June 17, 20169 yr comment_201284 Not according to Bauming. Says the club told him none of those guys are going to the PR.
June 17, 20169 yr comment_201285 None of them are - I would imagine Butcher will be on our negotiation list and head back to school, while the others will be see ya later alligator.
June 17, 20169 yr comment_201289 Yup. None are. Butcher back to school makes sense. The Other guys, really... they are easily replaceable players, can get those types of guys every draft pretty much. Looks like a guy like Inzandt might be PR bound tho, they haven't cut him yet and i would assume he's going to the PR tho. Gotta wonder if they might look at other teams cuts, a guy like Lawlor out of Montreal very well could be on their radar for a PR spot. Edited June 17, 20169 yr by Goalie
June 17, 20169 yr comment_201299 Rush seemed to have a hustle on a few plays that I did notice him in. So no Butcher jokes for this season I hope Flanders at least makes the club....

June 17, 20169 yr comment_201334 CIS rules are complex, but basically they boil down to a player having a 7 year window when the graduate high school. They can play 5 years in total within that window. So, a player out of High School can play CJFL (Rifles) for 2 years without using up any CIS eligibility. That's why you see so many players go to the CJFL out of high school, it gives them the chance to develop and then shop the CIS schools with a higher level of training.
June 17, 20169 yr comment_201342 Rush is working on long snapping too. I bet he ends up bouncing around for a few years if he wants to.
June 17, 20169 yr comment_201345 its a tough spot for young ish canadians who cant go back to cis, and arent going to make a cfl squad. I hope rush catches on some place.

I think he could be a limited use STer right now, but he could be soo much more next year. Pav not being on the pr tells me they are gonna keep / hide sergio for a while. But I dont think he's going to be more then a phone call way. Rush i wish was kept around. Thought he'd be good as a ster too.
June 17, 20169 yr comment_201355 Rush and Butcher I thought would be on the PR. It makes sense Butcher going back to school though. I do hope we neg list him so nobody nabs him.

I was kind of thinking he might be pr/teams guy this year too. But im not dissapointed to see him playing another year in the cis itll make him a lot better then teams/pr.
June 17, 20169 yr comment_201367 Serious question, did Butcher actually shine in camp or did he just make a good play in that one game and come with a huge body so people are turning him into this beast man?

This one time, in training camp, Rupert Butcher had to be blocked by all five guys on the OL. This one time, in training camp, Rupert Butcher singled handled ran over all 7 blockers, strip sacked the QB, ran it back for a TD and kicked the extra point.

He showed great push up the middle and exceptional burst despite his weight. Hes raw, very raw. But he's got a very high level of physical tool set thats very desirable especially in a ni. 3 minutes ago, Throw Long Bannatyne said: Can that be done seamlessly so that no sticky fingers nab him? They have to have some processing time some one could nab him. But its one of those un written football things. I dont think there is a risk of some one grabbing him and him decided to go to a PR and not back to school.
June 18, 20169 yr comment_201406 I thought during the times Butcher was on the field, he did well, especially considering his inexperience at the pro level. Big, mean, strong Canucks are pretty rare and I wouldn't be surprised to see him again and soon. Edited June 18, 20169 yr by tracker
June 18, 20169 yr comment_201411 I wonder what if any thing we might be looking for from the scrap heap of other teams. NI ol maybe? Perhaps a wr for the PR to push some guys we have.
June 18, 20169 yr comment_201413 Sucks for Alex Vitt that he could never get healthy. I think he would've had a decent chance at making the team.

Yes especially with the injury to Richards. As it stands I guess Kris Bastien is going to make the team again unless they choose to only have 2 Canadian receivers on the roster.
