Sven is talented but he needs good players with him to be effective. Without Horvat and Boeser he struggled offensively. He's not an offensive driver but a good compliementary player.

Lol for sure, sadly Goblin is useless at the NHL level. Sven also never had the luxury of playing with Reid Boucher in the AHL. Sven carried the Comets. Sven is producing at a legit top 6 level and Bo isn’t a great distributor. Sven can produce on his own

Lol I don’t dare. I just found it hilarious when Bullfrog said that any player on the Canucks could produce next to Bo

Imagine if he stays on as president with Holland as GM. The player loyalty will reach new heights.

People think this is a country club right now? They haven't seen poop yet.

Any GM that's worth getting hopefully wont put up with the owner's yes boy looking over his shoulder.

Yeah...he taps in the garbage...picks up the second assists. But does nothing else well. I don't hate him as a player. I just tend to think he's part of the problem for this franchise turning the corner.

I'm actually shocked...backtracked svens ahl stats. His best season was 29 points. Maybe in your world that classifies as dominating... too me , disappointing is the word that comes to mind.
- Bullfrog77

Did you watch him with the Comets? He was by far their best player and with the help of Markstrom he carried them to the finals

Goblin? not a fan. I’m not a huge Sven fan either but it’s nonsense to call the kid junk. He has a lot of skill

Yeah, replace him with someone who does the same thing and weighs 215-225.

With the Sedins coming back, Linden driving the bus and Holland coming onboard (potentially) me and Manvan are getting ready to walk out on this poopshow

- CanuckDon


To an extent, they would all produce, but to say anyone could produce at the same rate is false. Too many scrubs on this team for that to be a true statement.

I never called him junk, I don't think anyone did, he's just not an offensive driver, but talented none the less.

Yes that’s second line pace. Admittedly he is slumping a bit

Yup - Sven has talent. Lacks consistency but he is better than most of the scrubs on this team

I'm just busting Don's balls. I'm not ready to write off Goblin though, but the guy does float a lot, I'm glad Cull has him PK'ing in the AHL. If he can learn that side of the game and go from bad to even just mediocre, his offense will make him a valuable player.

I'm hoping he gets an extended look after a Vanek trade. If he struggles to earn Green's trust when the season is lost, then yeah he's probably not going to be in the team's long-term plans.

Boeser and maybe Horvat are the only true top 6 forwards on this team.
