Hey, Vic; You see how the polite big man helped that Ranger man up when he was down? What a guy!
Been three years. Forgot how "developed" the big Russian was! Holy shit!
Great video. I shake my head and wonder what videos he had to watch>>>
Goldy or not, He will return.

23-year-old free agent defenseman Oliwer Kaski has been the best player in the Finnish Liiga this season,
and he's expected to have a bunch of NHL offers waiting for him after the season.
https://dobberprospects.com/player/oliwer-kaski/
Offensive defenseman with great size at 6'3. Loves to join the rush and create offense. Has a great shot and likes to use it frequently. Needs to work on his defensive game and avoid unnecessary risks.
I expect the Canucks to table an offer him, sucks defensively but is a highly skilled right shot QB, he started playing as a forward but switched to defense after.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

That would be the logical move.

In odd news, Oliwer Kaski last's RT's on twitter was a Canucks signing. let the speculation begin!

More like a Triple Big Mac combo with a couple extra sides of gravy, donuts for buns, extra cheese and extra grease to fly down that flabby gullet. Then he wipes his filthy mitts in his thinning skullet.

Development can be a strange situation. This guy just woke up and went nuts. Every once in a blue moon,
this happens. In particular, defense men.

The Hockey Writers;
JEFF SKINNER, LW, 27
2018-19 cap hit: $5,725,000

What a year he’s having. There’s a case to be made for slotting him higher, but his supernova goal production is obviously tied to his chemistry with Jack Eichel, whereas the names above him have shown more of an ability to carry their teams on their own. Still, Skinner will end up R.I.C.H. if he keeps up his pace, and he’d be crazy not to re-sign with the Sabres.
If a way could be found to move Eriksson, or Sutter for that matter, but preferably LE, and though I generally loathe the pricey FA
market, I could, maybe, be talked into to at least look at him and see what it would take. As much as we need defense, we also need to be able
to put out two scoring lines and as much as we've tried all sorts of combinations, we come up one major talent short.
With the exception of 12/13, his attendance is excellent.

Dhaliwal said Canucks not in the Nico Sturm list.

In other NCAA news, hearing Habs are now out on St. Cloud State's Jimmy Schuldt.

Jimbo signed a couple of guys today, from Quinnipiac RHD Brogan Rafferty and from Clarkson goalie Jake Kielly. Both will bring depth but unlikely we will see them on the big team, barring a major improvement.

Still, free depth works for me.
