Recalled/Assigned: Canucks recall F Adam Gaudette

[PuckMunchkin]

Looking at that play doesn’t refute anything I said.

Then you are missing a key detail.

Go ahead and enlighten me then, not a problem, I was wrong once before.

Mathesons WWE finisher isnt just a choke slam.

Its a f***in Can Opener Choke Slam of Death. (he has his stick between EPs legs, there is no way for EP to stay up)

 

[StreetHawk]

Would have preferred to have left Gaudette alone, but the team needs a centre. Who else are you going to call up? Tanner Kero?

If they are looking for scoring help them gaudette is the guy. If we’re replacing only Beagle then Gaunce would make more sense.

That’s pretty obvious and I wasn’t even disputing that. My point was that had that happened to a 200# player, there’s a good chance he walks away from that.

Im having the weirdear discussions lately related to EPs noncussion...

 

[Dr Good Vibes]

I have limited expectations for Gaudette. He's got some things going for him like his willingness to play in dirty areas, and his battle for pucks. I like how he drives the net. I still think he needs to get a little fleeter of foot to be a really effective player. At times he gets left behind the play a little bit. He also needs to make better decisions with the puck. I wonder who they line up on his wings? I think Goldobin would be a good fit with him.

I'm not expecting him to come in and do amazing, but I hope he proves me wrong.

Weird...

Why aim so low, when his true potential is Gretzky.

Had I decided to go further with that, comparing him to Gretzky was next.

What am I talking about, it would have been a crime to compare Gaudette to Gretzky. Gaudette has >100 goal potential, I swear.

Well, trouba did a pro wrestling finisher on woegle on Sunday. There’s a thread in the Nhl board. Not the same uproar had it been necas, Svechnikov, or aho.

Should warrant a review from dops.

That’s who it goes. Wilson’s hit on sundqvist would have even more uproar had it been swartz on the receiving end.

 

[nucks88]

Geez I hope no one drop kicks him or hits him with a chair.

Practice saw him centring the SECOND line between Goldobin and Eriksson

Also centring the SECOND PP Unit

Ill be wearing my Gaudette jersey tomorrow for GAME DAY!!

Right. I as well hope these things dont happen to him?

 

[valkynax]

Not expecting much out of AG, just hopes that he gets the most out of the opportunity and learn as much as possible from however many games he'll play.

Cant tell if serious or not...

 

[valkynax]

I mean compared with what EP40.

Don't think AG could match that - very few players could.

 

[iceburg]

Knew this was going to be a blessing in disguise. Hate that Pettersson is hurt (especially head injury). Love that Gaudette gets a chance. Pettersson, Horvat, Gaudette down the middle make this team worth watching for the next decade.

 

[DL44]

77-88-21 essentially becomes our 4th line now (in terms of ice time) depending on how well Granlund and Motte carry their line's responsibilities.

If Gaudette can quickly find some chemistry and manages to stay on the right side of the puck to the point his line can earn more ice than Schaller-Granny-Motte... it will bode well for us..

I expect Granlund and Gaudette to interchange quite a bit next game.

 

[stampedingviking]

Within a year at worst he will be our 2C so theres that

Ahead of Pettersson or Horvat? No he won't.

 

[kanuck87]

Ahead of Pettersson or Horvat? No he won't.

If only you've seen some of his future projections for Gaudette. I recall some 90-point seasons in there.

 

[Zombotron]

So there's that, bubarinorusskie

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

right on bubster

Why are you imposing such limitations on him? I expect him to score his first of the year last week.
