Popular Post Trebreh Posted October 8, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 8, 2023 Apparently he’s a good pker.. and after 5 mins of scouting (watching YouTube highlights) it seems like he plays with grit and toughness and has better hands than studnicka from what I’ve seen. he’s not much of a fighter but is willing to drop the gloves. I like this addition to our 4 line. 3 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're perpetually destined to go down this path. Hate to say it. It would be a better name than Canucks. But I think Pittsburgh would have a problem with that. Vancouver Kodiaks?

Maybe more injuries than we know of. There's always guys who get hurt in camp, and it's usually the guys we signed during summer to REALLY make us a better team...

The Lock Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 (edited) It does look like Lafferty can play all 3 forward position, so I can see the appeal of flexibility and having a 4th liner who can play. Also, keep in mind the last 5th round pick that actually did something for us was Gaudette, which even getting a player like Gaudette is rare in the 5th round. A 5th is kind of peanuts in the end... although we have had some luck specifically with 5th rounders over the years.

Not sure why you are all complaining I agree. Some guys crying like we gave up a significant pick. We can’t even get our 1st and 2nd round picks to make this team. All of the sudden a 5th rounder is gold….lol Edited October 8, 2023 by Grandmaster 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
