I figure we don't need to bother with players in the alumni section, since the value there is mostly just the history of the conversations.

-AJ- Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 I was just going through the names in the two sections and seeing if they already existed here on the CFF or not: https://forum.canucks.com/forum/73-current-roster/ https://forum.canucks.com/forum/34-prospects-farm-team/ Some names get sort of mixed between current roster and prospects, so it's good to check both to see if they're already here.

Rick_theRyper Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 I wanna see Podz win a big spot on this team he's a heavy skater And can contribute 15+ goals in 82. Lest see Podkolzin Miller Boeser (Line 2) Good heavy semi fast line, one elite shooter two good shooters and good puck movers/ retrieving abilities.

cripplereh Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 I think Podz has a lot more to give. Can't wait for him to light it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip The Mesh Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 It's not all that long ago, Podkolzin was turning into that power forward they thought he would be. I know he wasn't intimidated by the hard-nose play he was beginning to get in on, but I will say this; When the Canucks acquired Kuzmenko and Mikheev, his attitude changed. I thought. Hard to know what's running through someone's head, in particular, when they're a foreigner. I hope he can get over whatever confidence problems he has been acquiring.

The team is devoted to figure this out with Podz. Dhaliwal thinks he will go down to Abbotsford and have Colliton and the Sedins rebuild his game again. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are 2 games into the pre-season, everyone needs to relax, the first game everyone was bad yet Podz gets piled on. This market gave Jake Virtanen chance after chance because he was a 'local boy' despite coming into camp out of shape every year & not taking his career seriously. Podz on the other-hand works his butt off 24/7, has been more productive than Virtanen at the same age (with less games/opportunities), yet everyone is ready to write him off. He just turned 22 a few months ago & he's already a capable bottom 6 NHLer, let's have some patience here. 1 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just turned 22 a few months ago & he's already a capable bottom 6 NHLer, let's have some patience here. I really don't see it as "22 is early" but rather see it as "22 is late." Podkolzin hasn't lived up to his draft pedigree and the doors are closing. He's in his adult body and should be in his adult brain. I also don't see it as "the market gave" Jake a chance and rather see it as the organization gave him a chance against what was sensible. Vasili has yet to show that he's a capable bottom-6er also. I definitely wish the best for Podz but he's not showing much and is well past his draft year. I remember watching the draft with a Habs-fan friend of mine and saying that I would like either Podkolzin or Caufield for the Canucks. I was so close yet so far.

Diamonds Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Podkolzin was on my do not draft list at #10 in 2019 (personally was really hoping Cozens would fall) almost solely based on not seeing the offensive potential for him to be ranked as high as he was. That being said, I think he's had a great attitude and has shown willingness to work on his game. It certainly spoke highly of Podkolzin's character when Larionov named him captain of the U20 team. I still see Dustin Brown as his potential ceiling but even if he caps out at a defensively responsible and physical 3rd liner that isn't the worst thing for a 10th overall pick. I also think Tocchet is working on trying to get him to play a slightly different game and partially due to the language barrier it's causing Podkolzin to play a little more tentatively while he figures it out.

I remember watching the draft with a Habs-fan friend of mine and saying that I would like either Podkolzin or Caufield for the Canucks. I was so close yet so far. I disagree completely, 22 isn't late at all. Hockey players are human beings - no human is in their adult brain at 22 y/o. And I again disagree with the bolded, Vasili is definitely a capable bottom 6-er, he pays attention to detail & intentionally focuses on not cheating / devoting himself to the defensive game. Even against Seattle he has his moments in the D zone of flipping the puck on a dime to make sure it clears the D-zone, and winning his battle on the wall & getting the puck out. These are the defensive details Tocchet is looking for. His problem isn't defense or details, its having the confidence to apply himself offensively. He's already in a mans body yes, but his confidence is very much that of an early 20 y/o, he may not be a top line player but he has plenty of upside to help a winning team. I think he'll be a bit of a late bloomer (reaching his prime at 24-25+ lets say) but with his work ethic he'll be a useful player. Giving up on him now would be a mistake imo. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herberts Vasiljevs Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 I think Podz is a late-bloomer. In 4 years from now he'll be 26, and I cannot wait to see what his player profile will look like then! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herberts Vasiljevs Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 And let's cut it with the comparing Podkolzin to Virtanen crap. Podz is at least adored by his teammates, whereas Virt's teammates thought he was a sack of shit. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
higgyfan Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Lots of fans have (justifiably) addressed their concerns about Podkolzin's struggles at training camp lately and now he is joining Abby for the time being. Here's an interesting article addressing Podz' disappointing development and what may be the cause; as well as future projection. https://www.msn.com/en-ca/sports/nhl/why-vasily-podkolzin-starting-the-season-with-the-ahl-canucks-is-the-best-thing-for-his-development/ar-AA1hm7Q5 He truly is a fan favourite and has a huge support base cheering for him. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
