Steve Dangle made a really good point. He is ready to send the Canucks a gift basket for this because he hated when DeBrusk played in the playoffs against the Leafs. Jake made things miserable for them, not just with goals but with his overall play. He's a 20 goal scorer now. I can only imagine how he'd be with Pettersson. Someone has to fight for pucks along the boards and behind the net and if they'd gone out and paid Guentzel what he wanted, that wouldn't happen. DeBrusk's skill is puck retrieval as well as finishing.
@@christhornycroft3686neither of them wanted to be in Vancouver. They both signed in Boston to very similar money, zadarov wanted term and Canucks didn’t want to get handcuffed with it
@@larrygill2223so much for Edmonton media and him pricing himself out of Vancouver. I feel a few of our guys were loyal and took discounts to stay with us. Others wanted to get paid
@@TimFry-gr6du well for one that was with a good team! Two he is going to play with that overpaid Swede who did dick in the playoffs, should of paid the big Russian. Cadicks wont even make the playoffs this year, coach and GM will be fired this time next year🤣😂🤣😂
@Anticipat0r eff off with your Petey hate. Petey is one of the best playmakers and already demonstrated 100+ points in the previous season. The only reason why he didn't get 100 this season was because he got stuck with incompetent wingers like Mikheyev and Kuzmenko who couldn't convert his beautiful passes.
@@rrhev bandwagoner alert petey is not one of the best playmakers just look at our powerplay too see how bad he is. there is a reason they go to jt miller on the powerplay and not the overrated petterson cause he cant make plays and he cant protect the puck.
@Anticipat0r you are the real bandwagoner! You're making your assessment on one down year and basically ignoring his 2022-2023 season where he was near the top of the league in points and recognized as a top 10 center in the league. Also in that season, JT Miller was atrociously bad. Take off your recency bias glasses.
It's funny because his father Louie is usually really biased against the Canucks, but now he has to root for us because his son plays for the team. Hahaha
But let's talk about Cindy DeBrusk for a moment. Ooh la la. She served me lemonade after delivering a couch to her house one time. It felt like a Brazzers scene.
I watch Oilers and Canucks (live in edmonton and cheer for vancouver) and Louie is actually one of the few broadcasters who is pretty unbiased and tells it like it is. He praises the canucks a lotttttt. One of the few guys giving the Sedins their flowers when they deserved them.
Tocchet and Louie were good buddies growing up in the league, he knew what he was getting into and I love this pickup. He's going to hit career highs with Pettersson
I feel like he’d be better with Miller than Pettersson, but it will be interesting to see either way. I do wish we got Bertuzzi or Toffoli, but seeing Toffoli get 6 mil per I understand why they passed on him. Bertuzzi made 5.5 mil with Chicago, so same as DeBrusk- both are similar points wise. On the plus DeBrusk is the younger of the two. I do hope Heinen will be a sleeper signing. I think they should pair him with Pettersson and Hoglander to start the season.
@@thedingbatdingers4326 I just don’t think he fit in with Toronto too well. He was great in Detroit for the last couple years there and excelled with the Bruins, they just didn’t have the space to sign him again.
@@LeonExile05 he's too streaky to rely on as a top 6 paid winger. He's got less pressure playing in chicago, seems like thats his style. Recreational leagues.
@@LeonExile05 okay but he performs in the playoffs and had 10 more points than Bertuzzi in playoffs last 2 years...and how many times have vancouver fans called Pettersson streaky?
Have you seen some of the contracts teams were throwing at players today lol lots of overpaid players that were older with the same term, more tidy business for Alvin let's not forget this was his plan B maybe even C after Gunztel and others didn't work out
@@jameskillbot2867 that's fair free agency is where a lot of teams make horrible decisions and we will have to wait and see how it plays out but 5.5 million with the cap expected to continue to rise I feel pretty confident about considering he had the exact same numbers has Lindholm last year and even had 1 more points than him in the same amount of playoff games and he's younger and Lindholm signed for 7.5 at 7 years
@@kianruda3292 You dont sign a guy who is 28 that brings 20 goals and 40 points to term. Those players grow on trees. He wont be good enough defensively to play PK or 4th line so you are banking that he plays at the peak of what he has showed to be his ceiling into his mid 30s when tons of younger and cheaper goal scorers will be coming and going. You dont build a team with players like Debrusk. You fill short term holes and replace him as soon as he gets expensive.
Prediction: 4 Goals in October. 1 Goal in November, 1 Goal in December, 2 Goals in January, 4 Goals in February, 1 Goal in March, 2 goals in April. 15 Goals \ 5,500,000
It's an unconscious way of taking the edge off what you're about to say, an attempt to make it more palatable and less controversial, make it so you don't have to defend it, in that it's not just my opinion, it's "obvious" to everyone. It's a kind of reflexive group-think common to hockey players or anyone involved in a close-knit team environment.
Streaky player. I can't help that Vancouver overpaid. He won't measure up to Tocc's mentality and perception. My take? DeBrusk will be asking for a trade before his second year is through. Sorry, but I've followed him and although he shows up for clutch moments (sometimes), he melts into the background.
Great addition. Vancouver has a really good team.!!
They have but it is stepping up time now
Debrusk sucks 🤣
@@dakitzyou swallow
I have never seen a player from boston be this happy to get out of there 😂
Great addition to our team. A polite, intelligent and well spoken young man !
Vancouver building a room full of characters. Hard to play against

Strong two way play which should free up petterson for more offense
We'll see what Steve think of Zadorov and Lindholm. He might want the basket back.
@@yummysatay we’ll see. They were too expensive. The Canucks couldn’t afford both of them.

Happy to have him 😊
Welcome to the team!!
He know he’s gettin more minutes look how excited he is

Lol yea right!

@@DarthVader-h8m I’ll give ya a hint, I hope Jake DeBrusk rocks it!
Massive upgrade, no hate on Lindholm but Debrusk will be lethal on the power play
He looks so young! Love it!!!
Jake should be a 30-35 goal scorer playing with Pettersson and getting some more power play time.
lol pette4rson cant carry himself let alone another human being. if he plays with jt he gets 40 goals.
I hear this every year. Will believe it when I see it

Right on Jake Play hard have fun 🏒
He should fit the Tocchet system easily and (hopefully) be a finisher for Petey

Very excited too see how this turns out.
Not sad at all. You wanted out, you got it.
Sorry to see you go Jake you were my favorite Bruin
Good player for the Canucks at last a bona-fide shut down guy😊Cheers Thanks. Welcome aboard ❤
Let's go!!
Sweeney is destroying Bruins.
Nah Lindholm and Zadorov will make the Bruins better unfortunately
Very aggressive eh.. had to pay 300k plus over the next team arg.
300k lol thats nothing if you cant win because of 300k you were never going to win

I'm going to forecast that he will break his goals/per/season.
Sweeney needs to be fired for letting this happen!
Never hit 30 goals in his life, Petey better step it up or else JD is just a worse Connor garland
Some of the most shallow analysis I’ve ever seen. Garland was incredible and there’s more to life than the G column.
Is he is jail??
Yes
No open your eyes
😂
@@williezanon8373 tis a joke sir
I dunno. Id rather have Skinner at 3m for only one year I think.
then who do u sign after his contract is up? this is nice him and petey or millsy can grow their chemistry for the next 7 years

Soft player…….hope this works out for Canuck fans!
Why do people say "obviously" SO often?
It's such a useless word!
You're stating the obvious
I know right, obviously they’re using it too much and should stop.
obviously it's a staple word for hockey interviews. I got drunk off this game, drink every time Bo Horvat said Obviously.
