Who knows maybe we draft his d partner on the Thunderbirds. They seem to be able to lock it down pretty good at the W level.
Confirmed with Link: Tyrel Bauer 3 year elc
- Thread starter gojetsgo
- Start date
My only gripe with this kind of signing is you can find a myriad of these types of guys already lifers in the AHL and lower who can beat the doors off people and play a little bit of a defensive hockey. Heck I played with like 5 guys growing up who are no different than this kid and are all 4th line/3rd pairing farm hockey lifers.
I'm not sure we really needed to waste a draft pick on the kind of player that is a dime a dozen. We could have just waited it out and tried signing him when he graduated.
I see where you're coming from, but you never really know how these guys will develop after a few years. The Jets could have really liked him for all his physical tools and fighting prowess, and also saw room for growth in other areas of his game. A combination like that is probably worth a shot in the later rounds

Jets talk starts at 2 min 5 sec.
Turned on the game (Seattle vs Edmonton) to watch Bauer and Guenther. Guenther is not playing (?) and Bauer gets a game misconduct 5 minutes in.

I tend to agree that his chances of playing on the Jets one day are slim. Interesting to note that his production in Juniors was better than Ben Chairot in their draft years. Just like Benny you drop a player like this in the ECHL AHL for 4 or 5 seasons and see what happens.

It's not Bauer's fault, he ran right into him! hehehe
Why is an Oilers fan perusing this thread on our board, of all threads? 
As for the hit, I don’t think it was that bad. A collision between too players with a very bad end-result, but nothing malicious there. Certainly isn’t worse than Sourdif’s hit (and wasn’t really a hit so much as it was a tackle, though) on Savoie.

Yeah, I think the best we can realistically hope for out of him is he becomes an everyday AHLer. But his draft position makes it no biggie and there’s no harm in signing him and seeing if he develops at the pro level.

I watched game 3 and I wasn't overly impressed with Bauer. He stopped one play by being big that I remember, he had a PK goal go between his skate and stick, on a no look play that sealed the fate. Seems like he's the kind of guy that players with good edges should dance at the pro level.
If you can kill penalties in the NHL, special teams are so important now, there's a chance for you. That was Benny's chance. I like the comparison.

It was totally predatory. Bauer did it on purpose. Seen him, lined him up and shoulders into him. Pretty sad. Probably get extra discipline.
Your opinion is terrible. Both guys looking at the puck in the far corner and they collide but Bauer sees him and braces at the last second and the other guy didn't. Unfortunate but I think to be predatory you'd need to actually move with an intent to hit the person. Bauer is essentially standing still and to Oil King skates into him.
In fact, if the Edmonton player wasn't injured I would be arguing that it should have been an interference penalty on them as they were picking the D so he couldn't get to the net front.
I'm not a Jets fan so i'll tread carefully on your board.. Bauer sees him coming and leans into a guy that is standing straight up. and not looking at him.. completely unsuspecting. Didn't go running around looking for it but certainly made the most of the opportunity to lay him out... 5 and a game deserved. Supplemental possible.
Is this even a discussion if the Edmonton player gets back up? No, not at all.
This is what happens when you punish plays on the end-result/optics instead of the actual play.
This was a collision between two players and if the Oil King gets back up there then nothing is called.
Bauer is a nothing prospect for us for the most part but I fail to see anything predatory there at all.

He wasn't standing straight up, he was turning while looking at the corner and not to his left. Bauer does see him coming and extends his arm out as the player collides with him, but the Edmonton player was not standing straight up - it looks like he realized last second he was about to run into Bauer and tried to maybe alter his course?

Yup. It’s not Bauer’s fault the guy had no idea where he was and he ran right into a brick wall. And now Bauer got 2 games for it. Seattle fans are not happy.
That’s embarrassingly bad for the WHL. The ICE lost Pederson for a game for nothing but Sourdif took out Savoie with a high hit and got nothing. Makes you wonder.

Yup. We lost one of top six guys in rybanski to a questionable hit.
Plus the birds only had 2 games at home due to a scheduling conflict. So we’re all in a piss poor mood
I heard about the “scheduling mishap.” That’s pretty egregious for a league final. Was there really no way around it?

Not Bauer related, but I am curious what you guys are hearing about Chaz Lucius. Is he going to juniors? Seattle has his brother, Cruz who just decommited from univ of Minnesota
Apparently the home arena had high school
Graduations set up. But with all the junior rinks with in 2-3 hour drives and they couldn’t find one? Yeah disappointing

From what I remember on our board I think the speculation was he was almost certainly going to junior next year.

That would be a fun family rivalry as Portland and Seattle are bitter rivals.
