Jake is 6 weeks older than Gaudette.
Gaudette is not an nhl centre.
I hope both Jake and Gaudette are casualties, this off-season.

I agree .

Make a serious offer for Danault - re-sign him 3 yrs 3.5 and you have your top 3 centers for four more years.

Move Sutter to 4C for his final year . Buy out Beagle of his two remaining years. Move Jake and Gauds and you pretty well cleared out the bottom 6 that everyone hated.

He gets pushed off the puck way to easy, he is bad defensively and bad on face offs.

I would like him moved to RW and get a centre. Move Pearson to 3LW and player Hogger with Bo and either Toffoli(if resigned) or Boeser.

Another player with suspect skating (Gaudette), great shot but just can’t get there at 5 on 5. The make-up of this team needs tweaking for sure, our bottom six is one of the worst in the league 5 on 5, they’re slow and they’re not heavy enough.

Seems, i'm still logged in on Wfie's laptop. This place is still a poop show because of a select few but if anyone is interested.

DAZN sports is $20 a month or I think it was $150 for the year. You can watch a real sport in Soccer amongst the NFL and other sporting events but also it seems they play SKA games. Seen Podkolzin plays 3 games so far this year including the one going on right now.

When I signed up in July they had a one month free trial.

Bye again.

Robin Lehner says the report that he has agreed to a contract extension with the Golden Knights is "not true."

"Nothing has been finalized. It's kind of annoying. We're here in the conference final, and people are saying things they don't know."

Gaudette needs more time.

JV can go.

Keep Sutter/Beags for next years PO run.

It is abnormal for extensions to be announced during the playoffs and players generally don't want these type of headlines and attention when their team is still competing. I understand his frustration, it probably never should have been reported

Tyler Toffoli said he'd joke in the bubble that Bo Horvat is 35 years old.

October 9th is the start of free agency I believe, four weeks exactly.

It was reported on ‘The Score‘ that the deal was agreed to in June but won’t be signed until after the season, which is why they’ve been playing Lehner as their #1 guy.

Since the 2011-12 season. Can you tell me the single person that has a higher PPG average than Gaudette did this season playing under 15 minutes a game? (41 games plus in a season because who cares about Gaunce and his single game) There's only 1 player, shouldn't be too hard. I mean there's only one player who has scored in VAn's bottom 6 in the past 10 seasons. Can't be that hard to find secondary scoring forward.

Let's extend the challenge the person that's ahead of Virtanen's who's 4th on that list.

4th and 7th on the team at 5v5 scoring but yet 8th and 12th on the team in 5v5 ice time.

Players that played under 14 minutes a game in the league this season on average per game. Guess who's 1st and 2nd in scoring. You guessed it. Vans entire secondary scoring.

Now it's not all about scoring. I mean they did get shut out 3 times. They won face-offs. They won a lot of face-offs. Might have sucked the offence out of Virtanen and Gaudette but they had guys that helped them win face offs.

Sutter had 20 hits in 17 games playing 14 minutes a night.
Gaudette 16 hits in 10 games playing 10 minutes a night.

The problem is, almost 40% of his 33 points in the regular season came on the PP. The team needs to be better, faster and heavier in its bottom six.

Canucks had one secondary assist on an empty net goal from their third line the entire seven game series vs Vegas, it’s an issue come playoff time.

40% of 36 points with 27 of his points coming at 5v5.

You excel at math I see.

You're talking Gaudette. Which still 12 out of 33 is not 40%
