Cinnamon buns are already. If you can find my place through the blowing snow and 50 km winds you can have one. Bring your snow shoes. See if you can find a dog sled.

I don't blame you, probably napping for most of the time.

I honestly think the Comets are underachieving so far. It has had a few good stories with Goldy Demko and Holm but the rest is meh

Boeser, Molino, Goldobin. 3 not 5. I apologize immensely your honor. You know because the cupboard was stocked last season with so many great prospects. We had a lot of prospects playing in better leagues last season and so many great prospects in the AHL last season that played so well.

I hope you can understand the sarcasm in my post.

I know that you have issues with me sarcasm or not, and I’m ok with that, really.

My point was to the other guy that has been APITA lately, and he made a post and I responded.

It comes down to the vets and how good they are. At what stage the youth is. 6 rookies according to AHL.com which doesn't include Rodin or Holm. I don't know what they consider to be a rookie. The team wasn't very good last year either. Maybe next year with a lot of returning players and a few more better kids added.

I think it comes down to talent level . No high end talent. Goldy and Boucher are doing fine and MacEwen just okay .Chatfield has been better but still finding his game. The rest of the team is not that good

No I come from the old school of draft and develop, not the screaming hysterical fans play so and so now, of 1040 you seem to be.
- Makita

lol you actually come off as a 1040 fan.... but then again you said you don't listen to them or main stream media so how would you know. Or is that another deception and twist of realitY....don't worry your secrets are safe I won't spill.

I don't have an issue with anyone here. I never will. I'm not the type of person to worry about what someone on the internet.

The fact is he talked about putting players in after the TDL and as you said "get them in right now".

Then all of a sudden because they got a few nhl games after the TDL, it turned into screwing up development. The players he listed are not playing in the CHL. Most of them are playing against older better players and are doing really well. Literally the 4 players he listed are in the top 10 scoring in the leagues they currently play.

3 players played in games after the TDL and only 1 made the team the next season. Did we ruin Goldy by playing him in some NHL games? There is literally no problem bringing in young players that are showing potential to see if they can hold their own in the NHL after the TDL.

A 3rd round pick is the highest pick that van has drafted on that team. (Brisebois). The rest of the team is undrafted basically.

The team is going to take time. Maybe next year.

Demko is a second rounder. Forgot about him

Yup thanks for your post. Enjoy the evening.

Those factors can develop a player the proper way, not like what has happened to Hutton and Stecher.

Thank goodness your not the GM you would have Goldobin and Rodin playing NHL now.

Sound familiar.
- Makita

lol that's not what I have posted about them playing now and yet you label falsely for a narrative that is in your mind. Only poster complaining about Goldy not playing to start the season was Lefty. Yet you believe he is about draft and development and I am not. That is the sad part how you can't get beyond your bias to see things objectively.

FYI Stecher was sent to the AHL but called up because of lack of depth and injuries. Hutton earned a spot among a vet group and stuck around because he was a puck mover and they were old school players.

And here it is again, let’s get these guys in now, screw proper development, JV is being developed properly after Benning screwed up with him and McCann

Lol. You didn't read the post properly to understand that was an evaluation measure only.

I wasn't including Demko either. A lot of Comets are waiver pick ups and busts

I am not complaining I keep my eye on Goldobin mostly MacEwen Holm and Demko

Rodin I have officially given up on

I traded away too many guys and and used up my four moves for the week, I'm short-handed for the rest of the week, advantage Vantel

Well said. The Canucks certainly have stretched out avenues on how to balance development in placing their prospects.

fans can be fickle and I don't take things personally like you seem too.

Are you happy about the rebuild and pending doom of the team?
