Yes I'd like to see him get some minutes.

As a defenseman, I might add.

Good news about Larsen being released and heading back to Van, surprising that NHLs article said "Desjardins did not rule out Larsen joining the team later on the 5 game roadtrip"
- NorthNuck

They probably meant Hansen, heard he may join the team near the end of this road trip.

Been told the #Canucks have called up defenseman Andrey Pedan, he's on his way to Tampa Bay.

Having taken so long sounds like he is insurance and press box bound. Doesn't WD usually need to see a young guy in practice to judge if he's ready to compete?

Nope, it actually says Larsen.

I don't know what he thinks, I'm not sure anyone does.

Maybe he needed to get his stuff.

Would be nice to see the team ready to play and jump out to a lead tonight. Maybe someone should tell them it's a national broadcast.

I wonder what kind of play we can expect from Biega, gonna have to shake some serious rust off.

Will be interesting to see. Seems more like injured D reduced WD options.

I hope he plays over biega. Put tryamkin back to his favoured side on the right. That's a mean 3rd pairing.

Those lines look better given options. Chaput has shown more feisty play and less creativity which seems better suited in fourth line role.

Yeah. He really didn't get in his conditioning stint when Edler went down. Why I would have thought Pedan better choice just for that. But WD pattern seems on young call ups is to sit them until he sees them in practice.

Fcuking Willie, Chaput should be centring the second line, oh well as long as he is out there for the last 4minutes while we are down by one or two

Think thats a bit bold. I'll go 4-0 Tampa
