Woo!

 

[Canucks LB]

Just loving the production

 

[Snatcher Demko]

28 points in 21 games for Woo is quite impressive, considering that he isn't supposed to be an offensive defenseman (at least at higher levels). If he can be a physical top 4 guy who can chip in occasionally offensively that's an awesome return.

Love that Demko added an assist on maybe his last game as a Comet. Just for a cherry on top.

Woo is continuing to produce - 31 points in 30 games.

Especially after his slow start of 2 points in his first 8 games coming back from injury. He has 29 points in his last 22 games.

Impressive, I always knew he had untapped offensive potential. He may turn out to be a complete defenceman with physicality, skating, defensive awareness, and offence. I can see him translating to a Bieksa type of player producing 30-35 points a year.

Yeah but hopefully better

 

[groov2]

Yeah but hopefully better

That’s a tall task.

 

[Raistlin]

If Woo can develop into a dynamic Harmonic type presence for us in the back, it will certainly null the pain of that wiff on Juolevi.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Woo still has a year of Jrs left and probably a year in the AHL after that as well unless you honestly believe he is NHL ready just having turned 19 in July. Only the top of the top make it as NHL D-men at 19. You guys may be over the top right now if you see that as a likelihood.

Noones saying he will be nhl ready next year ya bad goalie. Just

Agree that's the likely trajectory unless he lights the league on fire in the WHL next year, in which case 2020-2021 would be a possibility.

Look at @clay's post. The more reasonable response.

The hype a few of you are diving into with WOO and projecting where he will fit into the Canucks depth chart is the same kind of over the top all of these kids get. Isn't what's going on in Utica with a big crop of high end prospects showing you anything?

Exactly.

 

[DownGoesMcDavid]

Josh Brooks will be returning to Moose Jaw after Team Canadas early exit.
This should slow down Woo's production as Brooks will return to his PP1 spot that Woo fantastically filled in for.

In other news tho, Woo should definitely start practicing his shootout moves as Moose Jaw coach Tim Hunter returns as well and we all know how he likes deploy hia shootout talent.

 

[Melvin]

Interesting.

 

[Pip]

That would have been neat as a Giants fan

 

[FroshaugFan2]

Interesting.

The Canucks would sooner assign him to the ECHL, right?

Is a lack of bodies in Utica the only reason that hasn't happened yet?

I haven't seen a wiff yet for a twenty year old who prior to getting injured was looking to take the team scoring lead.

 

[Icebreakers]

Id send him to the giants tbh lol.
