I have gotten into it with him on a few occasions talking about his obscure stats. I told him one night he will be reporting how many time a guy farts on the plane

Totally agree...and prefer some of them to earn their way on to Canucks if the roster spots are realistically open.

I'm pretty confident they will, though "when" is less certain. Like most fans, I'd prefer sooner (I'm like Vantel in being more than tired of the plodding pace of the cycle), but it could be another couple of years for EP, JD & AG (among others) be ready.

I guess to dumb asses it would seem that way. I am saying I don't want that to happen but when they do I am not going to rant.

Helps that EP is already playing against men. It helps that Dahlen is playing against weaker men but is boosted by EP.

Take the name out of the equation . They are on pace this year for 40 pts. Next year with the additional players their TOI would be reduced again. So figure on 35 points each. THat is third line productivity.

Pay them as third liners and give them third line minutes , let Bo and Brock take leadership and introduce EP and Gaudette.

Paying 5 mil each is stupid but if you are looking at 3.5 mil each then I would put my personal thoughts aside.

I'd be fine not paying them. But your analysis has merit.

This Team Canada vs U-Sports junior game isn't all that promising. Nobody looking all that great so far. Dipietro let in 1 goal on 11 shots and U-Sports is leading 1-0 after 2 periods

Second that above. Plus Gaudette with 20 something year olds has its physical challenges too. They with Goldy will be the most ready to earn a roster spot next season.

But even if they all start on Comets with OJ, Lind and Gadjo they'll be in line to stick on a call up.
