Highly touted D prospect Jack Rathbone is on his way to Vancouver after working out with NHL players all winter in Boston.
Rathbone to take part in his 1st camp with the Canucks
11:48 AM · Dec 8
With an expanded roster, and potential injuries, this young fellow could see some games.
I'm more intrigued by Rathbone as a prospect than even Pod and Hog and I'm pretty optimistic about Pod and Hog. Hughes, Schmidt, and Rathbone on separate pairings would be ridiculously entertaining and a dynamic the franchise hasn't come remotely close to experiencing.

Pays Chatty $125K at the AHL level, up from $70K.
Minimum wage at the NHL level.

Hargraves knows that Chafield is a poor player. He averages about a point every ten games in the AHL. That is horrendous even if the guy was a rock defensively. He’s 25 in the new year. This is as good as it gets.

Hargraves uses common sense to come to the conclusion that Chatfield is not going to be an NHL regular barring a miracle that provides him with hands, hockey sense, a decent shot, the ability to thread the needle with a pass all at age 25. It ain’t happening. 7 or 8 point a year d men in the AHL generally don’t find long term work in the show.

Don't always agree with Doyle's assessments of the Canuck's prospects, but I agree with this. Seems more like affirmative action than signing a blue chip prospect. (Or do they call it a diversity signing now?? Can't remember all the PC stuff)

So, he's a #7/8 D-men? We kinda need some of those guys too.
