Is it true Baldinelli had his choice to play in the OHL this year or is this just a rumour. I like how this kid is coming around, playing with alot more intensity and grit! If this keeps up baldinelli could be in for a 15-20 goal season.
Am i asking too much?

[anon]

baldinelli did impress this weekend at the tournament, even though he didnt score, he still look like an improvment from last year. caliguri also looked great, he scored a beautiful goal against new york

[falls fan 2]

yes nick caliguri will have a great year,this year and terry should keep him off of a line with baldinelli,nick will do great with that new kidcourtney,he is a good player also,and should put stewart on that line also and they will all do go i think nick will get 15-20 goals this yer a baldinelli will gwtt 5-10 this year so the canucks will have a good run this year,nick paid his dews lasyt year by not being in the lineup all the time when he should have been and baildinelli snould have a 4 rookies should have been in and out like 1 in 4 games ,canacks all the way

[anon]

your dreaming

[anon]

i think everyone shold stop bashing caliguri, he looks really good out there, just give the kid a chance to play, hes only 16 years oold

[guest]

jealous,jealous, jealous

[anon 2]

Well anon ..stop talking about him yourself and lets see how he does when the season stars..And i believe he is 17 or will be soon..

[falls fan 2]

i know nick and i you had him on your team you would not be bashing him i think if your are 16 and playing jr.b that is great,anon so what team are you from,and nick will have a great year,and fazio will not be as good as you think he will because he will not be playing for the hawks they will sent him to st.kitts,because he take to dum p.im and he will not fight,i know nick will fight in the g.h.l if he has to but he will get 20 goals this year he will play a lot more then you think he, he is a great kid

[AnOn]

falls fan 2...nick will get nowhere near 20 goals...i'd say 5-10 goals at VERY MAX.! Theres no way he will put nick with courtney n stewart....well maybe courtney cuz he should be 4th line with caligiuri....but defiently not stewart...he'll be up on first line..first two lines are pretty much decided:

Mckeowan....sartor.....stewart
Mcfadden.....ty raine...heyward (this is definetly gunna be a line...talked to a couple and they all have played on a line together before.....that is two strong lines)

then you got ludzik..baldi...candaloro....caliguri....courtney and bolton left...make the other lines from them....lol

wut do ya think of terrys first two lines tho ?

[falls fan 2]

good

[NFr]

Now that you have the forwards all figured out, what the line up on defense.

[shapin up the team]

canucks picked up aaron lewicki from the barrie colts , was at their camp today, with the amount of good forwards the canucks have they'll be a very potent offensive team now if they can just add some D to the mix.

[falls fan2]

:ocool,his he a d man or a winger how big his he

[NFr]

They might have to do what they did last year. Abundance of forwards and a slow defence, so convert a poised playmaker who can move the puck up the ice and fire it to D.

[anon]

AnOn, if you knew anything or watched the tournament you would have seen macfadden with ludzik and not with hayward and raine.

[canucks]

The steward guy is it the same guy that played for jr.c riverhawks.Jesse Stewart #3 29 games 0 goals 2 assista 2 pts. Looks like this guy is battling for a spot on the team.

[Falls Fan]

he's also the same 17 year old kid who went and skated in Tier II last year after chippawa's year was done and the same kid who was going to play Tier II this year up north but came back to play for the Canucks who will give him a chance too show what he can do unlike what happened to the poor kid in chippawa last year, I've watched all the canucks exhibition games and the kid has about 7 points in his 3 games he's played so far, couldn't play much of the tourney except for the st.kitts game when he had 2 or 3 points because he got his nose broken the following game. and also he was chippawa's youngest player when he was there last year, don't knock the kid before he is even given a chance to show what he can do, he has been great in camp since day 1, masterson has him with sartor and courtney on a line so he's gotta be a decent player for masterson to give him a spot like that.

[NF and Chip Fan]

i've really liked what i've seen from that stewart kid so far, had a good one punch on that kid from fort erie earlier in the exhibition games as well, pretty good skater as well, fairly tough kid too got a broken nose and was out skating tonight at the canucks practise. the canucks have a good core of younger players like baldinelli, stewart, candeloro, caliguiri, scaringi they are gonna be a good team for years to come. I go to a lot of chippawa games as well and if you had seen any of their games you would of seen that the kid was never given a chance by the coaching staff last year and instead double shifted their first 2 lines every game he was also their youngest player as well, i think the kid will be quite a good player in the horseshoe just give him a chance, has looked very good so far since coming back from tier II and as well as baldinelli he is lookin real good sicne returning from guelph's camp too, the canucks have a good mix of older vets and good young guys trying to make a splash should be an exciting season. Chip will probably have some good young players next year to further their development as well such as JT Macdonald and Paul Whidden they'll fit in great in Chippawa.

[Falls Fan 3]

where do you think lazich rorison pieterangelo and a whole bunch of other canucks current and former players who have moved on once played for ? yes thats right Chippawa the canucks farm team. whats the big deal if the kid played there for a bit , if he is good enough to play for the canucks there is a reason he played his way into his spot, leave the kid alone lets see how he turns out for the canucks.

[hawks]

i believe miller from the hawks also was in a riverhawks uniform for a bit. C hockey isn;t all that bad. a lot of good hockey players played c.

[observer]

some of the better players went to jonior c because their fathers didnt have enough connections to keep the kid in niagara falls.

[fan fav]

I think that Courtney should be on the first line with sartor. Courtney and sartoe r two of the best players out there u need someone like Courtney out there he can put the ouck in the net and he can hit and he is not one of those players afraid to hit like everyone in the league.

[wow]

No way Port Hope would of taken Stewart, remember there a good team. No goals in jr.c?

[fan 1]

by the way port hope is JR A and courtney is way better he also played in that league scored more goals then stewart also was on the first line.

[Canucks rule]

Its sounds like NF is good at recruiting players. How do they do it ?

[Left Overs]

They get first choice of all the players that Thorold and St. Catharines don't want. And you better believe it.

[all the way to all ontarios]

who made the canucks this year as 16 years olds,and who is on the opening day roster,hope terry picked some right players this year,who was cut bye the canucks this year,who will be in net this year. LETS GO AND KICK HAWKS (edit) THIS YEAR<

[The Doc]

Sounds like somebody had a little to much sugar today.

[Missy]

I wouldn't worry about the Hawks just yet, looks like Fort Erie has your number. They already beat NF and took them to 2nd OT in the tourney. They are the team that might surprise everyone.

[anon]

we will see on friday.....the canucks open the season at home against fort, should be a good game to watch. the canucks are gunna score lots of goals this year
