks? I'm confused... Because the Canucks certainly don't have any in the their system..
Oh dear god. Pettersson and Boeser yes the rest is not very good, or has proved nothing yet.Demko Tryamkin Boeser Gaudette Pettersson Madden Hughes Woo but who’s counting?
Tryamkin is a regular NHLer? Demko? Gaudette? Madden? Hughes? Woo?Demko Tryamkin Boeser Gaudette Pettersson Madden Hughes Woo but who’s counting?
We have become a top 5 drafting team over the last 4 years and look to be trending only upwards with the tragectory of our last Draft.
Hughes/Woo/Madden are all progressing at an insane rate especially the last two with the numbers they put up during their draft year.
Clearly we have a talent for projections on our scouting team and are hitting homeruns left, right and Center.
Pettersson was not the clear choice and was projected to go after we picked. Very impressive!
I seem to recall everyone announcing home run picks after the D+1 season for Lind and Gadjovich. I wouldn't count our eggs yet for the '18 picks.

I think Utica is doing the best they can to balance developing with winning. From my outside perspective, the team had too many prospects on the wing and too few centers to play. At one point, they had what, 12 wingers? Only 8 can play and given how poorly some had shown early (Lind, Gadjovich, Palmu), they weren't really earning much of anything.JD Burke taking a run at the Utica comets and their development and Culls deployment today. Basically calling it out as a failure that has produced in his words only Nikolay Goldobin and is making a mockery of Jasek Lind and Gadjovich's ice time and deployment
i dont get the Athletic but i heard his interview and i'm struggling to wrap my head around what the hell he is talking about? I can see some of Culls decisions to doll out ice although it does seem like a meritocracy for the most part and i would rather see our prospects earn their ice than not. For sure they should go elsewhere though if they arent good enough to play but if they are on a program to practice and play a little while getting gym time to get stronger i would prefer that then playing in a junk league?
Baertschi Markstrom Biega Virtanen Goldobin Demko.... all came through Utica
Gaudette Gaunce Brisebois MacEwen Dahlen Lind Sautner Chatfield ...developing
Stecher Motte Hutton.....were slated for Utica but made the Canucks
Thoughts?
Homeruns? Homeruns?????
Throwback to when Gadjovich and Lind were homeruns. Fun days those were.

so you dont think they're doing a good job then?Games with Utica:
Baertschi - 15
Markstrom - 34
Virtanen - 67 (and it didn't seem to do anything)
Goldobin - 33 (already shown to be too good for the AHL before Utica)
There is a difference between a player developing in Utica, and just playing in Utica. The above are not attributed to Green's developmental expertise.
Demko, sure. All the other players mentioned, sure but it's not looking good for a lot them at this moment.
Agree, all these Comets talks from the Vancouver main stream media are nothing but BS to meMy thoughts are that anything written about the Comets outside of BadGoalie, UticaHockey, and orcatown is just noise. Just "call up Jordan Subban!" level takes.
