Prospects Development Camp

[Love]

Boeser's shot is just sick.

The more I see him the more I think he's kind of a James Neal type more than a Patrick Sharp/Kyle Okposo type.

Admittedly I haven't seen enough to know for sure, but Im not certain he has the skating ability of Sharp/Okposo.

Assuming that 2nd goal by Boeser was the goal that people here who were at the camp were commenting about...

Definitely a very nice shot and a good looking goal for the new kid! Impressive.

Also starting to understand the positive comments about Stewart from the camp attendees as he didn't look bad in what I saw of him in that 3v3.

Wish there were more videos though.

1:00 min. Who is that guy? Sick hands

 

[canwincup]

Boeser has an unreal shot wow

 

[Icebreakers]

lol Stewart looking like a real sniper in these videos.

 

[Icebreakers]

Boeser be looking like Iginla in these clips .

Boeser has an unreal shot wow

Man, if Virtanen, Boeser, and McCann all develop, it will be a dream to have some one-shot scorers on the Canucks...

 

[Icebreakers]

Boesers shot makes Virtanens shot look terrible by looking at these clips. His accuracy is on another level. Hopefully Virtanen can get his accuracy back.

kesler and taylor hall have come back from labrum surgery just fine, as have numerous others. watch our 6th overall pick be the guy who can't, haha.

He's got such a weird release on his shot. Doesn't look like it should come off his stick with the weight it does.

 

[fancouver]

McCann's got some sick dangles....

Kesler was hip labrum so not sure I'd bring that in for comparison. On the flip side to Hall was Nugent-Hopkins who didn't come back very strong from his surgery. His numbers were OK and indeed almost identical to this past season but he spent a season being very much a perimeter player who wasn't nearly as effective or engaged.

Everyone is different and not only that not all labrum surgeries are the same.

Hutton looked good, like he has done this before. Noticed his size skating was good, stayed involed

I said it early that Brisebois was who i noticed most out the Dmen, kid can just skate, good stick work seemed to win every stick battle, was good at separating players from the puck. Add that he is 17 we have some thing with him

Being a top D man on a bottom feeding team means he gets lots and lots of practice in the art of defending. Could be a blessing, sort of like back when the Q was a goaltending factory, allegedly on account of their keepers seeing a lot more rubber than their counterparts in other leagues.

That's the one.

Benning has a vision for this team and current contracts simply mean nothing

Anyone knows miller for 6 is a bad contract benning simply doesnt care. Hes drafting a team and his only piece given to him was captian horvat

If anything benning wants to be known league wide as a gm that pays players.

Hopefully ryjo and lucic signing will calm folks down

I don't think Benning sticks that long.

In 16 months benning has drafted a better core than gillis had in 6 years.

Topest of keks

What are you talking about?

Easier drafting in the top 5 than the bottom 5 I would imagine.

EDIT - Definitely didn't read that right. Thought it said in 16 months Benning will have drafted....

Not one NHL game played. This statement is a joke, no ?

You don't remember his shoulder surgery as well?

Feel like the guy putting together this comp must read our Stewart threads, top level trolling. Loving every laugh.

As I recall, Kesler's shooting accuracy really went down when he came back. These surgeries seem to take a while to fully recover from.
This year will be an important one for Virtanen.
Now, hopefully he doesn't get nailed again during prospect camp drills.

I must admit I did not.
