So, why change up 3/5 of the PP1?

i agree that Stetcher/Hutton look good.
Stetcher imo definitely belongs on PP1.

Because we have one of the worst PPs in the league

I'd like to see Miller, Hansen, Burrows moved for sure at the TDL. It just makes sense.

Tanev/Edler is not a for sure for me and only if the return is good.

I would not be too quick to hand over the reigns to the youngins on the back end.
They played good for one game.
We have been moving out the old and bringing in youth for the past few years, no need to rush it.

True for UFA's. Also, moving Hansen now frees up spot to protect younger forward like Rodin/Guance/Granlund for expansion draft.

As for D vets only if good return. But they need to explore it.

With you too would be nice to see Burr with Habs for last career run. He's been a favorite for so long and well loved by all. Yes, last couple years full of injury etc were disappointing. But he can end well now. What you think JB can get out of Habs?

They changed part of it. And that worked.
I fail to see how this justifies changing every part of it, no.

Not much.
prospect or pick.
I would hope for a package deal to squeeze some more value.

I am a fan of their passing yes, and that PP where they completely wore down the opposition and then scored a goal is an example of why.

hopefully he picks up the pace there in Fla.
Probably sign another 1 yr contract at seasons end.

There's an upwards trend in all areas for the Canucks. I expect us to start climbing out of the bottom for PP as well. It's time we start looking at that 9 game stretch as a streak and behind us for now.

I don't like Bo on with the Sedins. He would be watching them pass back and forth

Hutton has the most goals on our D. He has made some really nice rushes. He is always put behind Edler on the PP our power play sucked

- VANTEL



He's a better rush and net front option for them. Just wrong shot side why Sutter gets picked. Do you really believe a Sedinless power play would be #1 option at this point?

theyd score more though if they didnt slow down entering the zone and wait for all 10 skaters to get comfy in the zone. Their passing abilities are best used entering zone full speed straight to net and take goalie out with the passing

I agree . I see lots of good things happening right now. Keep rewarding the players with more ice time. Start reducing the vets so that when it is time to go we have their successors

The trades talked about are players that are injured so it's not a tank if the team is competing without them. That would leave moving on UFA's Burr and Miller who will now have value as rentals? I'd say yes for long term reward. Let the youth compete for spots and earn their experience in competing for run. If they fail then higher odds on lotto not a bad place to be for rebuild.

By the way how are the slopes looking in VT?

- Nuck4U



We have not had much snow at all in the lower elevations. The slopes I think are open, but I doubt it is anything too great just yet. Probably another month left

Yeah it worked last nite but what about the last 21 games. The PP needs to be changed up. The 2nd unit needs more time.
